| |  | our investments in our businesses and in related technology
    could require additional incremental spending, and might not
    produce expected deposit and loan growth and anticipated
    contributions to our earnings;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
|
| |  | general economic or industry conditions could be less favorable
    than expected, resulting in a deterioration in credit quality, a
    change in the allowance for loan and lease losses or a reduced
    demand for credit or fee-based products and services;                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
|
| |  | changes in the domestic interest rate environment could reduce
    net interest income and could increase credit losses;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
|
| |  | the conditions of the securities markets could change, which
    could adversely affect, among other things, the value or credit
    quality of our assets, the availability and terms of funding
    necessary to meet our liquidity needs and our ability to
    originate loans and leases;                                                                                                                                                                                      
|
| |  | changes in the extensive laws, regulations and policies
    governing financial holding companies and their subsidiaries
    could alter our business environment or affect our operations;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
|
| |  | the potential need to adapt to industry changes in information
    technology systems, on which we are highly dependent, could
    present operational issues or require significant capital
    spending;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
|
| |  | competitive pressures could intensify and affect our
    profitability, including as a result of continued industry
    consolidation, the increased availability of financial services
    from non-banks, technological developments such as the internet
    or bank regulatory reform;                                                                                                                                                                                          
|
| |  | acquisitions may result in large one-time charges to income, may
    not produce revenue enhancements or cost savings at levels or
    within time frames originally anticipated and may result in
    unforeseen integration difficulties; and                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
|
| |  | acts or threats of terrorism and actions taken by the United
    States or other governments as a result of such acts or threats,
    including possible military action, could further adversely
    affect business and economic conditions in the United States
    generally and in our principal markets, which could have an
    adverse effect on our financial performance and that of our
    borrowers and on the financial markets and the price of our
    common stock.

| |  | In October 2004, we implemented a deleveraging program under
    which we sold approximately $1.2 billion of securities with
    a weighted average yield of 2.77% and prepaid a similar amount
    of borrowings with a weighted average rate of 4.77%, both of
    which had a duration of approximately 3.5 years. A
    $51.6 million after-tax loss was incurred in connection
    with this program in the fourth quarter. This program is
    expected to improve our annual net interest margin by
    approximately 28 basis points.
|
| |  | We completed the acquisitions of CCBT Financial Companies, Inc.
    and Foxborough Savings Bank on April 30, 2004 and an
    insurance agency on July 1, 2004. Acquisitions continue to
    be an important part of our long-term strategy for growth.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
|
| |  | Net interest income increased 11% in 2004 compared to 2003,
    primarily due to a $2.1 billion increase in average earning
    assets. The net interest margin increased by 6 basis points
    in 2004 versus 2003 primarily due to the 9% increase in earning
    assets.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
|
| |  | Noninterest income from deposit services, insurance agency
    commissions, merchant and electronic banking services, wealth
    management services and investment planning services increased
    by $36.9 million (or 16%) in the aggregate, due in part to
    acquisitions. This aggregate increase was offset by a decrease
    in net securities gains of $50.2 million (primarily related
    to the balance sheet deleveraging program) and a decrease in
    other noninterest income of $14.5 million. See Table 6for details.    
|
| |  | During 2004, we recorded strong growth in commercial real estate
    loans, commercial business loans and leases and consumer loans
    and leases. During the year, commercial business loans and
    leases increased 20%, commercial real estate loans increased 13%
    and consumer loans increased 11%. Excluding the effects of
    acquisitions, total average loans and leases increased 8%.                                                                                                                                        
|
| |  | Asset quality remained strong despite an increase in
    nonperforming assets of $18 million at December 31,
    2004 as compared to December 31, 2003, which was
    attributable to increases in commercial real estate and
    commercial business loans and leases.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
|
| |  | Total deposits increased by 7% during 2004. Excluding
    acquisitions, total average deposits increased
    $554 million, or 3%, as average checking deposits increased
    16% and savings and money market deposits increased 6%, while
    certificates of deposit declined 11%.
