================================================================================
                     During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and
                     1995, trading income included net unrealized holding gains
                     on trading securities of $28 million and $34 million,
                     respectively. These amounts exclude the net unrealized
                     trading results of the Parent's securities broker and
                     dealer subsidiaries.

                     During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Financial Accounting
                     Standards Board allowed financial statement preparers a 
                     one-time opportunity to reassess the classifications of
                     securities accounted for under Statement of Financial
                     Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for
                     Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." As a
                     result of this reassessment, BAC reclassified $2.1 billion
                     of held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale
                     securities. In connection with this reclassification, gross
                     unrealized gains of $28 million and gross unrealized losses
                     of $42 million were recorded in available-for-sale
                     securities and in stockholders' equity (on a net-of-tax
                     basis).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 4.              During the first quarter of 1996, BAC's Board of Directors 
STOCK REPURCHASE     authorized a new stock repurchase program. This new program
PROGRAM              enables the Parent to buy back up to $2.0 billion of its
                     common stock by the end of 1997. The new program, which
                     replaces the stock repurchase program announced in February
                     1995, also enables the Parent to buy back or redeem up to
                     $1.0 billion of its preferred stock by the end of 1997.

                     During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Parent
                     repurchased 12.3 million shares of its common stock under
                     the current and pre-existing stock repurchase programs at
                     an average per-share price of $73.25. These transactions
                     reduced stockholders' equity by $901 million.

                     On March 31, 1996, the Parent redeemed all 400,000
                     outstanding shares of its 11% Preferred Stock, Series J
                     (Preferred Stock, Series J) under terms of a stock
                     repurchase program that was replaced during the first
                     quarter of 1996. This transaction reduced stockholders'
                     equity by $218 million. The shares were represented by 
                     8 million depositary shares, each corresponding to a 
                     one-twentieth interest in a share of Preferred Stock,
                     Series J. The redemption price was $26.375 per depositary
                     share. The quarterly dividend of $0.6875 per depositary
                     share was paid on March 31, 1996 to holders of record on
                     March 15, 1996.

                     In addition, on April 16, 1996, the Parent redeemed all
                     7,250,000 outstanding shares of its 9 5/8% Cumulative
                     Preferred Stock, Series F, reducing stockholders' equity by
                     $181 million. The redemption price was equal to the stated
                     value of $25.00 per share, plus dividends of $0.30747 per
                     share accrued and unpaid at the redemption date.

                     The remaining buyback and redemption authorities for common
                     stock and preferred stock under the current program totaled
                     $1.3 billion and $0.8 billion, respectively, at September
                     30, 1996.


                                                                               7

                     The table on page 9 is a summary of the contractual amounts
                     of each significant class of credit-related financial
                     instruments outstanding. These amounts represent the
                     amounts at risk should the contract be fully drawn upon,
                     the client defaults, and the value of any existing
                     collateral become worthless.

            and $0.7 billion, respectively, of intercompany hedging-related
            contracts. Foreign exchange contracts in both the trading and asset
            and liability management portfolios include $2.3 billion of
            intercompany hedging-related contracts.
        /f/ Interest rate swaps and interest rate options in both the trading
            and asset and liability management portfolios include $14.2 billion
            and $0.7 billion, respectively, of intercompany hedging-related
            contracts. Foreign exchange contracts in both the trading and asset
            and liability management portfolios include $1.9 billion of
            intercompany hedging-related contracts.

        For most contracts, notional amounts are used solely to determine cash
        flows to be exchanged. However, certain foreign exchange contracts are
        designed for principal amounts to be exchanged on a common settlement
        date. The notional or contract amounts associated with foreign exchange
        and derivative financial instruments are not recorded as assets or
        liabilities on the balance sheet and do not represent the potential for
        gain or loss associated with such transactions. Credit risk represents
        BAC's potential loss on these transactions if all counterparts failed to
        perform according to the terms of the contract

================================================================================
        and the value of any existing collateral became worthless, based on 
        then-current currency exchange and interest rates at each respective
        date. Credit exposure represents the potential loss to which BAC is
        exposed, after taking into consideration legally enforceable master
        netting agreements. Historically, losses associated with counterparty
        nonperformance on derivative and foreign exchange instruments have been
        immaterial.

        The following tables summarize the average and period-end fair values of
        each significant class of foreign exchange and derivative contract
        outstanding in BAC's trading portfolio and the period-end fair values
        for each significant class of foreign exchange and derivative contract
        in BAC's asset and liability management portfolio. Fair value amounts
        were generally calculated using discounted cash flow models based on
        current market yields for similar instruments and the maturity of each
        instrument. These amounts include the effects of master netting
        agreements.

                 TRADING ACTIVITIES

                 Trading income represents the net amount earned from BAC's
                 trading activities, which include entering into transactions to
                 meet customer demand and taking positions for BAC's own account
                 in a diverse range of financial instruments and markets. The
                 profitability of these trading activities depends largely on
                 the volume and diversity of the transactions BAC executes, the
                 level of risk it is willing to assume, and the volatility of
                 price and rate movements. Trading income, as disclosed in BAC's
                 consolidated statement of operations, does not include the net
                 interest income derived from foreign exchange contracts and
                 derivatives associated with trading activities. However, the
                 trading-related net interest income amounts are presented in
                 the table below as they are considered in evaluating the
                 overall profitability of those activities.

                 /a/ Primarily includes the net interest revenue and expense
                     associated with these contracts.

                 To reflect the business purpose and use of the financial
                 contracts into which BAC enters, trading income and the related
                 net interest revenue or expense associated with such contracts
                 have been allocated into three broad functional categories:
                 interest rate trading, foreign exchange trading, and debt
                 instruments trading. Trading-related income from interest rate
                 instruments primarily includes results from transactions using
                 interest rate and currency swaps, interest rate futures, option
                 contracts, and forward rate agreements, as well as cash
                 instruments used in the management of this function. Foreign
                 exchange trading-related income primarily includes the results
                 from transactions using foreign exchange spot, forward,
                 futures, and option contracts. Trading-related income from
                 debt instruments primarily represents the results from trading
                 activities in various debt securities, including U.S.
                 government and government agency securities, foreign government
                 securities, mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds, and
                 corporate debt.

                 ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES

                 BAC uses derivative instruments, primarily interest rate
                 contracts, to manage interest rate risk related to specific
                 assets and liabilities, including fixed rate and adjustable
                 rate residential mortgages, long-term debt, and deposits.
                 Foreign exchange contracts are used to hedge net capital
                 exposure and foreign currency exposures. For a detailed
                 description of BAC's asset and liability management objectives
                 and strategies used to achieve those objectives, refer to page
                 75 of BAC's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

                 The expected maturities and weighted average interest rates
                 associated with BAC's asset and liability management interest
                 rate swap portfolio at September 30, 1996 were not
                 significantly different from those at year-end 1995.

                 SECURITIES LENDING

                 BAC completed the divestiture of its securities lending
                 portfolio during the third quarter of 1996 following its
                 decision in 1995 to exit the institutional trust and securities
                 services business. Securities lending transactions were
                 conducted primarily for institutional trust customers and, at
                 times, these customers were indemnified against various losses.
                 All securities lending transactions were collateralized by U.S.
                 government or federal agency securities, cash, or letters of
                 credit with total market value equal to or in excess of the
                 market value of the securities lent.

                 transactions and the associated collateral:

Note 8.          On September 30, 1996, Congress passed legislation that would
SPECIAL DEPOSIT  recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) to 
ASSESSMENT       1.25 percent of insured deposits as prescribed by the Federal
                 Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act. This legislation
                 imposed a one-time assessment on SAIF deposits held on March
                 31, 1995. BAC recognized a charge of $82 million in the third
                 quarter of 1996 as a result of this assessment.

                 In conjunction with the SAIF recapitalization, the Federal
                 Deposit Insurance Corporation has proposed lowering the rates
                 on assessments paid to the SAIF, and widening the spread of the
                 rates between institutions. Under the proposal, the effective
                 SAIF rates would be zero for well-capitalized and well-managed
                 institutions.

                 In addition, beginning January 1, 1997, Bank Insurance Fund
                 (BIF) member institutions will begin sharing in the cost of
                 funding Financing Corporation (FICO) interest payments. The
                 cost of funding these interest payments will be in the form of
                 an assessment on both BIF and SAIF insured deposits. The
                 assessment rate will be lower for BIF deposits than for SAIF
                 deposits. Actual rates will fluctuate over time depending on
                 the amount of deposits insured by the BIF and SAIF at the time
                 the assessment is made.

                                                                              13

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
HIGHLIGHTS
================================================================================

               The following is a summary of third-quarter 1996 financial
               information for BankAmerica Corporation and subsidiaries (BAC).

               .    BAC reported third-quarter 1996 earnings per share and net
                    income of $1.75 and $683 million, respectively, compared
                    with $1.72 and $704 million for the same period a year ago.
                    Net income includes a one-time assessment of $82 million
                    associated with the recapitalization of the Savings
                    Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). Excluding the effect of
                    this assessment, earnings per share and net income for the
                    third quarter of 1996 would have been $1.88 and $731
                    million, respectively, which would represent increases of 9
                    percent and 4 percent compared with the same period a year
                    ago.

               .    As part of its efforts to strategically redeploy capital, 
                    BAC entered into the following transactions in the third
                    quarter of 1996:

                    - Acquisition of approximately $1.8 billion of 
                      lease-related financial assets from subsidiaries of
                      Ford Motor Company;

                    - Securitization of $500 million of credit card receivables
                      from BAC's $9.5 billion managed credit card portfolio and
                      the sale of $1.4 billion of conforming fixed-rate first
                      mortgages from BAC's $37 billion mortgage portfolio;

                    - Signing of definitive agreements to divest 68 branches 
                      in Texas.

               .    Net interest income was down $4 million from the amount
                    reported in the third quarter of 1995. Excluding the effect
                    of the credit card securitization discussed above, net
                    interest income would have increased $6 million from the
                    third quarter of 1995. BAC's net interest margin for the
                    third quarter of 1996 was 4.17 percent, down 35 basis points
                    from the third quarter of 1995.

               .    Noninterest income increased $162 million, or 14 percent,
                    from the third quarter of 1995. Third-quarter 1996
                    noninterest income included gains on the liquidation of an
                    Australian subsidiary ($43 million) and a reduction of BAC's
                    equity interest in KorAm Bank, an Asian investment ($39
                    million).

               .    Excluding the effect of the one-time SAIF assessment of $82
                    million, noninterest expense would have been essentially
                    unchanged from the third quarter of 1995. BAC's expense-to-
                    revenue ratio, excluding the effect of the SAIF assessment,
                    would have been 54.47 percent in the third quarter of 1996,
                    a decrease of 67 basis points from 55.14 percent in the
                    previous quarter.

               .    Nonaccrual assets decreased $369 million, or 25 percent,
                    between June 30, 1996 and September 30, 1996. Net credit
                    losses were $226 million for the third quarter of 1996, a
                    decline of $20 million, or 8 percent, from the second
                    quarter of 1996, but up $75 million, or 50 percent, from the
                    comparable quarter a year ago. The provision for credit
                    losses was $235 million, down $15 million from the second
                    quarter of 1996, but up $125 million from the third quarter
                    of 1995.

               .    In connection with BAC's ongoing efforts to return excess
                    capital to its shareholders, BAC repurchased 2.5 million
                    shares of its common stock during the third quarter of 1996
                    at an average per-share price of $78.48, which reduced
                    stockholders' equity by $200 million.

                    For reporting purposes, BAC segregates its operations into
                    business or operating sectors. BAC's Vice Chairmen oversee
                    the operations of the businesses that comprise the sectors
                    and are responsible for each sector's financial performance.
                    The Vice Chairmen regularly review their respective
                    businesses to evaluate past performance and make decisions
                    regarding the future allocation of resources. All Vice
                    Chairmen are accountable to the Chief Executive Officer.

                    BAC determines its business sector results based on an
                    internal management reporting system that allocates
                    revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities to each
                    business. Furthermore, for internal business sector
                    monitoring, the unallocated allowance for credit losses and
                    related provision for credit losses are assigned to the
                    businesses. Equity is assigned to each business on a
                    risk-adjusted basis taking into account goodwill and
                    tax-effected identifiable intangibles. While BAC manages its
                    hedging activities centrally, the effects of hedging are
                    allocated to the businesses through a transfer pricing
                    process. As a result, the effects of hedging interest rate
                    risk are reflected in the appropriate business sectors. 


                    The information set forth in the tables on pages 16-17
                    reflects the condensed income statements and selected
                    average balance sheet line items and financial ratios by
                    business sector. The information presented does not
                    necessarily represent the business sectors' financial
                    condition and results of operations as if they were
                    independent entities. For a detailed discussion of the
                    composition of each business sector, refer to pages 6-15 of
                    BAC's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

                    Consumer Banking--Consumer Banking's net income for the
                    first nine months of 1996 was up $62 million, or 7 percent,
                    from the amount reported for the same period last year. This
                    increase largely reflected growth in the residential and
                    consumer installment loan portfolios, as well as in the
                    credit card portfolio. Included in this sector's net income
                    is a one-time assessment of $82 million associated with the
                    recapitalization of the SAIF. Excluding the effect of this
                    assessment, net income for the nine months ended September
                    30, 1996 would have been $963 million, up $110 million, or
                    13 percent, from the same period a year ago.

                    Net interest income was up from the first nine months of
                    1995 primarily due to increased loan volumes. Noninterest
                    income increased due to higher revenues from service fees
                    and charges associated with deposit accounts, an $82 million
                    gain on the sale of a Hong Kong consumer and commercial
                    subsidiary, and increased gains on loan sales. The increases
                    in net interest and noninterest income, coupled with BAC's
                    efforts to keep noninterest expense at targeted levels,
                    resulted in an expense-to-revenue ratio, excluding the
                    effect of the one-time SAIF assessment, of 55.17 percent for
                    the first nine months of 1996, a decrease from 58.00 percent
                    for the first nine months of 1995. The provision for credit
                    losses increased $286 million primarily as a result of
                    growth in the consumer loan portfolio. Average loan
                    outstandings grew $7.7 billion, or 10 percent, from the
                    first nine months of 1995, primarily representing growth in

                    U.S Corporate and International Banking -- U.S. Corporate
                    and International Banking's net income for the first nine
                    months of 1996 increased $243 million, or 40 percent,
                    compared with the same period a year ago. The increase
                    reflected higher net interest and noninterest income levels
                    and a reduction in the provision for credit losses,
                    partially offset by higher noninterest expense. The increase
                    in net interest income resulted from loan growth, especially
                    in the foreign portfolios. Noninterest income was up $259
                    million from the same period a year ago. This increase
                    resulted primarily from higher trading-related income and
                    venture capital distributions. In addition, the 1996 amount
                    included a $43 million gain on the liquidation of an
                    Australian subsidiary and a $39 million gain that resulted
                    from a reduction of BAC's equity interest in Koram Bank, an
                    Asian investment. The 1995 amount included a $50 million
                    gain on the sale of an asset received in lieu of debt
                    repayment. The reduction in the provision for credit losses
                    was primarily a result of improved credit quality.
                    Noninterest expense increased primarily due to higher group
                    variable compensation resulting from higher incentive
                    accruals associated with trading activities. This sector's
                    expense-to-revenue ratio decreased 455 basis points from the
                    first nine months of 1995. 

                    Middle Market Banking -- Middle Market Banking's net income
                    for the first nine months of 1996 increased $21 million, or
                    9 percent, from the same period of 1995. This increase was
                    primarily attributable to a reduction in the provision for
                    credit losses. Net interest income decreased $8 million from
                    the first nine months of 1995 as continued price competition
                    resulted in a shift from higher priced loans, such as those
                    tied to the reference rate, to lower priced loans, such as
                    those that are LIBOR-based. The provision for credit losses
                    decreased due to improved credit quality in the commercial
                    loan portfolio. Average loan outstandings increased $1.6
                    billion, or 10 percent, primarily in commercial and
                    industrial loans.

                    Commercial Real Estate -- Commercial Real Estate's net
                    income for the first nine months of 1996 decreased $101
                    million, or 35 percent, from the first nine months of 1995,
                    largely due to the effect of lower credit recoveries on the
                    provision for credit losses, primarily related to
                    construction loans. The provision for credit losses changed
                    from ($205) million in the first nine months of 1995 to
                    ($36) million in the first nine months of 1996. 

                    Private Banking and Investment Services -- Private Banking
                    and Investment Services' net income increased $13 million,
                    or 28 percent, for the first nine months of 1996 compared to
                    the same period a year ago. The increase primarily resulted
                    from higher noninterest income partially offset by increased
                    noninterest expense. Noninterest income increased due to
                    growth in mutual fund and annuity revenues as well as higher
                    trust-related fees. Noninterest expense increased primarily
                    due to higher performance-based pay.

                    Other -- "Other" amounts are primarily associated with
                    certain corporate expenses and various other support
                    services. "Other" also includes the results from corporate
                    liquidity management activities, along with any residual
                    differences between actual centrally managed external
                    hedging results and the allocation of interest rate risk
                    hedging to the appropriate businesses. The income and
                    expenses related to the Institutional Trust and Securities
                    Services (ITSS) business are included in this sector.
                    However, the corporation had substantially divested ITSS by
                    the end of the first quarter of 1996. 

                    This sector had a net loss of $145 million in the first nine
                    months of 1996, compared with a net loss of $73 million in
                    the same period a year ago. This increased net loss was
                    primarily attributable to lower results from corporate
                    liquidity management activities. Partially offsetting this
                    decrease was the recognition of a $50 million pre-tax gain
                    during 1996 associated with the divestiture of BAC's ITSS
                    business.

OPERATING AND           BAC's results for the third quarter and the first nine
FINANCIAL LEVERAGE      months of 1996 demonstrated BAC's ability to manage its
                        operating and financial leverage. 

                        By managing expenses and repurchasing and redeeming
                        stock, as discussed below, excluding the effect of the
                        SAIF assessment, BAC's performance would have resulted
                        in increases in net income for the third quarter and
                        first nine months of 1996 of 4 percent and 11 percent,
                        respectively, as well as increases in fully diluted
                        earnings per share of 9 percent and 17 percent,
                        respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.

                        Operating Leverage is achieved when the rate of revenue
                        growth exceeds that of expenses. As shown in the table
                        below, excluding the effect of the SAIF assessment,
                        revenue for the third quarter and first nine months of
                        1996 would have increased 5 percent and 7 percent,
                        respectively, from the same periods in 1995, while
                        noninterest expense would have remained essentially
                        unchanged.

                        Financial Leverage is achieved when the rates of growth
                        in common shares outstanding and preferred dividends are
                        below that of net income. Excluding the effect of the
                        SAIF assessment, growth in net income for the third
                        quarter and first nine months of 1996 would have been 4
                        percent and 11 percent, respectively, compared to the
                        same periods in 1995. As a result of BAC's stock
                        repurchase program, the average number of fully diluted
                        shares decreased 3 percent for both the third quarter
                        and the first nine months of 1996 from the comparable
                        periods in 1995. Additionally, preferred dividends for
                        the third quarter and the first nine months of 1996
                        decreased 23 percent and 19 percent, respectively, from
                        the same periods in 1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
================================================================================

NET INTEREST        Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the third quarter
INCOME              and first nine months of 1996 was $2,157 million and $6,468
                    million, respectively, a decrease of $6 million and an
                    increase of $123 million, compared to the same periods a
                    year ago. Excluding the effect of a credit card
                    securitization in the third quarter of 1996,
                    taxable-equivalent net interest income would have increased
                    $4 million and $133 million from the third quarter and first
                    nine months of 1995, respectively. The increase for the
                    first nine months of 1996, compared to the same period a
                    year ago, resulted primarily from growth in earning assets,
                    partially offset by a decrease in the net interest margin.

                    Average earning assets totaled $206.6 billion and $202.3
                    billion for the third quarter and first nine months of 1996,
                    respectively, up $15.7 billion and $15.6 billion from the
                    same periods in 1995. These increases primarily reflected
                    broad-based growth in the loan portfolio as average loans
                    increased $10.9 billion and $12.2 billion from the third
                    quarter and first nine months of 1995, respectively. In
                    addition, other average earning assets rose $4.8 billion and
                    $3.4 billion from the third quarter and first nine months of
                    1995, respectively. 

                    BAC's net interest margin for the third quarter and first
                    nine months of 1996 was 4.17 percent and 4.26 percent,
                    respectively, down 35 and 27 basis points from the
                    comparable periods a year ago. The yield on average earning
                    assets declined, with no corresponding decline in the cost
                    of funds. The yield on average earning assets decreased 32
                    basis points and 23 basis points from the third quarter and
                    first nine months of 1995, respectively, due to lower
                    prevailing market rates. No corresponding decrease in the
                    cost of funds occurred as the rates on domestic interest-
                    bearing deposits, the largest component of interest-bearing
                    liabilities, increased. In addition, BAC has experienced a
                    shift in the mix of liabilities toward wholesale funding
                    sources, including foreign interest-bearing deposits and
                    domestic purchased funds, which are more costly than
                    traditional core deposits. Growth in lower-yielding average
                    earning assets other than loans also contributed to the
                    decline in the margin.  

                    BAC's net interest income and margin include the results of
                    hedging with certain on- and off-balance sheet financial
                    instruments.  Hedging with derivative financial instruments
                    reduced net interest income by approximately $5 million in
                    the third quarter and increased it by approximately $25
                    million in the first nine months of 1996.  During the third
                    quarter and first nine months of 1995, hedging increased net
                    interest income by approximately $10 million and $50
                    million, respectively. The effect of the hedging amounts on
                    the net interest margin for both the third quarter and first
                    nine months of 1996 as well as the comparable periods of
                    1995 was less than 5 basis points.

NONINTEREST         Noninterest income for the third quarter and first nine
INCOME              months of 1996 was $1,319 million and $3,913 million,
                    respectively, up $162 million and $525 million from the
                    comparable periods in 1995. The increases were reflected in
                    higher fees and commissions, trading income, and other
                    noninterest income. 

                    Total fees and commissions for the third quarter and first
                    nine months of 1996 increased $44 million and $88 million,
                    respectively, from the corresponding periods in 1995,
                    reflecting BAC's focus on fee-generating activities.
                    Revenues from retail deposit account fees rose $23 million
                    and $83 million in the third quarter and first nine months
                    of 1996,respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995,
                    primarily due to service fees and charges associated with
                    deposit accounts. Total credit card fees increased $10
                    million and $30 million from the third quarter and first
                    nine months of 1995, respectively, largely due to higher
                    interchange fees from the introduction of the
                    VERSATEL(R)Check Card this year. Other fees and commissions
                    increased by $37 million and $48 million from the third
                    quarter and first nine months of 1995, respectively,
                    primarily due to higher loan fees and charges and financial
                    services fees. Loan fees and charges, net of amortization
                    expense and valuation adjustments on mortgage servicing
                    rights, increased $18 million and $16 million from the third
                    quarter and first nine months of 1995, respectively,
                    reflecting BAC's expanded mortgage banking activities.
                    Financial services fees, which include syndication and
                    brokerage fees, increased $12 million and $9 million from
                    the third quarter and first nine months of 1995. The
                    increases in the above categories were partially offset by a
                    decline in trust fees of $19 million and $56 million for the
                    third quarter and first nine months of 1996, respectively.
                    Trust fees declined due to the divestiture of ITSS, and
                    lower fee revenue from personal trust activities.

                    Trading income for the third quarter and first nine months
                    of 1996 increased $21 million and $84 million, respectively,
                    from the same periods a year ago. The improvement in the
                    current year is attributable to BAC's 1995 investments in
                    Latin America and other emerging market debt securities as
                    well as European securities. For more information on the
                    functional components of trading income, refer to Note 7 of
                    the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 8-
                    13.

                    Other noninterest income increased $97 million and $353
                    million in the third quarter and first nine months of 1996,
                    respectively, compared to the same periods a year ago.
                    Higher income related to venture capital activities, net
                    gains on sales of subsidiaries and operations, and net gains
                    on sales of assets, contributed to the increase and were
                    partially offset by declines in other income.

                    Noninterest income related to venture capital activities
                    increased $43 million and $75 million in the third quarter
                    and first nine months of 1996, respectively, from the
                    comparable periods in 1995. These increases were primarily
                    due to realized capital gains and partnership distributions.

                    The net gain on sales of subsidiaries and operations
                    increased $41 million and $192 million in the third quarter
                    and first nine months of 1996, respectively, compared to the
                    same periods a year ago. Third quarter and year-to-date 1996
                    amounts included a $39 million gain that resulted from a
                    reduction of BAC's equity interest in KorAm Bank, an Asian
                    investment, while year-to-date 1996 included a gain of $82
                    million from the sale of a Hong Kong consumer and commercial
                    finance subsidiary and a net gain of $50 million associated
                    with the divestiture of BAC's ITSS business.

                Net gain on sales of assets increased $37 million and $92
                million in the third quarter and first nine months of 1996,
                respectively, compared to the same periods a year ago. These
                increases included higher gains on loan sales and gains on sales
                of leased personal property, primarily airplanes.

                Other income decrease $14 million and $20 million in the third
                quarter and first nine months of 1996, respectively, compared to
                the same periods a year ago. Third quarter and year-to-date 1996
                amounts included a $43 million gain on the liquidation
                Australian subsidiary, while year-to-date 1995 included higher
                other earnings of $75 million, primarily due to a $50 million
                gain from the sale of an asset received in lieu of debt
                repayment. In addition, equity income decreased $18 million from
                the first nine months of 1995. These decreases were partially
                offset by $39 million in higher dividends earned on investments
                in the first nine months of 1996.

NONINTEREST      Noninterst expense for the third quarter and first nine months 
EXPENSE          of 1996 was $2,081 million and $6,091 million, respectively, up
                 $88 million and $56 million from the comparable periods in
                 1995. Noninterest expense in the third quarter and first nine
                 months of 1998 included a one-time assessment associated with
                 the recapitalization of the SAIF of $82 million, while the
                 third quarter and first nine months of 1995 included a $65
                 million refund received from the Federal Deposit Insurance
                 Corporation (FDIC), both of which are discussed in more detail
                 below.

                 Personnel expense (salaries and employee benefits) for the
                 third quarter of 1996 was $1,013 million, down $21 million from
                 the third quarter of 1995. Personnel expense for the first nine
                 months of 1996 was $3,063 million, essentially unchanged from
                 the same period in 1995. Salary expense decreased by $17
                 million and $33 million for the third quarter and first nine
                 months of 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods a
                 year ago, primarily due to reduced staff levels. The decline in
                 year-to-date 1996 salaries was more than offset by an increase
                 of $35 million in employee benefits, primarily attributable to
                 retirement plan enhancements that became effective January 1,
                 1996. BAC's staff level on a full-time-equivalent (FTE) basis
                 was approximately 78,200 at September 30, 1996, down from
                 approximately 80,200 at September 30, 1995. FTE is a
                 measurement equal to one full-time employee working a standard
                 day. BAC had approximately 92,700 employees at September 30,
                 1996, down from approximately 95,500 at the same date a year
                 earlier. These amounts include both full-time and part-time
                 employees.

                 Regulatory fees and related expenses were $95 million and $121
                 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 1996,
                 respectively, up $65 million and down $32 million from the same
                 periods a year ago. Regulatory fees in the third quarter and
                 first nine months of 1996 included a one-time assessment of $82
                 million associated with the recapitalization of the SAIF.
                 Regulatory fees in the third quarter and first nine months of
                 1995 include a $85 million refund received from the FDIC.
                 Approximately $50 million of this refund related to a reduction
                 of third quarter 1995 insurance rates, while the remaining
                 portion was applicable to payments made in the second quarter
                 of 1995 for the month of June. This refund resulted from a
                 reduction in the FDIC assessment rate announced in 1995. Under
                 the new rate structure, the well-capitalized and highest rated
                 banks only pay a membership fee for BIF Insurance, effective
                 January 1996.

Balance Sheet Review
================================================================================

                Interest-earning assets totaled $204 billion at September 30,
                1996, up $11 billion, or 6 percent, from year-end 1995. Growth
                in interest-earning assets, primarily loans, trading account
                assets, and securities purchased under resale agreements, was
                funded by increases in liabilities, such as short-term
                borrowings, foreign interest-bearing deposits, and securities
                sold under repurchase agreements.

                Total deposits at September 30, 1996 increased $4.4 billion from
                December 31, 1995. The growth was primarily attributable to a
                $4.0 billion increase in foreign deposits that resulted from
                BAC's continued participation in selected global markets.

                In June 1996, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
                issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125,
                "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
                Extinguishments of Liabilities" (SFAS No. 125), which is
                effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1996.
                However, the FASB has since issued an Exposure Draft that, if
                implemented, would delay the adoption of SFAS No. 125 as it
                applies to securities lending, repurchase agreements, dollar
                rolls, and other similar secured financing transactions until
                after December 31, 1997. BAC does not expect that, at adoption,
                SFAS No. 125 will have a material effect on its financial
                position or results of operations.

CREDIT CARD      During the third quarter of 1996, $0.5 billion of credit card 
SECURITIZATION   receivables was securitized and sold. The securitization 
                 affects, among other things, the manner and time period in
                 which revenue is reported in the statement of operations.  The
                 amounts that would otherwise be included in net interest
                 revenue are instead included in noninterest income as fees and
                 commissions, net of any credit losses on the securitized
                 portion of the credit card portfolio.

                  Domestic Consumer Loans -- During the nine months ended
                  September 30, 1996, domestic consumer loans rose by $3.6
                  billion, or 5 percent, particularly in the southwest, midwest,
                  and southeast regions of the country, reflecting increased
                  diversification in BAC's lending activities. The rise in loans
                  included an increase of $2.2 billion in other installment
                  loans, primarily due to growth in manufactured housing loans
                  in the South, reflecting strong customer demand and BAC's
                  continued expansion in this region. In addition, residential
                  first mortgages increased $0.9 billion and residential junior
                  mortgages increased by $0.7 billion. Continuation of this
                  level of loan growth will depend upon both future economic
                  conditions and customer demand.

               Delinquent domestic consumer loans that are 60 days or more
               past due totaled $902 million at September 30, 1996, a
               decrease of $120 million from the December 31, 1995 level. The
               decrease is primarily due to a reduced level of delinquencies
               in residential first mortgages in Southern California.

                Domestic Commercial Loans -- Domestic commercial loans increased
                $0.6 billion, or 1 percent, during the nine months ended
                September 30, 1996. Loans secured by real estate increased by
                $1.1 billion and lease financing increased by $0.8 billion,
                primarily due to the acquisition of a transportation and
                industrial lease financing portfolio during the third quarter of
                1996. These increases were partially offset by decreases in most
                other commercial loan categories.

                 Foreign Loans -- Foreign loans increased $2.2 billion, or 9
                 percent, between year-end 1995 and September 30, 1996.
                 Commercial and industrial loans grew by $1.3 billion. In
                 addition, other loans increased by $0.9 billion, primarily due
                 to the acquisition of a transportation and industrial lease 
                 financing portfolio during the third quarter of 1996.

EMERGING MARKET  In connection with its effort to maintain a diversified
EXPOSURE         portfolio, BAC limits its exposure to any one country.
                 In particular, BAC monitors its exposure to economies that are
                 considered to be emerging markets. As indicated in the table
                 below, at September 30, 1996, BAC's emerging market exposure
                 totaled $10.5 billion, or 4 percent of total assets, compared
                 to $8.8 billion, or 4 percent, at year-end 1995. This exposure
                 represents loans, restructured debt, which is included in the
                 securities portfolios, and other monetary assets. BAC's
                 investments in emerging markets are predominantly concentrated
                 in Latin America and Asia. As developing countries in these
                 areas improve their economic performance, business environment,
                 infrastructure, and regional trade capabilities, BAC expects to
                 continue to expand its investment in these regions.

Allowance For    The allowance for credit losses at September 30, 1996 was
Credit Losses    $3,511 million, or 2.17 percent of loans outstanding, compared
                 with $3,554 million, or 2.29 percent, at December 31, 1995. The
                 ratio of the allowance for credit losses to total nonaccrual
                 assets was 314 percent at September 30, 1996, up from 188
                 percent at December 31, 1995.

                 Management develops the allowance for credit losses using a
                 "building block approach" for various portfolio segments.
                 Significant loans, particularly those considered to be
                 impaired, are individually analyzed, while other loans are
                 analyzed by portfolio segment. In establishing the allowance
                 for the portfolio segments, credit officers include results
                 obtained from statistical models using historical loan
                 performance data. While management has allocated the allowance
                 to various portfolio segments, it is general in nature and is
                 available for the loan portfolio in its entirety.

                 Net credit losses for the third quarter and first nine months
                 of 1996 were $226 million and $711 million, up $75 million and
                 $353 million, respectively, from the same periods a year ago.
                 These increases were largely in the domestic commercial and
                 consumer portfolios.

                 Domestic commercial net credit losses for the third quarter and
                 first nine months of 1996 increased $54 million and $164
                 million, respectively, from the comparable periods in 1995,
                 primarily in the construction and development, commercial and
                 industrial, and financial institutions portfolios. The increase
                 in net charge-offs of construction and development loans was
                 due to lower credit recoveries in 1996. Higher charge-offs on
                 loans to large corporate borrowers accounted for the rise in
                 the commercial and industrial sector. Increased charge-offs on
                 loans to financial institutions resulted primarily from a
                 decline in the collateral value of a loan to a particular
                 borrower.

                 Domestic consumer net credit losses for the third quarter and
                 first nine months of 1996 increased $36 million and $140
                 million, respectively, from the amounts reported in the same
                 periods a year ago. This increase was primarily in the consumer
                 installment and credit card categories. Higher charge-offs of
                 consumer installment loans were driven by growth in the
                 manufactured housing portfolio. Loan growth coupled with higher
                 levels of personal bankruptcy filings contributed to increased
                 charge-offs in the credit card portfolio.

                 Foreign net credit losses in the third quarter of 1996
                 decreased $15 million from the comparable period in 1995. Net
                 credit recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
                 were lower by $49 million compared to the same period a year
                 ago as a result of significant recoveries on loans to borrowers
                 in Brazil and Equador in 1995.

Nonperforming           Total nonaccrual assets decreased $772 million, or 41
Assets                  percent, between year-end 1995 and September 30, 1996.
                        This decrease reflected improvements in most segments of
                        the loan portfolio, particularly in construction and
                        development loans and in commercial and industrial
                        loans. These improvements resulted primarily from full
                        or partial payments on nonaccrual loans. Other
                        significant factors that contributed to the decrease
                        were charge-offs and the restoration of nonaccrual loans
                        to accrual status in most loan categories, including a
                        large construction and development real estate loan. The
                        decrease in nonaccruals also reflects low levels of
                        loans being placed on nonaccrual status.

                        The improvement in BAC's credit quality during the first
                        nine months of 1996 was also reflected in BAC's
                        nonperforming asset ratios. At September 30, 1996, the
                        ratio of nonaccrual loans to total loans was 0.69
                        percent, down from 1.22 percent at December 31, 1995. In
                        addition, the ratio of nonperforming assets (comprised
                        of nonaccrual assets and other real estate owned) to
                        total assets declined 41 basis points from year-end 1995
                        to 0.62 percent at September 30, 1996.

                        For further information concerning nonaccrual assets,

FOREIGN EXCHANGE AND DERIVATIVES CONTRACTS
================================================================================

                     BAC uses foreign exchange and derivatives contracts in both
                     its trading and its asset and liability management
                     activities. Foreign exchange and derivatives contracts
                     include swaps, futures, forwards, and option contracts, all
                     of which derive their value from underlying interest rates,
                     foreign exchange rates, commodity values, or equity
                     instruments. Certain transactions involve standardized
                     contracts executed on organized exchanges, while others are
                     negotiated over the counter, with the terms tailored to
                     meet the needs of BAC and its customers.

                     BAC executes transactions to aid its customers in managing
                     exposures to interest rates, foreign exchange rates, prices
                     of securities, and financial or commodity indices.
                     Counterparties to BAC's foreign exchange and derivative
                     transactions generally include U.S. and foreign banks,
                     nonbank financial institutions, corporations, domestic and
                     foreign governments, and asset managers.

                     BAC generates trading revenue by executing transactions to
                     support customers' risk management needs, by efficiently
                     managing the positions that result from these transactions,
                     and by making markets in a wide variety of products.

                     As an end user, BAC employs foreign exchange contracts to
                     hedge foreign exchange risk and derivatives contracts to
                     hedge interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk in
                     connection with its own asset and liability management
                     activities. More specifically, BAC primarily uses interest
                     rate derivatives instruments to manage the interest rate
                     risk associated with its assets and liabilities, including
                     residential loans, long-term debt, and deposits.

                     Similar to on-balance-sheet financial instruments such as
                     loans and investment securities, off-balance-sheet
                     financial instruments subject BAC to various types of
                     risks. These risks include credit risk (the risk that a
                     loss may occur from the failure of a customer to perform
                     according to the terms of the contract), market risk (the
                     sensitivity of future earnings to price or rate changes),
                     liquidity risk (the risk of BAC being unable to meet its
                     funding requirements or execute a transaction at a
                     reasonable price), and operational risk (the risk that
                     inadequate internal controls, procedures, human error,
                     system failure, or fraud may result in unexpected losses).
                     For a detailed discussion of these risks and how they are
                     managed, refer to pages 27-29, and 38-42 of BAC's 1995
                     Annual Report to Shareholders.

                     derivatives contracts, including their respective notional,

INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
================================================================================

                     BAC's governing objective in interest rate risk management
                     is to minimize the potential for significant loss as a
                     result of changes in interest rates. Risk is measured in
                     terms of potential impact on both its economic value and
                     reported earnings. Economic value calculations measure
                     changes in the present value of future net cash flows from
                     all assets and liabilities until maturity. Those changes
                     can result from interest rate movements or from altered
                     expectations of future market conditions. BAC measures
                     earnings variability by estimating the potential effect of
                     changes in interest rates on projected net income over a
                     three-year period.

                     BAC measures and manages interest rate risk by type of
                     risk. To minimize exposures to declines in economic value
                     due to gap mismatches, BAC's policy is that assets and
                     liabilities must have approximately equal total duration.
                     This policy protects against losses of economic value in
                     the event of major upward and downward interest rate
                     movements. BAC uses an internally developed model to
                     translate the mismatch in each repricing period (i.e., the
                     "gap") into a one-year mismatch with the same economic
                     risk.

</TABLE> 

                     Graph indicates the composite net asset (+) or net
                     liability (-) repricing position measured across the entire
                     maturity mismatch profile and expressed as a one-year
                     mismatch position bearing the same aggregate level of risk.

                     For example, a six-month gap of $200 million is treated as
                     having approximately the same economic risk as a one-year
                     gap of $100 million. As shown in the graph above, BAC's net
                     one-year position has been essentially balanced throughout
                     the last five years.

                     Gap mismatches result from timing differences in the
                     repricing of assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet
                     financial instruments. Expected interest rate sensitivity
                     of individual categories of U.S. dollar-denominated assets
                     and liabilities as of September 30, 1996 is shown in the
                     table on page 42.

        At September 30, 1996, BAC had a "core" imbalance before risk management
        positions as liabilities and equity exceeded assets by approximately $13
        billion. BAC's risk management activities eliminated this imbalance
        while containing the size of net gap mismatches in individual repricing
        periods. Investment securities and "received fixed" swaps essentially
        neutralized core gaps beyond five years.

                  securities purchased under resale agreements, trading account
                  assets, and available-for-sale securities. Liquid assets
                  totaled $51.8 billion at September 30, 1996, up $4.4 billion,
                  or 9 percent, from year-end 1995. The growth in liquid assets
                  was primarily attributable to increases in trading account
                  assets and securities purchased under resale agreements.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAPITAL           At September 30, 1996, total stockholders' equity totaled
MANAGEMENT        $20.5 billion, an increase of $0.3 billion from year-end 1995
                  primarily due to an increase of $0.7 billion in common equity
                  partially offset by a $0.4 billion decline in preferred stock.

                  Common equity rose $0.7 billion during the first nine months
                  of 1996 primarily due to earnings net of common and preferred
                  stock dividends of $1.4 billion and shares issued in
                  connection with restricted stock bonus plans and other
                  employee benefit related plans of $0.2 billion. Partially
                  offsetting these increases was a reduction of $0.9 billion due
                  to repurchases of common stock. During the first nine months
                  of 1996, BAC repurchased 12.3 million shares of its common
                  stock at an average price per share of $73.25, reflecting the
                  corporation's ongoing efforts to return excess capital to its
                  shareholders. This included the repurchase of 2.5 million
                  shares during the third of 1996 at an average price per share
                  of $78.48, which reduced third-quarter common equity by $0.2
                  billion. The shares were repurchased on the open market over
                  31 trading days and represented approximately seven percent of
                  the total volume of BAC common stock traded on those days. For
                  additional information regarding the stock repurchase program,
                  refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
                  Statements on page 7.

                  The decline in BAC's preferred stock of $0.4 billion resulted
                  from the redemptions of all 400,000 outstanding shares of its
                  11% Preferred Stock, Series J, on March 31, 1996 and all
                  7,250,000 outstanding shares of its 9 5/8% Cumulative
                  Preferred Stock, Series F, on April 16, 1996. For additional
                  information regarding preferred stock, refer to Note 4 of the
                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on Page 7.

                  BAC's risk-based capital ratios continued to exceed regulatory
                  guidelines for "well-capitalized" status. BAC's total risk-
                  based capital ratio and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio
                  decreased 13 basis points and 5 basis points, respectively,
                  between December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1996. This
                  decrease primarily resulted from an increase in total risk-
                  weighted assets, in particular, loans, trading account
                  assets, and standby letters of credit. During the redemption
                  and repurchase period associated with the common and preferred
                  stock buyback programs, BAC's targeted Tier 1 risk-based
                  capital ratio is approximately 7.3 percent. However, the
                  achievement of this objective is necessarily uncertain and
                  there is a risk that actual results may differ materially due
                  to a variety of factors. BAC's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 6.90
                  percent at September 30, 1996, compared with 6.92 percent at
                  December 31, 1995.

                                                                              43

/b/  Effective in the first quarter of 1996, the Federal Reserve Board adopted
     the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's treatment of deducting
     investments in unconsolidated banking and finance subsidiaries from total
     capital. Prior to March 31, 1996, this amount was included in "other
     deductions," with half of the investment deducted from Tier 1 and the other
     half deducted from Tier 2 capital.

                                   ARTICLE I

                                    GENERAL

     1.1  Background of Plan.  BankAmerica Corporation hereby establishes the
BankAmerica Corporation 1992 Management Stock Plan (the "Plan").  The Plan
provides for the grant of stock options on BankAmerica Corporation Common Stock,
and for the grant of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock
appreciation rights, and other stock-based awards.  The Plan is the successor to
the BankAmerica Corporation 1987 Management Stock Plan.

     1.2  Purpose of the Plan.  The purpose of the Plan is to provide contingent
financial incentive to key executive officers of BankAmerica Corporation and its
present and future Subsidiaries (as defined below) and other employees whose
participation in the Plan is deemed to be in the best interests of BankAmerica
Corporation.  The Plan will offer competitive levels of incentive compensation
related to long-term corporate financial performance to those key officers and
other employees of the Company who, by virtue of their position and efforts,
contribute to or substantially influence the financial success of BankAmerica
Corporation over multiple-year periods.  The Plan is also intended as a means of
increasing officer shareholdings, thereby strengthening the commonality of
interest between BankAmerica shareholders and key officers and other employees
in the Company's management, and as an aid in attracting, retaining and
motivating key officers and other employees of outstanding abilities and
specialized skills.

     1.3  Definitions.  As used in the Plan and the related Award Agreements,
the following terms, when written with initial capital letters, will have the
meanings stated below:

          (a) Award means any grant or award of an Option, Restricted Stock,
     Restricted Stock Unit, SAR or Other Stock-Based Award under the Plan.

          (b) Award Agreement means any written agreement between BankAmerica
     and an employee of the Company pursuant to which a grant or award is made
     under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the provisions of each Award
     Agreement subject to the provisions hereof.

          (c) BankAmerica means BankAmerica Corporation, a Delaware corporation.

          (d) Board means Board of Directors of BankAmerica.

          (e) Change in Control means that one of the following events has
     occurred:

              (i)   The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within
          the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange
          Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) (a "Person") of
          beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated
          under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (i) the then
          outstanding shares of common stock of BankAmerica (the "Outstanding
          BankAmerica Common Stock") or (ii) the combined voting power of the
          then outstanding voting securities of BankAmerica entitled to vote
          generally in the election of directors (the "Outstanding BankAmerica
          Voting Securities"); provided, however, that for purposes of this
          subsection (i), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a
          Change of Control: (A) any acquisition directly from BankAmerica, (B)
          any acquisition by BankAmerica, (C) any acquisition by any employee
          benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company
          or (D) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction
          which complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (iii)
          below.

              (ii)  Individuals who, as of August 7, 1995, constitute the Board
          (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a
          majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming
          a director subsequent to August 7, 1995 whose election, or nomination
          for election by BankAmerica's shareholders, was approved by a vote of
          at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent
          Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of
          the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such
          individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an
          actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or
          removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of
          proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board.

              (iii) Consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or
          sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of
          BankAmerica or any of its subsidiaries (a "Business Combination"), in
          each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A) all or
          substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the
          beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding BankAmerica Common
          Stock and Outstanding BankAmerica Voting Securities immediately prior
          to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly,
          more than 70% (80% in the case of any Award

          made prior to February 5, 1996) of, respectively, the then outstanding
          shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then
          outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the
          election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation
          resulting from such Business Combination (including, without
          limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns
          BankAmerica or all or substantially all of BankAmerica's assets either
          directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the
          same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such
          Business Combination of the Outstanding BankAmerica Common Stock and
          Outstanding BankAmerica Voting Securities, as the case may be,
          (provided, however, that, for the purposes of this clause (A), any
          shares of common stock or voting securities of such resulting
          corporation received by such beneficial owners in such Business
          Combination other than as the result of such beneficial owners'
          ownership of Outstanding BankAmerica Common Stock or Outstanding
          BankAmerica Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business
          Combination shall not be considered to be owned by such beneficial
          owners for the purposes of calculating their percentage of ownership
          of the outstanding common stock and voting power of the resulting
          corporation), (B) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from
          such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related
          trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business
          Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more
          of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of the
          corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined
          voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such
          corporation unless such Person owned 20% or more of the Outstanding
          BankAmerica Common Stock or Outstanding BankAmerica Voting Securities
          immediately prior to the Business Combination and (C) at least a
          majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation
          resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent
          Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or of the
          action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination.

          (i) The Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on any date means
     the average of the high and low sales prices of a share of Common Stock as
     reflected in the report of consolidated trading of New York Stock Exchange
     listed securities for that day (or, if no shares were publicly traded on
     that day, the immediately preceding day that shares were so traded)
     published in The Wall Street Journal or in any other publication selected
     by the Committee; provided, however, that if shares of Common Stock shall
     not have been publicly traded for more than ten days immediately preceding
     such date, then the fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be
     determined by the Committee in such manner as it may deem appropriate.

          (j) Major Combination means a merger, acquisition or other business
     combination in which the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of
     the close of business on the effective date of the combination is at least

     the effective date of the combination.

     shall be one of two kinds: (i) Incentive Stock Options ("ISOs") and (ii)

     directly or indirectly, twenty percent or more of the voting stock.

          (u) Window Period means the time period described in Section 3.2

     1.4  Administration of Plan.  (a) The Plan shall be administered by the
Committee.  The Committee shall consist of at least three members of the Board,

grant or award under the Plan or under any other plan of the Company or its
affiliates under which the participants are entitled to acquire Common Stock,

its affiliates.  Members of the Committee shall serve at the pleasure of the
Board.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all grants and awards under the Plan to
the Chief Executive Officer of BAC shall be approved or ratified by the Board.

<PAGE>
 
             (iv)   the restrictions to be imposed on each share of Restricted

          which shall be Non-Qualified Stock Options;

          each Option, which shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market

           (viii)   the terms and conditions of each Award Agreement between
          BankAmerica and an employee to whom the Committee has made an Award,

          Plan; and

             (ix) subject to the provisions of Section 6.13, the Committee shall
          have the power, authority, and sole discretion to construe, interpret
          and administer the Plan. The Committee's decisions construing,
          interpreting and administering the Plan shall be conclusive and
          binding on all parties.

     1.5  Eligibility to Receive Grants and Awards.  Employees of BankAmerica or
of any of its Subsidiaries who shall, in the judgment of the Committee be
qualified by position, training or ability to contribute substantially to the
progress of BankAmerica, shall be eligible to receive grants and awards under
the Plan.

     1.6  Types of Grants and Awards Under Plan.  Grants and awards under the
Plan may be in the form of any one or more of the following:  (i) Incentive
Stock Options, (ii) Non-Qualified Stock Options, (iii) Stock Appreciation
Rights, (iv) Restricted Stock Units, (v) Restricted Stock or (vi) Other Stock-
Based Awards.

     1.7  Limitation on Available Shares.  For each calendar year from and
including 1995 a number of shares of Common Stock in an amount of up to one and
one-half percent (1.5%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as
reported in the annual report to shareholders of BankAmerica for the preceding
year shall become available for delivery with respect to Awards under the Plan,
provided, however, that as of the effective date of any Major Combination (as
- --------  -------                                                            
defined in Section 1.3) the number of shares available for delivery in that year
with respect to Awards under the Plan shall be increased to one and one-half
percent (1.5%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the
close of

                                       6

business on the effective date of that Major Combination.  Shares of Common
Stock delivered under the Plan may be original issue shares, shares purchased in
the open market or otherwise or other treasury stock.

     In addition, (a) any shares of Common Stock which as of the effective date
of the Plan are reserved for delivery under the 1987 Plan and which are not
thereafter delivered, and (b) any shares of Common Stock available for delivery
under the Plan in previous years but not actually delivered, shall be added to
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for delivery in that
calendar year under the Plan; provided, however, that no more than 30 percent
                              --------  -------                              
(30%) of the shares of Common Stock available for delivery under the Plan in any
calendar year shall be delivered in respect of Restricted Stock or Restricted
Stock Units.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 6.4, no more than 5,000,000 shares shall be cumulatively
available under the Plan for delivery upon the exercise of ISOs. The Committee
shall have no obligation to grant or award all or any portion of the shares
available for delivery in any year.  The Board may, by resolution, limit the
number of shares that may be available for delivery with respect to Awards under
the Plan in any calendar year to a number of shares lower than would otherwise
be available for delivery hereunder.

     Shares of Common Stock subject to Awards under the Plan that for any reason
are cancelled or terminated, or expire, shall again be available for delivery
under the Plan.

     Shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units that for any reason
are reacquired by BankAmerica pursuant hereto shall again be available for
delivery under the Plan; provided, however, that shares of Restricted Stock or
                         --------  -------                                    
Restricted Stock Units as to which dividends or payments equivalent to dividends
have been paid to or reinvested for the account of the Restricted Stockholder
prior to reacquisition by BankAmerica shall not again be available for delivery
under the Plan after such reacquisition.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither (i) shares of Common Stock
transferred or relinquished to the Company upon the exercise of an Option or in
satisfaction of any withholding obligation, nor (ii) shares of Common Stock
subject to an Award denominated in shares of Common Stock but settled by the
payment of cash in accordance with the Plan, shall again be available for
delivery under the Plan.

     1.8  Effective Date and Term of Plan.    (a) The Plan shall become
effective on March 2, 1992 and the Committee may, in its discretion, make grants
and awards to eligible key officers and other employees of the Company as of
that date, subject, however, to the approval of the Plan by the shareholders of
BankAmerica at the 1992 annual meeting of shareholders.  In the event the Plan
is

                                       7
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
not approved at such meeting, the Plan and all grants and awards hereunder shall
be void, and the Company shall have no obligation to any recipients of such
grants and awards.

          (b) The Committee may make grants and awards under the Plan beginning
March 2, 1992 and during each subsequent year until such time as the Plan may be
terminated by the Board in its sole discretion, or as hereinafter provided.

          (c) Unless the shareholders of BankAmerica shall approve an extension
or renewal of the Plan for such new or additional term as they may determine, no
grants and awards shall be made after March 2, 2002.  However, all grants and
awards made under the Plan prior to such date shall remain in effect until such
grants and awards shall have been satisfied, terminated, or paid out, or expire,
in accordance with the Plan and the terms of such grants and awards.

     1.9 Limitation on Options and SARs Awardable to Any Single Participant.
The maximum number of shares of Common Stock underlying Options and SARs that
may be awarded under the Plan to any single Participant during the period from
March 2, 1992, the effective date of the Plan, through March 2, 2002, is
10,000,000.  The minimum price at which each Option is exercisable and the
minimum grant price of each SAR are specified in Sections 2.3 and 3.1,
respectively, of the Plan.

                                   ARTICLE II

            INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS AND NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS

     2.1  Grant of Stock Options.  The Committee may, from time to time and
subject to the provisions of the Plan and such other terms and conditions as the
Committee may prescribe, grant to any eligible employee Incentive Stock Options
("ISOs" or "Options") and/or Non-Qualified Stock Options ("NQSOs" or "Options")
(as these terms are defined in Section 1.3) to purchase, for cash and/or for
already-owned shares of Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock as
the Committee shall determine.

     2.2  Award Agreements.  The grant of an ISO or NQSO shall be evidenced by a
written Award Agreement in such form as the Committee may from time to time
determine in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, executed by
BankAmerica.  Each Award Agreement pursuant to which Options are granted shall
state the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option, the Option
price, the Option Period, and any limitations on the Option, the restrictions on
assigning and transferring the Option described in Section 6.8, the manner of
payment for shares of Common Stock, and such other terms as the Committee shall
determine.

                                       8
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
     2.3  Option Price.  The purchase price per share of Common Stock which the
Optionee must deliver upon the exercise of an ISO or NQSO shall be fixed by the
Committee, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock on the date the Option is granted.

     2.4  Option Period.  (a)  Each Option granted as an ISO or NQSO shall
become exercisable in part or in full at such time or times as the Committee may
determine and specify in each Award Agreement; provided, however, that no Option
                                               --------  -------                
will be exercisable before the date six months after the date the Option was
granted and no ISO shall be exercisable after the expiration of 10 years from
the date the ISO was granted.

          (b) Each Award Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the
Optionee shall have the right to exercise the Option following the Optionee's
retirement, death or termination of the Optionee's employment with the Company
(including termination that, pursuant to the Award Agreement, may be deemed to
occur upon a change in ownership of the Optionee's employer such that the
Optionee's employer ceases to be BankAmerica or one of its Subsidiaries). Such
provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and need
not be uniform among all Options issued pursuant to the Plan.

          (c) The Committee may determine in its sole discretion from time to
time to permit the Optionee to purchase all shares of Common Stock covered by
the Optionee's Options,  upon or after the Optionee's death, retirement, or
termination of employment with the Company (including termination that, in the
sole discretion of the Committee, may be deemed to occur upon a change in
ownership of the Optionee's employer such that the Optionee's employer ceases to
be BankAmerica or one of its Subsidiaries), without regard to whether the
Options were fully exercisable upon death, retirement or termination of
employment under the terms of the Award Agreements with respect to such Options.

     2.5  Limitation on ISOs.  Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan
or in any ISO agreement, to the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined at the time the option is granted) of stock with respect to which
ISOs granted after December 31, 1986 are exercisable for the first time by an
Optionee during any calendar year under all plans of BankAmerica and its
subsidiaries exceeds $100,000, such options shall be treated as NQSOs.  This
rule shall be applied by taking options into account in the order in which they
were granted so that options with the earliest grant date will receive ISO
treatment.

     No ISO shall be granted to any person who at the time owns more than ten
percent of total combined voting power of all classes of stock of BankAmerica or
of any Subsidiaries.

                                       9
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
     2.6  Manner of Paying Option Price.  On exercise of each ISO or NQSO, the
Option Price shall be paid as follows:  (a) in cash, (b) in already-owned shares
of Common Stock, or (c) in some combination of cash and shares, as specified in
the Award Agreement or as otherwise permitted by the Committee.  Already-owned
shares of Common Stock must have been owned by the Optionee at the time of
exercise for at least the period of time specified in the Award Agreement, and
shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.

     2.7  Exercise of Option.  The Committee shall establish, and shall set
forth in each Award Agreement, the procedures governing the exercise of an ISO
or NQSO.  In general, subject to such specific provisions, an ISO or NQSO shall
be exercised as follows:

          (a) the Optionee shall deliver written notice that he or she intends
     to exercise the Option to the Company department or officer designated in
     the Award Agreement;

          (b) the Optionee shall pay the full Option Price at the time of
     exercise, according to Section 2.6 above; and

          (c) as soon as practicable after receipt of such notice and payment,
     the Company shall direct BankAmerica's transfer agent to register the
     shares of Common Stock in the name of the Optionee.

     2.8  Cancellation of SARs.  Each Award Agreement shall specify whether the
exercise of an ISO or NQSO with respect to a share of Common Stock shall cancel
any SAR related to such share.

     2.9  Cancellation and Regrant of Options.  The Committee may cancel
particular NQSOs and regrant to the same Optionee NQSOs to purchase the same or
a different number of shares of Common Stock, only (i) with the consent of the
Optionee, and (ii) if the Option Price for the NQSOs so regranted is no less
than the higher of (A) the Option Price for the NQSOs so cancelled, or (B) the
Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of regrant.

                                  ARTICLE III

                           STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

     3.1  Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights.  The Committee is hereby
authorized to grant Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") to Participants. The
terms and conditions of the SARs shall be as provided in the Award Agreement
with respect to such SARs.  Each Award Agreement shall specify the grant price,
term, methods of exercise, methods of settlement, disposition of the SARs on
retirement, death or termination of employment of the holder of the SARs, and
such other terms and conditions of the SARs as shall be determined by the
Committee. The Committee may impose such

                                       10
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
conditions or restrictions on the exercise of any SAR as it may deem
appropriate. SARs may be granted either alone or in tandem with grants of
Options under the Plan. SARs granted in tandem with Options are referred to
herein as "Tandem SARs".

     The Committee shall not grant an SAR in tandem with an ISO unless, pursuant
to applicable law and rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service, the
SAR may be attached to the ISO without causing the ISO to fail to meet the
requirements of Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code.

     Subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, an SAR
shall confer on the holder thereof a right to receive payment (the "SAR Value"),
upon exercise thereof, equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of one
share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over (ii) the grant price of the
SAR as specified by the Committee, which shall be not less than the Fair Market
Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the SAR.

     3.2  Form and Timing of Payment.  (a) Exercise of Tandem SARs for Cash or
Common Stock.  Tandem SARs exercised during the Window Period described below
shall be payable only in cash, and Tandem SARs exercised outside the Window
Period shall be payable only in shares of Common Stock.  A "Window Period" is a
period (i) beginning on the third business day following the date of public
release of BankAmerica's quarterly or annual summary statements of revenues and
earnings and (ii) ending on the twelfth business day following such date.

          (b) Amount of Cash Payable on Exercise of Tandem SARs.  When Tandem
SARs are exercised during the Window Period, the Optionee shall receive a cash
amount equal to (i) the number of Tandem SARs exercised multiplied by (ii) the
difference between (A) the highest Fair Market Value of one share of Common
Stock as of any day during the Window Period, and (B) the Option Price specified
for the related Option.

          (c) Number of Shares Issuable or Deliverable on Exercise of Tandem
SARs.  When Tandem SARs are exercised outside the Window Period, the Optionee
shall receive the number of whole shares of Common Stock equal to (i) the
aggregate SAR Value (as defined in Section 3.1) of the Tandem SARs exercised
divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 1.3) on the date of
exercise.  The Company shall deliver cash in lieu of fractional shares.

     3.3  Cancellation of Related Options.  Each Award Agreement shall specify
whether the exercise of an SAR shall cancel any NQSO to which it relates, to the
extent of the exercise.  Any exercise of an SAR with respect to an ISO must be
made in accordance with Section 3.1.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                  RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS


     4.1  Introduction.  BankAmerica has outstanding shares of restricted stock
granted under the 1987 Plan, the BankAmerica Corporation Restricted Stock Bonus
Plan (the "Bonus Plan") and the BankAmerica Corporation Management Incentive
Stock Plan ("MISP").  Restricted stock already granted under the 1987 Plan, the
Bonus Plan and the MISP will continue to be held under the terms of those plans,
except as provided in Section 1.7 of this Plan.  Only grants of Restricted Stock
and Restricted Stock Units made on or after the effective date of this new Plan
shall be governed by the terms of this Article IV.

     4.2  Award of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units.  The Committee
may, from time to time and subject to the provisions of the Plan and such other
terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe, award shares of Common
Stock or Restricted Stock Units to be held under the restrictions set forth in
this Article to any eligible employee (the "Restricted Stockholder").  If an
eligible employee has been employed less than six months, any award of
Restricted Stock shall only be made from Common Stock which is held as treasury
stock by BankAmerica.

     4.3  Minimum Restrictions on Disposition.  A Restricted Stockholder may
not, under any circumstances, voluntarily dispose of any of the Restricted Stock
or Restricted Stock Units prior to the first to occur of the following events:

          (a) the date on which the Restricted Stockholder completes the period
     of continuous service, which shall not be less than one year, with the
     Company following the award date specified by the Committee for such award;

          (b) delivery of the Restricted Stock to the Restricted Stockholder
     following a Committee determination pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof in
     connection with a Change in Control;

          (c) the Restricted Stockholder's retirement or death; or

          (d) delivery of the Restricted Stock to the Restricted Stockholder
     following his or her termination of employment prior to retirement or death
     pursuant to a determination by the Committee under Section 4.6.

The limitations in this Section 4.3 will hereinafter be referred to as the
"minimum restrictions."

                                       12
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
     4.4  Optional Restrictions.  In addition to the minimum restrictions, the
Committee may impose additional restrictions ("optional restrictions") upon the
Restricted Stockholder's voluntary disposition of the Restricted Stock or
Restricted Stock Units, either at the time the Committee makes an award of such
Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units or at any subsequent time before the
minimum restrictions expire.  The Committee may impose optional restrictions
(such as, without limitation, permitting such disposition and release only in
installments over a period of years) as it may deem in the best interests of the
Restricted Stockholder, or in the case of the Restricted Stockholder's death, of
the heirs or legatees who become entitled to such Restricted Stock or Restricted
Stock Units by the applicable laws of inheritance or under the terms of the
Restricted Stockholder's will.

     4.5  Termination of Employment of Restricted Stockholder for Gross
Misconduct.  If a Restricted Stockholder's services are terminated for cause for
gross misconduct, all shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
awarded to any Restricted Stockholder under this Plan shall be forfeited, and
the Committee shall direct such shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock
Units to be transferred and delivered to BankAmerica.  Gross misconduct
includes, but is not limited to, acts of dishonesty, such as theft,
embezzlement, and falsification of the Company's records with intent to deceive;
breach of trust; knowing violation of rules established by the Company; and any
crime determined by the Company to result in termination of employment.

     4.6  Termination of Employment of Restricted Stockholder not Involving
Gross Misconduct.

          (a) Should a Restricted Stockholder who was employed by the Company at
the date of grant terminate his or her employment with the Company prior to (i)
the date on which he or she completes the period of continuous service for the
Company following the award date specified by the Committee for such award, or
(ii) his or her death or retirement, or

          (b) should the Company terminate his or her employment for any reason
other than for a cause set forth in Section 4.5 above,

BankAmerica shall reacquire all the Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
without the payment of consideration in any form to such Restricted Stockholder
and the Restricted Stockholder shall unconditionally forfeit any right, title or
interest to such Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, unless the
Committee, up to 90 days after such termination, determines in its sole
discretion to permit the Restricted Stockholder to (i) retain all or any part of
the Restricted Stock, and/or (ii) to waive in whole or in part any or all
remaining restrictions on Restricted Stock

                                       13
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
Units, and to deliver shares of Common Stock to the Restricted Stockholder in
respect of such Restricted Stock Units.  Upon direction of the Committee, all
forfeited Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall be transferred and
delivered to BankAmerica.  Termination of a Restricted Stockholder's employment
with the Company shall be deemed to include a change in ownership of the
Restricted Stockholder's employer such that the Restricted Stockholder's
employer ceases to be BankAmerica or one of its Subsidiaries.

     4.7  Registration and Escrow.  Any Restricted Stock granted under the Plan
may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee may deem appropriate,
including, without limitation, book-entry registration or issuance of a stock
certificate or certificates. In the event that any stock certificate is issued
in respect of shares of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan, such
certificate shall be registered in the name of the Restricted Stockholder and
shall either bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and
restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, or, at the direction of the
Committee, be held by Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association
(the "Bank") (or another escrow agent appointed by the Committee) in escrow
subject to delivery to the Restricted Stockholder or to BankAmerica at such
times and in such amounts as the Committee shall direct under the terms of the
Plan. When an employee accepts an award of Restricted Stock pursuant to the
Plan, he or she thereby grants an irrevocable power of attorney to the Bank or
any other escrow agent appointed by the Committee to cause the transfer and
delivery to BankAmerica of any such Restricted Stock which the Committee shall
direct to be so transferred and delivered pursuant hereto.

     4.8  Payment in Respect of Restricted Stock Units.

          (a)  Each Restricted Stock Unit shall represent one share of Common
Stock, and shall, at the time and to the extent it becomes vested, be payable by
the delivery of one share of Common Stock.  The Committee is authorized to grant
Restricted Stock Units under which the Restricted Stockholder shall be entitled
to receive payments equivalent to dividends with respect to a number of shares
of Common Stock determined by the Committee, and the Committee may determine
that such amounts (if any) shall be paid to the Restricted Stockholder in cash
from time to time, or be deemed to have been reinvested in additional shares of
Common Stock or additional Restricted Stock Units, or otherwise reinvested.
Restricted Stock Units shall have no voting rights.

          (b)  The Committee may, in its discretion, provide that payment to the
Restricted Stockholder in respect of Restricted Stock Units shall be deferred
until such date or dates, not later than the Restricted Stockholder's death,
retirement or other termination of employment with the Company, as the
Restricted Stockholder may elect.  Any such election shall be filed in writing

                                       14
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
with the Committee in accordance with such rules and regulations, including any
time periods within which such election shall be made, as the Committee may
specify.

     4.9  Dividends on Restricted Stock.  Even while the Restricted Stock is
held in escrow, the Committee may determine that all dividends BankAmerica pays
on the Restricted Stock shall be delivered directly to the Restricted
Stockholder, not the escrow account.

     4.10   Voting Rights.  Even while the Restricted Stock is held in escrow,
the Committee may determine that the Restricted Stockholder shall have the same
voting rights with respect to the Restricted Stock as those provided to other
shareholders of Common Stock.

                                   ARTICLE V

                            OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS

     5.1  Other Stock-Based Awards.  The Committee is hereby authorized to grant
to Participants such awards that are denominated or payable in, valued in whole
or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, shares of
Common Stock (including, without limitation, securities convertible into shares
of Common Stock) as are deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the
purposes of the Plan; provided, however, that such grants must comply with Rule
                      --------  -------                                        
16b-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and applicable law, except that Options may be
transferable to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with the provisions
of, Section 6.8 of the Plan.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and any
applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine the terms and
conditions of such awards.  Shares of Common Stock or other securities delivered
pursuant to a purchase right granted under this Section 5.1 shall be purchased
for such consideration, which may be paid by such method or methods and in such
form or forms, including, without limitation, cash, shares of Common Stock,
other securities, other awards, or other property, or any combination thereof,
as the Committee shall determine, the value of which consideration, as
established by the Committee, shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of
such shares of Common Stock or other securities as of the date such purchase
right is granted.

     personnel records, or

          (c) to such address as either the Company or the Participant shall
     later designate by notice to the other.

     6.2  Amendments of Plan.  BankAmerica may, at any time and from time to
time, modify, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in any respect by action of
the Board or by written amendment executed by a duly authorized officer of
BankAmerica.  Notwithstanding the above, however, any modification, amendment,
suspension or termination of the Plan shall not affect a Participant's rights to
a grant or award previously made, except as provided in Section 1.8(a), or
except with his or her consent.

     6.3  Leaves of Absence.  The Committee shall be entitled to make such
rules, regulations and determinations as it deems appropriate under the Plan in
respect of any leave of absence from the Company taken by the recipient of any
grant or award under the Plan.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled to determine (a) whether or not any
such leave of absence shall be treated as a termination of employment with the
Company within the meaning of the Plan and (b) the impact, if any, of any such
leave of absence on grants and awards under the Plan.

     6.4  Dilution and Other Adjustments.  In the event that the Committee shall
determine that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash,
shares of Common Stock, other securities, or other property), recapitalization,
stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-
up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of shares of Common Stock or
other securities of BankAmerica, issuance of warrants or other rights to
purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities of BankAmerica, or other
similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Common Stock, such that an
adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to prevent
dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be
made available under the Plan, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it
shall deem

                                       16
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of shares of Common
Stock which thereafter may be made the subject of Awards, (ii) the number and
type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to
outstanding Awards, and (iii) the grant, purchase or exercise price with respect
to any Award, or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for a cash payment to
the holder of an outstanding Award; provided, however, in each case, that with
                                    --------  -------                         
respect to Awards of ISOs no such adjustment shall be authorized to the extent
that such authority would cause the Plan to violate Section 422A of the Internal
Revenue Code or any successor provision thereto; and provided further  that the
                                                     -------- -------          
number of shares of Common Stock subject to any Award denominated in shares of
Common Stock shall always be a whole number.

     6.5  General Restriction.  Each grant and award under the Plan shall be
subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Committee shall determine
that (a) the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common
Stock subject or related thereto upon any securities exchange or under any state
or federal law, (b) the consent or approval of any government regulatory body,
or (c) an agreement by the recipient of a grant or award with respect to the
disposition of shares of Common Stock, is necessary or desirable as a condition
of, or in connection with, the making of a grant or award or the issue, delivery
or purchase of shares of Common Stock thereunder, then such grant or award shall
not be consummated in whole or in part unless such listing, registration,
qualification, consent, approval or agreement shall have been effected or
obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

     6.6  Change in Control.  If BankAmerica undergoes a Change in Control (as
defined in Section 1.3(e)),  the following shall apply:

          (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) below, (i) all outstanding
     Options and SARs shall be immediately exercisable in full and (ii) all
     Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Stock-Based Awards
     shall be immediately released free from all restrictions and shall be
     delivered or paid, as the case may be, to the Participant as soon as
     practicable following the Change in Control.

          (b)(i) The Performance Share Units awarded on November 7, 1994 (and
     any subsequent awards of Performance Share Units) under the BankAmerica
     Corporation 1992 MSP Performance Share Program shall vest in the time or
     times specified in Section 4.1 of the Performance Share Program whether or
     not the Participant continues in employment with the Company. However,
     following a Change in Control, the Committee shall no longer have
     discretion to not vest Performance Share Units after the end of the term of
     the Award if BAC ranks 1 or 2 in total shareholder return relative to its
     peer banks for the term of the Award.

          (b)(ii) In the event (i) any Award has been made to a person who, at
     the time of a Change in Control is an officer or director of BankAmerica,
     as such terms are defined in Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of
     1934 and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder,
     and (ii) such Award has not satisfied the applicable minimum vesting
     provisions of the Plan, this Section 6.6 shall apply to such Award
     immediately after the satisfaction of any such applicable minimum vesting
     period, whether or not the person remains an employee of the Company at
     that time.

          (c) Except as provided in the following sentence (and, if applicable,
     the expiration of the minimum vesting period in (b)), in the event a
     Participant terminates employment with the Company following a Change in
     Control, his or her Options and SARs shall remain exercisable for a period
     of three years following termination of employment, not to exceed the
     original term of the Option or SAR. The preceding sentence shall not apply
     to an incentive stock option unless the option agreement gives the
     Committee discretion to permit the incentive stock option to remain
     exercisable following termination of the optionholder's employment, in
     which case the incentive stock option shall be exercisable for three months
     following termination of employment without further Committee action.

          (d) Section 6.7 of the Plan regarding payment of withholding taxes
     shall remain applicable.

     6.7  Withholding Taxes.  The Company shall have the right to deduct from
any settlement of an Award made under the Plan, including the delivery or
vesting of shares, an amount sufficient to cover withholding required by law for
any federal, state or local taxes or to take such other action as may be
necessary to satisfy any such withholding obligations.  The Committee may permit
shares to be used to satisfy required tax withholding and such shares shall be
valued at the Fair Market Value as of the settlement date of the applicable
award.

     6.8  Non-Assignability.  Except as provided below, no Participant shall
have the right to alienate, assign, encumber, hypothecate or pledge his or her
interest in any Award under the Plan, voluntarily or involuntarily, and any
attempt to so dispose of any such interest prior to payment thereof shall be
void.

     Any Participant who is an Executive Officer (as defined below) shall have
the right, subject to the conditions specified in the following paragraph, to
irrevocably transfer to Immediate Family Members (as defined below) Options
granted at any time under the Plan to any such Participant ("Executive Officer
Participant").  As used in the Plan and the related Award Agreements, the
following

                                       18
4015376.05
<PAGE>
 
terms, when written with initial capital letters, shall have the meanings stated
below:

          (a) The term Executive Officer means an Executive Officer designated
     by the Board for federal securities law purposes, provided such officer is
     also a member of the Managing Committee of Bank of America NT&SA.

          (b) The term Immediate Family Members means (i) the children,
     grandchildren or spouse of an Executive Officer Participant or (ii) a trust
     for the benefit of such family members.

     As conditions to such transferability of any Options, (i) the Executive
Officer Participant may not receive any consideration for the transfer; (ii) the
Award Agreements pursuant to which such Options are granted, or amendments to
the Award Agreements with respect to previously granted Options, in each case
approved by the Committee, must specify the actual extent to which such Options
may be transferred, all in accordance with the terms of the Plan; and (iii) the
Options so transferred must continue to be subject to the same terms and
conditions that were applicable to such Options prior to their transfer.

     The transferee of any Options transferred in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Plan shall have the right to exercise such Options and to have
the shares of Common Stock covered by such Options registered in the name of
such transferee, as though such transferee were the Optionee for purposes of
Section 2.7 of the Plan.

     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.8, the Company shall
have the right to offset from any unpaid or deferred Award any amounts due and
owing from the Participant to the extent permitted by law; provided, however,
                                                           --------  ------- 
that with respect to any Options that are transferred in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Plan, such right shall cease upon the transfer.

     6.9  No Right to Employment.   Nothing in the Plan nor in any agreement
entered into pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon any Participant the right to
continue in the employment of the Company, nor affect any right which the
Company may have to terminate the employment of such person.

     6.10 Rights as Shareholder.  No Participant shall have rights as a
shareholder with respect to shares of Common Stock awarded to him or her unless
and until the certificates for such shares are delivered to him or her.  The
Committee may determine that

                                       19
4015376.05

Restricted Stockholders have full voting rights with respect to Restricted
Stock, as provided in Section 4.9 hereof.

     6.11 Entire Plan.  This document is a complete statement of the Plan.  As
of its effective date this document supersedes all prior plans, representations
and proposals, written or oral, relating to its subject matter, except as
otherwise provided in Section 1.7 hereof.  The Company shall not be bound by or
liable to any person for any representation, promise or inducement made by any
employee or agent of it which is not embodied in this document.

     6.12 Governing Law.  The Plan shall be construed and enforced in accordance
with California law.

     6.13 Delegation.  The Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or to a committee of such officers, the
authority, subject to such terms and limitations as the Committee shall
determine, to make grants and awards to, or to cancel, modify, waive rights with
respect to, alter, discontinue, suspend, or terminate grants or awards held by,
officers or employees of the Company, who are not officers or directors of the
Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

     6.14 Foreign Employees.  In order to facilitate the making of any grant or
award under the Plan, the Committee may provide for such special terms for
grants and awards to participants who are foreign nationals or who are employed
by the Company or any Subsidiary outside of the United States of America as the
Committee may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in
local law, policy or custom.  Moreover, the Committee may approve such
supplements to or amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of the Plan
including supplements, amendments or alternative versions providing for Other
Stock-Based Awards as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such
purposes, without thereby affecting the terms of the Plan as in effect for any
other purpose.  No such special terms, supplements, amendments or restatements,
however, shall include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of
the Plan as then in effect unless the Plan could have been amended to eliminate
such inconsistency without further approval by the shareholders of BankAmerica.


     The resolution amending Sections 1.3(e) and 6.6 provided that no
modification, suspension, amendment or termination of the Plan may be made which
would adversely affect the rights of any employee or former employee under the
amendment with respect to any stock option, stock appreciation right, restricted
stock unit or other

stock based award granted under the Plan prior to the date of such modification,
suspension, amendment or termination.
