                PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
                      FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT DISCLOSURE

The conference call and discussion, including related questions and answers, and
presentation materials, contain forward-looking statements about issues like
anticipated first quarter and full-year 2003 earnings, anticipated level of net
loan charge-offs and nonperforming assets and anticipated improvement in
profitability and competitiveness. Forward-looking statements by their nature
are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ
materially from those contained in or implied by such forward-looking statements
for a variety of factors including: changes in interest rates; continued
weakness in the economy, which could materially impact credit quality trends and
the ability to generate loans; failure of the capital markets to function
consistent with customary levels; delay in or inability to execute strategic
initiatives designed to grow revenues and/or manage expenses; consummation of
significant business combinations or divestitures; new legal obligations or
restrictions or unfavorable resolution of litigation; further disruption in the
economy or the general business climate as a result of terrorist activities or
military actions; and changes in accounting, tax or regulatory practices or
requirements.
