           Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

           (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

               Basis of Presentation

               FNB Rochester Corp. (the Company) operates as a bank holding
               company.  Its only subsidiary is First National Bank of
               Rochester (the Bank).  The consolidated financial statements
               include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
               subsidiary, the Bank.  All material intercompany accounts
               and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

               The financial information is prepared in conformity with
               generally accepted accounting principles and such principles
               are applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in
               the December 31, 1995 Form 10-K Report of the Company filed
               with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The financial
               information included herein has been prepared by management
               without audit by independent certified public accountants.
               The information furnished includes all adjustments and
               accruals, solely of a normal recurring nature, that are in
               the opinion of management necessary for a fair presentation
               of results for the interim period ended June 30, 1996.  
               Amounts in prior periods' financial statements are
               reclassified whenever necessary to conform with current 
               presentation.

          (2)  Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
               and Extinguishments of Liabilities

               SFAS Statement No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and
               Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of
               Liabilities (Statement) was issued in June 1996 and is
               applicable to all entities, both public and non-public.

               This Statement provides accounting and reporting standards
               for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
               extinguishments of liabilities based on a consistent
               application of a financial-components approach that focuses
               on control. It distinguishes transfers of financial assets
               that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowing.

               Under the financial-components approach, after a transfer of
               financial assets, an entity recognizes all financial and
               servicing assets it controls and liabilities it has incurred
               and derecognizes financial assets it no longer controls and
               liabilities that have been extinguished.  The financial-
               components approach focuses on the assets and liabilities
               that exist after the transfer.  Many of these assets and
               liabilities are components of financial assets that existed
               prior to the transfer.  If a transfer does not meet the
               criteria for a sale, the transfer is accounted for as a
               secured borrowing with pledge of collateral.

               The Statement is effective for transfers and servicing of
               financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities occurring
               after December 31, 1996, and is to be applied prospectively. 
               Management has determined that the adoption of this
               Statement will not have a material impact on the Company's
               operating results.

          (3)  Allowance for Loan Losses

               The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
               114 Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan as
               amended by Statement 118, Accounting by Creditors for
               Impairment of a Loan - Income and Disclosure.  These
               statements prescribe recognition criteria for loan
               impairment, generally related to commercial type loans, and
               measurement methods for certain impaired loans and all loans
               whose terms are modified in troubled debt restructuring
               subsequent to the adoption of these statements.  A loan is
               considered impaired when it is probable that the borrower
               will be unable to repay the loan according to the original
               contractual terms of the loan agreement.

               As of January 1, 1995, the Company has adopted the
               provisions of SFAS No. 114 and SFAS 118 and has provided the
               required disclosures.  The effect of adoption was not
               material to the consolidated financial statements.  As of
               January 1, 1995, all of the Company's in substance
               foreclosed assets were reclassified into impaired loan
               status as required by SFAS No. 114.  For all prior periods
               presented, all amounts related to in substance foreclosures
               have also been reclassified.  These reclassifications did
               not impact the Company's consolidated financial condition or
               results of operations.

               As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 114, the allowance
               for loan losses related to impaired loans that are
               identified for evaluation in accordance with SFAS No. 114 is
               based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted
               at the loan's initial effective interest rate, except that
               as a practical expedient, impairment may be measured at the
               loan's observable market price, or the fair value of the
               collateral for certain loans where repayment of the loan is
               expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral
               (collateral dependent loans).  The Company's impaired loans
               are generally collateral dependent.

               The Company considers estimated costs to sell, on a
               discounted basis, when determining the fair value of
               collateral in the measurement of impairment if those costs
               are expected to reduce the cash flows available to repay or
               otherwise satisfy the loans.  Prior to the adoption of SFAS
               No. 114 and 118, the allowance for possible loan losses
               related to these loans was based on estimated undiscounted
               cash flows or the fair value of the collateral, less
               estimated costs to sell for collateral dependent loans.

               Other real estate owned included both formally foreclosed
               and in-substance foreclosed real properties.  In accordance
               with SFAS No. 114, a loan is classified as an in-substance
               foreclosure when the Company has taken possession of the
               collateral regardless of whether formal foreclosure
               proceedings have taken place.  Prior to the adoption of SFAS
               No. 114 and SFAS No. 118, in-substance foreclosed properties
               included those properties where the borrower has little or
               no remaining equity in the property considering its fair
               value, where repayment was only expected to come from the
               operation or sale of the property; and where the borrower
               had effectively abandoned control of the property or it was
               doubtful that the borrower would be able to rebuild equity
               in the property.

               Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months
               ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

               At June 30, 1996, the recorded investment in loans that are
               considered to be impaired under SFAS No. 114 totaled
               $253,000.  The average recorded investments in impaired
               loans during the six months ended June 30, 1996 was
               approximately $245,000.

               Impaired loans are included in non-performing loans,
               generally as non-accrual loans.  Commercial type loans past
               due greater than 90 days and still accruing are generally
               not considered to be impaired as the Company expects to
               collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the
               contractual interest rate for the delinquent period. 

               When a loan is impaired and the future repayment of the
               recorded balance is doubtful, interest payments received are
               applied to principal and no interest income is recognized. 
               If the recorded loan balance is expected to be paid,
               interest income is recognized on a cash basis.

               For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company
               recognized no interest income on the impaired loans.

          (4)  Income per Common Share

               Per share data is based upon the weighted average number of
               common shares outstanding during the year.  Common share
               equivalents (stock options) were not used in the income per
               share calculation for the period ended June 31, 1996 or 1995
               as they dilute earnings per share by less than 3 percent.
               Fully diluted per share data is not applicable.  Because
               common share equivalents (stock options) were used in the
               calculation of first quarter 1996 earnings, the total of the
               first and second quarter earnings per share do not equal the
               year-to-date earnings per share.

          (5)  Stock Option Plans

               The Company has incentive stock option plans under which
               options to acquire 325,000 shares of its common stock were
               available to grant to key employees and options to acquire
               25,000 shares of its common stock were available to grant 
               to directors.  At June 30, 1996, options to purchase 299,100
               shares were held by grantees under the plan.  The range of
               exercise prices of the options is $5.63 to $8.32 per share
               with an average exercise price of $7.02 per share.  At June
               30, 1996, options to acquire 206,100 shares were
               exercisable.  The remaining options become exercisable at
               various times through December 1997.  As of June 30, 1996
               options to acquire 1,850 shares have been exercised.

          (6)  Dividends

               At the March 1992 Board of Director's meeting, the Board
               approved the suspension of the dividend on common stock as
               part of its plan to preserve capital.  No dividends have
               been paid since 1991.

          significant factors which have affected the Company's financial
          position and operating results during the periods included in the
          accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. 
          Management's discussion and analysis supplements management's
          discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 1995
          contained in Company's Form 10-K for the period then ended and
          includes certain known trends, events and uncertainties that are
          reasonably expected to have a material effect on the Company's
          Financial position or operating results.

          Overview

          As in the first quarter of 1996, both loans and deposits have
          continued to grow.  At June 30, 1996 loans totaled $290 million,
          an increase of $36 million, or 14.1% from year end 1995.
          Increases in loans were primarily in commercial loans and
          residential mortgages.  Deposits were $381.3 million which is an
          increase of $23.5 million from year end.  All deposit categories,
          with the exception of NOW accounts, have shown increases year to
          date and all deposit categories have shown increases in the
          second quarter.  NOW accounts declined in the quarter ended
          March 31, 1996 primarily because of a large account moving to
          trust assets.  $12.9 million of the increase has been in
          certificates of deposit and of that amount $4.7 million is in
          certificates of $100,000 or more.  Although $100,000 certificates
          have increased since December 31, 1995 they have declined $2.8
          million since March 31, 1996.  Increases in the number of public
          fund banking relationships in the Company's banking offices
          contributed to the increase in large certificates of deposit. 
          Management has made the decision, on a temporary basis, to fund a
          portion of its loan originations with public fund certificates of
          deposit as a lower interest cost alternative to securities sold
          under agreement to repurchase or other long or short term
          borrowing.  Short term borrowing is being used only to fund very
          short term liquidity needs.  Other liabilities have increased
          from the period ended December 31, 1995 because of a Government
          National Mortgage Association security which was purchased in
          June 1996 for settlement on July 24, 1996.  Non-performing assets
          are up slightly at June 30, 1996 to $2.1 million and .73% of
          total loans and real estate acquired by foreclosure, from .67% at
          year end 1995.  

          Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased
          $478,000, or 37%, to $1,771,000 from $1,293,000 for the same
          period in 1995.  Income per share increased to $.50, up $.14 in
          comparison to $.36 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  For
          the three-month period income was $1,003,000, for an increase of
          $211,000, or 26.6%.  The increase in income for both the three-
          month and six-month periods was primarily due to an increase in
          net interest income.  For the six-month period ended June 30,
          1996, non-interest income increased $208,000, or 16.1%, and non-
          interest expense increased $571,000, or 7.5%.  1996 non-interest
          expense showed increases in salaries and employee benefits and
          occupancy and was partially offset by a decrease in Federal
          Deposit Insurance assessment.

          Net Interest Income

          Net interest income for the six-month period increased $927,000,
          or 11.3%, as compared to the period ended June 30, 1995. 
          Increased small business and residential mortgage lending
          activity funded primarily with deposit growth continues to be the
          Bank's main focus.  The increase in net interest income is
          primarily the result of increased commercial loan and residential
          mortgage loan volumes with offsetting interest expense from
          increased certificate of deposit volumes.   The net interest
          margin  has remained relatively stable through 1995 and the first
          six months of 1996.  During this period the net interest margin
          has been at a high of 4.97% and a low of 4.83%.  While management
          is attempting to maintain interest margins, anticipated increases
          in interest costs of certificates of deposit and other borrowed
          funds may make it increasingly difficult to do so. Interest
          margins may decline in the future months as much of the Bank=s
          funding growth is expected to be in higher-yielding certificates
          of deposit or other borrowed funds, and as the Bank may need
          funding to offset the outflow of deposits from the anticipated
          sale of the Odessa Banking Office (see Sale of Odessa Banking
          Office).

          Increased loan volume caused interest and fees on loans to
          increase $978,000, or 18.4%, for the three-month period ended
          June 30, 1996 and $1,945,000, or 19.1%, for the six-month period
          as compared to the same period in 1995.

          Average commercial loans increased $33 million, or 23.3%, from
          the period ended June 30, 1995 to the period ended June 30, 1996. 
          The increased volume contributed $1,553,000 to income, which was
          partially offset by rate declines that reduced income by
          $457,000.  Average mortgage loans increased $21.7 million, or
          63.8%.  The increase in the mortgage portfolio was primarily made
          up of 15 year fixed rate mortgages.  The rates for mortgages
          being placed in the portfolio in 1996 show little change from
          1995 and the $781,000 increase in interest income was primarily
          caused by the increase in volume. Average home equity loans
          declined $923,000 and income has declined $88,000.  Average
          consumer loans increased $2.4 million, or 13.2%, and the result
          for the period was an increase in interest income of $106,000
          from volume and $50,000 from higher rates.   

          Interest expense increased $648,000, or 11.2%, for the six-month
          period ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the period ended June
          30, 1995.  The savings, NOW, and money market categories of
          deposits have shown a decrease in interest expense of $13,000
          from declining deposit volumes and a decrease of $182,000 from
          decreased rates.  Together, average savings, NOW and money market
          accounts have showed no growth year to date but have increased a
          net total of $4.5 million from the period ended March 31, 1996. 
          Certificates of deposit increased $12.1 million for the three-
          month period and $20.7 million for the six-month period ended
          June 30, 1996 from December 31, 1995.  The Bank's deposit growth 
          in certificates of deposit resulted in $813,000 additional
          interest expense due to increased balances and $130,000 because
          of increased rates.  Average total certificates of deposit have
          increased $38.9 million from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996. 
          During the remainder of this year, much of the Bank's deposit
          growth may be in certificates of deposit. 

          Provision for Loan Losses

          The Bank provides for loan losses by a charge to current
          operations.  The provision is based upon discretionary
          adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to
          bring the allowance to an appropriate level considering the
          character of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions,
          analyses of specific loans, and historical loss experience.

          The Bank had net recoveries of $126,000 for the six-month period
          ended June 30, 1996 as compared to net recoveries of $6,000 for
          the same period in 1995.  Net recoveries (annualized) as a
          percent of average loans were .09% and .01% for the six months
          ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.  The ratios of the allowance for
          possible loan losses as a percent of period end loans for the
          comparable period were 2.03% and 2.49% respectively.  Non
          performing assets declined 38.2% to $2.1 million at June 30, 1996 
          from $3.4 million at June 30, 1995.  Management undertakes a
          quarterly analysis to assess the adequacy of the allowance for
          possible loan losses taking into account non-performing and
          delinquent loans, internally criticized loans, historical trends,
          economic factors, and overall credit administration.  Based on
          this analysis, the allowance is considered adequate at June 30,
          1996 to absorb anticipated losses.  It is anticipated that
          further additions to the allowance will not be necessary in 1996
          unless there are significant changes in the local economy or
          higher than anticipated loan growth.
                            
          Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense

          Non-interest income of $1,500,000 for the first six months of
          1996 represents an increase of $208,000, or 16.1%, from
          $1,292,000 for the comparable period in 1995.  The increase was
          primarily caused by increases in service charges on deposit
          accounts.  Non-interest income for the three-month period ended
          June 30, 1996 increased $91,000, or 13.3%, over the same period
          in 1995.

          Non-interest expense was $8,148,000 for the first six months of
          1996 as compared to $7,577,000 for the comparable period in 1995,
          an increase of $571,000, or 7.5%. The largest components of non-
          interest expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996
          were salaries and employee benefits of $4,513,000 which increased
          $531,000, or 13.3%, from $3,982,000 for the same period in 1995
          and occupancy which increased $388,000, or 30.4%.  Both increases
          were caused primarily by expenses associated with new banking
          offices as well as the addition of personnel to both trust  and
          commercial lending.  The Bank opened three new banking offices in
          1995 and a fourth in 1996 as well as moving an existing office to
          a new facility in January of 1996.  The Town of Greece, NY
          banking office has recently been demolished and a new facility is
          under construction on the site.  Occupancy expense has also
          increased because of technological improvements.  Offsetting the
          increases was a reduction in Federal Deposit Insurance assessment
          of $330,000.  With continued growth and facility upgrades, as
          well as technological improvements, the Bank's operating expenses
          are expected to continue to increase.  

          Provision for Income Taxes

          The provision for income tax was $689,000 for the period ended
          June 30, 1996 as compared to $603,000 at June 30, 1995.  The
          Company's effective tax rates for the periods were 28% and 31.8%
          for 1996 and 1995 respectively.  The decreased effective rate for
          1996 was caused by the Company's ability to recognize deductible
          temporary differences in 1996 for which a valuation allowance had
          previously been established.
           
          Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability
          method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
          the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
          the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
          liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and
          tax credit carry forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities
          are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
          income in the years in which those temporary differences are
          expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax
          assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
          income in the period that includes the enactment date.

          The realization of deductible temporary differences depends on
          the Company having sufficient taxable income within the carry
          back period permitted by the tax law to allow for utilization of
          deductible amounts.  A valuation allowance has been established
          for the portion of the Company's net deductible temporary
          differences which are not expected to be realized.   

          Capital Adequacy

          Total shareholders' equity was $26,902,000 at June 30, 1996,
          which represents an increase of $1,056,000, or 4.1% from
          $25,846,000 at December 31, 1995.  Capital increased primarily
          because of $1,771,000 from earnings and was offset by a decline
          of $726,000 from a decrease in the market value of the available-
          for-sale securities portfolio.

          At June 30, 1996, the Company and its banking subsidiary exceeded
          the minimum guidelines for Tier 1 and Total Risk-Based Capital of
          4% and 8%, respectively.  The Company's ratios were 9.68% and
          10.94% respectively, at June 30, 1996.  Banking organizations
          must also maintain a minimum Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 3% of
          assets.  Banking organizations that are not top-rated according
          to regulators' "Camel" ratings, however must meet leverage ratios
          of at least 100 basis points above the 3% standard.  The
          Company's Tier 1 Leverage Ratio at June 30, 1996 was 6.43%. 

          Liquidity

          Liquidity measures the ability to meet maturing obligations and
          existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit
          levels, to fund operations, and to provide for customers' credit
          needs.  Management carefully monitors its liquidity position and
          seeks to maintain adequate liquidity to meet its needs.  The
          fundamental source of liquidity will continue to be deposits. 
          Available sources of asset liquidity include short-term
          investments, loan repayments, and securities held in the
          available-for-sale portfolio.  Additionally, the Bank has the
          ability to pledge securities to secure short-term borrowing.  The
          Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank which provides an
          additional source of funding.

          The vast majority of the assets of the Company are held by the
          Bank.  Dividends and cash advances to the Company from the Bank
          are subject to standard bank regulatory constraints.  An analysis
          of projected expenses and cash flows indicates that the Company
          has sufficient cash to meet its anticipated cash obligations
          through 1996.

          Sale of Odessa Banking Office

          The Bank signed an agreement on July 10, 1996, with Tompkins
          County Trust Company to sell its Odessa N.Y. Banking Office.  The
          office has customer deposits totaling approximately $10 million
          and the transaction, which is pending regulatory approval, is
          expected to close no later than the fourth quarter of 1996.  The
          Bank anticipates a premium of approximately $500,000 as well as
          realizing a gain of approximately $100,000 on the sale of the
          land, building, certain loans and other assets.  The Odessa
          Office is the only remaining office not located in any of the
          Bank's primary market areas and the sale will allow the Bank to
          refocus its resources.

          Re: Employment Agreement


          Dear Carl:

          The Board of Directors of FNB Rochester Corp. (the "Company") is 
          pleased to offer you an extension of your employment agreement
          with the Company (the "Agreement") covering your services as 
          President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and of First
          National Bank of Rochester.  The term of the Agreement, which was
          originally entered into on June 8, 1992, was previously extended
          to June 30, 1997 by letter agreement dated February 22, 1994. 
          Subject to the terms of this letter and the modifications to the
          Agreement stated herein, the Agreement, which would have expired
          on June 30, 1997, will continue to govern your employment with
          the Company through June 30, 1998 and, as set forth below, shall
          be automatically extended for successive additional one year
          periods to new Agreement expiration dates of June 30, 1999 and
          June 30, 2000, unless either (1) the Board gives you written
          notice of its decision not to so extend the Agreement at least
          one year prior to any applicable Agreement expiration date or (2)
          you give the Board the same written notice of your decision not
          to extend the Agreement. 

          Effective with the 1996 calendar year, you shall be entitled to
          six weeks of vacation per year instead of five weeks of vacation
          per year and Section 6 of the Agreement is modified accordingly.

          All provisions of the Agreement are intended to be consistent
          with and to comply with all applicable laws or regulations
          enacted or promulgated both before and after the execution date
          of this letter, and to the extent that any provision of the
          Agreement is inconsistent or not in compliance with applicable
          laws or regulations, that part which is inconsistent or not in
          compliance shall be deemed void.

          Except as expressly modified by the terms of this letter, the
          Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and may
          not be further modified or amended except in a writing executed
          by you and the Company.  Upon your acceptance of this
          modification to the Agreement, the letter agreement of February
          22, 1994 shall be deemed to be superseded and replaced.  For
          purposes of the Change of Control Employment Agreement among you,
          the Company and First National Bank of Rochester dated as of
          February 1, 1996, the term "Existing Employment Agreement" shall
          hereafter mean the Agreement as extended and modified by this
          letter agreement.

          If you wish to accept this extension and modification of the
          Agreement,  please indicate your acceptance and agreement in the 
          space indicated below and return an executed copy of this letter 
          to the undersigned.

          Very truly yours,


          FNB ROCHESTER CORP.
