FORM 10-Q

HUDSON CHARTERED BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Basis of Presentation
- ---------------------

As permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the accompanying
unaudited and condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been
condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles. (See the notes to the financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 1995.)

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
position as of June 30, 1996 and the consolidated results of operations for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and the consolidated
cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.

The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company's consolidated revenues are primarily derived from its commercial
banking subsidiary, The First National Bank of the Hudson Valley (the "Bank").
At June 30, 1996 the Bank had total assets of $679.2 million and total
stockholder's equity of $54.0 million, compared, respectively, to $690.6 million
and $53.0 million in total assets and total stockholder's equity at December 31,
1995. Net income of the Bank included in consolidated net income was $4.2
million and $3.0 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

This Form 10-Q contains certain forward looking statements pertaining to net
interest income and non-interest income.  These projections are subject to
various factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
estimates made in the forward looking statements.  Such factors include interest
rates, customer preferences and local and general economic conditions.

Material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
- ---------------------------------------

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation".  SFAS No. 123 establishes a fair
value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans and
encourages, but does not require, entities to adopt that method in place of the
provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees", for all arrangements under which employees
receive shares of stock or other equity instruments of the employer or the
employer incurs liabilities to employees in amounts based on the price of the
stock.  SFAS No. 123 also establishes fair value as the measurement basis for
transactions in which an entity acquires goods or services from nonemployees in
exchange for equity instruments.

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
An entity may continue to apply APBO No. 25 in accounting for stock-based
employee compensation arrangements.  However, entities doing so will be required
to disclose, in their fiscal year-end accounts, pro forma net income and
earnings per share determined as if the fair value based method established by
SFAS No. 123 had been applied in measuring compensation cost.

The accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123 are effective for transactions entered
into after December 15, 1995.  Following adoption of SFAS No. 123, the Company
will continue measuring compensation cost for employee stock compensation plans
in accordance with the provisions of APBO No. 25.

Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights
- ----------------------------------------

The Company adopted SFAS No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights"
effective January 1, 1996.  As a result of implementation, $33,000 was recorded
as an asset for originated mortgage servicing rights which accordingly increased
gains on sales of loans.  This asset represents the present value of estimated
future net cash flows related to normal servicing rights on $5,654,000 in
originated mortgages sold into the secondary market in the first half of 1996.
The Company regards .25% of sold loans as normal servicing rights.  It is
expected that most future originated long-term mortgages will be sold, many of
which will be servicing retained, and thus the asset related to originated
mortgage servicing rights will increase. As a result, gains on sales of loans
may increase, and the annual income related to mortgage servicing may
accordingly decline. The Company will reevaluate the asset on a quarterly basis
for impairment and would establish a reserve if the fair value of such servicing
rights is less than the recorded amounts. All previously originated and sold
loans will continue to accrue income at the related servicing income of .25% as
SFAS No. 122 can only be adopted prospectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

Financial Condition
- -------------------

The Company's financial condition on June 30, 1996 reflected total assets of
$685.6 million or a decrease of $10.9 million or 1.6% from total assets at
December 31, 1995.  Net loans increased some $12.3 million or 3.0% to $425.7
million at June 30, 1996.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $18.4 million or
27.0% to $49.5 million at June 30, 1996.  Other assets decreased by
$.7 million.  Aggregated securities investments were $180.4 million at
June 30, 1996, a decrease of $1.4 million or .8% from the level at
December 31, 1995.

Of the increase in loans, commercial loans increased $.5 million or .7%.
Consumer installment loans increased $7.3 million or 11.5% as the Bank continues
to generate automobile loans through a network of local automobile dealerships
in order to build its consumer loan volumes.  Due to the competitive nature of
this type of financing, the yields obtained on this type of financing may be
somewhat lower than other consumer loan products.   Indirect automobile
financing can carry a higher risk of loss than direct financing.  In order to
manage the risk the Company maintains enhanced credit policies and procedures on
this portfolio.  Real estate mortgage loans (construction and permanent
financing) increased by $4.3 million to $288.7 million at June 30, 1996,
reflecting increases in commercial mortgage lending activities.

Total deposits decreased $12.6 million or 2.0% in the first six months of 1996
to $618.4 million.  Of this amount, total Public (Municipal) Funds decreased
$1.1 million or 2.6% to $40.9 million and total non-public funds decreased $11.6
million or 2.0% to $577.3 million.  The following tables summarize the net
changes in public (municipal) fund and non-public fund deposits from December
31, 1995 to June 30, 1996 (in thousands):

</TABLE>

The increase in nonpublic savings funds of $12.8 million is principally
attributable to the growth in savings due to the Bank's Merit savings product
(a package of free services with a savings account interest rate tied to the
Federal Reserve discount rate).  This increase partially offsets declines in
other  accounts.  Demand deposit declines principally represent a period-end
effect, as average balances in demand deposits during the second quarter were
approximately $134.0 million.  The decrease from the average balances reflects
June 15, 1996 corporate tax payments.  Further, Management believes the decline
in Money Market and NOW accounts represent a continued migration of these
balances to higher interest products (time and savings accounts).  The decline
in time deposit accounts of $12.5 million represents maturing certificates of
deposit which had interest rates higher than renewal rates.  Many of these funds
were also reinvested in the Merit savings products which pay a relatively higher
rate of interest without the term restrictions associated with time deposits.
These shifts in deposits will raise the cost of interest bearing liabilities.
However, the impact of such deposit migration on the Company's overall average
cost of funds is mitigated by the high level of the Company's demand deposit
base.

                                       12

In this connection, it should also be noted that the Company previously offered
a premium rate "15 month" certificate of deposit.  Such deposits totaled
approximately $17.0 million and carried interest rates between 6.75% and 7.25%.
These deposits matured during the second quarter of 1996.  Although the Company
promoted alternative products to these customers, due to the significantly lower
general market rates approximately $6.0 million of these deposits left the bank.
The remainder of these deposits were retained at substantially lower interest
costs.  This had a positive effect on interest expense by reducing the overall
cost of the bank's liabilities.  Thus, comparing the Company's net interest
margin between the second quarter of 1995 and the second quarter of 1996, the
net interest margin increased by .03%.

Total stockholders' equity showed an increase of $1,857,000 or 3.1%.  This
increase is due to net income of $4,117,000, for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 and additional common stock of $549,000 issued through the
dividend reinvestment plan and the exercise of stock options.  These increases
in stockholders' equity were partially offset by dividends declared  of
$1,404,000, purchases of treasury stock of $508,000, and a decline of $795,000
(after tax) in unrealized securities gains due to movement in market rates.  On
March 12, 1996, the Company called all the outstanding (571,301) shares of the
Series B preferred stock for redemption, effective April 15, 1996.  Of the
571,301 shares outstanding, 559,055 shares of Series B preferred were converted
into 431,500 shares of common stock of the Company and 12,246 shares were
redeemed, for a total reduction of stockholders' equity related to redemption of
$122,500, which was paid from the Company's liquid assets.  At current dividend
rates on its common stock, the redemption/conversion of the preferred stock will
reduce the overall dividends paid by approximately $138,000 per annum from the
levels previously paid on the preferred stock.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Interest income as reported, for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
the same period in 1995 increased $531,000 while interest expense decreased by
$300,000.  This resulted in an increase in net interest income of $831,000.
Provision for loan losses increased by $250,000.  Total operating expenses
decreased by $1,132,000.  Net income increased by $1,212,000 or 41.7%.  Fully
diluted earnings per share increased $.13 to $.48 in the second quarter of 1996
vs. 1995.

Net income and earnings per common share data is presented in the following

Interest income
- ---------------

On a tax equivalent basis, gross interest income increased by $533,000 or 2.1%
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.
Total interest expense decreased by $300,000 or 2.9% for the six months period
ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995.  At 
June 30, 1996, the Company experienced a net increase in average earning assets 
compared to June 30, 1995 of $33.6 million, but a net decrease in average loans 
of $4.0 million as a result of the sales of $25.0 million in long-term fixed 
rate mortgages in the second and third quarter of 1995.  Consequently, fed 
funds sold and securities increased by approximately $37.7 million.  These 
assets generally carry lower yields than loans.  This asset growth was 
principally funded by an increase in average deposits of $26.4 million for the 
six month period ended 1996 compared to 1995, of which $16.5 million were 
interest bearing (generally higher yielding products such as Merit savings and 
time deposits) and $9.9 million were non-interest-bearing.  The remaining 
growth was funded by an increase in shareholders' equity.

Average yields on interest earning assets decreased .28% to 8.11% in the second
quarter 1996 vs. 1995.  The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities
decreased .26% to 4.11% in the same period.  Net interest margins on a tax
equivalent basis increased .01% to 4.94% for the six months ended June 30, 1996
compared to the same period in 1995.  Variances due to changes in rates produced
a $231,000 increase in net interest income in the second quarter of 1996
compared to the same period in 1995.  Additionally, the increase in average
earning assets of $33.6 million contributed $600,000 in additional net interest
income over the same periods.

The net effect was that net interest income before provisions for loan losses
increased to $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
$14.3 million for the comparable period in 1995, or an increase of $831,000
(5.8%).

Provision for loan losses and credit quality
- --------------------------------------------

The loan loss provision for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 was
$1,350,000 compared to $1,100,000 for the comparable period in 1995, a 22.7%
increase.  Total net charge-offs for the six months of 1996 were $1,350,000,
compared to $927,000 for the same period in 1995.  The ratio of net chargeoffs
to loans, on an annualized basis, increased to .62% in the first six months of
1996 vs. .43% over the full year of 1995.  The increase in charge-offs over the
first six months of 1995 is spread almost equally between commercial loans and
residential real estate related loans.  (There was no increase in commercial
real estate loan charge-offs.)  Most of the increase is associated with
increasing difficulties being experienced by borrowers unable to cope with the
extended economic impact of the complete closure of the IBM Kingston facility in
1995.  While there was significant turnover in the Company's OREO portfolio,
OREO balances outstanding remained unchanged from year-end 1995, and non-
performing loans declined by some $450,000, from $6.5 million to $6.1 million,
attributable to $650,000 decrease in nonperforming commercial and industrial
loans.  The Company's ratio of loan loss allowance to non-performing loans stood
at 182% at June 30, 1996 compared to 166% at year-end 1995, and the allowance
represented 2% of loans vs. 2.1% at the end of 1995. The period-end ratio of
non-performing assets to total assets declined somewhat to .89% at June 30, 1996
vs. .93% at December 31, 1995, due primarily to the slight decline in non-
performing assets during this period.

These nonperforming assets represent 96 loans or properties of which 22 have
balances in excess of $100,000, and no loan has a balance greater than $300,000.
Of the nonperforming assets total, 45.5% is secured by residential property,
34.9% by commercial property, and 19.6% by other assets or unsecured.

Provisions for loan losses are based on management's assessment of risk of loss
inherent in the loan portfolio and as such reflect both trends in local economic
conditions and the categorization of the credit quality of the individual loans
it has made.  Such assessment is ongoing, and may not directly reflect the
charge-offs taken in any accounting period, although the trend in charge-offs is
an important element in the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses, and accordingly, provisions have tended to increase in periods when the
level of charge-offs might indicate a deteriorating condition in the loan
portfolio.  Provisioning policy during the recent years has resulted in a ratio
of allowance for loan losses to total loans of approximately 2.0%.  The ratio of
the allowance for loan losses to total nonperforming loans does not reflect
collateral values, although 80% of all of the Bank's nonperforming assets are
collateralized by real estate.

Recent statistical data indicates that economic conditions may have stabilized,
except for Ulster County, which relatively, was the county most severely
impacted by the IBM cutbacks.  Ulster County has lost approximately 4,800 jobs
since June 1992 (just prior to the IBM cutbacks).  Of the previously announced
4,000 jobs planned to move to the IBM Kingston facility, approximately 3,000
private sector jobs have now been agreed by the State, although many of these
jobs will initially be seasonal.  The move of the remaining jobs (state
employees) has been put on hold pending further

                                       17

analysis by State officials. Despite some clear signs of recovery in certain
sectors, taken as a whole, the local region continues to perform less favorably
in comparison to many other regions in the United States. Management, therefore,
continues to closely monitor local economic conditions relative to the impact of
IBM's downsizing and the significant vacancy rates of commercial office and
industrial space. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is
adequate to cover the risk of loss inherent in the portfolio but no assurance
can be given that the current apparent stabilization of the Company's overall
market area will not be unsettled by future events. Any such developments would
be expected to adversely effect the financial performance of the Company.

(1) Nonaccrual status denotes loans on which, in the opinion of management, the
collection of interest is unlikely, or loans that meet other nonaccrual criteria
as established by regulatory authorities.  Payments received on loans classified
as nonaccrual are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or
recorded as interest income, depending upon management's assessment of the
collectibility of the loan.

(2) Net of allowance of  $250,000 in 1993.

Other real estate owned totals $1,273,000 at June 30, 1996 and includes twelve
properties acquired through foreclosure: three parcels of land, seven
residences, and two non-farm nonresidential properties.  Of this amount, there
are contracts currently in place for sales totaling $351,000.  Management
believes that the carrying values of such properties adequately reflect the risk
of loss in their orderly disposal.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had
approximately $13.0 million in loans requiring special attention (substandard),
in addition to the nonperforming loans and other nonperforming assets noted
above.  Such loans are being monitored so that if present concerns about the
borrowers ability to comply with repayment terms becomes evident, management
will be able to quickly assess impairment.  Most all such loans are
collateralized by real estate.  Further deterioration in such borrowers'
financial position may result in classifying them as nonperforming assets.  In
the opinion of management, the risk of loss on these loans is adequately
provided for in the Company's allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest Income
- ------------------

Noninterest income increased $206,000 in the first half of 1996 to $3,111,000
compared to the same period of 1995.  Of this amount, the level of service
charges and fee income increased $340,000 due to implementation of a new service
charge structure effective February 1996.  An additional $82,000 related to
sales of securities.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease of
$28,000 in annuity and mutual funds.  While gains on loan sales decreased
$78,000; $174,000 is due to a one-time gain on sale of fixed rate residential
mortgage loans in June 1995.  Therefore, underlying gains on sales of loans into
the secondary mortgage market actually increased by $96,000.

Other Expenses
- --------------

Salaries and employee benefits increased $68,000.  This increase is due entirely
to the impact of the recent increase of the Company's share price, on the value
of certain stock appreciation rights previously granted to officers.
($139,000).  Therefore, underlying salary and benefit expense decreased by
$71,000.

Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $167,000 to $2,000,000 at
June 30, 1996.  This increase is due to harsh weather experienced in the first
quarter of 1996 compared to the mild weather in the first quarter of 1995, and
higher level of equipment expense in 1996 vs. 1995.

Supplies expense decreased by $145,000 to $308,000 for the first half of 1996
vs. 1995.  Telephone expense decreased in the first half by $67,000 to $190,000.
These expenses decreased due to both initiatives undertaken to reduce overhead
expenses.

Other real estate owned expense decreased $167,000 to $8,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 as a result of reduced carrying costs associated with the
lower levels of other real estate owned in 1996 and gains recognized on disposal
totaling $63,000.

FDIC insurance expense decreased $695,000 to $16,000 as a result of the Bank
Insurance Fund reaching the statutory limits of 1.25% of insured deposits.  The
Bank is currently billed at the statutory minimum of $2,000 per annum.  The Bank
has approximately $13.0 million in deposits insured by the Savings Association
Insurance Fund of the FDIC ("OKAR" deposits), for which it is required to pay
$.23 per thousand dollars of deposits.

Merger expenses decreased by $250,000 to $0.  The Company established a one time
provision for finalizing the conversion of its data processing systems in the
first quarter of 1995.

Other expenses decreased  $41,000 to $2,303,000 for the second half of 1996
compared to the same period of 1995.  This decrease relates primarily to lower
miscellaneous write-offs from 1995 levels.

Pretax income, therefore, rose by $1,919,000 (44%) from $4,366,000 to $6,285,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
Income tax expense rose $707,000 as a result of the increase in pretax income
noted above.  The Company's effective tax rate was 34.5% and 33.5% for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively as more of the Company's
increase in pretax income was taxable at the statutory tax rates.

Three months ended June 30, 1996 vs. June 30, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------

Net interest income increased $452,000 or 6.3% for the three months ended June
30, 1996 compared to 1995, primarily due to reductions in interest expense of
$538,000.

Provisions for loan losses increased $150,000 or 25.0% to $750,000 due to
management's assessment of the amounts necessary to maintain an adequate
allowance for possible loan losses.

Other income decreased $53,000 to $1,566,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996, primarily as a result of the one-time gains recorded on sales of
long term fixed rate residential mortgages, of $174,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1995.  This was offset by service charges increases of $165,000
in the three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to 1995.  Further, other income
decreased $74,000 due to decreases in annuity sales and commissions on sales of
check orders.

Total noninterest expense decreased $644,000 to $5,252,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to June 30, 1995.

Salaries and benefits decreased by $71,000 in this period due to non-recurring
severances of $50,000 in 1995.  Occupancy expense increased by $82,000 as
equipment expenses exceeded the prior year.

Other real estate owned expense decreased $120,000 to ($18,000) in the three
months ended June 30, 1995, primarily due to gains on disposal of properties in
the second quarter of 1996.

FDIC insurance premiums decreased $381,000 in the second quarter of 1996 as a
result of reduction of the FDIC assessments.

Other noninterest expense decreased $274,000 of which $100,000 relates to the
1995 A.T. Hudson contract and $150,000 relates to 1995 computer consulting
expenses in connection with the integration of the predecessor banks.

Pretax income increased $893,000 or 38.9% for the three months ended June 30,
1996 compared to the same period of 1995, and income taxes increased $308,000 or
39.5% as more pretax income was subject to statutory rates.  Income after taxes
increased $585,000 to $2,164,000 or 38.5% for the three months ended June 30,
1996.

Asset/Liability Management
- --------------------------

Management believes the Company's ability to plan for changes in interest rates
is a significant profitability factor.  The Company's primary objective in
managing interest rate sensitivity is to maintain a broadly balanced position
between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to minimize the
impact of significant interest rate fluctuations.  Further, the historical level
of demand deposits (approximately 20% of total deposits) helps to mitigate
increases in interest rates and reduces the average cost of all liabilities to a
level significantly below the average cost of only interest-bearing liabilities.

The following chart (in thousands) provides a quantification of the Company's
interest rate sensitivity gap as of June 30, 1996 based upon the known repricing
dates of certain assets and liabilities and the assumed repricing dates of
others.  As shown in the chart below, at June 30, 1996, assuming no management
action, the Company's near-term interest rate risk is to a declining rate
environment, that is, net interest revenue would be expected to be adversely
affected by a decline in interest rates below the rates embedded in the current
yield curve.  Over the next three months of 1996, approximately 10.4% of the
Company's interest rate sensitivity is related to changes in short term interest
rates, particularly the prime rate.  Interest rate risk exposure in the one year
time frame is to a rising rate scenario, principally due to a high level of
fixed-rate assets relative to liabilities that would reprice in that time frame.
Through the Company's asset/liability management programs, this overall
sensitivity to rising rates within one year has been reduced from 15.2% of
earning assets at March 31, 1996 to 9.5% of earning assets at June 30, 1996.
This chart displays only a static view of the Company's interest rate
sensitivity gap and does not capture the dynamics of balance sheet, rate and
spread movements nor management's actions that may be taken to manage this
position.

</TABLE>
(1)  Interest rate sensitivity gaps are defined as the fixed rate positions
     (assets less liabilities) for a given time period.  The gaps measure the
     time weighted dollar equivalent volume of positions fixed for a particular
     period.  The gap positions reflect a repricing date at which date funds are
     assumed to "mature" and reprice to a current market rate for the asset or
     liability.  The table does not include loans in nonaccrual status or net
     unrealized losses recorded on "available-for-sale" securities as of June
     30, 1996.

(2)  Variable rate balances are reported based on their repricing formulas.
     Fixed rate balances are reported based on their scheduled contractual
     maturity dates, except for certain investment securities and loans secured
     by 1-4 family residential properties that are based on anticipated cash
     flows.

(3)  Prime-priced loans and investments are considered as 1 to 3 month assets.

(4)  Savings accounts: one half of the level of Merit savings accounts, which
     reprice against changes in the Federal Reserve Discount rate, are
     classified as three months or less maturities.  Managements' analysis of
     changes in levels indicate that changes in this rate are approximately half
     as often as changes in other market rates.  The balance of these accounts
     and other savings accounts are classified as four months to one year
     maturities, reflecting the lagging period that historically exists in rates
     paid on passbook and savings accounts.

(5)  Other deposits: Time deposits are classified by contractual maturity or
     repricing frequency.  NOW accounts are classified as four months to one
     year maturities.  The balance of deposits are considered less than three
     month maturities, including all money market deposit accounts.  The
     interest rate sensitivity assumptions presented for these deposits are
     based on historical and current experiences regarding balance retention and
     interest rate repricing behavior.

(6)  Non-interest bearing deposit liabilities were approximately $133 million at
     June 30, 1996.

</TABLE>
(1) Regulatory authorities require all but the most highly rated banks and bank
holding companies to have a leverage ratio of at least between 4.0% -5.0%.

The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents of $49.5 million in
addition to its securities available for sale of $164.3 million at June 30, 1996
are sufficient to meet both the funding needs of its borrowers and the liquidity
requirements of its depositors.
