Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure

On September 10, 2003, Henry L. Meyer III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Jeffrey B. Weeden, Chief Financial Officer, presented at the Lehman Brothers Financial Services Conference. The presentation addressed the Registrant’s corporate strategy. While not the focus of the presentation, the Registrant also provided updated earnings guidance at the Conference. The slide presentation reviewed by the Registrant in the Conference follows as Annex A to this Item 9. In his spoken remarks at the Conference, Mr. Weeden reported that, as a result of higher levels of prepayments in certain investment and loan portfolios and weak loan demand, management expects: (i) the Registrant’s net interest margin to decline to approximately 3.70% for the second half of 2003 and (ii) the Registrant’s earnings per share to be approximately $2.10 for the full fiscal year 2003.

PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT DISCLOSURE The presentation and discussion, including related questions and answers, and presentation materials, contain forward-looking statements about issues like anticipated third 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. 1
