ORGANIZATION
Fifth Third Bancorp (the "Registrant") is an Ohio corporation organized in 1975
as a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956,
as amended (the "Act"), and subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board
("FRB"). The Registrant, with its principal office located in Cincinnati, is a
multi-bank holding company as defined in the Act and is registered as such with
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and at December 31, 1999
had 18 wholly-owned subsidiaries: Fifth Third Bank; Fifth Third Bank, Central
Ohio; Fifth Third Bank, Northwestern Ohio, N.A.; Fifth Third Bank, Ohio Valley;
Fifth Third Bank, Western Ohio; Fifth Third Bank, Florida; Fifth Third Bank,
Northern Kentucky, Inc.; Fifth Third Bank, Kentucky, Inc.; Fifth Third Bank,
Indiana; Fifth Third Bank, Southwest, F.S.B.; Civitas Bank; Fifth Third
Community Development Company; CNB Capital Trust I; Fifth Third Investment
Company; Calvin Hotel Co.; Fifth Third Securities; State Savings Mortgage
Company and Heartland Capital Management, Inc. On March 17, 2000, Fifth Third
Bank, Indiana merged into Civitas Bank and Civitas Bank simultaneously changed
its name to Fifth Third Bank, Indiana.
At December 31, 1999, the Registrant, its affiliated banks and other
subsidiaries, had consolidated total assets of $41.6 billion, consolidated total
deposits of $26.1 billion and consolidated total shareholders' equity of $4.1
billion.
The Registrant, through its subsidiaries, engages primarily in commercial,
retail and trust banking, data processing services, investment advisory services
and leasing activities. In addition, the Registrant provides credit life,
accident, health and mortgage insurance, discount brokerage services and
property management for its properties. Each of the banking affiliates has
deposit insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC")
through the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") and the Savings Association Insurance
Fund ("SAIF"). Significant subsidiaries of the Registrant's affiliate banks
consist of The Fifth Third Company; The Fifth Third Leasing Company; Midwest
Payment Systems, Inc. ("MPS"); Fifth Third International Company; Fifth Third
Real Estate Capital Markets Co.; Fifth Third Mortgage Company; Fifth Third Real
Estate Investment Trust, Inc.; Fifth Third Insurance Reinsurance Company; and
Fifth Third Insurance Agency. The Registrant's subsidiaries provide a full range
of financial products and services to the retail, commercial, financial,
governmental, educational and medical sectors, including a wide variety of
checking, savings and money market accounts, and credit products such as credit
cards, installment loans, mortgage loans and leasing.
The Registrant, through its MPS subsidiary, operates for itself and other
financial institutions a proprietary automated teller machine ("ATM") network,
Jeanie(R). The Jeanie(R) system participates in several regional shared ATM
networks including "Money Station(R)," "Pulse(R)" and "Star(R)". These networks
include approximately 6,500, 42,000 and 70,000 ATMs, respectively. The "Money
Station(R)" network, in which the Registrant has a 20% ownership, participates
in another shared ATM network called "PLUS System(R)," which is a nationwide
network with over 490,000 participating ATM's. MPS also provides electronic fund
transfers,

Additional information regarding the Registrant's businesses is included in the
Management Editorial (pages 4 -12) in the Registrant's 1999 Annual Report to
Shareholders and is incorporated herein by reference and attached to this filing
as Exhibit 13.
ACQUISITIONS
The Registrant is the result of mergers and acquisitions over the years
involving financial institutions throughout Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan,
Illinois, Arizona and Florida. The Registrant's strategy for growth includes
strengthening its presence in core markets, expanding into contiguous markets
and broadening its product offerings. Consistent with this strategy the
Registrant completed the following acquisitions during 1999:
On November 19, 1999, the Registrant acquired Peoples Bank Corporation of
Indianapolis ("Peoples") and its subsidiary, Peoples Bank & Trust Company with
total assets of $675 million and total deposits of $587 million. The Registrant
exchanged 3,381,220 shares of Fifth Third common stock for each outstanding
share of Peoples.
On October 29, 1999, the Registrant acquired CNB Bancshares, Inc. ("CNB") a bank
holding company based in Evansville, Indiana which owns Civitas Bank, with total
assets of $7.9 billion and total deposits of $4.9 billion. The Registrant
exchanged 30,370,745 shares of Fifth Third common stock for each outstanding
share of CNB.
On August 6, 1999, the Registrant acquired Emerald Financial Corp., ("Emerald")
a unitary savings and loan holding company based in Strongsville, Ohio with
total assets of $677 million and total deposits of $562 million. The Registrant
exchanged 3,379,539 shares of Fifth Third common stock for each outstanding
share of Emerald.

ACQUISITIONS
In addition, to the above mentioned acquisitions, the Registrant acquired
Vanguard Financial Co., based in Cincinnati, Ohio; Enterprise Federal Bancorp,
Inc. based in West Chester, Ohio; South Florida Bank Holding Corporation, based
in Ft Myers, Florida; and Ashland Bankshares, Inc., based in Ashland, Kentucky.
Information, with respect to acquisitions is included in Note 18 (pages 25-26)
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Registrant's 1999
Annual Report to Shareholders, and is incorporated herein by reference and
attached to this filing as Exhibit 13.
COMPETITION
There are hundreds of commercial banks, savings and loans and other financial
service providers in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Arizona,
Florida and nationally, which provide strong competition to the Registrant's
banking subsidiaries. The Registrant competes for deposits; loans and other
banking services in its principal geographic markets as well as in selected
national markets as opportunities arise. In addition to the challenge of
attracting and retaining customers for traditional banking services, the
Registrant's competitors now include securities dealers, brokers, mortgage
bankers, investment advisors and insurance companies who seek to offer one-stop
financial services to their customers which include services that traditional
banks have not been able or allowed to offer their customers in the past.
Moreover, under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act"), effective March 11, 2000, securities firms, insurance companies and other
financial services providers that elect to become financial holding companies
may acquire banks and other financial institutions. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
may significantly change the competitive environment in which the Registrant
conducts business. See "Regulation and Supervision" below. The increasingly
competitive environment is a result primarily of changes in regulation, changes
in technology, product delivery systems and the accelerating pace of
consolidation among financial service providers. These competitors with focused
products targeted at highly profitable customer segments, compete across
geographic boundaries and provide customers increasing access to meaningful
alternatives to banking services in nearly all-significant products. These
competitive trends are likely to continue. The Registrant's ability to maintain
its history of strong financial performance and return on investment to
shareholders will depend in part on the Registrant's ability to expand its scope
of available financial services as needed to meet the needs and demands of its
customers. With respect to data processing services, the Bank's data processing
subsidiary, MPS, competes with other electronic fund transfer (EFT) service
providers such as Concord EFS, Inc., Deluxe Corporation and Electronic Data
Systems and other merchant processing providers such as First Data Corporation,
National Processing, Inc. and First USA Paymentech, Inc.

REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
The earnings of the Registrant are affected by general economic conditions as
well as by the monetary policies of the FRB. Such policies, which include
regulating the national supply of bank reserves and bank credit, can have a
major effect upon the source and cost of funds and the rates of return earned on
loans and investments. The Federal Reserve System exerts a substantial influence
on interest rates and credit conditions, primarily through open market
operations in U.S. Government securities, varying the discount rate on member
bank borrowings and setting cash reserve requirements against deposits. Changes
in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, will influence the
origination of loans, the purchase of investments, the generation of deposits
and rates received on loans and investment securities and paid on deposits.
Fluctuations in the Federal Reserve monetary policies have had a significant
effect on the operating results of financial institutions in the past and are
expected to continue to do so in the future.
The Registrant, as a bank holding company, is subject to the restrictions of the
Act. The Act provides that the acquisition of control of a bank is subject to
the prior approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The
Registrant is required to obtain the prior approval of the FRB before acquiring
control of more than 5 percent of the voting shares of another bank. The Act
does not permit the FRB to approve an acquisition by the Registrant, or any of
its subsidiaries, of any bank located in a state other than Ohio, unless the
acquisition is specifically authorized by the law of the state in which such
bank is located.
On September 29, 1994, the Act was amended by The Interstate Banking and Branch
Efficiency Act of 1994 which authorizes interstate bank acquisitions anywhere in
the country effective one year after the date of enactment, and interstate
branching by acquisition and consolidation effective June 1, 1997, in those
states that have not opted out by that date.
The Act limits the activities which may be engaged in by the Registrant and its
subsidiaries to ownership of banks and those activities which the FRB has deemed
or may in the future find to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper
incident thereto.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which became law on November 12, 1999, repeals
provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act: Section 20, which restricted the
affiliation of banks with firms "engaged principally" in specified securities
activities and Section 32, which restricts officer, director, or employee
interlocks between a bank and any company or person "primarily engaged" in
specified securities activities. Moreover, the general effect of the law is to
establish a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial
banks, insurance companies, securities firms and other financial service
providers by revising and expanding the
6
7
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
- -----------------------------
REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
Act framework to permit a holding company system, such as the Registrant, to
engage in a full range of financial activities through a new entity known as a
financial holding company. "Financial activities" are broadly defined to include
not only banking, insurance, and securities activities, but also merchant
banking and additional activities that the FBR, in consultation with the
Secretary of the Treasury, determines to be financial in nature. These
activities are incidental to such financial activities or complementary
activities that do not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of
depository institutions or the financial system in general. In sum, the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act is intended to permit bank holding companies that qualify
and elect to be treated as a financial holding company to engage in a
significantly broader range of activities described above that are not so
treated.
In order to elect to become a financial holding company and engage in the new
activities, a bank holding company must meet certain tests and file an election
form with the FRB, which generally is acted on within thirty days. To qualify,
all of a bank holding company's subsidiary banks must be well-capitalized and
well-managed, as measured by regulatory guidelines. In addition, to engage in
the new activities each of the bank holding company's banks must have been rated
"satisfactory" or better in its most recent Federal Community Reinvestment Act
evaluation. Furthermore a bank holding company that elects to be treated as a
financial holding company may face significant consequences. If its banks fail
to maintain the required capital and management ratings including entering into
an agreement with the FRB which imposes limitations on its operations and may
even require divestitures. Such possible ramifications may limit the ability of
a bank subsidiary to significantly expand or acquire less than well-capitalized
and well-managed institutions. The Registrant elected to become a financial
holding company.
The Registrant's subsidiary state banks are primarily subject to the laws of the
state in which each is located, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System and the FDIC. The Registrant's national bank is subject to regulation by
the Comptroller of the Currency and the FDIC. The Registrant's savings and loan
subsidiary is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision. The
Registrant is required to file reports of its operations with the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Office of Thrift Supervision,
and is subject to examination.
The Registrant and its subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions on
intercompany loans, investments, and restrictions on the terms of transactions
between the Registrant and its affiliates and on any extension of credit to its
affiliates. Dividends payable by the affiliate banks to the Registrant without
express regulatory approval are limited by a formula. The Registrant and its
subsidiaries are also subject to certain restrictions with respect to engaging
in the underwriting and public sale and distribution of securities. The
Registrant's commercial banks are subject to
7

PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
- -----------------------------
REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
requirements and restrictions under federal and state law, including
requirements to maintain reserves against deposits, restrictions on the types
and amounts of loans that may be granted and the interest that may be charged
thereon, and limitations on the types of investments that may be made and the
type of services which may be offered. Various consumer laws and regulations
also effect the operations of the Registrant's banking subsidiaries. The
Registrant's state-chartered banking subsidiaries are subject to federal and
state regulation of their activities and business, including in the case of
banks chartered in Ohio, by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions; in
Kentucky, by the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions; in Indiana, by
the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions; in Florida, by the Florida
Department of Banking and Finance; and in Michigan, by the Financial
Institutions Bureau.
The Financial Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) provides
that a holding company's controlled insured depository institutions are liable
for any loss incurred by the FDIC in connection with the default of, or any
FDIC-assisted transaction involving an affiliated insured bank or savings
association.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (the "FDIC
Improvement Act") covers a wide expanse of banking regulatory issues. The FDIC
Improvement Act deals with the recapitalization of the Bank Insurance Fund, with
deposit insurance reform, including requiring the FDIC to establish a risk-based
premium assessment system, and with a number of other regulatory and supervisory
matters.
Additional information regarding regulatory matters is included in Note 15 (page
24) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1999 Annual Report
to Shareholders, and is incorporated herein by reference and attached to this
filing as Exhibit 13.

weighted average yields on investment securities exempt from income taxes are
computed on a taxable-equivalent basis. The taxable-equivalent yields are net
after-tax yields to maturity divided by the complement of the full corporate tax
rate (35 percent). In order to express yields on a taxable-equivalent basis
yields on obligations of states and political subdivisions (municipal
securities) have been increased as follows:
Under 1 year 3.07%
1 - 5 years 2.87%
6 - 10 years 2.71%

RISK ELEMENTS
Interest on loans is normally accrued at the rate agreed upon at the time each
loan was negotiated. It is the Registrant's policy to discontinue accrual of
interest on commercial, construction and mortgage loans when there is a clear
indication the borrower's cash flow may not be sufficient to meet payments
as they become due. Loans, other than consumer loans, are placed on nonaccrual
status when principal or interest is past due ninety days or more, unless the
loan is well secured and in the process of collection. The following table
presents data concerning loans and leases at risk as of December 31, ($000's)
1999 1998 1997 1996 1995

Nonaccrual loans and leases $66,805 77,177 102,059 98,819 107,638

payments $68,233 87,002 55,779 48,060 25,893
Loans and leases renegotiated to
provide a reduction or deferral of
interest, principal or rental payments
because of the financial position
deterioration of the borrower $ -- 1,195 1,795 3,062 2,274
As of December 31, 1999, loans and leases of $39,574 were currently performing
in accordance with contractual terms where there are serious doubts as to the
ability of the borrower to comply with such terms.
For the years 1999, 1998 and 1997, interest income of $839, $2,343 and 2,388,
respectively was recorded on nonaccrual and renegotiated loans and leases.
Additional interest income of $5,447, $6,063 and $8,100 would have been recorded
if the nonaccrual and renegotiated loans and leases had been current in
accordance with their original terms.

Total reserve for credit losses $366,640 331,621 312,264 284,284 271,006
======== ======== ======== ======== ========
The reserve for credit losses is general in nature and is available to absorb
losses from any portion of the loan and lease portfolio.
As of December 31, 1999, the allowance for loan losses was $367 million or 1.47
percent of total loans, net of unearned interest. This compares to $332 million
or 1.48 percent of total loans, net of unearned interest, as of December 31,
1998. The decline in this ratio was due to an improvement in the credit quality
of consumer loans, as exhibited by the decrease of nonaccrual loans and leases
from $77.1 million at December 31, 1998 to $66.8 million at December 31, 1999.
Total underperforming assets also decreased from $177.9 million, or .80% of
total loans and leases outstanding, at December 31, 1998 to $145.5 million, or
.58% of total loans and leases outstanding, at December 31, 1999.
As shown in the table above, the impact of the above improvement in
underperforming assets was partially offset by an increase in commercial
exposure through acquisitions. The allocation of the allowance for loan and
lease losses for consumer and commercial mortgages increased from $1.8 million,
or 1% of the allowance for loan and lease losses, at December 31, 1998 to $13.2
million, or 4% of the allowance for loan and lease losses, December 31, 1999.
The allocation of the allowance for loan and lease losses for commercial loans
increased from $83.3 million, or 25% of the allowance for loan and lease losses,
at December 31, 1998 to $143.7 million, or 39% of the allowance for loan and
lease losses, at December 31, 1999.
Net charge-offs increased in 1999 to $112 million from $110 million in 1998.
In 1999 and 1998, the Registrant recorded $26.2 million and $16.7 million,
respectively of merger-related charge-offs in connection with acquisitions of
Peoples and CNB in 1999 and CitFed Bancorp, Inc. and State Savings Company in
1998. Merger-related charge-offs occurred due to the change in intent of the
management regarding the work-out strategy for certain acquired problem loans
and to conform the acquired entities' charge-off practices to those of the
Registrant. Excluding merger-related charge-offs in 1999 and 1998, net
charge-offs declined to $85 million from $93 million.

RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The reserve for credit losses is maintained at a level management considers to
be adequate to absorb probable loan and lease losses inherent in the portfolio,
based on evaluations of the collectibility and historical loss experience of
loans and leases. Credit losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the
reserve. Provisions for credit losses are based on management's review of the
historical credit loss experience and such factors which, in management's
judgement, deserve consideration under existing economic conditions in
estimating potential credit losses. The reserve is based on ongoing quarterly
assessments of the probable estimated losses inherent in the loan and lease
portfolio. In determining the appropriate level of reserves, the Registrant
estimates losses using a range derived from "base" and "conservative" estimates.
The Registrant's methodology for assessing the appropriate reserve level
consists of several key elements.
Larger commercial loans that exhibit potential or observed credit weaknesses are
subject to individual review. Where appropriate, reserves are allocated to
individual loans based on management's estimate of the borrower's ability to
repay the loan given the availability of collateral, other sources of cash flow
and legal options available to the Registrant. Historical loss rates are applied
to other commercial loans not subject to specific reserve allocations. The loss
rates are derived from a migration analysis, which computes the net charge-offs
experience sustained on loans according to their internal risk grade. These
grades encompass nine categories that define a borrower's ability to repay their
loan obligations.
Homogenous loans, such as consumer installment, residential mortgage loans, and
automobile leases are not individually risk graded. Reserves are established for
each pool of loans based on the expected net charge-offs for one year. Loss
rates are based on the average net charge-off history by loan category.
Historical loss rates for commercial and consumer loans may be adjusted for
significant factors that, in management's judgement, reflect the impact of any
current conditions on loss recognition. Factors which management considers in
the analysis include the effects of the national and local economies, trends in
the nature and volume of loans (delinquencies, charge-offs, nonaccrual and
problem loans), changes in the internal lending policies and credit standards,
collection practices, and examination results from bank regulatory agencies and
the Registrant's internal credit examiners.
An unallocated reserve is maintained to recognize the imprecision in estimating
and measuring loss when evaluating reserves for individual loans or pools of
loans.
Included in the review of individual loans are those that are impaired as
provided in SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan".
Any reserves for impaired loans are measured based on the present value of
expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or
fair value of the underlying collateral. The Registrant evaluates the
collectibility of both principal and interest when assessing the need for loss
accrual.
Reserves on individual loans and historical loss rates are reviewed quarterly
and adjusted as necessary based on changing borrower and/or collateral
conditions and actual collection and charge-off experience.
The Registrant's primary market area for lending in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana,
Florida, Michigan, Illinois and Arizona. When evaluating the adequacy of
reserves, consideration is given to this regional geographic concentration and
the closely-associated effect changing economic conditions has on the
Registrant's customers.
Based on the procedures discussed above, management is of the opinion the
reserve of $366,640,000 was adequate to absorb estimated credit losses
associated with the loan and lease portfolio at December 31, 1999.

OF OPERATIONS
- -------------
Year 2000 Readiness
- -------------------
The Registrant completed the awareness, assessment, renovation, integration and
interface testing, validation and implementation efforts for the Year 2000 (Y2K)
date change. This effort included both internal and external resources to
identify and remediate all information technology systems and computer chip
embedded functions including the Y2K efforts of critical business partners,
vendors and service suppliers. The Registrant's efforts were conducted in
accordance with the guidelines provided by the Federal Financial Institutions
Examination Council (FFIEC). Because internal staff largely completed the Y2K
compliance effort, the Registrant did not incur significant costs from outside
contractors. To date, the Registrant has spent under $10 million. All but
immaterial amounts of these costs are internal costs, related to the lost
opportunity of allocating time of the internal staff elsewhere. The costs also
include all software, hardware and labor costs. The Registrant's information
technology systems, hardware functions and business critical functions and
services are operating without any Y2K problems. The Registrant is not aware of
any significant Y2K related problems experienced by its vendors or service
suppliers.
The Registrant believes all its critical systems are Y2K ready. However, there
is no guarantee that problems will not arise in the future. The Registrant has
contingency plans to be implemented if required, should a significant problem
occur. Contingency plans for critical business partners were also developed. The
Federal Reserve, which is the Registrant's primary regulator, includes a review
of the risk assessments and contingency plans in its quarterly examinations of
the Registrant. Thus, the Registrant believes that the risk related to future
exposure of Y2K issues is minimal and will not have a material impact on
operations.
