all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of the balance
sheet, condensed statement of income and statement of cash flows in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements should

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Six Month
Periods Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
Net Interest Income
- -------------------
The Corporation's principal source of earnings is net interest income, the
difference between total interest income and total interest expense. Net
interest income increased by $1.5 million or 9.1% to $17.8 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $16.3 million for the second quarter of
1995. The following table indicates that the tax equivalent net interest margin
(defined as net interest income divided by average earning assets) increased to
5.34% for the second quarter of 1996 compared to 5.26% for the second quarter of
1995.

Average interest-earning assets increased by 7.6% to $1,353 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same quarter in 1995. Net average
loans outstanding increased by 1.1% to $992 million for the second quarter of
1996 compared to the same period in 1995. Average investment securities
including money markets increased by 30.7% to $361 million in 1996 compared to
$276 million in 1995. The growth in average net loans outstanding of 1.1% in
1996 is somewhat slower than the 10.4% loan growth rate in the second quarter of
1995. The primary reason for the slower growth in net average loan balances has
been weaker loan demand. Excess funds generated from the growth of
interest-bearing deposits, and not needed to fund loans, have increased average
investment securities and money markets by 30.7%.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by 6.2% to $1,154 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same quarter in 1995. This
increase was due to a 9.2% increase in average interest-bearing deposits to
$1,048 million in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the same quarter in
1995. The increase in average interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to an
increase in the average balance of certificates of deposit which have been more
attractive to customers due to higher interest rates being paid on these
deposits.
For the three months ended June 30, 1996, the net interest spread improved to
4.72% compared to 4.68% for the same quarter in 1995. The average yield on
interest-earning assets increased by .01% to 8.93% and the average cost of
interest-bearing liabilities decreased by .03% to 4.21%. The net interest margin
increased to 5.34% for the second quarter of 1996 compared to 5.26% for the same
quarter in 1995. The increase in the net interest margin was due to the increase
in the net interest spread and the increase in the amount of excess
interest-earning assets.
Net interest income increased by $3.5 million or 10.8% to $35.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $31.9 million for the same period in
1995. The following table indicates that the tax equivalent net interest margin
increased to 5.32% for the first half of 1996 compared to 5.22% for the first
half of 1995.

Average interest-earning assets increased by 8.4% to $1,349 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. Net average
loans outstanding increased by 2.1% to $992 million for the first half of 1996
compared to the same period in 1995. Average investment securities including
money markets increased by 30.9% to $357 million in 1996 compared to $273
million in 1995. The primary reason for the slow growth in net average loan
balances has been weaker loan demand. Excess funds generated from the growth of
interest-bearing deposits, and not needed to fund loans, have increased average
investment securities and money market by 30.9%.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by 6.6% to $1,151 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. This
increase was due to a 9.5% increase in average interest-bearing deposits to
$1,037 million for the first half of 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.
The increase in average interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to an
increase in the average balance of certificates of deposit.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the net interest spread improved to
4.68% compared to 4.67% for the same period in 1995. The average yield on
interest-earning assets increased by .16% to 8.95% and the average cost of
interest-bearing liabilities increased by .15% to 4.27%. The net interest margin
increased to 5.32% for the first half of 1996 compared to 5.22% for the same
period in 1995. This increase was primarily due to both the increase in the
amount of excess interest-earning assets and the increase in the yield on those
assets to 8.95% in 1996 compared to 8.79% in 1995.

<PAGE> 12
Provision For Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The provision for loan losses increased by $5,000 to $1,005,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 and by $100,000 to $2,010,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995. Net charge-offs were
$317,000 and $518,000, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1996 compared to net charge-offs of $230,000 and $246,000,
respectively, for the same periods in 1995. Non-performing loans, defined as
loans that are 90 days past due, renegotiated loans and non-accrual loans, were
$4.2 million or .41% of loans at June 30, 1996 compared to $4.5 million or .43%
of loans at December 31, 1995 and $5.0 million or .50% of loans at June 30,
1995. The reserve for loan losses as a percentage of outstanding loans was 2.58%
at June 30, 1996 compared to 2.45% at December 31, 1995 and 2.30% at June 30,
1995.
Non-Interest Income
- -------------------
Non-interest income increased by $412,000 or 13.0% to $3.6 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 and increased by $704,000 or 10.7% to $7.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995. The
increase in non-interest income for both periods in 1996 compared to 1995 was
due to increases in non-yield loan fees, service charges on deposit accounts,
and fees from fiduciary activities. The increase in non-yield loan fees resulted
from increased originations and sales into the secondary market of fixed rate
mortgage loans.
Security Losses
- ---------------
Investment security losses were $401,000 for the three month period ended June
30, 1996 and $695,000 for the first half of 1996 compared to no loss for the
second quarter of 1995 and a loss of $614,000 for the first half of 1995. In
both 1996 and 1995, taxable investment securities were sold and the proceeds
reinvested into taxable investment securities with slightly longer maturities.
The average life of the taxable investment portfolio was approximately three
years at June 30, 1996 and 1995.
During the first half of 1996, longer-term taxable investment rates increased
which resulted in the net unrealized holding gain on available-for-sale
securities decreasing to $78,000 at June 30, 1996 compared to $5.9 million at
December 31, 1995. If this trend of higher interest rates were to continue, the
Corporation could realize additional investment security losses in the second
half of 1996.
Other Expense
- -------------
Total other expense decreased by $23,000 to $9.95 million for the three month
period ended June 30, 1996 compared to $9.97 million for
12
<PAGE> 13
the same period in 1995. This decrease was due to a $402,000 decrease to $3.6
million in the subcategory other expense which exceeded the increases in
salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, and furniture & equipment expense.
The decrease in the subcategory other expense was due to a $435,000 decrease in
deposit insurance premiums as a result of the reduction in the deposit insurance
rate for banks in 1996. The subcategory other expense also includes data
processing expense, fees and service charges, marketing, telephone, postage, and
expenses pertaining to other real estate owned. Salaries and employee benefits
expense increased by $312,000 or 6.3% to $5.3 million for the quarter ended June
30, 1996 compared to the same quarter in 1995. Full time equivalent employees
were 703 at June 30, 1996 compared to 671 at June 30, 1995.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, total other expense increased by
$878,000 or 4.4% to $20.9 million compared to the same period in 1995. This
increase was primarily due to a $698,000 or 6.9% increase to $10.7 million in
salaries and employee benefits expense for the first half of 1996 compared to
$10.0 million for the same period in 1995. In the subcategory other expense,
increases in data processing expense, fees & service charges, and miscellaneous
expense offset the decrease in deposit insurance premiums for the first six
months of 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.
Federal Income Taxes
- --------------------
Federal income tax expense increased by $430,000 to $3.3 million and by $940,000
to $6.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995. The ratio of federal income
tax expense to income before taxes was approximately 32.5% for both periods in
1996 and 1995.
Net Income
- ----------
Net income increased by $1.1 million or 19.1% to $6.8 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $5.7 million for the same period in 1995.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, net income increased by $2.2 million or
20.2% to $12.9 million compared to $10.7 million for the same period in 1995.
The annualized, net income to average asset ratio (ROA) was 1.87% and 1.78%,
respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared
to 1.67% and 1.59%, respectively, for the same periods in 1995. The annualized,
net income to average equity ratios (ROE) was 20.1% and 19.0%, respectively, for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to 18.7% and 18.1%,
respectively, for the same periods in 1995.

- --------------------------------------------
Total assets decreased by $5.7 million to $1,470 million at June 30, 1996
compared to $1,476 million at December 31, 1995. Cash and due from banks
decreased by $36.0 million to $56.7 million at June 30, 1996 compared to $92.7
million at December 31, 1995. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in
noninterest-bearing deposits of $25.6 million to $164.4 million at June 30, 1996
compared to $190.0 million at December 31, 1995. Noninterest-bearing deposit
accounts had temporarily increased at year-end 1995 which caused cash and due
from banks to also temporarily increase. The average balance for cash and due
from banks was $55 million for the first half of 1996 and the average 1996
balance for noninterest-bearing deposit accounts was $156 million.
Federal funds sold and investment securities increased by $20.1 million and
loans increased by $6.8 million during the first half of 1996 which partially
offset the $36.0 million decrease in cash and due from banks. Loan balances were
70.1% of total assets at June 30, 1996 compared to 69.4% at December 31, 1995
and 72.8% of total assets at June 30, 1995.
Total liabilities decreased by $8.1 million to $1,332 million at June 30, 1996
compared to $1,340 million at December 31, 1995. This decrease was primarily due
to the $25.6 million decrease in noninterest-bearing deposit accounts and a
$12.1 million decrease in short-term borrowings. These decreases were partially
offset by the $34.3 million increase in interest-bearing deposits which resulted
primarily from an increase in certificates of deposit.
Capital Resources
- -----------------
Stockholders' equity at June 30, 1996 was $138.9 million or 9.44% of total
assets compared to $136.4 million or 9.24% of total assets at December 31, 1995
and $128.1 million or 9.23% of total assets at June 30, 1995.
Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital
ratios and well capitalized capital ratios for banks, thrifts, and bank holding
companies. The unrealized net gain on available-for-sale securities is not
included in computing regulatory capital. The minimum leverage capital ratio
(defined as stockholders' equity less intangible assets divided by assets less
intangible assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal
to 5%. Park's leverage capital ratio was 9.39% at June 30, 1996 and 8.91% at
December 31, 1995. The minimum Tier I risk-based capital ratio (defined as
leverage capital divided by risk-adjusted assets) is 4% and the well capitalized
ratio is greater than or equal to 6%.

Park's Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 14.05% at June 30, 1996 and 13.35% at
December 31, 1995. The minimum total risk-based capital ratio (defined as
leverage capital plus supplemental capital divided by risk-adjusted assets) is
8% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 10%. Park's total
risk-based capital ratio was 15.31% at June 30, 1996 and 14.61% at December 31,
1995.
The financial institution subsidiaries of Park each met the applicable well
capitalized capital ratio guidelines at June 30, 1996. The following table
