FORM 10-Q

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


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

The consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared
in accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and consequently the accompanying unaudited and condensed
consolidated financial statements and notes do not contain all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles.  These interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and note disclosure in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996.  

In the opinion of the management, 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, 1997 and its consolidated Company's results 
of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
and the consolidated cash flows for the six month then ended, and changes in
consolidated stockholders' equity for the six months ended 
June 30, 1997.  

In preparing such financial statements, management is required to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated statements of condition and the
revenues and expenses for the periods reported.  Actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.  

Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to
the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of other
real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loan
receivables.  In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan
losses and other real estate owned, management obtains independent appraisals
for significant properties, when appropriate, according to Bank policy or
regulation.  

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
                                                             
Material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.                

Forward-Looking Statements      
- --------------------------

The Company has made, and may continue to make, various forward-looking
statements with respect to earnings, credit quality and other financial and
business matters for the remainder of 1997 and, in certain instances,
subsequent periods.  The Company cautions that these forward-looking statements
are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and that
statements for subsequent periods are subject to greater uncertainty because of
the increased likelihood of changes in underlying factors and assumptions. 
Actual results could differ materially from forward-looking statements.  

In addition to those factors previously disclosed by the Company and those
factors identified elsewhere herein, the following factors could cause actual
results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements; pricing
pressures on loan and deposit products; actions of competitors; changes in
economic conditions; the extent and timing of actions of the Federal Reserve

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
Board; customer deposit disintermediation; changes in customers' acceptance of
the Company's products and services; other normal business risks such as credit
losses, litigation, etc.; and the extent and timing of legislative and
regulatory actions and reform.  

The Company's forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which
such statements are made.  By making any forward-looking statements, the
Company assumes no duty to update them to reflect new, changing or
unanticipated events of circumstances.  


ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS ISSUED BUT NOT IMPLEMENTED

Earnings Per Share
- ------------------

On March 3, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS" No. 128), Earnings per
Share.  SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods
ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods.  Earlier application
is not permitted.  Restatement of all prior-period earnings per share ("EPS")
data presented is required upon adoption of SFAS No. 128.  

SFAS No. 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting "Basic" and
"Diluted" EPS.  SFAS No. 128 states that "Basic EPS" excludes dilution and is
computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period; "Diluted
EPS" reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock
or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the
earnings of the entity.  "Basic EPS", replaces the presentation of "Primary
EPS", while, "Diluted EPS" is computed similarly to "Fully Diluted EPS"
pursuant to APB Opinion No. 15 (APB 15).

On a pro forma basis, the effect of this statement will be to report
earnings per share as follows:

Reporting Comprehensive Income and Disclosures About Segments of an
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
Enterprise and Related Information
- ----------------------------------

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two new
accounting standards, Statement of Financial Standards No. 130 "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130") and Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" ("SFAS No. 131").  

SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose
financial statements.  This statement requires that all items that are required
to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive
income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same
prominence as are the financial statements.  Comprehensive income is defined as
"the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise during a period
from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. 
It includes all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners."  

SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the way public business enterprises
report information about operating segments and annual financial statements and
requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating
segments and interim financial reports issued to shareholders.  It also
establishes standards for related disclosure about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers.  The statement requires that a public
business enterprise report financial and description information about its
reportable operating segments.  Operating segments are components of an
enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and assess performance.  The statement requires that public
business enterprises report a measure of segment profit or loss, certain
specific revenue/expense items and segment assets.  It also requires that
information be reported about revenues derived from the enterprises' products
or services, or about the countries in which the enterprises earn revenues and
holds assets, and about major customers, regardless of whether that information
is used in making operating decisions.  This statement is effective for
financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997.  

Both of these statements require disclosures that the Company must make in
its financial statements or notes thereto.  Implementation of these statements
will not have any significant effect on the results of operation or financial
condition, as currently reported by the Company.  Additional information will
be provided, however, which will provide the user of these financial statements
with a better understanding of the operations of the Company.  

Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
- -------------------------------------------

SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishments of Liabilities," specifies accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments
of liabilities and for distinguishing whether a transfer of financial assets in
exchange for cash or other consideration should be accounted for as a sale or
as a pledge of collateral in a secured borrowing.  SFAS No. 125 is effective
for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996, except for certain provisions

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
(relating to the accounting for secured borrowings and collateral and the
accounting for transfers and servicing of repurchase agreements, dollar rolls,
securities lending and similar transactions) which have been deferred until
January 1, 1998 in accordance with SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of the Effective
Date of Certain Provisions of FASB Statement No. 125."  The adoption of these
effective standards did not have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.  Adoption of the standards deferred by SFAS
No. 127 also are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

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

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

The Company's financial condition on June 30, 1997 reflected total assets of
$729.0 million, an increase of $32.2 million or 4.6% over total assets at
December 31, 1996.  Net loans increased some $11.2 million or 2.5% to $453.6
million at June 30, 1997.  Cash and cash equivalents increased from $46.4
million at December 31, 1996 to $57.6 million at June 30, 1997.  Other assets
increased by $.7 million.  Aggregate securities investments were $188.2 million
at June 30, 1997, an increase of $9.0 million or 5.0% from the level at
December 31, 1996.   

During the first half of 1997, the Bank wrote new loan originations of $74.9
million.  However, normal amortization and prepayments (which average
approximately $10.0 million per month) and sales of loans into the secondary
market were approximately $63.6 million, resulting in the $11.3 million net
increase in loans outstanding at June 30, 1997 compared to December 31, 1996. 
The increases arose in the categories of commercial loans ($6.4 million),
consumer, principally "indirect", installment loans ($4.8 million) and real
estate construction ($1.1 million), which increases were offset partially by
modest declines in real estate mortgage of $.8 million and other loans of $.2
million.  
                                              

Period end total deposits increased $31.7 million or 5.1% in the first six
months of 1997 to $657.5 million.  Of this amount, total Public (Municipal)
Funds increased $5.8 million or 12.0% to $54.5 million and total non-public
funds increased $25.9 million or 4.5% to $603 million, which principally
reflects the effects of the Bank's second quarter "No Penalty CD" promotion, 
the second quarter seasonality in the demand deposit category, and the
contribution of the Bank's new Orange County, NY branches, in Monroe and Goshen
(which recorded $7 million in new non-municipal deposits since opening early
this year.  
  
The following tables summarize the net changes in public (municipal) fund
and non-public fund deposits from December 31, 1996 to June 30, 1997 (in
thousands):

Total Stockholders' Equity increased $623,000, or approximately 1%.  Net
retentions of $2.7 million were partially offset by a net treasury stock
purchases of $1.8 million.  While the unrealized gains (net of tax) on
available for sale securities remained virtually unchanged at June 30, 1997 vs.
December 31, 1996, during the second quarter of 1997 securities market interest
rates declined to levels closer to those at the beginning of the year, thereby
eliminating an unrealized loss as of March 31, 1997 of $448,000, after tax.

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

On a tax equivalent basis, gross interest income increased by $774,000 or
3.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the same period in

period ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the six months ended 
June 30, 1996.  For the first six months of 1997, the Company experienced a
net increase in average earning assets compared to the same period of 1996 of

average shareholders' equity of $4.3 million for the six month period ended
1997 compared to 1996.

Average yields on interest earning assets remained relatively unchanged at 
8.10% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 vs. 8.11% as of the same period in
1996 as increases in investment yields partially offset declines in loan
yields.  Liability rates also remained relatively unchanged at 4.10% for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 vs. 4.11% as of June 1996.  However, due to the
growth in noninterest bearing demand deposit balances, net interest margins on
a tax equivalent basis increased .05% to 4.99% for the six months ended June
30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996.  Variances due to changes in
rates produced a $259,000 decrease in net interest income in the six months of
1997 compared to the same period in 1996, while the increase in average earning
assets of $20.6 million principally contributed to the $728,000 increase in net
interest income due to volume variances over the same period.  

The net effect was that net interest income before provisions for loan
losses grew to $15.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to
$15.2 million for the comparable period in 1996, or an increase of $469,000
(3.1%).

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

The loan loss provision for the six month period ended June 30, 1997 was
$1,300,000 compared to $1,350,000 for the comparable period in 1996, a 3.7%
decrease.  Total net charge-offs for the six months of 1997 were $1,173,000,
compared to $1,350,000 for the same period in 1996.  The ratio of net
chargeoffs to average loans, on an annualized basis, decreased to .52% in the
first six months of 1997 vs. .62% for the same period of 1996. 

Nonperforming assets decreased slightly to $5.9 million at June 30, 1997
compared to $6.1 million at December 31, 1996.  While there was turnover in the
Company's OREO portfolio, OREO balances outstanding of $958,000 showed an
increase of $306,000 at June 30, 1997 from year end 1996, and non-performing
loans decreased by some $556,000, from $5.5 million to $4.9 million.  The
change in nonperforming loans is attributable to a $335,000 decrease in
nonperforming construction/land development and real estate loans, a $132,000
decline in nonperforming consumer loans, and a $76,000 decrease in
nonperforming commercial and industrial loans.  The Company's ratio of loan
loss allowance to non-performing loans stood at 190% at June 30, 1997 compared
to 169% at year-end 1996, and the allowance represented 2.04% of loans vs.
2.06% at the end of 1996.  The period-end ratio of non-performing assets to
total assets declined to .81% at June 30, 1997 vs. .89% at December 31, 1996,
due both to the decline in nonperforming assets and to the growth in total
assets during this period.  

Nonperforming assets represent 135 loans or OREO properties of which on1y 19
have  balances in excess of $100,000, and no nonperforming assets has a balance
greater than $330,000.  Of the total nonperforming assets, 40% is secured by
residential property, 42% by commercial property, 18% 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, among other things, 
both trends in local economic conditions and the categorization of the credit
quality of individual loans.  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.  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 79% of all of the Bank's nonperforming loans are collateralized by
real estate.   

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 relatively stable current economic conditions 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. 
        

Other real estate owned totals $958,000 at June 30, 1997 and includes
thirteen properties acquired through foreclosure: two parcels of land, seven
residences, and four non-farm nonresidential properties.  Management believes
that the carrying values of such properties adequately reflect the risk of loss
in their orderly disposal.

At June 30, 1997, the Company had approximately $8.7 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.  Approximately 76% of all such loans are collateralized by real
estate.  Further deterioration in such borrowers' financial position may result
in classifying them as nonperforming assets.  The following table summarizes
impaired loans for the periods indicated (in thousands):

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

Total noninterest income increased $10,000 in the first six months of 1997
to $3,121,000 compared to the same period of 1996, while "other" noninterest
income increased $127,000, of which $114,000 was due to the sale of

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
annuity products and $59,000 was due to the recoveries of income on a prior year
item. These increases were mostly offset by declines in net gains on sales of
loans of $49,000, a decline of $58,000 in net gains on sales of available for
sale securities and the elimination of $60,000 in merchant processing income due
to the sale of the merchant processing portfolio in the last quarter of 1996.

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

In total, noninterest expense was up by $240,000 or 2.3% to $10,881,000 for
the first six months of 1997 compared to the same period of 1996. 

Salaries and employee benefits increased $297,000 in the first six months of
1997 compared to 1996, mainly due to the personnel costs associated with the
Bank's new Orange County branches ($176,000), and other increases in
compensation related to new hires and normal salary increases ($355,000).  Such
increases were partially offset by a change in the recorded amount of salary
and benefit expenses related to stock appreciation rights' of $234,500.  In the
first quarter of 1997, all officers who had stock appreciation rights in tandem
with options, waived such rights, but retained the rights to their related
underlying stock options.  As such, the Company recorded a recovery of $120,000
in previous expense vs. an expensive charge of $139,000 in the comparible period
of 1996.

Occupancy and equipment expense showed an increase of $55,000 over the same
period in 1996, again mainly due to the Bank's expansion into Orange County. 
Telephone expense shows an increase due mainly to a refund of $24,000 received
in 1996 and cost increases associated with expansion of the Bank's
communications network.  Other real estate owned expense increased $49,000 to
$57,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as a result of additional OREO
properties carried in 1997 vs. 1996.  Advertising and public relations
expenditures increased by $48,000 (primarily in conjunction with the promotion
of new branches).  These increases in expenses were partially offset by a
decrease in supply expense of $86,000 to $222,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1997 vs. 1996 and a decline in other noninterest expenses of $140,000. 
Major savings in other expenses include insurance expense ($46,000),
miscellaneous losses (forgeries, etc. $50,000), postage savings through
barcoding ($21,000) and loan processing and collection expenses ($81,000). 

Despite the increase in pretax income, income tax expense remained
relatively unchanged at $2,170,000 at June 30, 1997 compared to $2,168,000 at
the same time in 1996, due to the increased investment in tax-exempt
securities.  The Company's effective tax rate was 33.0% and 34.5% for the six
months ended June 30,  1997 and 1996, respectively.

Three months ended June 30, 1997 vs. June 30, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------

Net interest income increased $280,000 or 3.7% for the three months ended 
June 30, 1997 compared to 1996, primarily due to interest on loans from
higher average balances, partially offset by interest expense related to the
funding of such increased loans.  

Provisions for loan losses decreased $150,000 or 20.0% to $600,000 due to
management's assessment of the amounts necessary to maintain an adequate
allowance for possible loan losses.  

                                       20
<PAGE>
 
Other income decreased $22,000 to $1,544,00 for the three months ended 
June 30, 1997, primarily as a result of service charge declines of $56,000
in the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to 1996 offset by $37,000 of
trust earnings due to higher account balances under administration.  

Total noninterest expense increased $213,000 to $5,465,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 compared to June 30, 1996.  

Salaries and benefits increased by $264,000 in this period due to the
staffing associated with the new Orange County branches, additional support
staff, and normal merit increases.  Occupancy expense decreased by $6,000 as
lower equipment expenses offset the cost associated with new branches.  

Other real estate owned expense increased $39,000 to $21,000 in the three
months ended June 30, 1997, primarily due to a higher level of gains on
disposal of properties in the second quarter of 1996.  (The Company had
recorded a net credit in OREO expense of $18,000 in 1996.)

Stationary and supplies expense was $46,000 below the second quarter 1996
levels primarily due to control procedures put in place in late 1996.  Other
expenses are $54,000 below the second quarter of 1996 levels primarily in the
areas of loan processing and collections, insurance and miscellaneous losses.  

Pretax income increased $195,000 or 6.1% for the three months ended June 30,
1997 compared to the same period of 1996, while income taxes increased only
$34,000 due to the increased investment by the Company in tax exempt
securities.  Comparative income after taxes increased $161,000 to $2,265,000 or
7.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 vs. 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, 1997 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, 1997,
assuming no management action, the Company's near-term interest rate risk is to
a declining rate environment over the next three months of 1997, as assets
which re-price in the next three months exceed liabilities which would
similarly re-price by 1.8% of earning assets.  Thus, near term 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.  However, interest
rate risk exposure in the one year time frame is to a rising rate scenario,
principally due to a higher level of fixed-rate liabilities relative to assets
(9.9%) that would reprice in that time frame.  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 actions
that may be taken to manage this risk.

</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, 1997.

(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 $154 million
        at June 30, 1997.

(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%. 

At June 30, 1997, the Bank met the requirements for a "well capitalized"
institution based on its capital ratios as of such date.  

The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents of $57,631 million
in addition to its securities available for sale of $166,949 million at 
June 30, 1997 are sufficient to meet both the funding needs of its borrowers
and the liquidity requirements of its depositors. 

The Company plans to open new branches in Middletown, NY (Orange County) and
Wappingers Falls, NY (Dutchess County) as well as relocate its Newburgh Branch
facility.  Such new facilities are now expected to be completed around year
end.  The construction costs associated with these new facilities is
anticipated to be approximately $1,250,000.  The Company has sufficient capital
resources to fund such construction.
