PRINCIPLES OF ACCOUNTING The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The foregoing financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. The accounting policies followed by Union Planters Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, Union Planters or the Company) for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting except as noted below. The notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Union Planters Corporation's 2000 Annual Report to Shareholders (2000 Annual Report), a copy of which is Exhibit 13 to Union Planters Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 (2000 10-K). Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to be consistent with the 2001 financial reporting presentation. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 requires that an entity record all derivatives in the consolidated balance sheet at their fair value. It also requires changes in fair value to be recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income depending upon the purpose for using the derivative and/or its qualification, designation, and effectiveness as a hedging transaction. In June 2000, the FASB amended portions of SFAS 133 by issuing Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138. The Company adopted these new standards effective January 1, 2001. At adoption, the new accounting standards had an immaterial impact on net income and other comprehensive income. The adoption also had an immaterial impact on the consolidated balance sheet. For the quarter ended March 31, 2001, the net impact on the consolidated statement of earnings was an increase in pretax earnings of $1.9 million ($1.2 million after taxes). DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES -- BUSINESS PERSPECTIVE Union Planters has developed risk management programs and processes designed to manage market risk associated with the Company's business activities. Interest-rate risk is a predominant risk that further influences a number of other business risks such as pricing risk, prepayment risk, valuation risk, balance sheet management and funding risk. As part of its risk management program, the Company utilizes a number of derivative instruments to manage these risks. Loan production activities include the origination or acquisition of mortgage loans, the warehousing of those loans in inventory and the resale of those loans to investors in the secondary market. The Company maintains a risk management program to protect and manage interest-rate risk and pricing risk associated with its mortgage commitment pipeline and mortgage inventory. MORTGAGE PIPELINE. The Company's mortgage commitment pipeline includes interest-rate lock commitments (IRLCs) that have been extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and meet certain defined credit and underwriting criteria. During the term of the IRLC the Company is exposed primarily to interest-rate risk, in that the value of the IRLC may change significantly before the loan closes. To mitigate this interest-rate risk, the Company enters into various hedges of its mortgage pipeline by selling loans forward to investors using mandatory and optional forward commitments. In accordance with SFAS 133, the Company classifies and accounts for IRLCs as nondesignated derivative hedges. Accordingly, IRLCs are recorded at fair value with changes in value recorded to current earnings. Risk management derivative contracts used to economically hedge the IRLCs are also classified and accounted for as nondesignated derivatives. Since a derivative instrument cannot hedge another derivative instrument (for accounting purposes) the pipeline is effectively accounted for as marked-to-market. Gains/losses on nondesignated IRLCs and related derivative contracts had an immaterial impact on the consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2001. BEST EFFORTS COMMITMENTS. A best-efforts commitment represents an agreement whereby a correspondent lender or broker has the option to sell a loan to the Company at a stated price. If the correspondent lender or broker exercises the option, the Company is committed to buy the loan. If the option is not exercised by the correspondent lender or broker, no transaction takes place. Under the provisions of SFAS 133, the best efforts commitments are defined as derivatives and therefore are marked-to-market. The impact on the consolidated financial statements of best efforts commitments is immaterial. 7 8 MORTGAGE INVENTORY. The Company's mortgage inventory includes closed loans that are held for resale pending completion of normal post-closing review. The Company normally requires 60 to 90 days from the date a loan application is received to process a loan for sale. From the loan's closing until its sale, the Company is exposed to credit and interest-rate risk. The primary objective of the warehouse hedge program is to minimize the overall risk to the income statement due to changes in the fair value of the warehouse due to fluctuating interest rates. Therefore, the Company will enter into a portfolio of derivative instruments which, in the aggregate, react to offset changes in the fair value of the loans owned by the Company due to unfavorable changes in the interest rates. Under SFAS 133 these derivative instruments are fair value hedges. For the quarter ended March 31, 2001, derivative instruments related to the mortgage inventory did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS CONSUMMATED ACQUISITIONS On February 12, 2001, Union Planters acquired Jefferson Savings Bancorp, Inc. (Jefferson Savings) of Ballwin, Missouri, the parent of Jefferson Heritage Bank, a federal savings bank. Jefferson Savings had total assets of $1.6 billion, total loans of $1.3 billion, and total deposits of $877 million at acquisition. Union Planters exchanged approximately 4.4 million shares of its common stock for all of the outstanding shares of Jefferson Savings. The acquisition is being accounted for as a purchase. Goodwill and other intangibles resulting from the acquisition were $45 million. Pro forma information has been omitted because the Jefferson Heritage acquisition is not considered significant to Union Planters. Union Planters has announced its intent to repurchase Union Planters' common shares up to the number of shares issued in the transaction. Through March 31, 2001, 2.2 million shares had been purchased and retired. On March 19, 2001, Union Planters entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement to purchase one million shares of the Company's common stock. The execution price for the purchase was $37.71. The agreement matures June 30, 2001. As of March 31, 2001, 399,200 shares had been purchased and retired at an average cost of $35.57. 8 9 NOTE 3.

INCOME TAXES Applicable income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2001 were $54.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 33.92%. Applicable income taxes for the same period in 2000 were $52.0 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 33.90%. The increase in the effective rate in 2001, as compared to 2000, is due primarily to the change in the proportion of taxable and nontaxable revenues. The tax expense applicable to investment securities gains for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $10,000. At March 31, 2001, Union Planters had a net deferred tax asset of $98.0 million compared to $124.5 million at December 31, 2000. The decrease is attributable to the change in the net deferred asset (liability) related to the unrealized gain or loss on available for sale investment securities. Management believes that the deferred tax asset will be fully realized and, therefore, no valuation allowance has been provided. 11 12 NOTE 8. BORROWINGS SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS Short-term borrowings include short-term FHLB advances, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and other short-term borrowings. Short-term FHLB advances are borrowings from the FHLB, which are collateralized by mortgage-backed securities and mortgage loans. Federal funds purchased arise from Union Planters' market activity with its correspondent banks and generally mature in one business day. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are collateralized by U.S. Government and agency securities. Short-term borrowings are summarized as follows: MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------- ------------ 2001 2000 2000 ----------- ----------- ------------ (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Balances at period end: Short-term FHLB advances ........................................ $ 1,500,000 $ 3,000,000 $ 2,400,000 Federal funds purchased ......................................... 2,168,637 853,775 1,813,639 Securities sold under agreements to repurchase .................. 1,630,697 1,530,241 1,869,186 Other short-term borrowings ..................................... 2,103 443 4,071 ----------- ----------- ----------- Total short-term borrowings ........................... $ 5,301,437 $ 5,384,459 $ 6,086,896 =========== =========== =========== Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase Daily average balance ......................................... $ 3,843,865 $ 2,343,982 $ 2,907,150 Weighted average interest rate ................................ 5.35% 5.28% 5.96% Short-term FHLB advances Daily average balance ......................................... $ 2,117,778 $ 3,005,768 $ 2,719,331 Weighted average interest rate ................................ 5.94% 6.00% 6.48% SHORT- AND MEDIUM-TERM SENIOR NOTES UPB has a $5 billion senior and subordinated bank note program to supplement UPB's funding sources.

The Agreements enable these subsidiaries to borrow funds from the FHLB to fund mortgage loan programs and to satisfy certain other funding needs. The value of the mortgage-backed securities and mortgage loans pledged under the Agreements must be maintained at not less than 115% and 150%, respectively, of the advances outstanding. At March 31, 2001, Union Planters had an adequate amount of mortgage-backed securities and loans to satisfy the collateral requirements. A summary of the advances is as follows.

This new system had the effect of changing the amount each segment is charged or credited for funds used. Amounts shown for 2000 have been reclassified to reflect this change. 14 15 NOTE 12. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Union Planters and/or various subsidiaries are parties to certain pending or threatened civil actions which are described in Item 3, Part I of Union Planters' 2000 10-K, in Note 20 to Union Planters' consolidated financial statements on page 67 of the 2000 Annual Report, and in Item 1, Part II of this Report. Various other legal proceedings pending against Union Planters and/or its subsidiaries have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Based upon present information, including evaluations of certain actions by outside counsel, management believes that neither Union Planters' financial position, results of operations, nor liquidity will be materially affected by the ultimate resolution of pending or threatened legal proceedings. There were no significant developments during the first quarter of 2001 in any of the pending or threatened actions that affected such opinion. ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following provides a narrative discussion and analysis of significant changes in Union Planters' results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related financial analysis set forth in Union Planters' 2000 Annual Report, the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes for the three months ended March 31, 2001 included in Part I hereof, and the supplemental financial data included in this discussion. CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). Such statements are based on management's expectations as well as certain assumptions made by, and information available to, management. Specifically, this discussion contains forward-looking statements with respect to the following items: - timing and effects of projected changes in interest rates - effects of changes in general economic conditions - the adequacy of the allowance for losses on loans and the level of future provisions for losses on loans - expected trends in nonperforming assets and the related risk of losses - the effect of legal proceedings on Union Planters' financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity - business plans for the year 2001 and beyond When used in this discussion, the words "anticipate," "project," "expect," "believe," "should" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties including changes in general economic and financial market conditions, changes in banking laws and regulations, and Union Planters' ability to execute its business plans. Although Union Planters believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially. 15 16 SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following table presents selected financial highlights for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000: THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ---------------------------- PERCENTAGE 2001 2000 CHANGE --------- --------- ---------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) NET EARNINGS ..................................... $ 106,367 $ 101,337 5% Per share Basic ........................................ .78 .74 5 Diluted ...................................... .77 .73 5 Return on average assets ....................... 1.23% 1.23% Return on average common equity ................ 14.54 14.39 CASH OPERATING EARNINGS .......................... $ 120,272 $ 114,659 5 Per share Basic ........................................ .88 .84 5 Diluted ...................................... .87 .83 5 Return on average assets ....................... 1.39% 1.39% Return on average common equity ................ 16.44 16.29 Return on average tangible assets .............. 1.43 1.43 Return on average tangible common equity ....... 24.38 24.77 Dividends per common share ....................... $ .50 $ .50 -- Net interest margin (FTE) ........................ 4.05% 4.34% Net interest spread (FTE) ........................ 3.34 3.70 Expense ratio .................................... 1.25 1.56 Efficiency ratio ................................. 56.31 56.68 Book value per common share ...................... $ 22.39 $ 19.77 13 Leverage ratio ................................... 6.61% 6.48% Common share prices High closing price ............................. $ 39.12 $ 37.25 Low closing price .............................. 34.70 25.63 Closing price at quarter end ................... 38.49 30.81 --------------- Cash operating earnings = Net earnings adjusted for the after-tax impact of goodwill and other intangibles amortization and nonoperating items Net interest margin = Net interest income (FTE) as a percentage of average earning assets Net interest spread = Difference in the FTE yield on average earning assets and the rate on average interest-bearing liabilities Expense ratio = Operating net noninterest expense [noninterest expense minus noninterest income, excluding significant nonoperating revenues/expenses, investment securities gains (losses) and goodwill and other intangibles amortization] divided by average assets Efficiency ratio = Operating noninterest expense (excluding significant nonoperating expenses and goodwill and other intangibles amortization) divided by net interest income (FTE) plus noninterest income, excluding significant nonoperating revenues and investment securities gains (losses) FTE = Fully taxable-equivalent basis 16 17 OPERATING RESULTS -- THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND 2000 The following table presents a summary of Union Planters' operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 identifying significant nonoperating items impacting the results for the periods shown.

This compared to cash operating earnings for the same period in 2000 of $114.7 million, or $.83 per diluted common share and $116.6 million, or $.86 per diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2000. Cash operating earnings for the first quarter of 2001 resulted in annualized returns on average assets, average common equity, and average tangible common equity of 1.39%, 16.44%, and 24.38%, respectively, which compares to 1.39%, 16.29%, and 24.77%, respectively, for the same period in 2000. Net earnings were $106.4 million, or $.77 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2001, an increase from $101.3 million, or $.73 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2000. These earnings represented annualized returns on average assets and average common equity of 1.23% and 14.54%, respectively, compared to 1.23% and 14.39%, respectively, for the same period in 2000. Reference is made to the "Summary of Consolidated Results" on page 16 for a comparison of the nonoperating items impacting results for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. 18 19 EARNINGS ANALYSIS NET INTEREST INCOME Tax-equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of 2001 was $320.3 million, an increase of $10.5 million from $309.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2000 and down slightly from $323.9 million for the first quarter of 2000. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2001 was 4.05%, which compares to 3.95% and 4.34%, respectively, for the fourth and first quarters of 2000. The interest-rate spread was 3.34% for the first quarter of 2001, an increase from 3.20% for the fourth quarter of 2000, and down from 3.70% for the first quarter of 2000. The increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2000 was attributable to loan growth, improved pricing of loan products, and the overall decline in interest rates. The decline in net interest income in the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000 was due primarily to the rising interest-rate environment during the first quarter of 2000 and the fact that the Company was liability sensitive within a one-year time period. Reference is made to Union Planters' average balance sheet and analysis of volume and rate changes, which follow this discussion, for additional information regarding the changes in net interest income. INTEREST INCOME The following table presents a breakdown of average earning assets. THREE MONTHS ENDED ------------------------------------------ MARCH 31, ----------------------- DECEMBER 31, 2001 2000 2000 ------- ------- ------------ (DOLLARS IN BILLIONS) Average earning assets .......................................... $ 32.1 $ 30.0 $ 31.2 Comprised of: Loans ....................................................... 78% 73% 77% Investment securities ....................................... 21 25 22 Other earning assets ........................................ 1 2 1 ------------------------- Fully taxable-equivalent yield on average earning assets ........ 8.31% 8.17% 8.41% Taxable-equivalent interest income increased $47.6 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. The increase was attributable to the 6.8% increase in average earning assets, primarily loans, which accounted for $44.4 million of the increase in interest income. Interest income increased $3.2 million due to the increase in the average yield on earning assets from 8.17% to 8.31%. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, interest income declined $2.0 million. The decline was attributable to a decrease in the average yield on average earning assets from 8.41% to 8.31%, a $15.2 million decline in interest income. This decrease was partially offset by a 2.9% increase in average earning assets, which increased interest income $13.2 million. Average loans, excluding FHA/VA loans, were $24.9 billion for the first quarter of 2001 compared to $21.5 billion for the same quarter in 2000 and compared to $23.7 billion for the fourth quarter of 2000. The securitization and sale of loans and the acquisition of Jefferson Heritage impacted average loans for the first quarter of 2001. Excluding the impact of these two items, average loans increased 12.7% during the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same quarter last year. The increase was driven by 22.3% growth in residential real estate loans and 11.8% growth in commercial, financial and agricultural loans. Consistent with the current economic conditions, loan growth in the first quarter of 2001 slowed when compared with the fourth quarter of 2000. This slowing was seen in all types of loans. Residential real estate loans increased 5.1%, while consumer loans decreased 3.6% during the first quarter. The recent decreases in interest rates are expected to increase the level of mortgage loan refinancings, which will increase prepayments related to mortgage-backed loans and investments. At March 31, 2001, approximately 34% of Union Planters' earning assets were mortgage-backed loans and mortgage-backed securities. Reference is made to the Asset/Liability and Market Risk Management section of this discussion for additional information regarding the impact of lower interest rates on interest income. This is a forward-looking statement and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those identified in this discussion and in the discussion of Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information. 19 20 INTEREST EXPENSE The following table presents a breakdown of average interest-bearing liabilities. THREE MONTHS ENDED ------------------------------------------ MARCH 31, ----------------------- DECEMBER 31, 2001 2000 2000 ------- ------- ------------ (DOLLARS IN BILLIONS) Average interest-bearing liabilities ............................ $ 27.5 $ 25.8 $ 26.7 Comprised of: Deposits .................................................... 70% 75% 71% Short-term borrowings ....................................... 22 21 23 FHLB advances and long-term debt ............................ 8 4 6 ------------------------ Rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities ............... 4.97% 4.47% 5.21% Interest expense increased $51.2 million in the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same quarter last year. The increase was driven by a 6.8% increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, which accounted for $29.0 million of the increase. Additionally, an increase in the average rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities from 4.47% to 4.97% accounted for $22.2 million of the increase. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, interest expense decreased $12.5 million. A decrease in interest rates resulted in a $20.1 million decrease in interest expense. This decrease was partially offset by the growth of average interest-bearing liabilities, which increased interest expense $7.6 million. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000 was attributable to increases in both short-term and long-term debt. These funding sources were increased in response to decreases in average deposits. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities compared to the fourth quarter of 2000 was attributable to an increase in FHLB advances and a $183 million increase in subordinated notes. The recent decreases in interest rates by the Federal Reserve are expected to lower Union Planters' borrowing cost since 22% of Union Planters' average interest-bearing liabilities are short-term borrowings. Reference is made to the Asset/Liability and Market Risk section for a discussion of the impact of declining interest rates. This is a forward-looking statement and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those identified in this discussion and in the discussion of Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information. PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS The provision for losses on loans for the first quarter of 2001 was $25.3 million, or .41% of average loans on an annualized basis. This compares to $20.1 million, or .34% of average loans, for the fourth quarter of 2000 and $17.3 million, or .32% of average loans, for the first quarter of 2000. The higher provision for losses on loans in the first quarter of 2001 is attributable to the growth of loans and the downturn in the economy and the resulting increase in nonperforming loans. Reference is made to the "Allowance for Losses on Loans" and "Nonperforming Loans" discussions for additional information regarding loan charge-offs and other items impacting the provision for losses on loans. NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2001 was $164.9 million, an increase of $18.9 million, or 13.0%, from the fourth quarter of 2000 and an increase of $37.3 million, or 29.3%, from the first quarter of 2000. Growth of noninterest income continues to be one of management's priorities. Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenues increased to 34.7% in the first quarter of 2001, compared to 28.8% for the same quarter last year and 32.5% for the fourth quarter of 2000. The major components of noninterest income are presented on the consolidated statement of earnings and in Note 6 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. The strong growth in noninterest income is attributable to successful efforts in several areas. Additionally, the Jefferson Heritage acquisition in February 2001 added $793,000 and the Strategic Outsourcing, Inc. (SOI) acquisition in April 2000 added $6.0 million to noninterest income. MORTGAGE BANKING REVENUES. These revenues increased $16.7 million in the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000 and increased $9.6 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. The lower interest-rate environment and the securitization and sale of home mortgage loans were the primary drivers of the growth. In the first quarter of 2001, Union Planters securitized and sold $417 million of loans, which resulted in a gain of $8.2 million. 20 21 SERVICE CHARGES ON DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. These fees increased 27.1% to $53.4 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. Service charges on deposit accounts were $47.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2000. The increase is attributable to a more consistent administration of competitive pricing and collections on all account relationships across the entire franchise. SOI REVENUES. SOI is one of the largest providers of professional employment services in the United States, which include workers' compensation, employee benefits management, payroll administration, safety and risk management services, human resource administration, and compliance administration. Clients, who are typically small- and medium-sized businesses, are provided cost-effective approaches to the management of critical human resource responsibilities and employer risks. Net SOI revenues were $6.0 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to $6.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2000. BANK CARD INCOME. These revenues are primarily from Union Planters' merchant processing, which are earned by the conversion to cash of payments received by merchants from customers using credit cards, debit cards, purchase cards, and private label cards. Bank card income increased $1.2 million to $9.7 million for the first quarter of 2001 as compared to the first quarter last year. These revenues were essentially flat as compared with the fourth quarter of 2000. OTHER NONINTEREST INCOME. Revenues from Union Planters' Small Business Administration (SBA) trading operations are generated from buying, selling, and securitizing government-guaranteed SBA pools and government-guaranteed portions of SBA loans. These revenues increased $1.3 million to $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same first quarter of 2000. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, these revenues increased $1.1 million. Union Planters has a limited partnership investment of $9.8 million in VSIBG, a registered broker-dealer whose principal business is the purchase and sale of fixed income securities for institutional clients. Union Planters' share of earnings from this investment increased $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period last year and compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2001 increased $18.0 million to $289.7 million, which compares to $271.7 million for the first quarter of 2000 and $276.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2000. The Jefferson Heritage acquisition and SOI acquisition increased noninterest expense $7.8 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, the Jefferson Heritage acquisition increased noninterest expense $3.3 million. The major components of noninterest expense are presented on the consolidated statement of earnings and in Note 6 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. SALARIES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS. These expenses represent the largest category of noninterest expenses and increased $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2001 to $132.3 million when compared to the first quarter of 2000. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, these expenses increased $14.0 million. At March 31, 2001, Union Planters had 12,608 full-time equivalent employees, compared to 12,711 and 12,444, respectively, at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000. OCCUPANCY AND EQUIPMENT EXPENSE. Net occupancy and equipment expense was $47.9 million for the first quarter of 2001, an increase of $3.4 million and $4.0 million, respectively, from the first quarter of 2000 and fourth quarter of 2000. These expenses increased due to the Jefferson Heritage and SOI acquisitions. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES AMORTIZATION. The increase in the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles is attributable to the Jefferson Heritage and SOI acquisitions. MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS AMORTIZATION. The lower interest-rate environment during the first quarter of 2001 resulted in increased amortization of mortgage servicing rights as well as a valuation allowance. The increase in this expense item for the first quarter of 2001 was $5.7 million compared to the same period in 2000, and the increase was $5.0 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. OTHER MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES. For the first quarter of 2001, miscellaneous charge-offs increased $2.6 million to $2.7 million. The increase over the same period last year was due to a recovery of previously charged-off items in the first quarter of 2000. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, miscellaneous charge-offs decreased $7.1 million. Advertising and promotion expense for the first quarter of 2001 decreased $2.7 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. 21 22 UNION PLANTERS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET AND INTEREST RATES THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2001 2000 --------------------------------------- -------------------------------- INTEREST FTE INTEREST FTE AVERAGE INCOME/ YIELD/ AVERAGE INCOME/ YIELD/ BALANCE EXPENSE RATE BALANCE EXPENSE RATE ------------ ------------ ------ ----------- --------- ------ (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) ASSETS Interest-bearing deposits at financial institutions ................................... $ 33,320 $ 487 5.93% $ 35,491 $ 320 3.63% Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell ..................... 34,799 519 6.05 71,232 1,029 5.81 Trading account assets ........................... 206,574 4,237 8.32 265,569 5,054 7.65 Investment securities(1)(2) Taxable ........................................ 5,450,605 88,685 6.60 6,369,279 101,691 6.42 Tax-exempt ..................................... 1,183,380 22,958 7.87 1,275,936 24,692 7.78 ------------ ------------ ----------- -------- Total investment securities .............. 6,633,985 111,643 6.83 7,645,215 126,383 6.65 Loans, net of unearned income(1)(3)(4) ........... 25,195,199 540,797 8.70 22,030,701 477,323 8.71 ------------ ------------ ----------- -------- TOTAL EARNING ASSETS(1)(2)(3)(4) ......... 32,103,877 657,683 8.31 30,048,208 610,109 8.17 ------------ ------------ ----------- -------- Cash and due from banks ............................ 793,520 976,291 Premises and equipment ............................. 602,916 632,962 Allowance for losses on loans ......................

FINANCIAL CONDITION Union Planters' total assets were $35.4 billion at March 31, 2001, compared to $33.4 billion at March 31, 2000 and $34.7 billion at December 31, 2000. Average assets were $35.1 billion for the first quarter of 2001 compared to $33.3 billion for the first quarter of 2000. The increase in the first quarter of 2001 relates primarily to the Jefferson Heritage acquisition (see Note 2 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements). Earning assets at March 31, 2001 were $32.5 billion, an increase of $.9 billion from December 31, 2000. Average earning assets were $32.1 billion for the first quarter of 2001 which compares to $30.0 billion for the same period last year and compared to $31.2 billion for the fourth quarter of 2000. INVESTMENT SECURITIES Union Planters' investment securities portfolio of $6.5 billion at March 31, 2001 consisted entirely of available for sale securities, which are carried on the balance sheet at fair value. This compares to investment securities of $7.3 billion and $6.8 billion at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The decrease in investment securities is consistent with management's strategy of reducing the proportion of investment securities to total earning assets as loan growth occurs. At March 31, 2001, these securities had net unrealized gains of $90.2 million (before income taxes). This compares to net unrealized losses of $230.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively, at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000. The change from an unrealized loss in the portfolio to an unrealized gain resulted from the decreasing interest-rate environment. Reference is made to Note 5 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements which provides the composition of the investment portfolio at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. 23 24 U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agency obligations represented approximately 50.6% of the investment securities portfolio at March 31, 2001, (82.0% of which were Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) and mortgage-backed securities issues). Union Planters has some credit risk in the investment portfolio; however, management does not consider that risk to be significant and does not believe that cash flows will be significantly impacted. Reference is made to the "Net Interest Income" and "Asset/Liability and Market Risk Management" discussions for information regarding the market-risk in the investment securities portfolio. The limited credit risk in the investment securities portfolio at March 31, 2001 consisted of 26.2% investment grade CMOs, 18.7% municipal obligations, and 4.5% other stocks and securities (primarily Federal Reserve Bank and FHLB stock). LOANS Loans, net of unearned income, at March 31, 2001 were $24.6 billion compared to $22.2 billion and $24.0 billion at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000, respectively. Average loans for the first quarter of 2001 were $25.2 billion compared to $22.0 billion for the first quarter of 2000 and $24.0 billion for the fourth quarter of 2000. Note 3 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included in Part I. Item 1 of this report presents the composition of the loan portfolio. Excluding FHA/VA loans, average loans increased 15.7% in the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. The acquisition of Jefferson Heritage increased average loans $674 million. At the end of the first quarter of 2001, the Company securitized and sold $417 million of residential loans (which had a $42 million average impact on loans for the quarter). Excluding the impact of the acquisition and the loan securitization and sale, average loans increased 12.7%. The loan growth in the first quarter compared to the first quarter last year was driven by a 22.3% increase in residential real estate loans, an 11.8% increase in commercial, financial, and agricultural loans, and an 11.8% increase in other real estate loans. Consumer loans decreased 4.5% over this same time period. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, average loans increased 2.6%. The slower rate of growth was consistent with the slowing of overall economic growth. During this period, residential real estate loans grew 5.1%, commercial, financial, and agricultural loans grew 3.1% and other real estate loans grew 1.9%. Consumer loans decreased 3.6% compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES ON LOANS Union Planters maintains the allowance for losses on loans (the allowance) at a level deemed sufficient to absorb estimated losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is reviewed quarterly to assess the risk in the portfolio. This methodology includes assigning loss factors to loans with similar characteristics for which estimates of inherent probable loss can be assessed. The loss factors are based on historical experience as adjusted for current business and economic conditions, and are applied to the respective portfolios to assist in determination of the overall adequacy of the allowance. A periodic review of selected loans (based on loan size) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk or inherent losses. The primary responsibility for this review rests with management who has been assigned accountability for the credit relationship. This review is supplemented with periodic reviews by Union Planters' credit review function and regulatory agencies. These reviews provide information which assists in the timely identification of problems or potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit represents a probable loss or risk which should be recognized. 24 25 The following table provides a reconciliation of the allowance at the dates indicated and certain key ratios for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and for the year ended December 31, 2000.

The allowance at March 31, 2000 was $345.8 million. The increase in the allowance from December 31, 2000 related to an increase from the acquisition of Jefferson Heritage and the provision for losses on loans exceeding net charge-offs by $2.7 million in the first quarter. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were .37% for the first quarter of 2001, an increase over the first quarter of 2000 and up slightly from the level for all of 2000. The higher levels of charge-offs were primarily related to real estate loans. With a slowing economy, the level of charge-offs is likely to trend upward over the next few quarters. This is a forward-looking statement and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those identified in this discussion and in the discussion of Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information. 25 26 NONPERFORMING ASSETS NONACCRUAL, RESTRUCTURED, AND PAST DUE LOANS AND FORECLOSED PROPERTIES MARCH 31, ----------------------- DECEMBER 31, 2001 2000 2000 -------- -------- ------------ (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) NONACCRUAL LOANS ............................................................... $174,027 $130,483 $133,269 RESTRUCTURED LOANS ............................................................. 1,401 1,811 1,512 -------- -------- -------- TOTAL NONPERFORMING LOANS ............................................ 175,428 132,294 134,781 -------- -------- -------- FORECLOSED PROPERTIES Other real estate owned, net ................................................. 54,819 38,798 40,366 Other foreclosed property .................................................... 2,016 1,300 2,770 -------- -------- -------- TOTAL FORECLOSED PROPERTIES .......................................... 56,835 40,098 43,136 -------- -------- -------- TOTAL NONPERFORMING ASSETS ........................................... $232,263 $172,392 $177,917 ======== ======== ======== LOANS PAST DUE 90 DAYS OR MORE AND STILL ACCRUING INTEREST ..................... $109,705 $ 81,738 $ 96,662 ======== ======== ======== FHA/VA GOVERNMENT-INSURED/GUARANTEED LOANS Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest ................... $129,776 $216,185 $121,303 Nonaccrual loans ............................................................. 3,216 5,767 3,615 RATIOS(1): Nonperforming loans/loans, net of unearned income ............................ .72% .61% .57% Nonperforming assets/loans, net of unearned income plus foreclosed properties.................................................................. .95 .79 .75 Allowance for losses on loans/nonperforming loans ............................ 195 261 249 Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest/loans, net ........ .45 .38 .41 of unearned income ---------------- (1) FHA/VA government-insured/guaranteed loans are excluded from loans in the ratio calculations.

LOANS OTHER THAN FHA/VA LOANS. As shown in the table above, nonperforming assets increased $54.3 million over year-end and $59.9 million over March 31, 2000. With a slowing of the economy, a general increase in all categories of nonperforming assets was experienced during the first quarter. The largest increase related to residential real estate loans. The increase was also partially attributable to the Jefferson Heritage acquisition, which increased nonperforming assets $13 million. This trend is expected to continue in the second quarter unless economic conditions improve. Management believes the risk of losses in nonperforming assets will be mitigated by the diversity of the loan portfolio and the conservative underwriting practices across the banking franchise. These are forward-looking 26 27 statements and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those mentioned in the Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information at the beginning of this discussion. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest totaled $109.7 million, or .45% of loans, at March 31, 2001 compared to $96.7 million, or .41%, and $81.7 million, or .38% of loans, at December 31, 2000 and March 31, 2000, respectively. The preceding table details the composition of these loans. As discussed above the increase in these loans related primarily to the slowing of the economy. FHA/VA LOANS. FHA/VA government-insured/guaranteed loans do not, in management's opinion, have traditional credit risk inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio and risk of principal loss is considered minimal. FHA/VA loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest totaled $129.8 million at March 31, 2001 which compares to $216.2 million and $121.3 million at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The decrease in past due loans relates to a decline in the overall volume of these loans. At March 31, 2001, March 31, 2000, and December 31, 2000, $3.2 million, $5.8 million and $3.6 million, respectively, of these loans were placed on nonaccrual status by management because the contractual payment of interest by FHA/VA had stopped due to missed filing dates. No loss of principal is expected from these loans. FHA/VA FORECLOSURE CLAIMS Provisions for losses related to FHA/VA claims are provided through noninterest expense as provisions for losses on FHA/VA foreclosure claims and the corresponding liability is carried in other liabilities. At March 31, 2001, the Company had a reserve for FHA/VA claims losses of $8.1 million compared to $11.2 million and $18.4 million at December 31, 2000 and March 31, 2000, respectively. POTENTIAL PROBLEM ASSETS Potential problem assets are assets which are generally collateralized and not currently considered nonperforming, but where information about possible credit problems has caused management to have serious doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply in the future with present repayment terms. Historically, these assets were loans, which became nonperforming. At March 31, 2001, Union Planters had potential problem assets of $66.7 million, composed of 15 loans, the largest being $13.5 million. This compares to $44.1 million, or 11 loans, at December 31, 2000 and $52.2 million, or 14 loans, at March 31, 2000. DEPOSITS Union Planters' core deposit base is its most important and stable funding source and consists of deposits from the communities served by Union Planters.

Average first quarter of 2001 deposits were increased $456 million ($858 million as of March 31, 2001) by the Jefferson Heritage acquisition. The downward trend in deposit levels is due primarily to the competitive environment in the markets Union Planters serves. Management is continuing to monitor deposit pricing in all the markets it serves to ensure competitive levels. 27 28 SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Union Planters' total shareholders' equity increased by $168 million from December 31, 2000 to $3.1 billion at March 31, 2001. The major items affecting shareholders' equity are as follows: - $148.8 million increase due to the Jefferson Heritage acquisition. - $60.7 million increase due to the net change in the unrealized gain or loss on available for sale investment securities. - $38.5 million increase due to retained net earnings (net earnings less dividends paid). - $3.0 million increase due to common stock issued for employee benefit plans. - $83.0 million decrease due to shares purchased (2.2 million shares purchased). On February 17, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase from time to time of up to an additional 7.1 million shares. The purchases were expected to take place over a period of 18 to 24 months (beginning February 2000) either in the open market or privately negotiated transactions. As of March 31, 2001, 1.6 million shares had been purchased under this plan. Management has also announced the intent to purchase shares up to the number of shares issued in the Jefferson Heritage acquisition. As of March 31, 2001, 2.2 million of the 4.4 million shares issued in the acquisition have been purchased.

Deposits, available for sale securities and money market investments are Union Planters' primary sources of liquidity. Liquidity is also achieved through short-term borrowings, borrowings under available lines of credit, and issuance of securities and debt instruments in the financial markets. Union Planters believes it has adequate liquidity to meet its operating requirements. Parent company liquidity is achieved and maintained by dividends received from subsidiaries, interest on advances to subsidiaries, and interest on its available for sale investment securities portfolio. At March 31, 2001, the parent company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $585.0 million, which compares to $170.2 million and $154.6 million, respectively, at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000. Net working capital (total assets maturing within one year less similar liabilities) was $579.3 million, which compares to $195.1 million and $162.8 million, respectively, at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000. The increase in parent company liquidity relates to the issuance of $500 million of subordinated notes in February 2001. At April 1, 2001, the parent company could have received dividends from subsidiaries of $108 million without prior regulatory approval. The payment of dividends by Union Planters' subsidiaries will be dependent on the future earnings and growth of the subsidiaries. Management believes that the parent company has adequate liquidity to meet its cash needs, including the payment of its regular dividends and servicing of its debt. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK ASSET/LIABILITY AND MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT Union Planters' assets and liabilities are principally financial in nature and the resulting earnings, primarily net interest income, are subject to changes as a result of fluctuations in market interest rates and the mix of the various assets and liabilities. Interest rates in the financial markets affect decisions on pricing its assets and liabilities, which impacts net interest income, which is approximately 65% of Union Planters' operating revenues. As a result, a substantial part of Union Planters' risk management activities are devoted to managing interest-rate risk. Currently, Union Planters does not have any significant risks related to foreign exchange, commodities or equity risk exposure. INTEREST-RATE RISK. One of the most important aspects of management's efforts to sustain long-term profitability for Union Planters is the management of interest-rate risk. Management's goal is to maximize net interest income within acceptable levels of interest-rate risk and liquidity. To achieve this goal, a proper balance must be maintained between assets and liabilities with respect to size, maturity, repricing date, rate of return, and degree of risk. The Union Planters' Asset/Liability Management Committee (the ALCO Committee) oversees the conduct of asset/liability and interest-rate management. The ALCO Committee meets monthly and reviews the outlook for the economy and interest rates, Union Planters' balance sheet structure, and yields on earning assets and rates on interest-bearing liabilities. Union Planters uses two methods to measure interest-rate risk, interest-rate sensitivity analysis and simulation analysis. Interest-rate sensitivity analysis (GAP analysis) is used to monitor the amounts and timing of balances exposed to changes in interest rates, as shown in the following table. The analysis has been made at a point in time and could change significantly on a daily 29 30 basis. At March 31, 2001, the interest-rate sensitivity gap within the one-year period was 6% of Union Planters' total assets with $2.0 billion more liabilities repricing than assets. This compares to 13% of Union Planters' total assets at December 31, 2000 with $4.6 billion more liabilities repricing than assets at December 31, 2000. The shift in sensitivity from December 31, 2000 occurred primarily as a result of management initiatives and strategies, which included asset sales, long-term debt issuance, and retirement of short-term borrowings. At the one-year GAP, $4.3 billion of the liabilities are scheduled money market, savings, and interest-bearing checking deposits whose rates are administered by management. For purposes of the GAP analysis, total money market, savings, and interest-bearing checking deposits of $8.7 billion that have no contractual maturity are scheduled according to management's best estimate of their repricing in response to changes in interest rates. Even with conservative estimates of their rate sensitivity, the resulting impact on earnings at risk in simulation analysis produces results, which bring interest-rate risk into an acceptable range and one not implied by GAP analysis alone. Interest-rate risk is evaluated by conducting balance sheet simulation analysis to project net interest income for twelve months forward under different interest rate scenarios. Each of these scenarios is compared with a base case scenario wherein current market rates and current period balances are held constant for the simulation period. The scenarios include immediate "shocks" to current rates of 200 basis points up and down and a "most likely" scenario in which current rates are moved according to economic forecasts and management's expectations of changes in administered rates. The results of these simulations are compared to policy guidelines approved by the ALCO Committee of Union Planters. The policy limits the changes of net interest income to 20% of net operating earnings (net earnings before nonoperating items, net of taxes, annualized - see the "Summary of Consolidated Results" on page 16) when compared with the base case (flat) scenario. The simulations have consistently fallen within the policy guidelines. At March 31, 2001, the 200 basis point immediate rise in interest rates produced a projected 7.6% ($33 million after-tax) decrease in net operating earnings, which compares to a projected 15.4% ($63 million after-tax) decrease at December 31, 2000. The 200 basis point immediate fall in interest rates produced a projected 1.5% ($6 million after-tax) increase in net operating earnings versus a projected 7.6% ($31 million after-tax) increase at December 30, 2000. The "most likely" calculated scenario at March 31, 2001 produced a projected .4% ($2 million after-tax) decrease in net operating earnings compared to a projected 2.6% ($11 million after-tax) increase in net operating earnings at December 31, 2000. The "most likely" scenario at March 31, 2001 assumed the Federal Funds rate decreases 75 basis points to 4.25% over the next three months and then remains flat over the remaining nine months of the twelve-month period. The "most likely" scenario at December 31, 2000 assumed the Federal Funds rate decreasing 100 basis points over the first six months of 2001 and then remaining flat over the remainder of 2001. These are forward-looking statements and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those identified in this discussion and in the discussion of Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information. The key assumptions used in simulation analysis include the following - prepayment rates on mortgage-related assets - cash flows and maturities of all financial instruments - changes in volumes and pricing - future shapes of the yield curve - money market spreads - credit spreads - deposit sensitivity - management's financial capital plan These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the simulation cannot precisely estimate net interest income or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest-rate changes, the difference between actual experience and the characteristics assumed, and changes in market conditions and management strategies. 30 31 UNION PLANTERS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS AT MARCH 31, 2001 INTEREST-SENSITIVE WITHIN(1)(7) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NON- 0-90 91-180 181-365 1-3 3-5 5-15 OVER 15 INTEREST- DAYS DAYS DAYS YEARS YEARS YEARS YEARS BEARING TOTAL ------- ------- ------- ------ ------ ------ ------- --------- ------- (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS) ASSETS Loans and leases(2)(3)(4) ....... $ 9,431 $ 2,198 $3,435 $6,587 $2,203 $ 235 $ 28 $ 503 $24,620 Investment securities(5)(6) ..... 548 194 404 1,777 1,821 1,479 210 90 6,523 Other earning assets ............ 1,347 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 1,347 Other assets .................... -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 2,933 2,933 ------- ------- ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------- ------- TOTAL ASSETS ................ $11,326 $ 2,392 $3,839 $8,364 $4,024 $1,714 $ 238 $ 3,526 $35,423 ======= ======= ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======= ======= SOURCES OF FUNDS Money market deposits(7)(8) ..... $ 1,451 $ -- $1,332 $1,372 $ -- $ $ -- $ -- $ 4,155 Savings and interest-bearing checking deposits(7)(8) ....... 1,504 -- -- 1,504 -- 1,550 -- -- 4,558 Other time deposits ............. 2,268 2,519 2,380 1,256 205 32 2 -- 8,662 Certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over ............. 797 674 529 159 22 1 -- -- 2,182 Short-term borrowings ........... 5,301 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 5,301 Short- and medium-term senior notes ................. -- 40 20 -- -- -- -- -- 60 Federal Home Loan Bank Advances ..................... 600 -- -- 531 11 220 -- -- 1,362 Other long-term debt ............ 102 -- -- 75 100 800 199 -- 1,276 Noninterest-bearing deposits .... -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 4,048 4,048 Other liabilities ............... -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 731 731 Shareholders' equity ............ -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 3,088 3,088 ------- ------- ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------- ------- TOTAL SOURCES OF FUNDS ...... $12,023 $ 3,233 $4,261 $4,897 $ 338 $2,603 $ 201 $ 7,867 $35,423 ======= ======= ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======= ======= INTEREST-RATE SENSITIVITY GAP ..... $ (697) $ (841) $ (422) $3,467 $3,686 $ (889) $ 37 $(4,341) CUMULATIVE INTEREST-RATE SENSITIVITY GAP(8) ..............

None +/-15% +/-10% +/-5% >0% >0% >0% --------------- Management has made the following assumptions in presenting the above analysis: (1) Assets and liabilities are generally scheduled according to their earliest repricing dates regardless of their contractual maturities. (2) Nonaccrual loans and accounts receivable-factoring are included in the noninterest-bearing category. (3) Fixed-rate mortgage loan maturities include estimates of principal prepayments using industry estimates of prepayment speeds for various coupon segments of the portfolio. (4) Delinquent FHA/VA loans are scheduled based on foreclosure and repayment patterns. (5) The scheduled maturities of mortgage-backed securities and CMOs assume principal prepayment of these securities calculated within a proprietary cash flow model. (6) Securities are generally scheduled according to their call dates when valued at a premium to par. (7) Money market deposits and savings deposits that have no contractual maturities are scheduled according to management's best estimate of their repricing in response to changes in market rates. The impact of changes in market rates would be expected to vary by product type and market. (8) If all money market, NOW, and savings deposits had been included in the 0-90 Days category above, the cumulative gap as a percentage of total assets would have been negative (18%), (21%), and (18%) for the 0-90 Days, 91-180 Days 181-365 Days, 0% for the 1-3 Years categories and positive 10%, 12%, and 12%, respectively, for the 3-5 Years, 5-15 Years, and over 15 Years categories at March 31, 2001. 31 32 PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1 -- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Union Planters' and/or its' various subsidiaries are parties to certain pending or threatened civil actions, including an action that was filed on February 20, 2001, which are described in Item 3, Part I of the Union Planters 2000 10-K, in Note 20 to Union Planters' consolidated financial statements, on page 67 of the 2000 Annual Report, and Note 12 to Union Planters unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein under Item 1 of Part I.
