PART I


Item 1. Business

General

Univest Corporation of Pennsylvania ("Univest") is a Pennsylvania
corporation organized in 1973 and registered as a bank holding company
pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. It owns all of the capital
stock of Union National Bank and Trust Company ("Union National Bank"),
Pennview Savings Bank, Univest Realty Corporation, Univest Leasing
Corporation, Univest Mortgage Company, Univest Financial Planning
Corporation, Univest Insurance Company, and Univest Electronic Services
Corporation.

Union National Bank is engaged in the general commercial banking
business and provides a full range of banking services and trust services to
its customers. Pennview Savings Bank is engaged in attracting deposits from
general public and investing such deposits primarily in loans secured by
residential properties, consumer loans, and to a lesser extent, loans secured
by commercial real estate and in commercial business loans. The Realty
Corporation was established to obtain, hold and operate properties for the
holding company and its subsidiaries. Both the Leasing Corporation and
Univest Mortgage Company are inactive. Univest Insurance Company offers
credit-related reinsurance plans. Univest Electronic Services Corporation
was established to provide data processing services to Union National Bank in
Souderton and other subsidiaries of Univest Corporation of Pennsylvania.

Union National Bank and Trust Company, with its head office in
Souderton, Montgomery County, serves the area through twenty (20) banking
offices, two off-premises automated teller machines and offices located in
ten retirement homes. Thirteen banking offices are in Montgomery County and
seven banking offices are in Bucks County. One off-premises automated teller
machine is located in Bucks County and the other is located in Montgomery
County.

Pennview Savings Bank conducts operations through five full-service
offices located in Souderton, Hatfield, Franconia, Silverdale and
Montgomeryville, Pennsylvania and offices located in two retirement homes.

As of January 31, 1996, Univest and its subsidiaries employed four
hundred and twenty-two (422) persons.


Competition

Univest's service areas are characterized by intense competition for
banking business among commercial banks, savings and loan associations,
mutual savings banks and other financial institutions. Each of the
Corporation's subsidiary banks actively compete with such banks and financial
institutions for local retail and commercial accounts. Union National Bank
and Pennview Savings Bank are also subject to competition from other local
banks and financial institutions in Bucks and Montgomery Counties, as well as
other financial institutions outside their primary service area.

In competing with other banks, savings and loan associations, and other
financial institutions, Union National Bank and Pennview Saving Bank seek to
provide personalized services through management's knowledge and awareness of
their service area, customers and borrowers.

Management believes this knowledge and awareness provides a business
advantage in serving the retail depositors and the small and mid-sized
commercial borrowers that comprise Union National Bank's and Pennview Savings
Bank's customer base.

Other competitors, including credit unions, consumer finance companies,
insurance companies and mutual funds, compete with certain lending and
deposit gathering services offered by Union National Bank and Pennview
Savings Bank.

Supervision and Regulation

Union National Bank is subject to supervision and is regularly examined
by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Also, Union National Bank
is subject to examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and by
the Federal Reserve System. Pennview Savings Bank is regulated by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and by the Pennsylvania Department of
Banking.

Univest is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of
1956, as amended, and is registered pursuant to its provisions. The Act
prohibits the acquisition by a bank holding company of a direct or indirect
ownership of more than five percent of the voting shares of any bank within
the United States without prior approval of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System, and also prohibits the granting of such approval in
respect to any bank within the United States located outside of the state
where the bank holding company's principal operations are conducted, unless
the acquisition is specifically authorized by the statutes of the state in
which the bank is located. With certain exceptions, a bank holding company
is prohibited from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more
than five percent of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank,
and from engaging directly or indirectly in businesses unrelated to the
business of banking, or managing, or controlling banks. Under the Bank
Holding Company Act Amendments of 1970, which became effective on December 3,
1970, the Federal Reserve Board may approve the acquisition by bank holding
companies of non bank subsidiaries to engage in activities that are closely
related to banking and are in the public interest. The amendments include a
provision which prohibits banks, bank holding companies and subsidiaries from
engaging in tie-in arrangements. Bank tie-ins involving a loan, discount,
deposit, or trust service are specifically exempted, and the Federal Reserve
Board is authorized to make exceptions by regulations.

As a bank holding company, Univest is subject to the reporting
requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and
Univest, together with its subsidiaries, is subject to examination by the
Board. The Federal Reserve Act limits the amount of credit which a member
bank may extend to its affiliates, and the amount of its funds which it may
invest in or lend on the collateral of the securities of its affiliates.
Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, insured banks are subject to the
same limitations.


FDICIA

In December 1991, FDICIA was enacted, which substantially revised the
bank regulatory and funding provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act
and made revisions to several other federal banking statutes.

Among other things, FDICIA requires the federal banking agencies to take
"prompt corrective action" in respect of depository institutions that do not
meet minimum capital requirements in order to minimize losses to the FDIC.
FDICIA establishes five capital tiers: "well capitalized", "adequately
capitalized", "undercapitalized", "significantly undercapitalized" and
"critically undercapitalized" and imposes significant restrictions on the
operations of a bank that is not at least adequately capitalized. A
depository institution's capital tier will depend upon where its capital
levels are in relation to various relevant capital measures, which will
include a risk-based capital measure, a leverage ratio capital measure and
certain other factors. Under the requirements, Univest has Tier I capital
ratios of 13.8% and 12.7%, and total risk-based capital ratio of 15.0% and
14.3% at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. These ratios place
Univest in the "well-capitalized" category under regulatory standards.

Regulations promulgated under FDICIA also require that an institution
monitor its capital levels closely and notify its appropriate federal banking
regulators within 15 days of any material events that affect the capital
position of the institution.

FDICIA directs that each federal banking agency prescribe standards for
depository institutions and depository institution holding companies relating
to internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan
documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, a
maximum ratio of classified assets to capital, minimum earnings sufficient to
absorb losses, a minimum ratio of market value to book value for publicly
traded shares (if feasible) and such other standards as the agency deems
appropriate.

FDICIA also contains a variety of other provisions that affect the
operations of the Corporation, including new reporting requirements,
regulatory standards for real estate lending, "truth in savings" provisions,
certain restrictions on investments and activities of state-chartered insured
banks and their subsidiaries and limitations on credit exposure between
banks.

Finally, FDICIA limits the discretion of the FDIC with respect to
deposit insurance coverage by requiring that, except in very limited
circumstances, the FDIC's course of action in resolving a problem bank must
constitute the "least costly resolution" for the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF")
or the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), as the case may be. The
FDIC has interpreted this standard as requiring it not to protect deposits
exceeding the $100,000 insurance limit in more situations than was previously
the case. In addition, FDICIA prohibits payments by the FDIC on uninsured
deposits in foreign branches of U.S. banks and will severely limit the "too
big to fail" doctrine under which the FDIC formerly protected deposits
exceeding the $100,000 insurance limit in certain failed banking
institutions.

Implementation of FDICIA has not had a material impact on the business
or operations of the Corporation.


SAIF Legislation

Spurred by pressures of the budget reconciliation process, both the
House and Senate Banking Committees approved separate bills during the
week of September 18, 1995 that include, among other items, a special one-
time assessment to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund
(SAIF) of which Pennview Savings Bank is a member. The one-time
assessment of 85 basis points of insured deposits as of March 31, 1995 is
intended to recapitalize the SAIF to the required 1.25% of insured
deposits and could be payable in early 1996. Should the bill pass in its
present form, the Corporation would be required to make a one-time pretax
charge to earnings of approximately $1.1 million. Succeeding deposit
premiums beginning in 1996 may be reduced from the current level of 23
basis points to 4.5 basis points which will benefit the Corporation in
future periods.



Credit and Monetary Policies

Union National Bank is affected by the fiscal and monetary policies of
the federal government and its agencies, including the Federal Reserve
System. An important function of the policies is to curb inflation and
control recessions through control of the supply of money and credit. The
Federal Reserve System uses its powers to regulate reserve requirements of
member banks, the discount rate on member-bank borrowings, interest rates on
time and savings deposits of member banks, and to conduct open-market
operations in United States Government securities to exercise control over
the supply of money and credit. The policies have a direct effect on the
amount of bank loans and deposits and on the interest rates charged on loans
and paid on deposits, with the result that the policies have a material
effect on bank earnings. Future policies of the Federal Reserve Bank System
and other authorities cannot be predicted, nor can their effect on future
bank earnings be predicted.

Pennview Savings Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System
which consists of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks, with each subject to
supervision and regulation by the newly created Federal Housing Finance
Board. The Federal Home Loan Banks provide a central credit facility
primarily for member institutions. The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home
Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital
stock in that Federal Home Loan Bank in an amount equal to at least 1% of the
aggregate principal amount of its unpaid residential mortgage loans, home
purchase contracts and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or
5% of its advances (borrowings) from the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Pittsburgh, whichever is greater.


Interstate Banking

Legislation was passed, and signed by President Clinton on September 29,
1994, which will eliminate many currently existing restrictions on interstate
banking. The legislation will authorize interstate acquisition of banks by
bank holding companies without geographic limitations one year after
enactment. Beginning June 1, 1997, the legislation will allow interstate
branching in states that have not passed legislation prohibiting interstate
branching, except that de novo branching or acquisition of a branch in
another state without acquisition of the entire bank will only be permitted
if expressly permitted by the law of the state in which such branch would be
located. Interstate branching prior to June 1, 1997 will be possible in
states that pass laws affirmatively authorizing such interstate branching.
The effect of this legislation on Univest cannot be predicted at this time.


Statistical Disclosure

Univest was incorporated under Pennsylvania law in 1973 for the purpose
of acquiring the stock of Union National Bank and subsequently to engage in
other business activities permitted under the Bank Holding Company Act. On
September 28, 1973, pursuant to an exchange offer, Univest acquired the
outstanding stock of Union National Bank. The following financial data
appearing on pages 6 through 17 reflects consolidated information. Where
averages are reported, daily information has been used for all subsidiaries.

TABLE III. LOAN PORTFOLIO, PART C. RISK ELEMENTS
(Thousands of Dollars)


Nonaccrual, Past-Due and Restructured Loans and Other Assets

Performance of the entire loan portfolio is reviewed on a regular basis
by bank management and loan officers. A number of factors regarding the
borrower, such as overall financial strength, collateral values, and
repayment ability, are considered in deciding on what actions should be taken
when determining the collectibility of interest for accrual purposes.

Potential Problem Loans
When collectibility of interest and/or principal on a
particular loan is questionable, the loan is placed on nonaccrual status.
If, at the time a decision is made to cease accruing interest, it is
determined that the collection of perviously accrued but unpaid interest is
uncertain, unpaid interest is charged against current income. Conversly, if
a loan on nonaccrual status is paid in full, including interest, a credit is
made to current income. The $6,207 of nonaccruing and restructured loans in
1995 includes $885 which are in accordance with contractual terms. If
nonaccrual loans had performed in accordance with their contractual terms,
additional interest income of $530 would have been recorded in 1995.
Interest income of $43 was recognized on these loans. It should be noted
that loans classified as substandard could move into nonaccrual status if the
economy continues to slow. It is not possible to estimate a dollar figure
that would be added to this problem loan category.

Loan Concentrations
At December 31, 1995, there were no concentrations of loans exceeding
10% of total loans other than disclosed in Table III, Part A.

Other Assets
At December 31, 1995, $735 in Other Real Estate Owned was classified as
nonperforming. This amount represents all the Other Real Estate Owned. At
December 31, 1994 the Corporation had $1,750 in Other Real Estate Owned.

TABLE IV. SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE
(Thousands of Dollars)


The loan loss reserve is established at a level which
management believes is adequate to absorb potential loan losses on the
current portfolio. Loans which are currently performing that may pose
collectibility problems in the future are considered in the determination of
the loan loss reserve as described in Table IV. For financial reporting
purposes, the provision for loan losses charged to operating expenses is
based upon several factors, including:

1. A continuing review by management and the Bank's Loan Review
Committee of the loan portfolio. Loans are reviewed on a
individual basis with special attention give to those loans
which are believed to possess the possibility of loss exposure,
with regard to either principal or interest.

2. The analysis of historical loan loss experience in relation to
various types of outstanding loans, particularly in the consumer
loan portfolio.

3. Requirements of the Federal Regulatory examinations, at which time
certain loans are required to be charged against reserve for loan
losses.

If, after applying these factors, it is management's opinion that
reserves must be increased, additional amounts are provided through a charge
to operating expenses.

As the accompanying table indicates, the amount of loan loss provision
charged to expense for 1995 was $1,895 compared to $1,950 in 1994 and $2,480
in 1993.
