NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) GENERAL
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements of Suffolk Bancorp (Suffolk) and its consolidated
subsidiaries have been prepared to reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of
normally recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
condition and results of operations for the periods presented. Certain
information and footnotes normally included in consolidated financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted. Notwithstanding, management believes that the disclosures
are adequate to prevent the information from misleading the reader, particularly
when the accompanying consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Registrant's annual report and on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31,
1998.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the
remainder of the year.

OTHER INCOME
Other income decreased to $1,465,000 for the three months compared to
$1,913,000 the previous year. Service charges on deposits were down 3.9
percent. Service charges other than for deposits, commissions, and fees
decreased by 56.8 percent. Trust revenue was up 45.2 percent. Other operating
income was down 59.4 percent. More than half of the decline is attributable to
the sale of the merchant services portfolio during the first quarter of 1998.
The portfolio provided revenues which were largely offset by non-interest
expense.
OTHER EXPENSE
Other expense for the first quarter of 1999 was $7,452,000, up 2.8 percent
from $7,250,000 for the comparable period in 1998.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Stockholders' equity totaled $73,008,000 on March 31, 1999, an increase of
1.6 percent from $71,845,000 on December 31, 1998. The ratio of equity to
assets was 8.0 percent at March 31, 1999 and 7.9 percent at December 31, 1998.

CREDIT RISK
Suffolk makes loans based on the best evaluation possible of the
creditworthiness of the borrower. Even with the careful underwriting, some
loans may not be repaid as originally agreed. To provide for this possibility,
Suffolk maintains an allowance for possible loan losses, based on an analysis
of the performance of the loans in its portfolio. The following table presents
information about the allowance for possible loan losses: (in thousands of
dollars except ratios)

MARKET RISK
Suffolk originates and invests in interest-earning assets and solicits
interest-bearing deposit accounts. Suffolk's operations are subject to market
risk resulting from fluctuations in interest rates to the extent that there is a
difference between the amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities that are prepaid, withdrawn, mature, or reprice in any given period
of time. Suffolk's earnings or the net value of its portfolio (the present value
of expected cash flows from liabilities) will change when interest rates change.
The principal objective of Suffolk's asset/liability management program is to
maximize net interest income while keeping risks acceptable. These risks include
both the effect of changes in interest rates, and risks to liquidity. The
program also provides guidance to management in funding Suffolk's investment in
loans and securities. Suffolk's exposure to interest-rate risk has not changed
substantially since December 31, 1998.
READINESS FOR THE YEAR 2000
Suffolk has identified ways in which the year 2000 ("Y2K") may affect its
operations. Following is a summary of its readiness.
1. Suffolk's Readiness.
Suffolk is in the final phase of its evaluation and improvement of its internal
information systems. During the first quarter of 1998, Suffolk converted its
core-processing systems (including loans, deposits, and general ledger) to a
state-of-the-art distributed client-server system which is fully ready for Y2K.
Various accounting subsystems (non-core) have been evaluated, and all
modifications were made by December 15, 1998. As a banking corporation, Suffolk
relies mainly on its information systems to conduct business. Management does
not expect that technology embedded in microprocessors which may not work
properly after the year 2000 to have a material effect on Suffolk's operations
or profitability.
2. Cost to Address Y2K.
Management expects the cost of evaluating and modifying systems in preparation
for the year 2000 to be approximately $40,000 for 1999.
3. Risk of Y2K.
Management at Suffolk believes that it has made provision for its systems to
continue processing information correctly through and beyond the year 2000.
Management has also confirmed, in writing, that key providers of information
have also made proper provision. However, Suffolk has no control over the
readiness of major utilities and communications networks. In the opinion of
management, the failure of such outside services presents the greatest risk to
Suffolk of Y2K problems.
4. Contingency Plan.
As a matter of standard practice, Suffolk maintains a disaster recovery plan
which is reviewed and updated annually. While Suffolk has no means of
accurately measuring risk to the systems of major utilities and communications
networks, its disaster recovery plan assumes that these systems may fail, both
for reasons related to Y2K, as well as for other reasons, and makes provision
for operations to continue without them, albeit with reduced efficiency.
5. Assessment of Suffolk's Readiness.
Suffolk's readiness for Y2K has been and continues to be evaluated by
management. It has been and will continue to be evaluated by its primary
banking regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
