History and Business
- ----------------------

Harleysville National Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the
Corporation), was incorporated in June 1982. On January 1, 1983, the
Corporation became the parent bank holding company of Harleysville National Bank
and Trust Company (HNB), established in 1909, a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Corporation. On February 13, 1991, the Corporation acquired all of the
outstanding common stock of Citizens National Bank (CNB), established in 1903.
On June 1, 1992, the Corporation acquired all of the outstanding stock of Summit
Hill Trust Company (Summit Hill). On September 25, 1992, Summit Hill merged
into CNB and is now operating as a branch office of CNB. On July 1, 1994 the
Corporation acquired all of the outstanding stock of Security National Bank
(SNB), established in 1988. On March 1, 1996, the Corporation acquired all of
the outstanding common stock of Farmers & Merchants Bank ("F & M"). F & M was
merged into CNB and is now operating as a branch office of CNB. On March 17,
1997, the HNC Financial Company was incorporated as a Delaware Corporation. HNC
Financial Company's principal business function is to expand the investment
opportunities of the Corporation. On January 20, 1999, the Corporation acquired
all of the outstanding stock of Northern Lehigh Bancorp, Inc., parent company of
Citizens National Bank of Slatington. Citizens National Bank of Slatington was
merged into CNB. On April 28, 2000, the Corporation acquired all of the
outstanding common stock of Citizens Bank and Trust Company (CB & T). CB & T
was merged into CNB. The Corporation is primarily a bank holding company that
provides financial services through its three bank subsidiaries. Since
commencing operations, the Corporation's business has consisted primarily of
managing HNB, CNB and SNB (collectively the Banks), and its principal source of
income has been dividends paid by the Banks. The Corporation is registered as a
bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956.

The Banks are national banking associations under the supervision of the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Corporation and HNB's legal
headquarters are located at 483 Main Street, Harleysville, Pennsylvania 19438.
CNB's legal headquarters is located at 13-15 West Ridge Street, Lansford,
Pennsylvania 18232. SNB's legal headquarters is located at One Security Plaza,
Pottstown, Pennsylvania 19464. HNC Financial Company's legal headquarters is
located at 300 Delaware Avenue, Suite 1704, Wilmington, Delaware 19801.

In addition to historical information, this Form 10-K contains
forward-looking statements. We have made forward-looking statements in this
document, and in documents that we incorporate by reference, that are subject to
risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include the information
concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of Harleysville
National Corporation and its subsidiaries. When we use words such as
"believes," "expects," "anticipates," or similar expressions, we are making
forward-looking statements.

Shareholders should note that many factors, some of which are discussed
elsewhere in this document and in the documents that we incorporate by
reference, could affect the future financial results of Harleysville National
Corporation and its subsidiaries and could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained or
incorporated by reference in this document. These factors include the
following:

*. . operating, legal and regulatory risks;

*. . economic, political and competitive forces affecting our banking,
*. . securities, asset management and credit services businesses; and

*. . the risk that our analyses of these risks and forces could be incorrect
*. . and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be
unsuccessful

As of December 31, 2000, the Corporation had total assets of
$1,935,213,000, total shareholders' equity of $173,536,000 and total deposits of
$1,489,050,000.

The Banks engage in the full-service commercial banking and trust
business, including accepting time and demand deposits, making secured and
unsecured commercial and consumer loans, financing commercial transactions,
making construction and mortgage loans and performing corporate pension and
personal investment and trust services. Their deposits are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the extent provided by law. The Banks
have 40 branch offices located in Montgomery, Bucks, Chester, Berks, Carbon,
Wayne, Monroe, Lehigh, Northampton and Schuylkill counties, Pennsylvania, 23 of
which are owned by the Banks and 17 of which are leased from third parties.

The Banks enjoy a stable base of core deposits and are a leading community
banks in their service areas. The Banks believe they have gained their position
as a result of a customer-oriented philosophy and a strong commitment to
service. Senior management has made the development of a sales orientation
throughout the Banks one of their highest priorities and emphasizes this
objective with extensive training and sales incentive programs. The Banks
maintain close contact with the local business community to monitor commercial
lending needs and believe they respond to customer requests quickly and with
flexibility. Management believes these competitive strengths are reflected in
the Corporation's results of operations.

As of December 31, 2000, the Corporation and the Banks employed
approximately 579 full-time equivalent employees. The Corporation provides a
variety of employment benefits and considers its relationships with its
employees to be satisfactory.

Competition
- -----------

The Banks compete actively with other eastern Pennsylvania financial
institutions, many larger than the Banks, as well as with financial and
non-financial institutions headquartered elsewhere. The Banks are generally
competitive with all competing institutions in their service areas with respect
to interest rates paid on time and savings deposits, service charges on deposit
accounts, interest rates charged on loans, and fees and charges for trust
services. At December 31, 2000, HNB's legal lending limit to a single customer
was $15,982,000 and CNB's and SNB's legal lending limits to a single customer
were $5,691,000 and $2,033,000, respectively. Many of the institutions with
which the Banks compete are able to lend significantly more than these amounts
to a single customer.

Supervision and Regulation - The Registrant
- ------------------------------------------------

In November, 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act of
1999 (Modernization Act) became law. The Modernization Act allows bank holding
companies meeting management, capital and Community Reinvestment Act standards
to engage in a substantially broader range of nonbanking activities than was
permissible before enactment, including underwriting insurance and making
merchant banking investments in commercial and financial companies. It allows
insurers and other financial services companies to acquire banks; removes
various restrictions that currently apply to bank holing company ownership of
securities firms and mutual fund advisory companies; and establishes the overall
regulatory structure applicable to bank holding companies that also engage in
insurance and securities operations. The Corporation currently believes it
meets the requirements for the broader range of activities that will be
permitted by the Modernization Act.

The Moderization Act also modifies current law related to financial
privacy and community reinvestment. The new privacy provisions will generally
prohibit financial institutions, including the Corporation, from disclosing
nonpublic financial information to nonaffiliated third parties unless customers
have the opportunity to "opt out" of the disclosure.

PAGE 5

Pending Legislation
- --------------------

Management is not aware of any other current specific recommendations by
regulatory authorities or proposed legislation which, if they were implemented,
would have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, capital resources, or
results of operations, although the general cost of compliance with numerous and
multiple federal and state laws and regulations does have, and in the future may
have, a negative impact on the Corporation's results of operations.

Effects of Inflation
- ----------------------

Inflation has some impact on the Corporation's and the Banks' operating
costs. Unlike many industrial companies, however, substantially all of the
Banks' assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest
rates have a more significant impact on the Corporation's and the Banks'
performance than the general level of inflation. Over short periods of time,
interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same
magnitude as prices of goods and services.

Effect of Government Monetary Policies
- ------------------------------------------

The earnings of the Corporation are and will be affected by domestic
economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States
government and its agencies. An important function of the Federal Reserve is to
regulate the money supply and interest rates. Among the instruments used to
implement those objectives are open market operations in United States
government securities and changes in reserve requirements against member bank
deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence
overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and
their use may also affect rates charged on loans or paid for deposits.

The Banks are members of the Federal Reserve and, therefore, the policies
and regulations of the Federal Reserve have a significant effect on its
deposits, loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned
and paid, and are expected to affect the Banks' operations in the future. The
effect of such policies and regulations upon the future business and earnings of
the Corporation and the Banks cannot be predicted.

Environmental Regulations
- --------------------------

There are several federal and state statutes which regulate the
obligations and liabilities of financial institutions pertaining to
environmental issues. In addition to the potential for attachment of liability
resulting from its own actions, a bank may be held liable under certain
circumstances for the actions of its borrowers, or third parties, when such
actions result in environmental problems on properties that collateralize loans
held by the bank. Further, the liability has the potential to far exceed the
original amount of a loan issued by the bank. Currently, neither the
Corporation nor the Banks are a party to any pending legal proceeding pursuant
to any environmental statute, nor are the Corporation and the Banks aware of any
circumstances that may give rise to liability under any such statute.

Supervision and Regulation - Banks
- --------------------------------------

The operations of the Banks are subject to federal and state statutes
applicable to banks chartered under the banking laws of the United States, to
members of the Federal Reserve and to banks whose deposits are insured by the
FDIC. The Banks' operations are also subject to regulations of the OCC, the
Federal Reserve and the FDIC. The primary supervisory authority of the Banks is
the OCC, who regularly examines the Banks. The OCC has authority to prevent a
national bank from engaging in unsafe or unsound practices in conducting its
business.

Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern, among other
things, the scope of a bank's business, the investments a bank may make, the
reserves against deposits a bank must maintain, loans a bank makes and
collateral it takes, the activities of a bank with respect to mergers and
consolidations and the establishment of branches.

PAGE 6

As a subsidiary bank of a bank holding company, the Banks are subject to
certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of
credit to the bank holding company or its subsidiaries, or investments in the
stock or other securities as collateral for loans. The Federal Reserve Act and
Federal Reserve regulations also place certain limitations and reporting
requirements on extensions of credit by a bank to principal shareholders of its
parent holding company, among others, and to related interests of such principal
shareholders. In addition, such legislation and regulations may affect the terms
upon which any person becoming a principal shareholder of a holding company may
obtain credit from banks with which the subsidiary bank maintains a
correspondent relationship.

Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the OCC possesses the power to
prohibit institutions regulated by it (such as the Banks) from engaging in any
activity that would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or would otherwise
be in violation of the law.

Under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977, the OCC is required to
assess the record of all financial institutions regulated by it to determine if
these institutions are meeting the credit needs of the community, including low
and moderate income neighborhoods, which they serve and to take this record into
account in its evaluation of any application made by any of such institutions
for, among other things, approval of a branch or other deposit facility, office
relocation, a merger or an acquisition of bank shares. The Financial
Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 amended the CRA to
require, among other things, that the OCC make publicly available the evaluation
of a bank's record of meeting the credit needs of its entire community,
including low and moderate income neighborhoods. This evaluation will include a
descriptive rating like "outstanding", "satisfactory", "needs to improve" or
"substantial noncompliance" and a statement describing the basis for the rating.
These ratings are publicly disclosed.

Under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks and other financial institutions are
required to report to the Internal Revenue Service currency transactions of more
than $10,000 or multiple transactions of which a bank is aware in any one day
that aggregate in excess of $10,000. Civil and criminal penalties are provided
under the Bank Secrecy Act for failure to file a required report, for failure to
supply information required by the Bank Secrecy Act or for filing a false or
fraudulent report.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991
requires that institutions must be classified, based on their risk-based capital
ratios into one of five defined categories, as illustrated below, well
capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized.

Total Tier 1 Under a
Risk Risk Tier 1 Capital
Based Based Leverage Order or
Ratio Ratio Ratio Directive
----- ------ -------- ---------
CAPITAL CATEGORY
- ------------------------------
Well capitalized . . . . . . . >10.0 >6.0 >5.0 NO
- - -
Adequately capitalized . . . . > 8.0 >4.0 >4.0*
- - -
Undercapitalized . . . . . . . Under 8.0 Under 4.0 Under 4.0*
Significantly undercapitalized Under 6.0 Under 3.0 Under 3.0
Critically undercapitalized. . Under 2.0

*3.0 for those banks having the highest available regulatory rating.

In the event an institution's capital deteriorates to the undercapitalized
category or below, FDICIA prescribes an increasing amount of regulatory
intervention, including: the institution of a capital restoration plan and a
guarantee of the plan by a parent institution; and the placement of a hold on
increases in assets, number of branches or lines of business. If capital has
reached the significantly or critically undercapitalized levels, further
material restrictions can be imposed, including restrictions on interest payable
on accounts, dismissal of management and, in critically undercapitalized
situations, appointment of a receiver. For well capitalized institutions,

PAGE 7

FDICIA provides authority for regulatory intervention where the institution is
deemed to be engaging in unsafe or unsound practices or receives a less than
satisfactory examination report rating for asset quality, management, earnings
or liquidity. All but well capitalized institutions are prohibited from
accepting brokered deposits without prior regulatory approval. Under FDICIA,
financial institutions are subject to increased regulatory scrutiny and must
comply with certain operational, managerial and compensation standards to be
developed by Federal Reserve Board regulations. FDICIA also requires the
regulators to issue new rules establishing certain minimum standards to which an
institution must adhere including standards requiring a minimum ratio of
classified assets to capital, minimum earnings necessary to absorb losses and
minimum ratio of market value to book value for publicly held institutions.
Additional regulations are required to be developed relating to internal
controls, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset
growth and excessive compensation, fees and benefits.

Annual full-scope, on site regulatory examinations are required for all
the FDIC-insured institutions except institutions with assets under $100 million
which are well capitalized, well-managed and not subject to a recent change in
control, in which case, the examination period is every 18 months. Banks with
total assets of $500 million or more, as of the beginning of fiscal year 1993,
are required to submit to their supervising federal and state banking agencies a
publicly available annual audit report. The independent accountants of such bank
are required to attest to the accuracy of management's report regarding the
internal control structure of the bank. In addition, such banks also are
required to have an independent audit committee composed of outside directors
who are independent of management, to review with management and the independent
accountants, the reports that must be submitted to the bank regulatory agencies.
If the independent accountants resign or are dismissed, written notification
must be given to the bank's supervising government banking agencies. These
accounting and reporting reforms do not apply to an institution such as a bank
with total assets at the beginning of its fiscal year of less than $500 million,
such as CNB or SNB.

FDICIA also requires that banking agencies reintroduce loan-to-value
ratio regulations which were previously repealed by the 1982 Act.
Loan-to-values limit the amount of money a financial institution may lend to a
borrower, when the loan is secured by real estate, to no more than a percentage,
set by regulation, of the value of the real estate.

A separate subtitle within FDICIA, called the "Bank Enterprise Act of
1991", requires "truth-in-savings" on consumer deposit accounts so that
consumers can make meaningful comparisons between the competing claims of banks
with regard to deposit accounts and products. Under this provision, a bank is
required to provide information to depositors concerning the terms of their
deposit accounts, and in particular, to disclose the annual percentage yield.
The operational cost of complying with the Truth-In-Savings law had no material
impact on liquidity, capital resources or reported results of operations.

While the overall impact of fully implementing all provisions of the
FDICIA cannot be accurately calculated, Management believes that full
implementation of the FDICIA had no material impact on liquidity, capital
resources or reported results of operation in future periods.

From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation have
been proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restriction on,
the business of the Banks. It cannot be predicted whether any such legislation
will be adopted or, if adopted, how such legislation would affect the business
of the Banks. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial
banking activities in the United States, the Banks' business is particularly
susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may
increase the costs of doing business.

Allowance for Credit Losses:

The Bank uses the reserve method of accounting for credit losses. The balance in
the allowance for loan and lease losses is determined based on management's
review and evaluation of the loan portfolio in relation to past loss experience,
the size and composition of the portfolio, current economic events and
conditions, and other pertinent factors, including management's assumptions as
to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses. Increases to the allowance for
loan and lease losses are made by charges to the provision for credit losses.
Credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance
for credit losses. Recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to
the allowance for credit losses.

While management considers the allowance for loan and lease losses to be
adequate based on information currently available, future additions to the
allowance may be necessary due to changes in economic conditions or management's
assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses and management's
intent with regard to the disposition of loans and leases. In addition, the OCC
as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's
allowance for loan losses. The OCC may require the Bank to recognize additions
to the allowance for credit losses based on their judgements about information
available to them at the time of their examination.

The Bank's allowance for loan and lease losses is the accumulation of various
components that are calculated based on various independent methodologies. All
components of the allowance for credit losses are an estimation. Management
bases its recognition and estimation of each allowance component on certain
observable data that it believes is the most reflective of the underlying credit
losses being estimated. The observable data and accompanying analysis is
directionally consistent, based upon trends, with the resulting component amount
for the allowance for loan and lease losses. The Bank's allowance for loan and
lease losses components include the following: historical loss estimation by
loan product type and by risk rating within each product type, payment (past
due) status, industry concentrations, internal and external variables such as
economic conditions, credit policy and underwriting changes, competence of the
loan review process and other historical loss model imprecision. The Bank's
historical loss component is the most significant component of the allowance for
loan and lease losses, and all other allowance components are based on the
inherent loss attributes that management believes exist within the total
portfolio that are not captured in the historical loss component.

The historical loss components of the allowance represents the results of
analyses of historical charge-offs and recoveries within pools of homogeneous
loans, within each risk rating and broken down further by segment, within the
portfolio.

The historical loss components of the allowance for commercial loans is based
principally on current risk ratings, historical loss rates adjusted, by
adjusting the risk window, to reflect current events and conditions, as well as
analyses of other factors that may have affected the collectibility of loans in
the commercial portfolio. The Bank analyzes all commercial loans that are being
monitored as potential credit problems, via Watchlist Memorandum, to determine
whether such loans are individually impaired, with impairment measured by
reference to the collateral coverage and / or debt service coverage. The
historical loss component of the allowance for consumer loans is based
principally on loan payment status, retail classification and historical loss
rates adjusted, by adjusting the risk window, to reflect current events and
conditions.

PAGE 12

The industry concentration component is recognized as a possible factor in the
estimation of credit losses. Two industries represent possible concentrations:
commercial real estate and automobile dealers. No specific loss-related
observable data is recognized by management currently, therefore no specific
factor is calculated in the reserve solely for the impact of these
concentrations, although management continues to carefully consider relevant
data for possible future sources of observable data.

The historic loss model imprecision component (soft factors and unallocated
portion) reflects management's belief that there are additional inherent credit
losses based on loss attributes not adequately captured in the statistical /
historical loss component and is an assessment of information delay and its
impact on the timeliness of the risk rating process and loss recognition. The
principal observable data utilized by management as the driver of the loss
recognition and measurement of this component is an internal management measure
of the age of financial information used in the borrower debt service analysis.
This is also a key judgmental component, as experiential data confirms that
measurable losses lag the empirical model as a downward credit cycle begins.

(1) The interest earned on nontaxable investment securities and loans is shown
on a tax equivalent basis.

Tax-equivalent net interest income was $71,881,000 for 2000, compared to
$69,189,000 for 1999, an increase of $2,692,000, or 3.9%. This increase in
tax-equivalent net interest income was primarily due to the net $5,312,000
increase related to volume, partially offset by a decrease related to interest
rates of $2,620,000. Total interest income increased $17,817,000, primarily the
result of higher volumes of loans and investment securities, and the higher
rates experienced during 2000. Tax-equivalent interest income on loans grew
15.4% and tax-equivalent investment interest income increased 14.4%. The 2000
average loan and investment volumes increased 13.2% and 9.2% respectively. The
Banks experienced growth throughout all major classifications of loan
portfolios. The increase in investment securities was due to the planned growth
related to the increase in deposit funding.

Total interest expense grew $15,125,000 during 2000 or 29.9%, compared to
1999. This growth was the result of increased volumes in all interest-bearing
liability categories and the funding cost related to BOLI. The average volumes
of savings deposits, time deposits and borrowings and other interest-bearing
liabilities grew 10.3%, 19.3% and 12.3%, respectively. Borrowings and other
interest-bearing liabilities include federal funds purchased, FHLB borrowings,
securities sold under agreements to repurchase and U.S. Treasury notes.

The 1999 tax-equivalent net interest income was $69,189,000, a $6,946,000
increase compared to $62,243,000 for 1998. This increase in tax-equivalent net
interest income was primarily due to the $8,259,000 increase related to volumes,
partially offset by the $1,313,000 decrease in net interest income related to
rates. The growth in earning asset volumes was in loans and investment
securities. The interest-bearing liabilities volume growth was due to increases
in all categories.
