UNION PLANTERS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note   1.  Principles of Accounting

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The foregoing financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included.

The accounting policies followed by Union Planters Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, Union Planters or the Company) for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting except as noted below. The notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Appendix C of Union Planters Corporation's Definitive Proxy Statement for the Annual Shareholders' Meeting held April 18, 2002 (the Definitive Proxy Statement including the 2001 Annual Financial Disclosures are referred to as the Proxy and Annual Financial Disclosures). Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2002 financial reporting presentation.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which changes the required accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supercedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 142 addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in the financial statements upon their acquisition. SFAS No. 142 changes the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets in the following significant respects:

In October 2001, the FASB issued interpretive guidance for SFAS No. 142 affirming that intangible assets acquired through the purchase of branches will continue to be amortized. This will result in the continued amortization of certain unidentified intangibles included in goodwill associated with branch purchases. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, this amortization expense was $3.7 million and $7.3 million, respectively. The FASB has undertaken a project to review this issue during 2002.

Union Planters adopted this standard on January 1, 2002. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, the net impact on the consolidated statement of earnings was an increase in net income of $8.0 million and $16.1 million, respectively. See Note 12 for further discussion.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions," for the disposal of a business and amends Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements." Significant changes in accounting include:

The provisions of this standard are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Union Planters adopted this standard on January 1, 2002. The adoption had an immaterial impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Note   2.  Acquisitions

On February 12, 2001, Union Planters acquired Jefferson Savings Bancorp, Inc. (Jefferson Savings) of Ballwin, Missouri, the parent of Jefferson Heritage Bank, a federal savings bank. Jefferson Savings had total assets of $1.6 billion, total loans of $1.3 billion and total deposits of $877 million at acquisition. Union Planters exchanged approximately 6.6 million shares of its common stock for all of the outstanding shares of Jefferson Savings. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Goodwill and other intangibles resulting from the acquisition were $46.5 million.

Union Planters previously announced its intent to purchase common shares up to the number of shares issued in the transaction, and at June 30, 2002, all shares had been purchased and retired.

Short-Term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings include short-term FHLB advances, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings. Short-term FHLB advances are borrowings from the FHLB, which are collateralized by mortgage-backed securities and mortgage loans. Federal funds purchased arise from Union Planters' market activity with its correspondent banks and generally mature in one business day. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are collateralized by U.S. Government and agency securities.

Short-term borrowings are summarized as follows:

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

Certain of Union Planters' banking and thrift subsidiaries had outstanding advances with original maturity dates of greater than one year from the FHLB under Blanket Agreements for Advances and Security Agreements (the Agreements). The Agreements enable these subsidiaries to borrow funds from the FHLB to fund mortgage loan programs and to satisfy certain other funding needs. The value of the mortgage-backed securities and mortgage loans pledged under the Agreements must be maintained at not less than 115% and 150%, respectively, of the outstanding advances. At June 30, 2002, Union Planters had an adequate amount of mortgage-backed securities and loans to satisfy the collateral requirements. A summary of the advances is as follows:

Note   9.  Income Taxes

Applicable income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $113.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 30.94%. Applicable income taxes for the same period in 2001 were $110.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 33.92%. The decrease in the effective rate in 2002, as compared to 2001, is due to the change in the mix of taxable and nontaxable revenues and the change in accounting treatment for goodwill. Additionally other tax strategies were also initiated that are designed to enhance the Company's ability to raise Tier I capital and also have the added benefit of reducing both federal and state tax expense. The tax expense applicable to investment securities gains for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $4.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

At June 30, 2002, the Company had a net deferred tax asset of $54.1 million compared to $67.4 million at December 31, 2001. The net deferred tax asset includes a deferred tax liability related to the net unrealized gain on available for sale securities of $50.8 million and $31.8 million, respectively. Based upon historical earnings and anticipated future earnings, management believes that normal operations will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize in full these deferred tax benefits. Therefore, no extraordinary strategies are deemed necessary by management to generate sufficient taxable income for purposes of realizing the net deferred tax asset.

Note 11.  Mortgage Loan Servicing

Union Planters acted as servicing agent for residential mortgage loans totaling approximately $18.6 billion at June 30, 2002, compared to $16.2 billion at December 31, 2001. The loans serviced for others are not included in Union Planters' consolidated balance sheet. The following table presents a reconciliation of the changes in mortgage servicing rights:

Union Planters had a valuation allowance of $11.9 million associated with the mortgage servicing rights portfolio at June 30, 2002 compared to $15.1 million as of December 31, 2001. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights at June 30, 2002 was $208.6 million. Significant assumptions utilized in determining the fair value were as follows:

Dealer consensus prepayment speeds

19.2% CPR

Market discount rates

9.6%        

Both of the significant assumptions above directly relate to and move in concert with mortgage interest rates. In the view of management, in order to understand the hypothetical effect on the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights as a result of unfavorable variations in the significant assumptions, it is necessary to measure the effect that would result from a decline in mortgage interest rates. At June 30, 2002, the reduction in the current fair value of mortgage servicing rights resulting from an immediate 50 and 100 basis point decline in mortgage interest rates would be approximately $59.0 million and $99.3 million, respectively.

Note 12.  Intangible Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, most goodwill is no longer subject to amortization. The carrying value of goodwill not subject to amortization was $529.3 million at June 30, 2002 of which $50.7 million was in the "other operating units" line of business, with the remainder in the "banking" line of business. During the second quarter of 2002, Union Planters finalized its evaluation of goodwill for impairment using a discounted cash flow method. There was no impairment. Had SFAS No. 142 been implemented prior to 2001, net income for the second quarter and first six months of 2001 would have increased $8.0 million and $16.1 million, respectively. Both basic and diluted earnings per share would have increased $ .04 for the quarter and $.08 for the first six months.

Union Planters' other intangible assets are core deposit intangibles acquired through bank acquisitions and are subject to amortization periods up to 15 years with no residual value. The gross amount of other intangible assets at June 30, 2002 was $232.0 million, with accumulated amortization of $56.3 million. All other intangibles are in the "banking" line of business. The weighted average amortization period is 159.9 months. Amortization expense over the next five years on current other intangibles is expected to be:

  1. Parent company noninterest income and earnings before income taxes are net of the intercompany dividend eliminations of $170.7 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $241.2 million and $105.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.

Note 14.  Contingent Liabilities

Union Planters and/or its subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and are parties to various pending civil actions, all of which are being defended vigorously. Certain proceedings previously outstanding have been subsequently settled within previously estimated amounts. While it is impossible to predict with certainty the outcome of any legal proceeding, based upon present information including evaluations by outside counsel, management is of the opinion that neither Union Planters' financial position, results of operations nor liquidity will be materially affected by the ultimate resolution of pending or threatened legal proceedings. Reference is made to Part II Item 1 for a discussion of legal proceedings.

Note 15.  Subsequent Event

Subsequent to June 30, 2002, Union Planters purchased and retired 3.0 million shares of its common stock. This brings the total number of shares purchased under the Board of Directors' authorization of 10.7 million shares to 7.0 million.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following provides a narrative discussion and analysis of significant changes in Union Planters' results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Appendix C of Union Planters Corporation's Definitive Proxy Statement for the Annual Shareholders' Meeting held April 18, 2002 (the Definitive Proxy Statement including the 2001 Annual Financial Disclosures are referred to as the Proxy and Annual Financial Disclosures), the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 included in Part I hereof and the supplemental financial data included in this discussion.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These statements are contained in certain sections that follow, such as Net Interest Income, Provision for Losses on Loans, Noninterest Income, Noninterest Expense, Loans, Interest Rate Risk, as well as Legal Proceedings in Part II, Item 1. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical information, but rather are related to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. The words "anticipate," "project," "expect," "believe," "intend," "estimate," "should," "is likely" and other expressions that indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's expectations as well as certain assumptions and estimates made by, and information available to, management at the time the statements are made. Examples of factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include the following: the timing and amount of interest rate movements (which can have a significant impact on a financial institution); effects of changes in general economic conditions, as well as economic conditions in markets in which Union Planters conducts business; market and monetary fluctuations and uncertainties in the financial markets; inflation; competition within and outside the financial services industry; technology; risks inherent in originating loans, including prepayment risks, fluctuations in collateral values and changes in customer profiles; loan loss experience, the rate of loan charge-offs and the level of the provision for losses on loans; and changes in accounting principles. Additionally, the policies of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve), and insurance and securities regulatory agencies, unanticipated regulatory and judicial proceedings, unanticipated results in pending litigation or Internal Revenue Service examinations, changes in the laws, regulations and regulatory policies applicable to Union Planters and its subsidiaries, and Union Planters' success in executing its business plans and strategies and managing the risks involved in the foregoing, could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations. Union Planters assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements that are made from time to time.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of Union Planters and its subsidiaries conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Union Planters considers its critical accounting policies to include the following:

Allowance for Losses on Loans. The allowance for losses on loans represents management's best estimate of losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. The provision for losses on loans is determined based on management's assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current and anticipated economic conditions and the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans and the results of regulatory examinations.

Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that Union Planters will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The measurement of impaired loans is generally based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate stipulated in the loan agreement, except that all collateral-dependent loans are measured for impairment based on the fair value of the collateral. In measuring the fair value of the collateral, management uses assumptions (e.g., discount rates) and methodologies (e.g., comparison to the recent selling price of similar assets) consistent with those that would be utilized by unrelated third parties.

Changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, in economic conditions, in historical loss experience and in the conditions of the various markets in which collateral may be sold may all affect the required level of the allowance for losses on loans and the associated provision for loan losses.

Estimation of Fair Value. The estimation of fair value is significant to a number of Union Planters' assets, including trading account assets, loans held for resale, available for sale investment securities, mortgage servicing rights, goodwill, other real estate owned, as well as, assets and liabilities associated with derivative financial instruments. These are all recorded at either fair value or at the lower of cost or fair value. Furthermore, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments as a part of the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Fair values are volatile and may be influenced by a number of factors, including market interest rates, prepayment speeds, discount rates and the shape of yield curves.

Fair values for trading account assets and most available for sale investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on the quoted prices of similar instruments. The fair values of loans held for resale are based on anticipated liquidation values, while the fair values of mortgage servicing rights are based on discounted cash flow analysis utilizing dealer consensus prepayment speeds and market discount rates. The fair values of residual interests in loans securitized or sold (included as part of available for sale investment securities) are estimated based on prepayment speeds, weighted-average life, expected credit losses and an assumed discount rate. The fair values of other real estate owned are typically determined based on appraisals by third parties, less estimated costs to sell. The fair values of derivative financial instruments are estimated based on current market quotes. Fair values of goodwill are estimated using the present value of discounted cash flows method. Cash flows are estimated by weighting the probability of several possible trends.

SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS OVERVIEW

For the second quarter of 2002, Union Planters reported net earnings of $127.6 million, or $.62 per diluted common share, an increase from $109.3 million, or $.53 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2001. These earnings represented annualized returns on average assets and average common equity of 1.59% and 16.08%, respectively, compared to 1.26% and 14.28%, respectively, for the same period in 2001.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest income for the second quarter of 2002 was $325.9 million, an increase of $1.2 million over the same quarter last year and a $2.4 million decrease from the first quarter of 2002.

The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2002 was 4.45%, which compares to 4.11% and 4.53%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2001 and first quarter of 2002. The net interest rate spread was 3.96% for the second quarter of 2002, an increase from 3.42% for the second quarter of 2001, and down from 4.02% for the first quarter of 2002.

Changes in net interest income and net interest margin are the result of repositioning the balance sheet, which was largely completed during the first quarter of 2002. Reference is made to Union Planters' average balance sheet, analysis of volume and rate changes and Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management section, which follow this discussion, for additional information regarding the changes in net interest income and balance sheet repositioning initiatives.

Taxable-equivalent interest income decreased $138.8 million for the second quarter of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. This decline was attributable primarily to a decrease in the average yield on earning assets from 7.89% to 6.61%, which reduced interest income by $95.9 million. The decline in yield is attributable primarily to the decreasing interest rate trend. A $2.3 billion decrease in average earning assets, primarily loans, decreased interest income $43.0 million. Compared to the first quarter of 2002, interest income decreased $11.7 million, which was attributable to a decline in the average yield on earning assets.

For the first half of 2002, interest income decreased $297.4 million compared to the same period last year. The decrease was driven by a decrease in the average yield on earning assets from 8.10% to 6.73%, or a $207.3 million decrease in interest income. Average earning assets, primarily investment securities and loans, decreased $2.5 billion, which decreased interest income $93.0 million.

The decline in average yields on earning assets during the second quarter of 2002 is a result of a lower interest rate environment. While the average yields on earning assets declined, average rates paid for interest-bearing liabilities also decreased, and overall net interest income improved. Reference is made to the Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management discussions for additional information regarding balance sheet management initiatives, changes in interest rates and how the Company is positioned to respond to the changes.

The percentage of loans to total earning assets has increased over the prior year. This change in mix is due to an effort by management to reposition the balance sheet and make more effective use of assets. In this effort, Union Planters has sold selected investment securities and sold or reduced portfolios of low return loan products.

Interest expense decreased $140.0 million in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the same quarter last year. This decrease was driven by a decrease in the average rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities from 4.47% to 2.65%, which resulted from the decreasing interest rate environment. This reduction in rates paid decreased interest expense $108.7 million. Average interest-bearing liabilities also decreased $2.8 billion, which decreased interest expense an additional $31.4 million. Compared to the first quarter of 2002, interest expense decreased $9.3 million due primarily to the decline in interest rates. The average rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 2.83% to 2.65%, which reduced interest expense $9.8 million.

For the first half of 2002, interest expense decreased $309.6 million. The decrease was driven by a decrease in the average rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities from 4.72% to 2.74%, which contributed $239.0 million to the reduced expense. A $3.1 billion decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities also contributed a $70.6 million decrease to interest expense. The decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities related primarily to short-term debt.

Over the first half of the year, management has established initiatives to reposition the balance sheet to make the most effective use of assets and capital. In this effort, Union Planters has grown core deposits, reduced reliance on wholesale funding, refinanced long-term debt, focused on pricing of relationships and reduced interest rate risk. The reduction in average rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities is attributable to these management initiatives and the lower interest rate environment. Reference is made to the Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management section for a discussion of the impact of changing interest rates.

Provision for Losses on Loans

The provision for losses on loans for the second quarter of 2002 was $44.9 million, or .78% of average loans on an annualized basis. This compares to $28.9 million, or .48% of average loans, for the second quarter of 2001. The higher provision for losses on loans in the first and second quarters of 2002 is attributable to current economic conditions and the resulting increase in nonperforming loans. Reference is made to the Allowance for Losses on Loans and Nonperforming Loans discussions for additional information regarding loan charge-offs and other items impacting the provision for losses on loans.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2002 was $182.6 million, an increase of $7.3 million, or 4.1%, from the first quarter of 2002 and a decrease of $4.5 million, or 2.4%, from the second quarter of 2001. Adjusted for significant items, noninterest income as a percentage of total revenues was 35% in the second quarter of 2002, compared to 36% for the same quarter last year and 34% for the first quarter of 2002.

Excluding these items, noninterest income was $170.2 million for the current quarter, an increase of $5.6 million from the first quarter of this year and a decrease of $7.4 million from the same quarter last year. Noninterest income for the first six months was $334.7 million, a decrease of $7.8 million from the same period last year.

Growth in noninterest income continues to be one of management's priorities, and as such, considerable effort has been spent improving its sources. In that effort, Union Planters has, among other things, implemented controls around the administration of pricing. The major components of noninterest income are presented on the consolidated statement of earnings; following is a discussion of the key components:

Service charges on deposit accounts. These fees were $56.6 million for the second quarter of 2002, a slight increase compared to the same period in 2001 and an increase of $4.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2002. The increase compared to the first quarter of 2002 is attributable to a significant increase in the volume of checks written on accounts with insufficient funds. For the first half of 2002, these fees decreased slightly from the first half of 2001 to $108.9 million.

Mortgage banking revenues. These revenues decreased slightly in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001, and decreased $4.2 million compared to the first quarter of 2002. For the first half of 2002, mortgage banking revenues increased $7.1 million, or 8.1%, to $94.5 million compared to the same period last year. The lower interest rate environment during the first half of 2002 increased mortgage loan production and the level of mortgage refinancing activity and resulted in increased mortgage origination fees and gains on mortgage loans sold to the secondary market.

Merchant services income. In the fourth quarter of 2001, Union Planters sold this nonstrategic business and entered into a long-term marketing agreement with the buyer. The terms of the sale included certain obligations, which expired during the second quarter resulting in the recognition of $8.9 million of income. Income excluding the aforementioned $8.9 million was $.7 million compared to $11.3 million for the second quarter of last year and $.8 million for the first quarter of 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, these revenues, excluding the aforementioned $8.9 million, were $1.5 million and $21.0 million, respectively.

Factoring commissions and fees. Commissions and fees earned by Capital Factors, a subsidiary of Union Planters, were $10.5 million for the second quarter of 2002, an increase of 16.9% from the first quarter of 2002 and 6.3% from the second quarter of last year. These increases are related to an increased volume of factored receivables. For the first half of 2002, these revenues were $19.6 million compared to $19.1 million for the same period last year.

Insurance and investments. This category of noninterest income is comprised of insurance commissions, annuity sales commissions and brokerage fee income. For the second quarter of 2002, these revenues were $14.8 million, an increase of $2.5 million from the first quarter of 2002 and $2.8 million from the second quarter of 2001. For the first half of 2002, insurance and investments revenues were $27.0 million compared to $23.7 million for the same period in 2001. The increase during the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001 is primarily due to a substantial increase in annuity sales.

Other noninterest income. The components of other noninterest income are presented in Note 8 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2002 was $272.3 million, which compares to $309.0 million for the second quarter of 2001 and $268.1 million for the first quarter of 2002. For the first six months of 2002, noninterest expense was $540.4 million compared to $598.7 million for the same period in 2001. The Company's efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2002, excluding significant items and the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles, was 50.7%, compared to 50.9% for the first quarter of 2002 and 55.7% for the second quarter of 2001.

Excluding these items, noninterest expense was $259.4 million for the current quarter, a decrease of $36.6 million compared to the same quarter last year and a slight decrease from the first quarter of 2002. Noninterest expense for the first six months of 2002 was $517.6 million, a decrease of $57.8 million compared to the same period last year.

UPExcel, a comprehensive strategic initiative introduced by management last year, has driven the reduction of noninterest expense by reducing the number of banking centers, streamlining back office operations and improving procurement practices.

The major components of noninterest expense are presented on the consolidated statement of earnings; following, is a discussion of the key components:

Salaries and employee benefits. These expenses were $128.6 million for the second quarter of 2002, a decrease of $4.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2001 and $3.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2002. For the first half of 2002, salaries and employee benefits decreased $4.5 million compared to the same period last year. The reduction is primarily due to the reduction in full-time equivalent employees. At June 30, 2002, Union Planters had 11,313 full-time equivalent employees, compared to 12,358 and 11,608, respectively, at June 30, 2001 and March 31, 2002.

Occupancy and equipment expense. Net occupancy and equipment expense was $45.6 million for the second quarter of 2002, a decrease of $2.9 million from the second quarter of 2001 and down slightly from the first quarter of 2002. For the first half of 2002, these expenses were $91.7 million, a decrease of $4.6 million compared to the same period in 2001. The decreases are primarily attributable to better control over spending, renegotiated contracts with vendors of bank and facilities equipment and services, as well as a decrease in the number of banking locations since June 2001.

Goodwill and other intangibles amortization. These expenses decreased $8.6 million from the second quarter of 2001 and were relatively unchanged compared to the first quarter of 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, these expenses were $15.5 million compared to $32.8 million for the same period last year. The decrease is due to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which discontinued the amortization of goodwill for most acquisitions. Refer to Notes 1 and 12 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for more information.

Mortgage intangibles expense. For the second quarter of 2002, these expenses were $12.3 million, an increase of $8.2 million compared to the same period in 2001 and $8.0 million compared to the first quarter of 2002. For the first half of 2002, these expenses increased $2.2 million compared to the same period in 2001. The increases relate to the higher level of mortgage refinancing activity in the lower interest rate environment since the first half of 2001. Increased prepayments during the second quarter of 2002, which accelerated the amortization of mortgage servicing rights, resulted in an impairment charge of $2.0 million.

Other noninterest expenses. The components of other noninterest expense are presented in Note 8 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Union Planters' total assets were $32.4 billion at June 30, 2002 compared to $34.5 billion at June 30, 2001 and $33.2 billion at December 31, 2001. Average assets were $32.2 billion for the second quarter of 2002 compared to $34.7 billion for the second quarter of 2001.

Earning assets at June 30, 2002 were $29.7 billion compared to $30.1 billion at December 31, 2001 and $31.5 billion at June 30, 2001. Average earning assets were $29.4 billion for the second quarter of 2002, which compares to $31.7 billion for the same period last year and to $29.4 billion for the first quarter of 2002.

Investment Securities

Union Planters' investment securities portfolio of $4.9 billion at June 30, 2002 consisted entirely of available for sale securities, which are carried on the balance sheet at fair value. This compares to investment securities of $5.3 billion and $4.8 billion at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The decrease in investment securities from June 30, 2001 is consistent with management's strategy of reducing the proportion of investment securities to total earning assets. During the first half of 2002, Union Planters sold $365.2 million of investment securities at a gain of $12.0 million.

At June 30, 2002, these securities had net unrealized gains of $138.5 million (before income taxes). This compares to net unrealized gains of $86.2 million and $86.4 million, respectively, at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001. Refer to Note 3 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the composition of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agency obligations represented approximately 54% of the investment securities portfolio at June 30, 2002, including government Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) and mortgage-backed securities issues, which represented 49% of the portfolio. Union Planters has limited credit risk in the investment portfolio which, at June 30, 2002 consisted of investment grade CMOs representing 23.8% of the portfolio, municipal obligations representing 16.4% of the portfolio and other stocks and securities, primarily Federal Reserve Bank and FHLB stock representing 5.8% of the portfolio. Management does not consider that risk to be significant and does not believe that cash flows will be significantly impacted. Reference is made to the Net Interest Income and Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management discussions for information regarding the market-risk in the investment securities portfolio.

Loans

Loans, net of unearned income, at June 30, 2002 were $23.3 billion compared to $24.5 billion and $23.2 billion at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, respectively. Loans held for resale were $1.1 billion at June 30, 2002 compared to $1.3 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, at June 30 and December 31, 2001. Note 4 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report presents the composition of the loan portfolio.

Average loans, excluding FHA/VA loans, were $23.0 billion for the second quarter of 2002 compared to $24.3 billion for the same quarter in 2001 and compared to $24.2 billion for the first quarter of 2002. Excluding the impact of loan divestitures, average loans increased slightly compared to the same quarter last year.

Allowance for Losses on Loans

The allowance for losses on loans (the Allowance) at June 30, 2002 was $353.6 million, an increase of $11.6 million from December 31, 2001. The Allowance at June 30, 2001 was $342.9 million. The increase in the Allowance from December 31, 2001 related to the provision for losses on loans exceeding net charge-offs. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were .75% for the second quarter of 2002, an increase over the second quarter of 2001. Net charge-offs for the balance of the year are expected to be in line with the first half of 2002. Union Planters' loan portfolio is diversified and well secured, and management expects losses to remain at their current manageable level. This is a forward-looking statement and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those identified in this discussion and in the discussion of Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information.

Union Planters maintains the Allowance at a level deemed sufficient to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is reviewed quarterly to assess the risk in the portfolio. This methodology includes assigning loss factors to loans with similar characteristics for which inherent probable loss can be assessed. The loss factors are based on historical experience as adjusted for current business and economic conditions and are applied to the respective portfolios to assist in determination of the overall adequacy of the Allowance.

A periodic review of selected credits (based on loan size) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk or inherent losses. The primary responsibility for this review rests with the management personnel assigned with accountability for the credit relationship. This review is supplemented with periodic reviews by Union Planters' credit review function, as well as periodic examination by the applicable regulatory agencies. These reviews provide information, which assists management in the timely identification of problems and potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit represents a probable loss or risk, which should be recognized.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the Allowance at the dates indicated and certain key ratios for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 and for the year ended December 31, 2001:

(1) See the preceding table for the amount of FHA/VA government-insured guaranteed/loans on nonaccrual and past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.

Loans Other than FHA/VA Loans. Nonperforming assets increased $6.9 million over the first quarter of 2002 and $60.6 million over June 30, 2001. A general increase in all categories of nonperforming assets has been experienced since the second quarter of 2001 primarily due to prevailing economic conditions. During the second quarter of 2002, there has been a decrease in loans past due less than 90 days and an increase in foreclosed property due to action taken on past due accounts. Nonperforming assets are expected to increase moderately through the balance of the year. Management believes the risk of losses in nonperforming assets will be mitigated by the diversity of the loan portfolio and the generally sound collateralization practices across the banking franchise. These are forward-looking statements, and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those mentioned in the Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information at the beginning of this discussion.

Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest totaled $201.6 million, or .87% of loans, at June 30, 2002 compared to $132.0 million, or .55%, and $187.6 million, or .82% of loans, at June 30, 2001 and March 31, 2002, respectively. The preceding table details the composition of these loans. As discussed above, the increase in these loans related primarily to the slowing of the economy.

FHA/VA Loans. FHA/VA government-insured/guaranteed loans do not, in management's opinion, have traditional credit risk inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio and risk of principal loss is considered minimal. FHA/VA loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest totaled $35.1 million at June 30, 2002 which compares to $120.4 million and $38.9 million at June 30, 2001 and March 31, 2002, respectively. The decline in past due loans at June 30, 2002 compared to June 30, 2001 resulted primarily from the sale of $126.9 million in delinquent FHA/VA loans in the third quarter of 2001. At June 30, 2002, June 30, 2001 and March 31, 2002, $1.7 million, $2.3 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of these loans were placed on nonaccrual status by management because the contractual payment of interest by FHA/VA had stopped due to missed filing dates. No loss of principal is expected from these loans.

FHA/VA Foreclosure Claims

Provisions for losses related to FHA/VA claims are provided through noninterest expense as provisions for losses on FHA/VA foreclosure claims and the corresponding liability is carried in other liabilities. The provision for losses on FHA/VA foreclosure claims was $.3 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. At June 30, 2002, the Company had a reserve for FHA/VA claims losses of $2.9 million compared to $8.3 million and $3.0 million at June 30, 2001 and March 31, 2002, respectively.

Potential Problem Assets

Potential problem assets consist of assets that are generally secured and are not currently considered nonperforming. They include those assets where information about possible credit problems has raised serious doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present repayment terms. Historically, such assets have been loans, which have ultimately become nonperforming. At June 30, 2002, Union Planters had potential problem assets (all loans) aggregating $69.7 million, comprised of 16 loans, the largest of which is $11.8 million. This compares to potential problem assets (all loans) aggregating $44.4 million, comprised of 13 loans, at June 30, 2001 and $70.0 million, or 22 loans, at March 31, 2002.

Capital expenditures

During the first half of 2002, the Company capitalized approximately $28.7 million in expenditures for premises and equipment. Included in this amount are expenditures for hardware and software, as well as consulting fees directly related to their installation.

Deposits

Union Planters' deposit base is its primary source of liquidity and consists of deposits from the communities served by Union Planters.

Average deposits were $23.5 billion for the second quarter of 2002 compared to $23.7 billion for the second quarter of 2001 and $23.6 billion for the first quarter of 2002. Core deposits for the second quarter of 2002 increased $395.2 million over the second quarter of 2001 and were down $39.1 million from the first quarter of 2002. Overall, deposits decreased $155.7 million from second quarter of 2001 and $93.8 million from the first quarter of 2002. Average deposits were impacted by sales of branches over the past year having deposit balances of over $1.0 billion. Excluding these sales, deposits for the second quarter of 2002 increased $887.8 million over the second quarter of 2001 and decreased $63.5 million from the first quarter of 2002.

Short-Term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings were $2.5 billion at June 30, 2002 compared to $4.0 billion at June 30, 2001 and $1.7 billion at March 31, 2002. Average short-term borrowings for the second quarter of 2002 declined $2.4 billion and $81.5 million, respectively, compared to the same quarter last year and the first quarter of 2002. The composition of this decrease, primarily short-term FHLB advances, federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, has resulted from the strategic repositioning of the balance sheet referenced in the Investment Securities, Loan, and Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management discussions. Reference is made to the Investment Securities, Loan, and Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management discussions for additional information.

Short- and Medium-Term Senior Notes

On June 7, 2002, UPB issued $600.0 million in Medium-Term Senior Notes under its $5.0 billion senior and subordinated bank note program. The notes carry an interest rate of 5.125% annually and mature in June 2007. The funds from the issuance were used for general corporate purposes. At December 31, 2001, there were no notes outstanding under this program. At June 30, 2001, there was $60.0 million outstanding.

Shareholders' Equity

Union Planters' total shareholders' equity increased $23.1 million from December 31, 2001 to $3.2 billion at June 30, 2002. The major items affecting shareholders' equity are as follows:

The Board of Directors authorized the purchase from time to time of up to 10.7 million shares. During 2002, 1.5 million shares were purchased, bringing the total purchased under this authorization to 4.0 million. The Board of Directors also authorized the purchase of 6.6 million shares issued in the Jefferson Heritage acquisition. During 2002, 3.0 million shares were purchased under this authorization, which completed the acquisition of the shares issued.

Subsequent to June 30, 2002, Union Planters purchased and retired 3.0 million shares of its common stock. This brings the total number of shares purchased under the Board of Directors' authorization of 10.7 million shares to 7.0 million.

Liquidity

Union Planters requires liquidity sufficient to meet cash requirements for deposit withdrawals, to make new loans and satisfy loan commitments, to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and to repay borrowings at maturity. Deposits, available for sale securities and money market investments are Union Planters' primary sources of liquidity. Liquidity is also achieved through short-term borrowings, borrowings under available lines of credit, and issuance of securities and debt instruments in the financial markets. Union Planters believes it has adequate liquidity to meet its operating requirements.

Parent company liquidity is achieved and maintained by dividends received from subsidiaries, interest on advances to subsidiaries and interest on its available for sale investment securities portfolio. At June 30, 2002, the parent company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $471.2 million, which compares to $452.8 million and $518.4 million, respectively, at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001. Net working capital (total assets maturing within one year less similar liabilities) was $440.5 million, which compares to $455.5 million and $502.0 million, respectively, at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

At July 1, 2002, the parent company could have received dividends from subsidiaries of $324.1 million without prior regulatory approval. The payment of dividends by Union Planters' subsidiaries will be dependent on the future earnings and capital and liquidity considerations. Management believes that the parent company has adequate liquidity to meet its cash needs, including the payment of its regular dividends and servicing of its debt.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk and Asset/Liability Management

Union Planters' assets and liabilities are principally financial in nature, and the resulting earnings, primarily net interest income, are subject to change as a result of fluctuations in market interest rates and the mix of the various assets and liabilities. Interest rates in the financial markets affect pricing decisions on assets and liabilities, and the resulting net interest income represented approximately 66% of Union Planters' revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Consequently, a substantial part of Union Planters' risk-management activities are devoted to managing interest rate risk. Currently, Union Planters does not have any significant risks related to foreign exchange, commodities or equity risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Since one of the most important aspects of management's efforts to sustain long-term profitability for Union Planters is the management of interest rate risk, management's goal is to optimize net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk. To achieve this goal, a proper balance must be maintained between assets and liabilities with respect to size, maturity, repricing date, rate of return and degree of risk. Reference is made to the Investment Securities, Loans and Other Earning Assets discussions for additional information regarding the risks related to these items.

Union Planters' Asset/Liability Management Committee (the ALCO Committee) oversees the management of interest rate risk, investments, capital and liquidity management activities. The ALCO Committee meets monthly and reviews the outlook for the economy and interest rates, Union Planters' balance sheet structure, yields on earning assets and rates on interest-bearing liabilities, and the impact of anticipated business activities on these items. The primary method of analyzing and managing interest rate risk at Union Planters is simulation analysis (projecting net interest income under various interest rate and balance sheet assumptions).

Interest rate risk is evaluated by conducting balance sheet simulations to project net interest income for twelve months forward under various interest rate scenarios. Each of these scenarios is compared with a base case scenario wherein current market rates and current period balances are held constant for the simulation period.

The scenarios include immediate "shocks" to current rates of 200 basis points up and down and a "most likely" scenario in which current rates are moved according to economic forecasts and management's expectations of changes in administered rates. At June 30, 2002, an additional scenario of 100 basis points down was run due to the unique interest rate environment in which a 200 basis point decrease would drive many key market interest rates below zero, and, therefore, the risk assessment would not be meaningful.

The results of these simulations are compared to policy guidelines approved by the ALCO Committee, which limit the change in net interest income to 20% of net earnings when compared with the base case (flat) scenario.

The impact of changes in interest rates on net earnings, stated in terms of annual dollar amount and percentage of net earnings, are as follows:

____________________

(a) The most likely change scenario at June 30, 2002 reflects a 175 basis point increase in federal funds rate over 12 months of simulation. At December 31, 2001 the scenario reflects a 175 basis point increase in federal funds rate over the last 8 months of simulation.

The key assumptions used in simulation analysis include the following:

The assumptions are inherently uncertain, and, as a result, the simulation cannot precisely estimate net interest income nor predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, the difference between actual experience and the characteristics assumed, as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

The following Repricing Gap analysis illustrates the cash flows and repricings under a stable rate environment that are fundamental to the simulations used by management to manage the interest rate risk position of the Company:

____________________

Management has made the following assumptions in presenting the above analysis:

(1) Assets and liabilities are generally scheduled according to their earliest repricing dates regardless of their contractual maturities.

(2) Nonaccrual loans and accounts receivable-factoring are included in the noninterest-bearing category.

(3) Fixed-rate mortgage loan maturities are estimated on the current prevailing principal prepayment patterns of compatible mortgage-backed securities.

(4) Delinquent FHA/VA loans are scheduled based on foreclosure and repayment patterns.

(5) The scheduled maturities of mortgage-backed securities and CMOs assume principal prepayment of these securities on dates estimated by management, relying primarily upon current and consensus interest rate forecasts in conjunction with the latest three-month historical prepayment schedules.

(6) Securities are generally scheduled according to their call dates when valued at a premium to par.

(7) Money market deposits, interest-bearing checking and savings deposits that have no contractual maturities are scheduled according to management's best estimate of their repricing in response to changes in market rates. The impact of changes in market rates would be expected to vary by product type and market.

(8) If all money market, interest-bearing checking and savings deposits had been included in the 0-90 Days category above, the cumulative gap as a percentage of total assets would have been negative (17%), (17%) and (14%) for the 0-90 Days, 91-180 Days and 181-365 Days categories and positive 3%, 11%, 13% and 13%, respectively, for the 1-3 Years, 3-5 Years, 5-15 Years and over 15 Years categories at June 30, 2002.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

Union Planters and/or its various subsidiaries are parties to certain pending or threatened civil actions, which are described in Item 3, Part I of the Union Planters' 2001 Form 10-K, Form 8-K dated June 6, 2002 and in Note 20 to Union Planters' consolidated financial statements, in the Proxy and Annual Financial Disclosures. Various other legal proceedings pending against Union Planters and /or its subsidiaries have arisen in the ordinary course of business.

On May 1, 2002, Union Planters Bank, N.A. filed a complaint against Continental Casualty Company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Tennessee (Docket No. is 02-cv-2321-Ma) seeking recovery under the insurance policy it maintains with Continental Casualty Company for the damages resulting from fraud associated with a $25 million mortgage warehouse line of credit extended by UPB. UPB charged off the line of credit in the quarter ended September 30, 2001, and established a $17 million receivable for the estimated recovery under the insurance policy.

While it is impossible to predict with certainty the outcome of any legal proceeding, based upon present information, including evaluations by outside counsel, management is of the opinion that neither Union Planters' financial position, results of operations nor liquidity will be materially affected by the ultimate resolution of pending or threatened legal proceedings. There were no other significant developments during the second quarter of 2002 in any of the pending or threatened actions that affected such opinion.
