The Board of Directors
Commerce National Corporation:


We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Commerce National
Corporation and subsidiary as of June 30, 1996 and the related condensed
consolidated statements of operations for the three month and six month periods
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows
for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.  These condensed
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical review procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which
is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Commerce National Corporation and
subsidiary as of December 31, 1995, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended not
presented herein; and in our report dated January 19, 1996, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance
sheet as of December 31, 1995, is fairly presented, in all material respects, in
relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

        Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

(A)  INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Commerce National Corporation (the Company) have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial information.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,
1996.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1995.

(B)  STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

For purposes of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company
considers cash and due from banks, noninterest bearing deposits in other banks
with original maturities of three months or less, and federal funds sold to be
cash equivalents.

(C)  LONG-LIVED ASSETS

On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Statement of Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of".  This
Statement establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived
assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets
to be disposed of.  It requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable.  It also prescribes the value of these assets to be
disposed be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to
sell.

Adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company.


                                                                     (Continued)

(D)  MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted FASB Statement of Accounting Standards
No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights".  This Statement amends FASB
Statement No. 65, "Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking Activities".  This
Statement requires that a mortgage banking enterprise assess its capitalized
mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of those
rights.

Adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company.

(E)  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted FASB Statement of Accounting Standards

The Company enters into sales of securities under agreements to repurchase
("Agreements"). Fixed-coupon Agreements are treated as financing, and the
obligations to repurchase securities sold are reflected as a liability in the
condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The dollar amount of securities
underlying the Agreements remain in the asset accounts.  At June 30, 1996, all
of the Agreements were to repurchase identical securities.  The assets
underlying the Agreements, were held in safekeeping by a third party.  During
the quarter ended June 30, 1996, Agreements outstanding averaged approximately
$1,621,296 and the maximum amount outstanding during the quarter was $2,026,331.
Total interest expense paid on repurchase Agreements was $19,536 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1996 and $31,592 for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                      Condition and Results of Operations.


The accompanying financial statements of the Company are primarily affected by
the operation of the NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE (the "Bank"), its wholly owned
subsidiary.

The following discussion and analysis presents a review of the Company's
Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operation.  This review should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other
financial data presented herein.

Summary:
- ------- 

     At the end of the second quarter of 1996, the Company had a profit of
$244,340 as compared to a profit of $200,874 for the same period in 1995.  Total
interest expense during the first six months of 1996 increased 35% to $2,111,919
due to the increased flow of new deposits into the Bank during the first six
months of 1996.

     Two indicators which measure profitability are net income as a percentage
of average assets (ROAA) and net income as a percentage of average shareholder
equity (ROAE).  A comparison of these ratios for the first six months of the
last three years is as follows:

Net Interest Income
- -------------------

          Net interest income, the difference between interest earned on
interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing
liabilities, is the most significant component of the Company's earnings. Net
interest income is affected by changes in the volumes and rates of interest-
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the volume of interest-
earning assets funded with interest-bearing deposits, non-interest-bearing
deposits, and stockholders' equity. Net interest income for the first six months
of the last three years is as follows:

- ---------------------------------------------------------
NET INTEREST INCOME    $2,046,990  $1,836,762  $1,501,161
- ---------------------------------------------------------
 
</TABLE>

          Net interest income of $2,046,990 for the second quarter of 1996 was a
11% increase over the same period in 1995, which had a net interest income of
$1,836,762.

          On an annualized basis, the Company's net interest margin was 4.29%
through the second quarter of 1996 compared to 4.58% through the second quarter
of 1995.

          Changes in net interest income from period to period result from
increases or decreases in the average balances of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities, increases or decreases in the average rates earned
and paid on such assets and liabilities, the banks' ability to manage their
earning asset portfolios and the availability of particular sources of funds.

Provision for Possible Loan Losses
- ----------------------------------

          It is the Company's practice to maintain the allowance for loan losses
at a level considered by management to be adequate to provide for reasonably
foreseeable loan losses.  There is no precise method of predicting specific
losses or amounts that ultimately may be charged off on particular segments of
the loan portfolio.  The conclusion that a loan may become uncollectible, in
whole or in part, is a matter of judgment.  Similarly, the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses can be determined only on a judgmental basis, after
full review, including consideration of:

     Borrower's financial data, together with evaluations of industry data,
     competition, the borrower's management capabilities and the underlying
     collateral for secured loans, including, when appropriate, independent
     appraisals of real estate properties, and other factors;
     
     Consumer loan growth trends and delinquency and default rates, together
     with an analysis of past and present repayment performance;
     
     A continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio by management, the Board of
     Directors and consultants; and

                                       18
<PAGE>
 
     Monthly review and evaluation of loans identified as having loss potential.
     If, as a result of such monthly reviews, a loan is judged to be
     uncollectible, the carrying value of the loan is reduced to that portion
     that is considered to be collectible.

          In addition to the continuing internal assessment of the loan
portfolio, the Bank engages an independent, third-party loan review consultant
to review the loan portfolio every six months.  The Bank's loan portfolio is
also subject to examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
("OCC").

          There were nine (9) non-accruing loans totaling $591,284 as of June
30, 1996.  This represents a 64% decline from the March 31, 1996 figure of
$1,639,830.  Five (5) of the nine (9) non-accrual loans, totaling $264,677, are
collateralized with first mortgages, and two loans in the aggregate amount of
$245,874 are collateralized with second mortgages.

          The Company's allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1996 was $854,482,
a 1.12% reserve on total loans outstanding.

Non-Interest Expense
- --------------------

          Operating expenses increased 16% for the six-month period ended June
30, 1996, to $1,887,129 compared with the same period for 1995 which had
operating expenses of $1,631,146.  A large portion of the rise in non-interest
expense is due to increases in staffing and occupancy expense due to two
branches opening in 1995 and one branch opening on January 2, 1996.

Provision for Income Taxes
- --------------------------

          The Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109 (Accounting for Income Taxes, Statement 109) in 1992.  Previously, the
Company used the asset and liability method under the Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 96 (Accounting for Income Taxes, Statement 96).

Liquidity
- ---------

          The liquidity of a banking institution reflects its ability to provide
funds to meet loan requests, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to
take advantage of interest rate market opportunities.  Funding of loan requests,
providing for liability outflows, and management of interest rate fluctuations,
require continuous analysis in order to match the maturities of specific
categories of specific short-term loans and investments with specific types of
deposits and borrowings.  The objective of liquidity management is to maintain a
balance between sources and uses of funds such that the cash flow needs of the
Company are met in the most economical manner.  On the asset side, the Company's

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
liquidity is provided by Federal funds sold, loan principal repayments, and by
investment securities, of which 100% have maturities of five years or less.
Moreover, liquidity is provided by an investment portfolio that is readily
marketable.

          Closely related to the concept of liquidity is the management of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, which focuses on
maintaining stability in the net interest spread, an important factor in
earnings' growth and stability.  The interest rate volatility of recent years
and rate deregulation have significantly affected the way in which banks manage
their business and have highlighted the importance of asset and liability
management.  For the Company, the most important objectives in assets and
liability management include: (1) controlling interest rate exposure, (2)
ensuring adequate liquidity, and (3) maintaining strong capital foundation.

Capital Resources
- -----------------

          On January 27, 1989, the OCC issued an amendment to 12 CFR Part 3
adopting final risk based capital guidelines for national banks.  Developed in
conjunction with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, these guidelines provide an additional
measure of a bank's capital adequacy and are intended to reflect the relative
degree of credit risk associated with various assets by setting different
capital requirements for assets having less credit risk than others.  Banks are
required to systematically hold capital against such off-balance sheet
activities as loans sold with recourse, loan commitments, guarantees and standby
letters of credit.  The guidelines strengthen the quality of capital by
increasing the emphasis on common equity and restricting the amount of loss
reserves and other forms of equity, such as preferred stock, that can be counted
as capital.

          Under the terms of the guidelines, banks must meet minimum capital
adequacy based upon both total assets and risk adjusted assets.  To the extent
that an institution has a favorable risk based capital ratio, it would more
likely be permitted to operate at or near minimum primary capital levels.  The
risk based requirements became effective on December 31, 1990.

          The risk based guidelines provided for a two year transition period,
beginning on December 31, 1990.  On December 31, 1992, the guidelines took
effect in their final form where upon all banks are required to maintain a risk
based capital ratio of 8.0%.  At June 30, 1996, the Bank had a total risk based
capital ratio (i.e. Tier One plus Tier Two capital) of 10.23% (11.36% for the
Company on a consolidated basis).

          The Company stands ready to infuse additional capital into the Bank
should it be warranted.

Effects of Inflation
- --------------------

          The impact of inflation on banks differs from its impact on non-
financial institutions. Banks, as financial intermediaries, have assets which
may move in concert with inflation.  This is especially true for banks with a
high percentage of rate-sensitive interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities.  A bank can reduce the impact of inflation if it can manage its
rate-sensitivity gap.  The Company attempts to structure its assets and
liabilities and manage its gap in a manner which will minimize the potential
adverse effects of inflation or other market forces on its profitability and
capital position.

Legal Action
- ------------

          The Company and the Bank are not involved at this time in any claims
or lawsuits other than routine matters arising out of the normal day-to-day
banking business.

Competition
- -----------

          All areas of the Company's business are highly competitive. The
Company faces heavy competition, both from local and national financial
institutions and from various other providers of financial services.  By
industry standards, the Company relies heavily on large deposit customers.  This
factor is a result of our customer base and local demographics.  The Bank and
the Company are well capitalized.

Accounting Pronouncements
- -------------------------

          In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards #125 "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities".

          This statement provides accounting and reporting standards for
transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities.
Those standards are based on consistent application of a financial-components
approach that focuses on control.  Under that approach, after a transfer of
financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it
controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when
control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished.
This Statement provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of
financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings.

          This Statement is effective for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996, and
is to be applied prospectively.  Earlier or retroactive application is not
permitted.
