NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain captions in the financial statements presented for
prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the 1994 presentation.
ASSETS HELD FOR ACCELERATED DISPOSITION - Assets held for accelerated
disposition (included in other assets), which are carried at fair value less
the estimated cost of disposing of the properties ("net realizable value"),
amounted to $174.8 million at March 31, 1994. During the first quarter of
1994, the Corporation transferred loans and other real estate owned ("OREO")
with a book value of $43.6 million ($30.6 million after related charge-offs) to
assets held for accelerated disposition and resolved $12.3 million. During
April 1994, a portfolio of assets was sold and certain loans and OREO, not
previously identified for sale, were transferred to assets held for accelerated
disposition. In the first quarter of 1993, Midlantic transferred loans and
OREO with a book value of $244.0 million to assets held for accelerated
disposition. These assets, which at March 31, 1993 had a net realizable value
of $165.3 million, were subsequently sold in 1993.
PREFERRED STOCK - On April 13, 1994, the Board of Directors of MC declared a
cash dividend on MC's Term Adjustable Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock - Series
A (the "Preferred Stock") of $906 thousand, representing full payment of the
first quarter 1994 dividend requirement, payable in the second quarter of 1994.
Pursuant to an agreement between Midlantic and the holder of the Preferred
Stock, Midlantic, at its discretion, may pay dividends in cash or in shares of
common stock or in any combination thereof, so long as any such issuance would
not result in the holder of the Preferred Stock being the beneficial owner of
more than 4.99 percent of the outstanding shares of Midlantic's common stock.

STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS - Cash paid during the first three months of 1994 and
1993 for interest on deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term debt
amounted to $67.8 million and $95.9 million, respectively. Net cash paid for
federal and state income taxes during the first three months of 1994 was $97.5
million and net cash received for income taxes during the first quarter of 1993
amounted to $86.7 million.
During the first three months of 1994 and 1993, $5.5 million and $53.3 million,
respectively, of loans, net of charge-offs, were transferred into OREO. The
transfer of loans into OREO and the transfer of loans and OREO to assets held
for accelerated disposition constituted non-cash transactions and, accordingly,
are not reflected in the statement of cash flows.
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS - In the first quarter of 1994, Midlantic adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 112 "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" as a cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. The cumulative effect of this change in accounting
principle reduced first quarter 1994 net income by $7.5 million or $.14 per
fully-diluted common share (net of income taxes). FAS No. 112 requires accrual
accounting for postemployment benefits (benefits such as severance and
disability payments to former or inactive employees after employment but before
retirement) under the following circumstances: if the employees' rights to
those benefits are attributable to services already rendered and the rights to
those benefits accumulate or vest and if payment of the benefits is probable
and the amount of the benefits can be reasonably estimated. If the four
criteria mentioned cannot be met, the employer should accrue an obligation for
these benefits when payment is both probable and estimable. Prior to the
adoption of FAS No. 112, Midlantic accounted for postemployment benefits on a
pay-as-you-go basis.
ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES - As of January 1,
1994, Midlantic adopted FAS No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities" which establishes the accounting and reporting for
investments in equity securities that have readily determinable fair values and
for all investments in debt securities. In accordance with FAS No. 115, those
investments are classified and accounted for in three categories: (1) held to
maturity securities, which are reported at amortized cost; (2) trading
securities, which are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses
included in earnings (which is consistent with Midlantic's prior accounting
policy for such securities); and (3) available-for-sale securities, which are
reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate
component of shareholders' equity and excluded from earnings. Data for periods
prior to January 1, 1994 have not been restated.
Net unrealized holding losses on available-for-sale securities were $1.8
million at March 31, 1994, compared to a $1.9 million gain which was recorded
on January 1, 1994 when FAS No. 115 was adopted, and were included as a
component of shareholders' equity.

For a breakout of realized and unrealized gains/losses on investment
securities, see Table V "Investment Securities - Carrying and Fair Values and
Gross Unrealized Gains and Losses" and Table VI "Investment Securities - Gross
Realized Gains and Losses" on page 35.
INCOME TAXES - In the first quarter of 1993, the Corporation adopted FAS No.
109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" as a cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. The cumulative effect of this change in accounting
principle increased first quarter 1993 net income by $39.0 million or $.83 per
fully diluted common share. FAS No. 109 requires a change from the "deferred
tax method", utilized prior to 1993, to a comprehensive tax allocation using
the "liability method" of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability
method, deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences based
upon the expected tax rates in the years that payment or receipt of such taxes
is expected, and adjustment of the deferred tax asset or liability is required
to reflect subsequent changes in income tax rates. The establishment of a
valuation allowance is required for that portion of a deferred tax asset for
which a tax benefit is not expected to be realized. As of March 31, 1994, the
Corporation had approximately $84 million of FAS No. 109 valuation reserves
which represent currently unrecognized federal and state income tax benefits.
Midlantic recorded an income tax expense of $2.3 million and a benefit of $13.0
million in the first quarters of 1994 and 1993, respectively. The income tax
benefit is exclusive of the cumulative effect of Midlantic's adoption of FAS
No. 109. The tax expense recorded for the first quarter of 1994 was comprised
of a tax benefit of $23 million related to a reduction in the FAS No. 109 tax
valuation reserve less $25 million of federal and state income tax expenses on
first quarter operating earnings. The valuation
<PAGE>11
reserve adjustments are the result of Midlantic's assessment of the realization
of its deferred tax asset based upon estimated future profitability.
POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT EXPENSES
In the first quarter of 1993, the Corporation adopted FAS No. 106 "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" which requires that
the projected future cost of providing postretirement health care and other
benefits be recognized on an accrual basis during the periods employees provide
services to earn those benefits. The transition obligation, which is the
unfunded and unrecognized accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for all
plan participants at the time of adoption, is amortized by the Corporation (at
its election) on a straight-line basis over a period of 20 years, beginning in
1993 and is included as a component of net periodic postretirement cost. The
effect of the change in accounting for postretirement benefits from a cash
basis to an accrual basis did not significantly impact the Corporation's
earnings.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT - In May, 1993, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FAS No. 114 "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan" which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1994. Under FAS No. 114 an impaired loan is defined as a loan for
which it is probable, based on current information, that the lender will not
collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. FAS
No. 114 requires that impaired loans be measured based upon either the present
value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
rate, the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if
the loan is collateral dependent. Midlantic has not determined the effect of
adoption and, at this time, does not plan to elect early adoption.

MIDLANTIC CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
SUMMARY
Midlantic Corporation and Subsidiaries ("Midlantic" or the "Corporation")
reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 1994 of $45.8 million
or $.83 per fully diluted common share as compared to net income of $23.5
million, or $.48 per fully diluted common share for the corresponding period of
1993.
Income before taxes, credit provisions and certain nonrecurring gains or
charges ("operating margin") amounted to $65.4 million in the first quarter of
1994, nearly sixty percent over the level recorded in the first quarter of
1993. The increase in operating margin reflects an increase in net interest
income due to declining funding costs as well as higher loan yields resulting
from lower levels of nonaccruing loans and growth in the Corporation's consumer
loan portfolio. In addition, operating expenses were lower primarily due to
reduced FDIC assessment charges and loan workout costs as well as Midlantic's
continued commitment to expense management.
The following table summarizes Midlantic's results of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1994 and 1993:

RECENT ACTIVITIES OF THE CORPORATION
Following Midlantic's recent significant improvements in financial condition
and performance, asset quality and capital ratios, the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York ("FRB") and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") in
March 1994, terminated the written agreements under which the Corporation and
its lead bank, Midlantic National Bank ("MNB") operated. In addition, in April
1994, the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend on Midlantic's common
stock, to be paid in the second quarter, of $.10 per share, the first dividend
paid to common shareholders since the third quarter of 1990.
On April 21, 1994, the Corporation filed an application with the OCC to merge
Continental Bank ("CB") into MNB. Upon completion of this proposed merger, the
merged bank will be renamed Midlantic Bank, N.A.. Pending regulatory approval,
it is anticipated that this merger will be completed by the end of 1994.
During 1993, the Corporation completed a bulk sales program, initiated early in
the year, of distressed real estate assets with a book value of $293.6 million.
The assets sold were predominantly commercial real estate loans and other real
estate owned ("OREO") properties in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida. In
December 1993, the Corporation determined to proceed with a second major bulk
sales program involving loans and OREO with an aggregate book value, before
charge-offs, that totalled approximately $335 million at March 31, 1994. The
assets for sale, which have been reclassified in the Corporation's balance
sheet to other assets as "assets held for accelerated disposition,"
predominantly represent real estate development loans and holdings of land in
New Jersey and Pennsylvania. By the end of April 1994, Midlantic resolved or
sold approximately 20 percent of these assets. Disposition of the balance of
assets held for accelerated disposition, anticipated to be completed during the
remainder of 1994, is subject to satisfaction of various conditions including
customary closing conditions and in some cases successful negotiation of terms
and execution of definitive agreements. No assurance can be given that the
disposition of these assets will be consummated or that, if consummated, all of
the assets presently anticipated to be included in such bulk sales will be
sold. At March 31, 1994, assets held for accelerated disposition, which are
carried at fair value less the estimated cost of disposing of the properties
("net realizable value"), amounted to $174.8 million. In April 1994, the
Corporation added certain loans and OREO, not previously identified for sale,
to assets held for accelerated disposition.
During the third quarter of 1993 the Corporation announced its Business Value
Banking sm program for the purpose of providing banking services to small
businesses in Midlantic's market area. In conjunction with the program, the
Corporation also announced a $1 billion lending initiative to small and medium-
sized commercial businesses. A major marketing program has recently commenced
to communicate Midlantic's commitment to build a greater presence in its
business market.
In the second quarter of 1993, the Corporation bolstered its capital base
through the issuance, in a public offering, of 5.75 million shares of common
stock for net proceeds of $107.1 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FIRST QUARTER 1994 VS FIRST QUARTER 1993
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income ("NII") for the first quarter of 1994 exceeded that of the
first quarter of 1993 by $17.2 million or 14.5 percent.

</TABLE>
NII for the first quarter of 1994 as compared with the first quarter of 1993
was primarily affected by declining funding costs relative to asset yields.
Lower levels of nonaccrual assets moderated the unfavorable affect of a decline
in interest-earning assets on NII.
Average interest-earning assets declined $326.1 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1994 when compared with average interest-earning assets for the
corresponding period of 1993. This primarily reflected a contraction in
average loans of $438.3 million. Loans sold in bulk sales or identified for
accelerated disposition and charge offs were partly responsible for the
decrease in loans in the first quarter of 1994. On average, consumer loans
were $666.1 million or 40.4 percent higher than in the first quarter of 1993.
However, commercial loans fell by $409.4 million or 12.3 percent when comparing
average balances for the first quarters of 1994 and 1993. Excluding real
estate loans, which continue to decline as older credits runoff, loan growth
during the first quarter of 1994 was stronger than in recent quarterly periods.
Commercial loans and consumer loans increased in the aggregate by $190.7
million or 3.6 percent from the balance at December 31, 1993.
The small net decline in average interest-earning assets reflects a lower level
of interest-bearing funding. There is evidence that the decrease in interest-
bearing deposits may be partially a result of an industry-wide movement of
depositors' funds to non-deposit instruments.

The net interest margin in the first quarter of 1994 was 66 basis points higher
than in the corresponding period of 1993. The increase in net interest margin
reflected a 65 basis points decline in the rate paid on total sources of funds
(particularly retail deposits) and a 1 basis point increase in the yield on
interest-earning assets.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses was $7.5 million for the first quarter of 1994
and $20.0 million for the first quarter of 1993. Based upon Midlantic's
methodology for establishing an allowance for loan losses as discussed under
the "Asset Quality" and "Allowance for Loan Losses" sections of this report,
Midlantic concluded that its allowance for loan losses, after giving effect to
the 1994 loan loss provision, was adequate at March 31, 1994 to absorb
estimated losses in its credit portfolios.

tool that matches asset allocation to the trust or investment client's risk and
return objectives.

Service charge income grew by $668 thousand or 3.7 percent for the first
quarter of 1994. The repricing of services contributed to higher income
levels.
Net investment securities gains amounted to $1.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1994 compared with net gains of $4.9 million during the first
quarter of 1993. Gains in 1994 were realized primarily from the sale of nearly
$150 million of U.S. Treasury securities in the Corporation's available for
sale investment portfolio. Gains in 1993 were realized from the sale of $562
million of U.S. Treasury securities that were previously identified for sale.

</TABLE>
Salaries and benefits expense increased $1.9 million or 3.5 percent for the
three months ended March 31, 1994. The increase in salaries and benefits
expense primarily reflected expenses incurred for Midlantic's "401(k)" employee
savings plan which was established during the third quarter of 1993 and other
employee incentive plans, partially offset by an approximate 8 percent decline
in the number of full-time equivalent employees.
In regard to net occupancy and equipment related expenses, higher repairs and
maintenance expenses, due largely to heavier than normal snow and ice removal
costs, were more than offset by the renegotiation of equipment rental contracts
and a decline in depreciation.
Expenses associated with OREO declined $52.4 million for the first quarter of
1994 when compared with the corresponding period of 1993. Included in the
first quarter 1994 and 1993 expenses were charges of $3.5 million and $21.1
million, respectively, which adjusted the carrying value of certain OREO
properties to approximate net realizable value. The $17.7 million or 83.5
percent decline in such adjustments is due to lower levels of OREO holdings and
to an apparent price stabilization in many real estate markets as reflected by
appraisals received on OREO properties. In the first quarter of 1993, $34.0
million was also provided against those OREO properties that were transferred
to "assets held for accelerated disposition" and subsequently sold later in the
year. Such special provision represented the adjustment to carrying values
necessary in the Corporation's judgment to reflect the net realizable value of
those assets when liquidated in an accelerated manner in bulk sales
transactions. OREO expenses in both 1994 and 1993 also included operating
costs, net of rental income for OREO properties and net gains or losses on the
sale of OREO.
<PAGE>17
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") assessment decreased by $2.0
million or 22.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 1994, as a result
of a decline in the premium paid by Midlantic's bank subsidiaries. The level
of expenses in the first quarter of 1993 had increased following imposition of
a new risk-based assessment system which was adopted by the FDIC as of January
1, 1993. The assessment fees on Midlantic's bank subsidiaries were reduced
later in 1993 and again as of January 1, 1994.
The decline in legal and professional fees of $1.5 million or 13.5 percent for
the first quarter of 1994, was primarily due to a reduction in loan workout
expenses primarily reflecting the Corporation's lower level of problem assets.
Miscellaneous expenses decreased $3.5 million or 12.3 percent in the first
quarter of 1994 compared to the first quarter of the previous year. Expense
levels were generally lower than those of last year reflecting the
Corporation's continued dedication to expense management.
INCOME TAXES
ADOPTION OF FAS NO. 109
In the first quarter of 1993, Midlantic adopted Financial Accounting Standards
("FAS") No. 109. FAS No. 109 requires a shift from the "deferred tax method",
formerly utilized, to the "liability method" of accounting for income taxes and
the establishment, when required, of a valuation allowance for deferred tax
assets. Midlantic adopted FAS No. 109 by recognizing the effect of adoption as
a cumulative change in accounting principle. The adoption of FAS No. 109
provided the Corporation with an income credit, realized in the first quarter
of 1993, of $39.0 million or $.83 per fully diluted common share. As of March
31, 1994, the Corporation had approximately $84 million of FAS No. 109
valuation reserves, which represent currently unrecognized federal and state
income tax benefits.
GENERAL
Midlantic recorded an income tax expense of $2.3 million in the first quarter
of 1994 and a tax benefit of $13.0 million in the first quarter 1993. The tax
expense recorded for the first quarter of 1994 was comprised of a tax benefit
of $23 million related to a reduction in the FAS No. 109 tax valuation reserve
and $25 million of federal and state income tax expenses on first quarter
operating earnings. The tax benefit for the first quarter of 1993 was related
to a reduction in the FAS No. 109 tax valuation reserve. The valuation reserve
adjustments are the result of Midlantic's assessment of the realization of its
deferred tax asset based upon estimated future profitability.
<PAGE>18
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT EXPENSES
In the first quarter of 1994, Midlantic adopted FAS No. 112 "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" as a cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle amounting to a charge of $7.5 million, net of income
taxes, or $.14 per fully diluted common share. FAS No. 112 requires accrual
accounting for certain postemployment benefits (benefits such as disability and
health coverage to former or inactive employees after employment but before
retirement) under the following circumstances: if the employees' rights to
those benefits are attributable to services already rendered, the rights to
those benefits accumulate or vest, and if payment of the benefits is probable
and the amount of the benefits can be reasonably estimated. If the four
criteria mentioned cannot be met, the employer should accrue an obligation for
these benefits when payment is both probable and estimable. Midlantic
previously accounted for postemployment benefits on a pay-as-you-go basis.
POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT EXPENSES
In the first quarter of 1993, the Corporation adopted FAS No. 106 "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" which requires that
the projected future cost of providing postretirement health care and other
benefits be recognized on an accrual basis during the periods employees provide
services to earn those benefits. The transition obligation, which is the
unfunded and unrecognized accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for all
plan participants at the time of adoption, is amortized by the Corporation (at
its election) on a straight-line basis over a period of 20 years, beginning in
1993 and is included as a component of net periodic postretirement cost. The
effect of the change in accounting for postretirement benefits from a cash
basis to an accrual basis did not significantly impact the Corporation's
earnings.
<PAGE>19
FINANCIAL CONDITION
MARCH 31, 1994 VS. DECEMBER 31, 1993
ASSET QUALITY
Midlantic has made significant progress in improving asset quality in recent
years as nonaccrual loans and OREO were reduced from the peak levels
experienced in 1991, amounting to over 12 percent of loans and OREO outstanding
at that time, to less than 5 percent at the end of 1993 (excluding assets held
for accelerated disposition which are carried at net realizable value).
Further improvement is expected but, with a much smaller level of nonaccruing
and OREO assets, management expects that the rate of improvement will likely be
somewhat less rapid than in the preceding two years. As of March 31, 1994,
nonaccrual loans and OREO assets totalled $374.5 million or 4.4 percent of
loans and OREO outstanding compared to $398.0 million or 4.7 percent at the end
of 1993.
Changes in nonaccrual loan totals are summarized in Table XV. At March 31,
1994, nonaccrual loans were primarily comprised of commercial and financial
(50.4 percent of the total), long-term commercial mortgages (21.1 percent of
the total) and construction and development loans (15.9 percent of the total).
The relationship of each of these categories of nonaccrual loans to its
respective loan portfolio was 4.2 percent commercial and financial; 3.3 percent
long-term commercial mortgage; and 5.1 percent construction and development.
Construction and development loans and long-term commercial mortgage loans
("commercial real estate loans") that were nonaccrual at quarter-end 1994
collectively amounted to $93.9 million, of which 27.4 percent comprised
industrial/warehouse, 18.0 percent land, 15.3 percent residential properties,
and 9.0 percent office buildings. Total commercial real estate loans declined
significantly during the past twelve months as indicated in the following
table:

______ ______ ______
Total commercial real
estate loans $2,420 $2,499 $3,066
====== ====== ======
</TABLE>
The decline in total commercial real estate loans was primarily due to
principal paydowns, the transfer of loans to OREO, loan charge-offs and loans
sold in bulk sales or identified for possible bulk sale. In anticipation of
possible bulk sales, during the fourth quarter of 1993 and the first quarter of
1994, the Corporation transferred commercial real estate loans with an
aggregate book value of approximately $260 million to other assets as "assets
held for accelerated disposition." Management's intention is to further reduce
construction and development loan exposure through sales and paydowns.
The level of commercial nonaccrual loans, which increased $13.2 million since
December 31, 1993, reflects the continued impact of a relatively weak business
recovery in Midlantic's core market area.
<PAGE>20
Future levels of nonaccrual loans will continue to be dependent upon the
economy. Stronger than expected economic growth would tend to result in
reductions in nonaccrual loans while a deterioration in economic conditions
would tend to have the opposite effect.
It is not possible to precisely predict the extent of losses which may
ultimately be incurred from Midlantic's remaining nonaccrual loans at the end
of the first quarter of 1994. Such loans are often partially or fully secured
and since the total is much lower than the comparable totals of a year ago, the
relative aggregate risk of loss to the Corporation has been reduced.
Midlantic has restructured certain loans in accordance with the requirements of
FAS No. 15 "Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt
Restructurings" in instances where a determination was made that greater
economic value would be realized under new terms than through foreclosure,
liquidation or other disposition. When restructured loans can demonstrate
performance (as generally evidenced by six months of pre- or post-restructuring
payment performance in accordance with the restructured terms, or by the
presence of other significant factors) such loans are classified by the
Corporation as "renegotiated loans" and accrual of interest resumes. Prior to
demonstrating performance, restructured loans are classified as nonaccrual.
Renegotiated loans amounted to $165.5 million at March 31, 1994 compared with
$172.1 million at year-end 1993 (see Table XIII). The average current yield
recognized as interest on accruing renegotiated loans is 6.42 percent. The
effective interest rate as calculated under FAS No. 15 on these renegotiated
loans is 7.33 percent. In those cases in which average current yield differs
from the effective yield, Midlantic's management has elected to recognize
income prospectively on the more conservative average current yield basis until
certain contingencies are met.
OREO (in-substance foreclosures and acquired OREO properties) amounted to
$121.0 million at March 31, 1994, down $11.7 million or 8.8 percent from the
December 31, 1993 level of $132.7 million. At March 31, 1994, in-substance
foreclosures amounted to $33.5 million and acquired OREO properties were $87.5
million as compared with levels of $35.4 million and $97.2 million,
respectively, at December 31, 1993. The decline in total OREO since December
31, 1993 primarily reflected OREO properties sold of $13.1 million, writedowns
of $3.5 million and additions to OREO totalling $5.7 million (see Table XVIII).
Accruing loans past due ninety days or more as to interest or principal
payments amounted to $20.9 million and $36.2 million at March 31, 1994 and
December 31, 1993, respectively.
As of the end of the first quarter of 1994, Midlantic had identified an
additional $54.0 million of currently performing loans outstanding for which
there is serious doubt as to whether the borrowers will be able to fully comply
with the present repayment terms of the loans.
Midlantic originated or participated in highly leveraged transactions ("HLTs"),
which represent loans for the buyout, acquisition or recapitalization of an
existing business resulting in a significant increase in the leverage of the
borrower. Based upon the bank regulators' February 1992 revised supervisory
definition, 20 HLTs in the amount of $177.7 million were outstanding at March
31, 1994 and Midlantic is committed to lend an additional $97.9 million
primarily to these HLT borrowers. At December 31, 1993, Midlantic had 22
reportable HLT outstandings amounting to $198.9 million
<PAGE>21
and unfunded commitments to HLT borrowers of $107.6 million. Midlantic's
entire HLT exposure is comprised of senior debt. HLTs comprised 2.1 percent
of total loans at March 31, 1994 and their contribution to total revenue was
modest.
The Corporation's foreign outstandings (principally money market assets) at
March 31, 1994, all of which were dollar denominated, amounted to $680.6
million or 5.0 percent of total consolidated assets as compared with $637.9
million or 4.6 percent at year-end, 1993. The majority of foreign outstandings
are short-term money market investments with domestic subsidiaries of foreign
banks. At March 31, 1994, foreign outstandings to individual countries
exceeding .75 percent of total assets, were France, Canada and Germany
(amounting to 1.3 percent, .9 percent and .8 percent, respectively, of total
assets). At December 31, 1993, foreign outstandings to France, Japan and
Switzerland amounted to 1.1 percent, .9 percent and .9 percent of total assets,
respectively. Substantially all of these outstandings were with banks.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Midlantic considers various factors in determining the appropriate level of the
allowance for loan losses, including an assessment of the financial condition
of individual borrowers, a determination of the value and adequacy of
underlying collateral (based on appraisals, where appropriate or required), the
composition and balance of the credit portfolio, a review of historical loss
experience and an analysis of the levels and trends of delinquencies, charge-
offs and the risk ratings of the various loan categories and criticized loans.
Such factors as the condition of the national and regional economies and the
level and trend of interest rates are also considered. Additions to the
allowance are made through provisions charged against current operations and
through any recoveries on loans previously charged off. Midlantic's allowance
for loan losses amounted to 4.56 percent and 4.74 percent of total loans, net
of unearned income, at March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively. The
decline in this ratio reflects the decrease in nonaccrual loans and the
related allowances allocated to those nonaccrual loans. At both March 31, 1994
and December 31, 1993, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual
loans amounted to approximately 150 percent.
As part of its process for assessing asset quality and the allowance for loan
losses, Midlantic refers to third party sources for data concerning economic
trends. This information indicates that the economies of Midlantic's primary
real estate lending markets have been adversely affected by overall corporate
downsizing, increasing unemployment, declining real estate values, diminishing
consumer confidence levels and relatively high debt levels. While certain
markets began to show signs of improvement or stabilization since late 1992,
this followed two years (1990 and 1991) of significant deterioration in the
value and marketability of all real estate types.
In connection with the bulk sale or designation for possible bulk sale of
distressed real estate loans, during 1993, the Corporation charged-off a net
$181.9 million of loans. During the first three months of 1994 a net $7.9
million was charged-off on loans designated during this period as held for
accelerated disposition.
Midlantic's net charge-offs of $12.9 million for the first three months of 1994
compared with $28.9 million for the corresponding period of 1993 (which
<PAGE>22
does not include the above-mentioned charge-offs on loans sold in bulk sales
transactions or loans identified for possible bulk sale). Net charge-offs as a
percent of average loans, on an annualized basis, amounted to .63 percent, as
compared with 1.35 percent for the first three months of 1993 and 1.95 percent
for the year ended December 31, 1993. Net charge-offs in 1994 principally
reflected net losses incurred on commercial and financial loans ($5.1 million),
commercial real estate loans ($4.1 million) and loans to individuals ($3.3
million).
As part of its process to assess credit quality, Midlantic utilizes its risk
rating system to analyze its loans. The risk rating system monitors the risk
trends in Midlantic's loan portfolio and assists in establishing an adequate
allowance for loan losses. The rating system assigns a separate numerical
rating to each credit based upon an assessment of the degree of risk inherent
in each loan. Regular audits and reviews test the risk ratings, the integrity
of the loan management information system and the adherence to credit policies
and procedures. Reviews are also conducted to test portfolio, industry and
borrower risk trends.
Midlantic considers its allowance for loan losses to be adequate based upon the
size and risk characteristics of the credit portfolio outstanding at March 31,
1994, including the uncertainties that prevail in the economy, most notably in
the real estate market. If economic conditions were to deteriorate
significantly, future provisions for loan losses could increase above the level
taken in the first quarter of 1994 in order to maintain an adequate allowance
for loan losses.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
In the first quarter of 1994, Midlantic adopted FAS No. 115 "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". FAS No. 115 established
the accounting and reporting for investments in equity securities that have
readily determinable fair values and for all investments in debt securities.
Under the provisions of FAS No. 115, those investments have been classified
into three categories: (1) held to maturity securities which the Corporation
has both the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are reported at
amortized/accreted cost; (2) trading securities, which are purchased and held
principally for the purpose of selling in the near-term, are reported at fair
value with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings, (which is
consistent with Midlantic's prior accounting policy for such securities); and
(3) available for sale securities ("AFS securities"), which do not meet the
criteria of the other two categories, are reported at fair value with
unrealized gains or losses, net of applicable income taxes, reported as
"net unrealized holding gains (losses) on available for sale securities, net of
taxes," a separate category of shareholders' equity.
At March 31, 1994, investment securities totalled $2.4 billion (based upon the
provisions of FAS No. 115), virtually unchanged from the $2.5 billion recorded
at December 31, 1993. The investment securities portfolio at March 31, 1994
included $1.6 billion of held to maturity securities, $792.1 million of AFS
securities and $32.5 million of trading account securities. On March 31, 1994,
Midlantic recorded as a component of shareholders' equity, an unrealized
holding loss on AFS securities of $1.8 million, compared to a $1.9 million gain
recorded at the beginning of the year, when FAS No. 115 was adopted.
Increasing interest rates, particularly on U.S. government securities, resulted
in the unrealized holding loss.
<PAGE>23
Net unrealized depreciation on Midlantic's held to maturity portfolio amounted
to $4.8 million at March 31, 1994, which was comprised of gross unrealized
losses of $11.4 million and gross unrealized gains of $6.6 million (see Table
V). At December 31, 1993, the Corporation had net unrealized appreciation of
$12.4 million on its total investment securities portfolio, which was comprised
of gross unrealized gains of $13.9 million and gross unrealized losses of $1.5
million.
At quarter-end 1994, the available for sale portfolio consisted of $731.5
million of U.S. Treasury obligations with a remaining maturity of
approximately 1.0 years and debt, equity and state and municipal securities
totalling $60.6 million. The held to maturity portfolio, which had an average
maturity of 3.8 years at March 31, 1994, is comprised of $1.0 billion of
federal agency mortgage-backed securities (with a weighted average maturity of
approximately six years) and $577.0 million of shorter-term U.S. Treasury
securities. The average maturity of the investment portfolio outstanding on
December 31, 1993 amounted to approximately 3 years.
MONEY MARKET INVESTMENTS
The Corporation presently invests a sizable portion of its available funds in
short-term money market investments, including federal funds sold, term federal
funds sold, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, repurchase agreements and
commercial paper. At March 31, 1994, money market investments totalled $1.5
billion or 12.3 percent of total interest-earning assets compared with $1.8
billion or 14.1 percent of interest-earning assets at year-end 1993. Midlantic
anticipates that over time a portion of these liquid assets will be utilized to
fund loan demand.
INTEREST SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT
Interest rate risk refers to the periodic and cumulative exposure from changes
in interest rates on earnings and capital. While Midlantic, like any financial
intermediary, will typically incur some amount of interest rate risk in the
normal course of providing services to its borrowing customers and depositors,
the Corporation's policy is to protect its earnings and capital from undue
exposure to volatile interest rates. Midlantic's Asset-Liability Committee
("ALCO") assesses the degree of this risk by simulating the Corporation's
earnings under alternative balance sheet structures and under a variety of
interest rate scenarios, with the actual amount of such risk typically
maintained at a manageable percentage of core net interest income and capital.
Earnings exposure to interest rates arises from a variety of factors, a primary
source being any mismatches in the maturity and repricing distribution of the
Corporation's assets and liabilities. For example, at any point in time, if
more of the Corporation's outstanding assets are scheduled to mature or to
reprice earlier than its liabilities, the Corporation's earnings may be
vulnerable to a decline in the general level of interest rates because in this
circumstance the Corporation's asset yields would decline sooner than its
funding costs. Conversely, if more of the Corporation's liabilities reprice or
mature earlier than its assets, earnings may be exposed to an increase in the
general level of interest rates since funding costs would tend to rise before
asset yields. This type of risk is approximately illustrated in the "static
gap" model which expresses the assets and liabilities due to mature, to be
repriced, or assumed to be repriced in various time intervals. Within one year
of March 31, 1994, Midlantic had approximately $545 million more liabilities
maturing or repricing than assets. This March 31, 1994 gap indicated a
possible decline in NII if interest rates increase immediately.
<PAGE>24
The calculated amount of prospective NII at risk to interest rate changes
within one year is estimated to be about 3 percent (assuming interest rate
volatility is similar to that experienced during the past several years) and in
line with the Corporation's policy parameters in this regard. Midlantic
manages its interest sensitivity position with an objective of avoiding
material mismatching of the amounts of assets and liabilities subject to rate
changes within each time interval.
In order to maintain earnings and capital exposure to interest rate changes
within prudent bounds, Midlantic utilizes interest rate swaps to hedge existing
balance sheet items that have a high degree of inverse rate correlation to the
swap. Most of the interest rate swaps outstanding as of March 31, 1994
entitled Midlantic to receive or pay a fixed rate of interest to the final
maturity of each swap in exchange for a variable rate of interest, which is
reset quarterly and generally tied to the three month LIBOR (an internationally
recognized interest rate index).

The notional amounts listed in the above table represent the base on which
interest due each counterparty is calculated. The notional amounts do not
represent amounts actually exchanged by the counterparties and are therefore
not recorded on the balance sheet. At March 31, 1994, Midlantic did not have
any interest swaps or forward interest rate swap agreements tied other than to
a fixed rate, LIBOR or prime rate, nor did the Corporation maintain or utilize,
at that time, any exchange traded futures contracts, options or other exchange
traded off-balance sheet derivative transactions. At that date, Midlantic did
not engage in any swap transactions as an intermediary, although the
Corporation may decide to do so in the future if customer demand warrants.
At March 31, 1994, the Corporation used interest rate swaps for which it
received interest at a fixed rate to hedge certain loans and fixed cost
deposits and other funding. For those swaps on which Midlantic has agreed to
pay a fixed rate, the hedged items are generally investment securities bearing
fixed rates of interest with stated maturities of five to seven years.
During the first quarter of 1994, the Corporation entered into $200.0 million
(notional amount) of swap contracts in which it pays an interest rate tied to
the prime rate and receives LIBOR (representing the only significant activity
in the Corporation's interest rate swap accounts during the quarter). The
purpose of these contracts is to hedge against the risk that funding costs
could rise faster than the interest earned on earnings assets whose yields
adjust to changes in the prime rate. As of March 31, 1994, there were no
terminated swap contracts and accordingly, no deferred gains or losses.
<PAGE>25
Credit risk associated with interest rate swap contracts arises from the
potential for a counterparty to default on its obligations. Midlantic attempts
to limit credit risk by transacting only with the most creditworthy
counterparties. All counterparties to contracts in place as of March 31, 1994
were associated with organizations having securities rated as investment grade
by independent rating agencies.
As of March 31, 1994, the estimated credit exposure associated with interest
rate swap contracts was approximately $85 million representing those swaps that
show a positive (favorable) mark-to-market position (see table below). The
following table summarizes the maturities of the notional amounts of all swap
contracts in place as of March 31, 1994. Net interest income recorded by the
Corporation in the first quarter of 1994 for all interest rate swap contracts
amounted to $14.3 million. Management believes that the swap contracts it has
in place as of March 31, 1994 have been effective tools in the control of
interest rate risk.

LIQUIDITY
GENERAL
Liquidity represents the Corporation's ability to efficiently fulfill its
funding obligations at reasonable cost. Through its ALCO, Midlantic addresses
the liquidity requirements of its holding companies and its major bank and
nonbank subsidiaries on both a short-term and long-term basis using a variety
of operating scenarios that take into account the effect of both quantitative
and qualitative influences. These influences include national and regional
economic conditions, the interest rate environment, loan quality, unfunded
commitments, projections of deposit and loan growth and key ratio analyses. On
a longer-term basis, liquidity is projected using investment and funding
alternatives that take into consideration the Corporation's strategic
objectives.
<PAGE>26
Major sources of liquidity include short-term money market investments,
maturing investments in U.S. government and other investment securities and
proceeds from loan maturities or paydowns, as well as core deposits and the
ability to access large liability funding sources (primarily large CD's,
federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements). Such sources of liquidity
may be used to fund loan originations, depositor withdrawals and other demands
on the Corporation's liquid resources.
To fund future loan growth, Midlantic expects to first utilize a major portion
of its money market investments and proceeds from scheduled loan payments.
Liquidity may also continue to be generated by the possible sale or
securitization of existing assets as well as through increases in core deposits
to the extent available.

</TABLE>
At March 31, 1994, Midlantic had unfunded loan commitments outstanding of $2.8
billion as compared with $2.7 billion at December 31, 1993. Takedowns on
commitments have been occurring during the normal course of business at levels
that are historically predictable.
PARENT COMPANIES
Midlantic Corporation ("MC") and its lower-tier holding company, Midlantic
Banks Inc. ("parent companies") require sources of funds to meet contractual
obligations, including servicing long-term debt, and cash dividend payments on
the Corporation's preferred and common stock.
The parent companies' liquidity (cash on hand, money market investments and
available for sale securities), which is managed in conjunction with the short-
term resources of the Corporation's nonbank subsidiaries, aggregated $224.5
million at March 31, 1994 compared to $234.6 million at December 31, 1993.
During the first quarter of 1993, the Corporation paid at maturity $50 million
of its 11.35% Notes and obtained a federal income tax refund of approximately
$40 million. The parent companies' liquidity position was enhanced in the
second quarter of 1993 by the proceeds of $107.1 million from the issuance of
common stock (see "Recent Activities of the Corporation"). In the first
quarter of 1994, the Corporation redeemed at par value ($11.8 million), the
remaining outstanding 7 3/4% Debentures. Ongoing parent company
<PAGE>27
operating and interest expenses and dividends are expected to be fully funded
from dividend payments and management fees from MNB and CB.
As a result of MNB's financial progress over the past several quarterly
periods, on April 13, 1994, the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend by
MNB to its parent (the last dividend paid by MNB was in the first quarter of
1990). Under certain circumstances, CB requires advance approval from the FDIC
and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking to pay dividends. CB has remitted
uninterrupted dividends since the third quarter of 1992.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Midlantic places a high priority on capital adequacy in order to exceed minimum
bank regulatory guidelines and position the organization to compete effectively
in its market areas.
In recent years, Midlantic has increased its capital position through a variety
of actions including common stock offerings in August 1992 and May 1993. As a
result, the Corporation's capital ratios as well as the capital ratios of MNB
and CB have significantly improved. Federal bank regulators utilize risk-based
and leverage ratios to assess capital adequacy. As of March 31, 1994,
Midlantic reported a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 9.95 percent, a total
risk-based capital ratio (tier 1 plus tier 2 capital) of 13.98 percent and a
leverage ratio of 7.35 percent. These ratios compare with minimum regulatory
guidelines of 4.00 percent for tier 1, 8.00 percent for total capital and 3.00
percent for leverage.
As of March 31, 1994, MNB had a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 11.97
percent and a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.26 percent. MNB's leverage
ratio as of March 31, 1994 was 8.52 percent. At March 31, 1994, CB exceeded
all risk-based capital requirements with a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of
9.99 percent, a total risk-based capital ratio of 11.26 percent and a leverage
ratio of 8.12 percent.

</TABLE>
On March 23, 1994, the Board of Directors approved the payment of the second
quarter dividend on the Term Adjustable Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock -
Series A (the "Preferred Stock") in cash. Prior to this, based upon a July
22, 1992 agreement between Midlantic and the holders of the Preferred Stock,
dividends on the Preferred Stock were paid through the issuance of shares of
Midlantic's common stock in lieu of a cash payment. Pursuant to the agreement,
Midlantic may at its discretion pay dividends in cash or shares of common stock
or any combination thereof, so long as any such issuance would not result in
the holder of the Preferred Stock being the beneficial owner of more than 4.99
percent of the outstanding shares of Midlantic's common stock.
As mentioned in "Recent Activities of the Corporation," on April 13, 1994, the
Board of Directors reinstated a quarterly cash dividend on Midlantic's common
stock of $.10 per common share.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As Midlantic Corporation ("MC") reported in "Item
3 - Legal Proceedings" of its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1993, MC and various present and former directors
and officers of MC are defendants in a
consolidated action, initially commenced in March
1990, pending in Federal District Court in New
Jersey (the "Action"). The Action has been
instituted by shareholders of MC, either on behalf
of MC against various directors and officers of
MC, or directly against MC and various directors
and officers of MC. In general, the Action seeks
damages payable either to MC or to the
shareholders and holders of certain debt
securities because of alleged discrepancies
between certain public statements made by MC and
later results of MC's operations. The Action
includes claims that certain actions of MC are
void. The claims are based upon alleged
violations of the United States securities laws
and New Jersey common law. In their pleadings,
plantiffs do not seek damages in a stated dollar
amount.
In June 1990, the plaintiffs filed a motion for
class certification. The defendants moved to
dismiss the complaint on July 31, 1990. On
October 11, 1990, the Court filed an opinion
denying the defendants' motion to dismiss the
complaint. On December 3, 1990, an answer to the
complaint was served on behalf of those defendants
who had been served with the complaint. The
parties have stipulated to the certification of a
plaintiff class, which stipulation was reflected
in an order entered by the Court on March 6, 1991.
On May 6, 1991, the court entered a consent order
setting forth a discovery schedule for the
production of documents by MC. Currently,
documents are being produced and depositions are
being conducted.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of
the agreements herein contained, the parties agree as follows:
1. CB shall be merged into and under the Charter and
Articles of Association of MNB pursuant to the provisions of,
and with the effect provided in, Section 2 of Chapter 209 of
the Act of Congress, of November 7, 1918, as amended (12
U.S.C. 215a).
<PAGE> 51
2. Upon the merger becoming effective, (i) the name of
the receiving association (hereinafter called the "Continuing
Bank" whenever reference is made to it as of the time of the
merger or thereafter) shall be "Midlantic Bank, National
Association", (ii) its Articles of Association shall be as set
forth in Schedule A attached hereto and made a part hereof
with such amendments authorized by the respective shareholders
of MNB and CB at or before the time the merger becomes
effective, (iii) the By-Laws of MNB in effect immediately

3. Upon the merger becoming effective, the corporate

deemed to be the same corporation as CB and MNB. All rights,
franchises and interests of CB and MNB, respectively, in and
to every type of property (real, personal and mixed) and
choses in action shall be transferred to and vested in the
Continuing Bank by virtue of such merger without any deed or
other transfer, and the Continuing Bank, without any order or
other action on the part of any court or otherwise, shall hold

including appointments, designations and nominations and all
other rights and interests as trustee, executor,
administrator, registrar of stocks and bonds, guardian of
estates, assignee, receiver, and committee of estates of

manner and to the same extent as such rights, franchises and
interests were held or enjoyed by MNB and CB respectively, at
the time the merger becomes effective. The Continuing Bank
shall be liable for all liabilities of CB, and all deposits,
debts, liabilities, obligations and contracts of CB and of
MNB, respectively, matured or unmatured, whether accrued,
absolute, contingent or otherwise, and whether or not
reflected or reserved against on balance sheets, books of
account, or records of CB or MNB, as the case may be, shall be
those of the Continuing Bank, and shall not be released or
impaired by the merger, and all rights of creditors and other
obligees and all liens on property of either CB or MNB shall
be preserved unimpaired.
4. Upon the merger becoming effective:
(a) The holder of the outstanding shares of CB Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive from MBI in exchange for
the aggregate of all shares of CB Common Stock held by such
holder 600 shares of the Common Stock of MBI, of no par value
(the "MBI Common Stock").
<PAGE> 52
(b) On the date the merger becomes effective, each

Stock, as are issuable in the merger with respect thereto.
Outstanding certificates evidencing shares of CB Common
Stock shall, after the time the merger becomes effective,
evidence only the right of the holder thereof to receive
certificates for shares of MBI Common Stock. Upon the
effective date of the merger, MBI will deliver to the CB
Common Stock shareholder a certificate for the aggregate
number of shares of MBI Common Stock to which such shareholder
shall be entitled, determined as provided herein. Upon
surrender of said certificates representing CB Common Stock
and acceptance thereof by MBI, the CB Common Stock shareholder
will receive in exchange therefor a certificate for the number
of whole shares of MBI Common Stock to which such shareholder
is entitled hereunder.
(c) The amount and the number of shares of the capital
stock of the Continuing Bank outstanding upon the merger
becoming effective shall be $114,128,105 divided into
