EXPLANATORY NOTE REGARDING THIS FORM 10-Q/A

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A amends our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, initially filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on November 7, 2005 (the original Form 10-Q).

This Form 10-Q/A includes our restated consolidated
financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, including the notes thereto. Our financial statements have been restated principally to restate our consolidated statements of cash flows in order to reclassify items related to
origination, repayment and disposition of our portfolio of vehicle leases from operating activities to investing activities. Refer to Note 12, Restatement, in this Form 10-Q/A for further information on the restatement impact for the
quarter ended September 30, 2005.

This Form 10-Q/A only amends and restates Items 1 and 4 of Part I of the original Form 10-Q
and no other items in the original Form 10-Q are amended hereby. The foregoing items have not been updated to reflect other events occurring after the original Form 10-Q or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. In
addition, pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Item 6 of Part II of the original Form 10-Q has been amended to contain currently-dated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as
required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except as noted and per
share data)

NOTE 1. Accounting Policies

The information contained in this report is unaudited and is subject to year-end adjustments. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period classifications. The adjustments had no effect on gross revenues,
gross expenses or net income. In the opinion of management, the information reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004.

The accounting policies of Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries, as applied in the consolidated interim financial statements presented herein,
are substantially the same as those followed on an annual basis as presented on pages 62 through 70 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

In June, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FAS Statement No.3. Statement No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial
statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. Opinion 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the
cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. In addition, Statement No. 154 requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in
accounting estimate that is effected by a change in accounting principle. Opinion 20 previously required that such a change be reported as a change in accounting principle. Statement No. 154 carries forward many provisions of Opinion 20 without
change, including the provisions related to the reporting of a change in accounting estimate, a change in reporting entity, and the correction of an error. Statement No. 154 also carries forward the provisions of Statement No. 3 that
govern reporting accounting changes in interim financial statements. Statement No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Adoption of this statement is not
expected to have an effect on results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved
a new rule that, for public companies, delays the effective date of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123(R)). Under the SECs rule, FAS 123(R) is now effective for public companies for
annual, rather than interim, periods that begin after June 15, 2005. For most public companies the delay will eliminate the comparability issues that would have arisen from adopting FAS 123(R) in the middle of a fiscal year as originally
required. Except for this deferral of the effective date, the guidance in FAS 123(R) is unchanged.

In December 2004, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued FAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. Statement 123(R) requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost
will be measured on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Susquehanna expects to adopt this standard on January 1, 2006, and select the Modified Prospective Application (MPA) as its transition method. It is
estimated that adoption of Statement 123(R) will reduce Susquehannas net income by approximately $536 in 2006.

In March 2005, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Staff Position No. FIN 46(R)-5, Implicit Variable Interests under FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The FSP gives
guidance to a reporting enterprise on determining whether it holds an implicit variable interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) or potential VIE. For entities to which Interpretation 46(R) has been applied, the FSP was to be applied
in the first reporting period beginning after March 3, 2005. Application of this FSP has not had a material effect on Susquehannas financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 2. Acquisitions

Brandywine Benefits Corporation and Rockford
Pensions, LLC

On February 1, 2005, Susquehanna acquired Brandywine Benefits Corporation and Rockford Pensions, LLC (collectively
Brandywine) located in Wilmington, Delaware. Brandywine is a financial planning, consulting and administration firm specializing in retirement benefit plans for small-to-medium-sized businesses. Brandywine Benefits Corporation is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Brandywine Benefits Corp., LLC, which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of VFAM.

The acquisition of
Brandywine is considered immaterial for purposes of the disclosures required by FAS No. 141.

Patriot Bank Corp.

On June 10, 2004, Susquehanna acquired 100% of the outstanding voting shares of Patriot Bank Corp., a financial
services company with total assets in excess of $1.0 billion, and the holding company for Patriot Bank. The results of Patriots operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date.

Presented below is certain unaudited pro forma information for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004, as if
Patriot had been acquired on January 1, 2004. These results combine the historical results of Patriot, including the termination of certain employee benefit programs and costs incurred in connection with the merger, with Susquehannas
consolidated statements of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of purchase accounting adjustments, they are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on the indicated
date.

For the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, average options to purchase 7 and 362
shares, respectively, were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares; and the options were, therefore, antidilutive.

NOTE 7. Stock-Based Compensation

Susquehannas stock-based compensation plan is accounted for using the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and
related Interpretations. Under APB 25, no compensation expense is recognized, as the exercise price of Susquehannas stock options is equal to the fair market value of its common stock on the date of grant.

Pursuant to FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by FAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transitions and Disclosure, disclosure requirements, pro forma net income, and earnings per share are presented in the following table as if compensation cost for stock options was determined under the fair value method and
amortized to expense over the options vesting periods. On March 1, 2005, options to purchase 151 shares of common stock were granted to employees and directors, with an exercise price of $24.95 per share on the date of grant; the options
vested immediately.

|                                                                                                     |  |   |        

In addition, $1,326 was recorded as customer lists relating to the Brandywine
acquisition.

NOTE 10. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

On March 16, 2005, Susquehanna entered into a $219,836 amortizing interest rate swap; and in the third quarter of 2005, Susquehanna entered into two
incremental swaps totaling $81,157. For purposes of Susquehannas consolidated financial statements, the $300,993 amortizing interest rate swaps (the hedging instruments) are designated as cash flow hedges of expected future cash flows
(proceeds) associated with a forecasted sale of auto leases (the hedged forecasted transaction). This transaction is subject to FAS No. 133 (as amended), Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. At
September 30, 2005, the unrealized gain, net of taxes, recorded in other comprehensive income was $272.

Susquehannas risk
management objective and strategy is to mitigate its exposure to changes in interest rates associated with future securitizations of auto leases. Susquehanna is meeting this objective by entering into forward-starting, pay-fixed and receive-LIBOR
interest rate swaps. The swaps are expected to be effective in hedging the risk of changes in expected future cash flows associated with the forecasted sale of auto leases due to changes in the LIBOR swap rate, the designated benchmark interest rate
being hedged, over the term of the hedging relationship.

Since the critical terms of the swap and the hedged transaction match at
inception, and it is probable that the swap counterparty will not default on the swaps, Susquehanna has concluded at inception that the hedging relationship is expected to be highly effective at achieving offsetting changes in cash flows. Throughout
the life of the hedging relationship, both retrospective evaluations and prospective assessments of hedge effectiveness will be based on the hypothetical derivative method and performed at least quarterly. Assuming the hedging relationship qualifies
as highly effective, the actual swaps will then be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value, and accumulated other comprehensive income will be adjusted to a balance that reflects the lesser of either the cumulative change in the fair value of
the actual swaps or the cumulative change in the fair value of a perfect hypothetical swap. At the date of securitization, the balance in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to earnings when the associated gain on
sale from securitization is recognized. At September 30, 2005, the hedge was assessed as prospectively effective.

In June 2005,
Susquehanna entered into two $25,000 interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate risk exposure on $50,000 of variable-rate debt. The risk management objective with respect to this interest rate swap is to hedge the risk of changes in
Susquehannas cash flow attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rate.

Prospective effectiveness evaluations will be performed by
qualitatively assessing on an ongoing basis that the critical terms of the swaps and hedged transactions still match, and will periodically review the credit quality of the swap counterparty to evaluate whether it is probable that the swap
counterparty will not default. At September 30, 2005, the hedges were assessed as effective.

The following table summarizes our derivative financial
instruments at September 30, 2005:

Note 11. Securitization Activity

Since 2001, Susquehanna has sold the beneficial interests in
automobile leases in securitization transactions. In all those securitizations, Susquehanna retained servicing responsibilities and subordinated interests. Susquehanna receives annual servicing fees approximating 1.0% of the outstanding balance and
rights to future cash flows arising after the investors have received the return for which they contracted. Susquehanna recognizes no servicing asset, as servicing income approximates servicing costs. Susquehanna enters into securitization
transactions primarily to achieve low-cost funding for the growth of its auto portfolio, and not primarily to maximize its ongoing servicing fee revenue. Susquehanna monitors its servicing costs to ensure that future costs do not exceed servicing
income. If servicing costs were to exceed servicing income, Susquehanna would record the present value of that liability as an expense.

The investors and the securitization trusts have no recourse to Susquehannas other assets, except retained interests, for failure of debtors to pay when due. Susquehannas retained interests are subordinate to investors
interests. Their value is subject to credit, prepayment, and interest rate risks on the transferred financial assets.

The following table
presents quantitative information about delinquencies, net credit losses, and components of lease sales serviced by Susquehanna, including securitization transactions.

Set forth below is a summary of the fair values of the interest-only strips, key economic
assumptions used to arrive at the fair values, and the sensitivity of the September 30, 2005 fair values to immediate 10% and 20% adverse changes in those assumptions. The sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. Changes
in fair value based on a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on
the fair value of the retained interest is calculated without changing any other assumption: in reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments and
increased credit losses), which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

Note 12. Restatement

In connection with the preparation of Susquehannas Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this Interim Report on Form 10-Q/A, management reconsidered the classification of certain transactions related to the origination,
repayment and disposition of its portfolio of vehicle leases as presented for the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004.

During 2004, Susquehanna
originated leases that were either sold to an off-balance sheet warehouse facility or held in portfolio. Those leases that were originated specifically for sale and sold to the warehouse facility are to be reported as cash flows from an operating
activity. Those leases that were originated and held in portfolio are to be reported as cash flows from investing activities. For the period ended September 30, 2004, Susquehanna did report these transactions consistent with this criteria on
the previously filed Form 10-Q. During the first nine months of 2005, Susquehanna originated leases that it held for sale. Those originations were reported as cash flows from investing activities and are being restated to cash flows from operations.

In consideration for the sale of leases, Susquehanna receives cash and records retained interests in securitized assets, including debt securities and
interest-only strips. For the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, Susquehanna reported the noncash retained interests in securitized assets as cash flows from operating activities offset by cash flows from investing activities in the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These noncash retained interests are being restated to report the noncash recorded interests in the Supplemental Schedule of Noncash Investing Activities as well as reducing proceeds from lease securitizations
for the nine months ending September 30, 2005 in Note 11.

Retained interests in securitized assets represents the rights to future cash flows after the
investors have received the return for which they contracted. For the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, Susquehanna reported these cash flows from retained interests in securitized assets as cash flows from operating activities and are
being restated to cash flows from investing activities.

The following table identifies the restatements made to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
for the periods presented:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.



|(a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
|--- | ------------------------------------------------

The
original Form 10-Q stated that management had performed an evaluation (at the direction and with the participation of Susquehannas Chief Executive Officer and Susquehannas Chief Financial Officer ) of Susquehannas disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and concluded that Susquehannas disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the quarterly period covered by the original Form
10-Q. As a result of the identification of errors relating to the preparation and review of Susquehannas consolidated statements of cash flows included in the original Form 10-Q that required Susquehanna to restate its consolidated financial
statements for the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer reassessed their conclusion and have determined that Susquehannas disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of
that date. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency was a material weakness. As a result, of these findings, management has commenced an internal review of its processes in order to better collect cash flow data related to
lease originations, repayments and dispositions and properly prepare and review the consolidated statements of cash flows and to design a system that will enable Susquehanna to obtain reasonable assurance that the requisite approvals are received
prior to the filing of documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission.



|(b) | Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------

There
were no changes in Susquehannas internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Susquehannas internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period
ended September 30, 2005.
