PART I
--------
ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
SUN BANCORP, INC. (SUN) is a holding company incorporated under the laws of
Pennsylvania and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as
amended, on November 26, 1982. SUN acquired the Snyder County Trust Company
in June 1983 and The Watsontown National Bank in November 1987. On December
1, 1993, the two banks merged into one bank under the legal title of Sun Bank
(Bank). The banks continue to do business as Snyder County Trust Company,
Incorporated as Sun Bank and Watsontown Bank, Incorporated as Sun Bank. SUN
also owns the Pennsylvania SUN Life Insurance Company, a credit life and
disability insurance company formed in 1993. SUN is a limited partner in two
partnerships for the purpose of building, owning and operating an affordable
elderly apartment complex in SUN's market area. As part of the agreement, SUN
is able to recognize tax credits from this economic development project. On
June 30, 1997, SUN acquired Bucktail Bank and Trust Company (Bucktail) from
FNB Corporation. Concurrently, Bucktail was merged into Sun Bank. Five
branches of Bucktail located in Lycoming County were renamed and doing business
under the name Central Pennsylvania Bank, Incorporated as Sun Bank. The
remaining branches in Elk and Cameron Counties continue under the name Bucktail
Bank and Trust Company, Incorporated as Sun Bank.
Sun Bank, a state-chartered bank regulated by Pennsylvania Banking Law,
provides full service commercial and retail banking services primarily in
central Pennsylvania. Sun Bank operates fourteen banking offices and one
trust services office serving Snyder, Union, Northumberland, Lycoming, Cameron
and Elk Counties. At December 31, 1997, Sun Bank had total assets of
$506,901,000 and total shareholders' equity of $61,985,000. Net income for
1997 was $7,577,000.
The Bank offers a wide range of services including demand deposit accounts,
savings accounts, Christmas and all-purpose clubs, time certificates of deposit,
and individual retirement accounts, as well as commercial loans, consumer loans,
mortgage loans, and safe deposit services. The Bank also operates a trust
department that provides full fiduciary services. Also, nineteen Automated
Teller Machines (ATMs) and cash dispensing units throughout the service area
provide 24-hour banking service. Sun Bank's activities are such that the loss
of one single customer or a few customers would not have a material adverse
effect on its operations. Additionally, the Bank's business is not seasonal in
nature and does not engage in foreign transactions. The majority of the loan
portfolio is comprised of residential real estate loans and consumer loans
(predominately automobiles). The Bank's deposits are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in the amount allowed by law.
The Pennsylvania SUN Life Insurance Company (SUN Life) provides credit life
and disability insurance to Sun Bank's credit customers. SUN Life is subject to
supervision and regulation by the Arizona Department of Insurance, the
Insurance Department of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank. At December 31, 1997, Pennsylvania SUN
Life had total assets of $672,000 and total shareholders' equity of $293,000.
Net income for 1997 was $9,000.
Competition continues to heighten in the financial services industry not only
among banks but with savings and loan associations, credit unions, discount
brokerage firms, insurance companies, and other nonbank financial service
providers. Changing regulatory and economic conditions affect SUN's ability to
compete effectively in its market area. Most of the competition is centered
around the setting of interest rates to be charged on loans and rates paid on
deposits, fees on deposit accounts and customer service. SUN's management feels
it competes effectively in its market area.
SUN is subject to regulation and supervision by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve Bank and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. SUN files
quarterly and annual reports with the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) of Philadelphia
and periodic on-site exams of SUN are done by the FRB. Regular examinations of
the Bank are conducted by the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking.
SUN and the Pennsylvania SUN Life Insurance Company do not have any employees.
At December 31, 1997, the Bank employed 213 persons. The Bank offers a variety
of benefit programs and feels its relationship with its employees is good.
ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES
SUN's corporate office is located in Sun Bank's main banking office. SUN owns
all of its properties with the exception of an off-site ATM, Item 8 listed

1995, SUN purchased parcels of land in Liverpool for the purpose of building a

Dam office located on Routes 11-15. Also, SUN completed the renovation and
relocation to our new Shamokin Dam branch (Item 2), which was purchased from
Swineford National Bank in 1996. On June 30, 1997, SUN completed its
acquisition of Bucktail Bank and Trust Company. This acquisition added eight
