GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS


Developments relating to individual aspects of the business of BOK Financial
Corporation ("BOK Financial") are described below. Additional discussion of BOK
Financial's activities during the current year is incorporated by reference to
"Management's Assessment of Operations and Financial Condition" (pages 10-24)
in BOK Financial's 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders. Information regarding
BOK Financial's acquisitions is incorporated by reference to Note 2 of "Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements" (page 34) in BOK Financial's 1998 Annual
Report to Shareholders.

NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

BOK Financial is a bank holding company whose activities are limited by the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("BHCA") to banking, certain
bank-related services and activities, and managing or controlling banks. BOK
Financial's banking and bank-related activities are primarily performed through
Bank of Oklahoma, N.A. ("BOk"), Bank of Texas, N.A., Bank of Albuquerque N.A.,
and Bank of Arkansas, N.A.. Other significant operating subsidiaries include
BOSC, Inc., which is a full-service securities firm with specialized expertise
in public and municipal finance, asset-backed securities and private placements,
and BOK Capital Services Corporation, which provides leasing and mezzanine
financing. Other nonbank subsidiary operations are not significant. As of
December 31, 1998, BOK Financial and its subsidiaries had 2,758 full-time
equivalent employees.

INDUSTRY SEGMENTS

BOK Financial operates four principal lines of business, corporate banking,
consumer banking, mortgage banking and trust services which in the aggregate
account for more than 75% of total revenue. Discussion of these principal lines
of business is incorporated by reference to Lines of Business in "Management's
Assessment of Operations and Financial Condition " (pages 13 - 14) and Note 17
of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" (pages 46 - 49) in BOK
Financial's 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders.

COMPETITION

The banking industry in each of our markets is highly competitive. BOK
Financial, through four subsidiary banks, competes with other banks in obtaining
deposits, making loans and providing additional services related to banking.

BOk is the largest banking subsidiary of BOK Financial. It has the number one
market share in Oklahoma and a leading market position in nine of the 11
Oklahoma counties in which it operates. BOk competes with two super-regional
banks and numerous locally owned banks in both metropolitan areas, as well as
several locally owned small community banks in every other community in which we
do business throughout the rest of the state.

BOK Financial competes in the Dallas-Ft. Worth combined metropolitan area, in
the Albuquerque, New Mexico market, and in Fayetteville, Arkansas through
subsidiary banks. Bank of Texas, N.A., competes against numerous financial
institutions, including some of the largest in the U.S. Bank of Texas's market
share is approximately 1%. After giving effect to pending acquisitions, Bank of
Texas's market share is expected to increase to approximately 2%. Bank of
Albuquerque, N.A., was formed in December, 1998 to acquire $465 million in
deposits in a forced divestiture associated with the NationsBank/Bank of America
merger. Bank of Albuquerque has a number four market share position in the City
of Albuquerque behind Bank of America and two other super-regional competitors,
followed by several locally-owned smaller community banks. Bank of Arkansas,
N.A., operates as a community bank serving Benton and Washington counties in
Arkansas. It currently has $87 million in deposits and a Loan portfolio of
approximately $96 million.

Additional legislation, judicial and administrative decisions also may affect
the ability of banks to compete with each other as well as with other
businesses. These statutes and decisions may tend to make the operations of
various financial institutions more similar and increase competition among banks
and other financial institutions or limit the ability of banks to compete with
other businesses. Management currently cannot predict whether and, if so, when
any such changes might occur or the impact any such changes would have upon the
income or operations of BOK Financial or its subsidiaries, or upon the regional
banking environment in our markets.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

Bank holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both federal
and state law. The following information, to the extent it describes statutory
or regulatory provisions, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
particular statutory and regulatory provisions. It is not possible to predict
the changes, if any, that may be made to existing banking laws and regulations
or whether such changes, if made, would have a materially adverse effect on the
business and prospects of BOK Financial, BOk, Bank of Texas, Bank of
Albuquerque, or Bank of Arkansas.

BOK FINANCIAL

As a bank holding company, BOK Financial is subject to regulation under the BHCA
and to supervision by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the
"Reserve Board"). Under the BHCA, BOK Financial files with the Reserve Board an
annual report and such other additional information as the Reserve Board may
require. The Reserve Board may also make examinations of BOK Financial and its
subsidiaries.

The BHCA requires the prior approval of the Reserve Board in any case where a
bank holding company proposes to acquire control of more than five percent of
the voting shares of any bank, unless it already controls a majority of such
voting shares. Additionally, approval must also be obtained before a bank
holding company may acquire all or substantially all of the assets of another
bank or before it may merge or consolidate with another bank holding company.
The BHCA further provides that the Reserve Board shall not approve any such
acquisition, merger or consolidation that will substantially lessen competition,
tend to create a monopoly or be in restraint of trade, unless it finds the
anti-competitive effects of the proposed transaction are clearly outweighed in
the public interest by the probable effect of the transaction in meeting the
convenience and needs of the community to be served.

The BHCA also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from
acquiring more than five percent of the voting shares of any company that is not
a bank and from engaging in any business other than banking or managing or
controlling banks. Under the BHCA, the Reserve Board is authorized to approve
the ownership of shares by a bank holding company in any company whose
activities the Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking
or to managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In
making such determinations, the Reserve Board weighs the Community Reinvestment
Act activities of the bank holding company and the expected benefit to the
public, such as greater convenience, increased competition or gains in
efficiency, against the possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of
resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interest or unsound
banking practices. The Reserve Board has by regulation determined that certain
activities are closely related to banking within the meaning of the BHCA. These
activities include operating a mortgage company, finance company, credit card
company or factoring company; performing certain data processing operations;
servicing loans and other extensions of credit; providing investment and
financial advice; acting as an insurance agent for certain types of
credit-related insurance; owning and operating savings and loan associations;
and leasing personal property on a full pay-out, nonoperating basis.

A bank holding company and its subsidiaries are further prohibited under the
BHCA from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with the
provision of any credit, property or services. Thus, a subsidiary of a bank
holding company may not extend credit, lease or sell property, furnish any
services or fix or vary the consideration for these activities on the condition
that (1) the customer obtain or provide some additional credit, property or
services from or to the bank holding company or any subsidiary thereof or (2)
the customer may not obtain some other credit, property or services from a
competitor, except to the extent reasonable conditions are imposed to insure the
soundness of credit extended.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 established
five capital rating tiers ranging from "well capitalized" to "critically
undercapitalized". A financial institution is considered to be well capitalized
if its Leverage, Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios are at 5%, 6% and 10%,
respectively. Any institution experiencing significant growth or acquiring other
institutions or branches is expected to maintain capital ratios above the well
capitalized level. At December 31, 1998, BOK Financial's Leverage, Tier 1 and
Total Capital ratios were 6.57%, 7.80% and 11.96%, respectively.

BANK SUBSIDIARIES

BOk, Bank of Texas, Bank of Albuquerque, and Bank of Arkansas are national
banking associations and are subject to the National Banking Act and other
federal statutes governing national banks. Under federal law, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency ("Comptroller") charters, regulates and serves as
the primary regulator of national banks. In addition, the Comptroller must
approve certain corporate or structural changes, including an increase or
decrease in capitalization, payment of dividends, change of place of business,
establishment of a branch and establishment of an operating subsidiary. The
Comptroller performs its functions through national bank examiners who provide
the Comptroller with information concerning the soundness of a national bank,
the quality of management and directors, and compliance with applicable laws,
rules and regulations. The National Banking Act authorizes the Comptroller to
examine every national bank as often as necessary. Although the Comptroller has
primary supervisory responsibility for national banks, such banks must also
comply with Reserve Board rules and regulations as members of the Federal
Reserve System.

Bank of Arkansas is also subject to certain consumer-protection laws
incorporated in the Arkansas Constitution, which, among other restrictions,
limit the maximum interest rate on general loans to five percent above the
Federal Reserve Discount Rate. The rate on consumer loans is five percent above
the discount rate or seventeen percent, whichever is lower.

BOk, Bank of Texas, Bank of Albuquerque, and Bank of Arkansas are insured by the
FDIC and are required to pay certain fees and premiums to the Bank Insurance
Fund ("BIF"). The BIF has implemented a risk-related insurance system for
determining premiums to be paid by a bank. Each bank is placed in one of nine
risk categories based on its level of capital and supervisory rating with the
well-capitalized banks with the highest supervisory rating paying a premium of
0.00% of deposits and the critically undercapitalized banks paying up to 0.27%
of deposits. Also, approximately 17% of BOK Financial's total deposits at
December 31, 1998 were acquired through Oakar transactions and are insured
through the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). The Deposit Insurance
Funds Act of 1996 was enacted on September 30, 1996, which recapitalized the
SAIF and implemented a risk-related insurance system identical to the BIF system
discussed above. In addition, the Deposit Insurance


4

5

Fund Act of 1996 implemented an additional assessment on BIF and SAIF deposits,
the Financing Corporation ("FICO") Quarterly Payment, which is not tied to the
BIF risk classification. The FICO BIF annual rate at December 31, 1998 was 1.22
basis points and the FICO SAIF annual rate was 6.10 basis points.

Applicable federal statutes and regulations require national banks to meet
certain leverage and risk-based capital requirements. At December 31, 1998,
BOk's, Bank of Texas's, Bank of Albuquerque's and Bank of Arkansas's leverage
and risk-based capital ratios were well above the required minimum ratios.
Additional discussion regarding regulatory capital is incorporated by reference
to Note 15 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" (page 45) in BOK
Financial's 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders.

GOVERNMENTAL POLICIES AND ECONOMIC FACTORS

The operations of BOK Financial and its subsidiaries are affected by legislative
changes and by the policies of various regulatory authorities and, in
particular, the credit policies of the Reserve Board. An important function of
the Reserve Board is to regulate the national supply of bank credit. Among the
instruments of monetary policy used by the Reserve Board to implement its
objectives are: open market operations in U.S. Government securities; changes in
the discount rate on bank borrowings; and changes in reserve requirements on
bank deposits. The effect of such policies in the future on the business and
earnings of BOK Financial and its subsidiaries cannot be predicted with
certainty.

FOREIGN OPERATIONS

BOK Financial does not engage in operations in foreign countries, nor does it
lend to foreign governments.


ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES

BOK Financial, through BOk, BOk's subsidiaries, Bank of Texas, Bank of
Albuquerque and Bank of Arkansas, owns improved real estate that was carried at
$44 million, net of depreciation and amortization, as of December 31, 1998. BOK
Financial conducts its operations through 62 banking and 4 nonbanking locations
in Oklahoma, 5 banking and 2 nonbanking locations in Texas, 17 banking locations
in New Mexico, and 4 banking and 2 nonbanking locations in Arkansas as of
December 31, 1998. BOk's facilities are suitable for their respective uses and
present needs.
