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, 1996.)

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 March 31, 1997 and the consolidated results of operations for the
three month period ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 and the consolidated cash flows
for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 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
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.

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.

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:

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 (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 standards did not have a material impact on the Bank's consolidated
financial statements.

Item 2.

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

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

The Company's financial condition on March 31, 1997 reflected total assets of
$702.1 million or an increase of $5.2 million or .75% over total assets at
December 31, 1996. Net loans decreased some $.7 million or 1.6% to $451.2
million at March 31, 1996. Cash and cash equivalents remained virtually
unchanged at $46.4 million at December 31, 1996 vs. $46.5 million at March 31,
1997. Other assets increased by $.8 million. Aggregate securities investments
were $184.5 million at March 31, 1997, an increase of $5.2 million or 2.9% from
the level at December 31, 1996, funded by the $5.4 million increase in deposits.

During the first quarter of 1997, the Bank wrote new loan originations of $27.7
million. However, normal amortization, prepayments and sales of loans into the
secondary market outpaced this by approximately $700,000 resulting in a slight
decline in loans outstanding at March 31, 1997 compared to December 31, 1996.
The net decline arose solely in real estate mortgage loans which fell $4.5
million (which includes a $3.5 million payoff of a loan to one borrower). Such
real estate loans were $288.1 million at March 31, 1997 vs. $292.6 at December
31, 1996. Commercial loans increased $2.3 million or 3.2% to $74.2 million, and
consumer installment, and other loans increased $1.6 million or 2% to $88.9
million at March 31, 1997.

Period end total deposits increased $5.4 million or .9% in the first three
months of 1997 to $631.3 million. Of this amount, total Public (Municipal) Funds
increased $9.3 million or 19.1% to $58 million and total non-public funds
decreased $3.9 million or .7% to $573.3 million, which movement reflects, in
large measure, seasonal municipal and town tax collection patterns. The decrease
in period end nonpublic funds of $3.9 million is principally attributable to the
usual first quarter decline historically experienced by the Bank in the demand
deposit category.

[In fact, average demand deposits for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were
          ------- 
$134.0 million compared to $128.8 million for the same period in 1996; an
increase of $5.2 million.] Further management believes the decline in NOW
accounts compared to December 31, 1996, represents a continued migration of
these balances to higher interest products (time and savings accounts). These
declines were somewhat offset by an increase in savings accounts (principally
the Bank's Merit product) due to promotions in the first quarter of 1997, and
the new Orange County, N.Y. branches. However, the impact of such deposit
migration on the Company's overall average cost of funds is mitigated by the
relatively high level of the Company's demand deposit base. The following tables
summarize the net changes in public (municipal) fund and non-public fund
deposits from December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 (in thousands):

    Total stockholders' equity showed an increase of $146,000 or .2%. This
    increase arises from net income of $2,139,000, for the three months ended
    March 31, 1997 and additional common stock of $380,000 issued through the
    dividend reinvestment plan and the exercise of stock options, partially
    offset by dividends declared of $851,000, purchases of treasury stock of
    $728,000, and a decline of $744,000 (after tax) in the unrealized market
    value of investment securities held as "available for sale" due to movement
    in market rates.

Average yields on interest earning assets decreased .05 to 8.10% for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 vs. 1996, as a result of lower yields earned on
loans during the quarter, primarily due to a lower average prime rate during the
first quarter of 1997, compared to the first quarter of 1996. The average cost
of interest-bearing liabilities decreased .13 to 4.04% in the same period,
primarily due to $17 million of promotional certificates of deposit which
matured in the second quarter of 1996. Net interest margin on a tax equivalent
basis increased from 4.90% to 5.02% for the three months ended March 31, 1997
compared to the same period in 1996. Overall, variances due to changes in rates
produced a $153,000 decrease in net interest income in the first quarter of 1997
compared to the same period in 1996, while variance due to changes in volume
(principally due to an increase in average earning assets of $9.1 million)
contributed an increase of $342,000 in net interest income.

The net effect was that net interest income before provisions for loan losses
increased to $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to
$7.5 million for the comparable period in 1996, or an increase of $.2 million
(2.5%).

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

The loan loss provision for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 was
$700,000 compared to $600,000 for the comparable period in 1996, a 16.7%
increase. Total net charge-offs for the three months of 1997 were $550,000,
compared to $589,000 for the same period in 1996. The ratio of net chargeoffs to
average loans, on an annualized basis, decreased to .49% in the first three
months of 1997 vs. .53% for the full year of 1996.

Nonperforming assets remained constant at $6.1 million at March 31, 1997
compared to December 31, 1996. While there was turnover in the Company's OREO
portfolio, OREO balances outstanding of $1.0 million showed an increase of
$358,000 at March 31, 1997 from year end 1996, and non-performing loans
decreased by some $392,000, from $5.5 million to $5.1 million. The change in
nonperforming loans is attributable to a $606,000 decrease in nonperforming
construction/land development and real estate loans, and a $108,000 decline in
consumer loans, offset by a $322,000 increase in nonperforming commercial and
industrial loans. The Company's ratio of loan loss allowance to non-performing
loans stood at 187% at March 31, 1997 compared to 169% at year-end 1996, and the
allowance represented 2.09% of loans vs. 2.06% at the end of 1996. The
period-end ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was relatively
unchanged at .86% at March 31, 1997 vs. .88% at December 31, 1996. 

These nonperforming assets represent 119 loans or properties of which on1y 17
have balances in excess of $100,000, and no loan has a balance greater than
$350,000. Of the total nonperforming assets, 30.8% is secured by residential
property, 36.2% secured by commercial property, and 33% 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 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 67% of all of the Bank's nonperforming assets 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
current apparent economic 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.

       Other real estate owned totals $1,011,000 at March 31, 1997 and includes
       fourteen properties acquired through foreclosure: two parcels of land,
       nine residences, and two non-farm nonresidential properties. Of this
       amount, there are contracts currently in place for sales totaling
       approximately $347,000. Management believes that the carrying values of
       such properties adequately reflect the risk of loss in their orderly
       disposal.

       At March 31, 1997, the Company had approximately $10.7 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 70% 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
- ------------------

Noninterest income increased $32,000 in the first three months of 1997 to
$1,577,000 compared to the same period of 1996. Net gains on sales of loans
declined $32,000, and net gains on sales of available for sale securities
declined by $62,000, and merchant processing income was eliminated due to the
sale of the merchant processing portfolio in the last quarter of 1996. These
declines were offset by an increase in other noninterest income to $119,000
(primarily annuity sales commissions)

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

In total all other expenses were up slightly by $27,000 or .5% to $5,416,000 for
the first three months of 1997 compared to the same period of 1996.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $33,000 in the first three months of
1997 compared to 1996, mainly due to the personnel costs associated with the
Bank's new Orange County branches ($120,000), and other increases in
compensation related to new hires and normal salary increases ($180,000). Such
increases were substantially offset by a change in the recorded amount of salary
and benefit expenses related to stock appreciation rights' of $150,000. 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 the related
underlying stock options. As such, the Company recorded a one-time recovery of
$120,000.

Occupancy and equipment expense showed an increase of $61,000 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. Other real estate owned expense increased $10,000 to $36,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 as a result of additional OREO properties
carried in 1997 vs. 1996. These increases in expenses were partially offset by a
decrease in supply expense of $38,000 to $113,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 vs. 1996. Insurance expense also declined $30,000 for the first
three months of 1997 as compared to 1996 due to the rebidding of the Bank's
insurances in the second half of 1996.

Income tax expense decreased $32,000, or 3%, as a result of the Company's
increased investment in tax exempt securities. The Company's effective tax rate
was 32.9% and 34.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

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.

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
The following chart (in thousands) provides a quantification of the Company's
interest rate sensitivity gap as of March 31, 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 March 31, 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. Approximately 3.3% of the
Company's interest rate sensitivity is related to changes in short term interest
rates, particularly the prime rate. Thus, 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 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 March 31, 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 $135
         million at March 31, 1997.
