Explanatory Note



This Amendment to Form 10-Q (this Amendment) is being filed by Provident Bankshares Corporation (the Corporation) to
amend its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on August 9, 2005 (the Initial Form 10-Q). As previously reported in
the Corporations Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2005, this Amendment is required due to the restatement of financial statements included in the Initial Form 10-Q related to corrections of errors related to the
Corporations accounting for derivatives under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133). As a result of errors in the application
of the short-cut method, the Corporation was precluded from applying hedge accounting to various derivative instruments as described in Note 2. This Amendment restates unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at and for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. For information regarding the restatement, see Note 2 to our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein. This Amendment includes a restatement which changes Part I 
Items 1, 2 and 4, including related changes to the disclosures in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. This Amendment also includes changes in Controls and Procedures to
reflect managements revised assessment of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2005.



Except as otherwise specifically noted, all information contained herein is as of June 30, 2005 and does not reflect any events or changes that have occurred
subsequent to that date. We are not required to and we have not updated any forward-looking statements previously included in the Initial Form 10-Q.

time by Provident Bankshares Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation) (including, without limitation, the Corporations 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders) and oral communications made from time to time by authorized

results of operations and business of the Corporation, including earnings growth determined using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); revenue growth in retail banking, lending and other areas; origination volume in the

sales; tangible capital generation; market share; expense levels; and other business operations and strategies. For these statements, the Corporation claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the PSLRA.



The Corporation cautions you that a number of important factors could cause
actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the factors identified in the Corporations Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2004 under the headings Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors, prevailing economic conditions, either nationally or locally in some or all areas in which the Corporation conducts business or conditions
in the securities markets or the banking industry; changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate values and competition, which can materially affect, among other things, consumer banking revenues, revenues from sales on
non-deposit investment products, origination levels in the Corporations lending businesses and the level of defaults, losses and prepayments on loans made by the Corporation, whether held in portfolio or sold in the secondary markets; changes
in the quality or composition of the loan or investment portfolios; the Corporations ability to successfully integrate any assets, liabilities, customers, systems and management personnel the Corporation may acquire into its operations and its
ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames; the Corporations timely development of new and competitive products or services in a changing environment, and the acceptance of such products or
services by customers; operational issues and/or capital spending necessitated by the potential need to adapt to industry changes in information technology systems, on which it is highly dependent; changes in accounting principles, policies, and
guidelines; changes in any applicable law, rule, regulation or practice with respect to tax or legal issues; risks and uncertainties related to mergers and related integration and restructuring activities; conditions in the securities markets or the
banking industry; changes in the quality or composition of the investment portfolio; litigation liabilities, including costs, expenses, settlements and judgments; or the outcome of other matters before regulatory agencies, whether pending or
commencing in the future; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological factors affecting the Corporations operations, pricing, products and services. Additionally, the timing and occurrence or non-occurrence of
events may be subject to circumstances beyond the Companys control. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which are made as of the date of this report, and, except as may be required by
applicable law or regulation, the Corporation assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Provident Bankshares Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements -
Unaudited

June 30, 2005



NOTE 1SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Provident Bankshares Corporation (the Corporation), a Maryland corporation, is the bank holding company for Provident Bank (the Bank), a Maryland
chartered stock commercial bank. The Bank serves individuals and businesses through a network of banking offices and ATMs in Maryland, Virginia, and southern York County, Pennsylvania. Related financial services are offered through its wholly owned
subsidiaries. Securities brokerage, investment management and related insurance services are available through Provident Investment Company and leases through Court Square Leasing and Provident Lease Corporation.



The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) and prevailing practices within the banking industry for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required for complete
financial statements and prevailing practices within the banking industry. The following summary of significant accounting policies of the Corporation is presented to assist the reader in understanding the financial and other data presented in this
report. Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2005. For further information, refer to
the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Corporations Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).



Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation



The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the
Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Provident Bank and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Results of operations from purchased companies are included from the
date of merger. Assets and liabilities of purchased companies are stated at estimated fair values at the date of merger.



Certain prior years amounts in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used for the current
period. These reclassifications have no effect on stockholders equity or net income as previously reported or restated.



Use of Estimates



The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities for the reporting periods. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other factors and
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management
evaluates estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to the allowance for loan losses, non-accrual loans, other real estate owned, goodwill and intangible assets, other than temporary impairment of investment securities, pension and
post-retirement benefits, asset prepayment rates, stock-based compensation, derivative positions, recourse liabilities, litigation and income taxes. Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments
and estimates used in preparation of its Condensed Consolidated financial statements: allowance for loan losses, other than temporary impairment of investment securities, derivative financial instruments, goodwill and intangible assets, asset
prepayment rates and income taxes. Each estimate and its financial impact, to the extent significant to financial results, is discussed in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or in the notes to the unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements as included in the Corporations 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. It is at least reasonably possible that each of the Corporations estimates could change in the near term or that actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, resulting in a change that could be material to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Changes in Accounting Principles



In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee (AcSEC) issued Statement of Position 03-3, Accounting for
Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer (SOP 03-3). SOP 03-3 is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. SOP03-3 addresses accounting for differences between contractual
cash flows and cash flows expected to be collected from an investors initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. SOP 03-3 does not apply to
loans originated by the Bank. The Corporation did not acquire any assets in 2005 that were within the scope of SOP 03-3.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R (a revision of SFAS No. 123) Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS
No. 123R) effective for interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. In April 2005, the SEC deferred the effective date of the provisions of SFAS No. 123R until the beginning of the first annual period beginning
after June 15, 2005. Accordingly, the Corporation will adopt SFAS No. 123R beginning January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 123R requires companies to recognize the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation
issued to employees as a cost of employee services in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting
period). As of the required effective date, the Corporation intends to use the modified prospective method as defined in SFAS No. 123R. Under this method, awards that are granted, modified or settled after the date of adoption should be
measured and accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Unvested awards that were granted prior to the effective date should be valued in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Compensation expense must be recognized in the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income subsequent to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R. Management has evaluated the potential impact of SFAS No. 123R and determined that it would result in additional compensation expense of approximately
$1.2 million in 2006 for options granted in 2005.



In May 2005, the FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (SFAS No. 154), which is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in years beginning after
December 15, 2005. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 will not have any impact on the results of operations of the Corporation.



Derivative Financial Instruments



The Corporation uses various derivative financial instruments as part of its interest rate
risk management strategy to mitigate the exposure to changes in market interest rates. The derivative financial instruments used separately or in combination are interest rate swaps, caps and floors. Derivative financial instruments are required to
be measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or liabilities in the financial statements. Fair value represents the payment the Corporation would receive or pay if the item were sold or bought in a current transaction. Fair values are
generally based on market quotes. The accounting for changes in fair value (gains or losses) of a derivative is dependent on whether the derivative is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting. In accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 133,  Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133), the Corporation assigns derivatives to one of these categories at the purchase date: fair value
hedge, cash flow hedge or non-designated hedge. SFAS No. 133 requires an assessment of the expected and ongoing hedge effectiveness of any derivative designated a fair value hedge or cash flow hedge. Derivatives are included in other assets and
other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Condition.



Fair Value Hedges For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, the derivative instrument and related hedge item are marked-to-market through the related interest income or expense, as applicable,
except for the ineffective portion which is recorded in non-interest income.



Cash Flow Hedges  For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, mark-to-market adjustments are recorded net of income taxes as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in
Stockholders Equity, except for the ineffective portion which is recorded in non-interest income. Amounts recorded in OCI are recognized into earnings concurrent with the hedged items impact on earnings.

Non-Designated Derivatives Certain economic hedges are not designated as cash flow or as
fair value hedges for accounting purposes. As a result, changes in the fair value are recorded in non-interest income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Interest income or expense related to non-designated derivatives is also
recorded in non-interest income.



All qualifying relationships between hedging
instruments and hedged items are fully documented by the Corporation. Risk management objectives, strategies and the projected effectiveness of the chosen derivatives to hedge specific risks are also documented. At inception of the hedging
relationship and periodically as required under SFAS No. 133, the Corporation evaluates the effectiveness of its hedging instruments. For hedges qualifying for short-cut treatment at inception, the ongoing effectiveness testing
includes a review of the hedge and the hedged item to determine if the hedge continues to qualify for short-cut treatment. An assumption of no hedge ineffectiveness is allowed for derivatives qualifying for short-cut treatment. For all other
derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting, a quantitative assessment of the effectiveness of the hedge is required at each reporting date. The Corporation performs effectiveness testing quarterly for all of its hedges. The Corporation uses
benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR to hedge the interest rate risk associated with interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities. Using benchmark rates and complying with specific criteria set forth in SFAS No. 133, the Corporation has
concluded that for qualifying hedges, changes in fair value or cash flows that are attributable to risks being hedged will be highly effective at the hedges inception and on an ongoing basis.



When it is determined that a derivative is not, or ceases to be effective as a hedge, the
Corporation discontinues hedge accounting prospectively. When a fair value hedge is discontinued due to ineffectiveness, the Corporation continues to carry the derivative on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Condition at its fair value, as a
non-designated hedge but discontinues marking-to-market the hedged asset or liability for changes in fair value. Any previous mark-to-market adjustments recorded to the hedged item are amortized over the remaining life of the asset or liability. All
ineffective portions of fair value hedges are reported in and affect net income immediately. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued due to termination of the derivative, the Corporation continues to carry the previous mark-to-market adjustments in
OCI and recognizes the amount into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects earnings. If the cash flow hedge is discontinued due to ineffectiveness, the derivative would be considered a non-designated hedge and
would continue to be marked-to-market in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Condition as an asset or liability. Additionally, the Condensed Consolidation Statements of Income would record the mark-to-market through current period earnings and
not through OCI.



Counter-party credit risk associated with derivatives is
controlled by dealing with well-established brokers that are highly rated by credit rating agencies and by establishing exposure limits for individual counter-parties. Market risk on interest rate swaps is minimized by using these instruments as
hedges and by continually monitoring the positions to ensure ongoing effectiveness. Credit risk is controlled by entering into bilateral collateral agreements with brokers, in which the parties pledge collateral to indemnify the counter-party in the
case of default. The Corporations hedging activities and strategies are monitored by the Banks Asset / Liability Committee (ALCO) as part of its oversight of the treasury function.



Stock-Based Compensation



The Corporation may grant employees and/or directors stock-based compensation in the form of
stock options or restricted stock priced at the fair market value on the grant date.



The Company applies the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including
FASB Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation (FIN No. 44), an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, to account for its fixed-plan stock options. Under this
method, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. FASB Statement 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and FASB Statement
No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure, and amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair-value-based method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation plans. As permitted by existing accounting standards, the Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting described above, and has adopted only the disclosure requirements of
Statement 123, as amended.

The Corporation recognized pre-tax compensation expense of $324 thousand relating to restricted stock grants for the six
months ended June 30, 2005. During the second quarter of 2005, as part of a voluntary separation agreement, the Corporation modified the terms of previously awarded stock options to an executive who left the Corporation. Under the provisions of
FIN No. 44, these stock options were remeasured at the intrinsic value as of the date of separation. Accordingly, the Corporation immediately recognized compensation expense of $525 thousand.



The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net income and earnings per share if
the Corporation had applied the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) to stock-based compensation for the periods indicated.

Pro forma amounts may not be
representative of future expense since the estimated fair value of stock options is amortized to expense over the various vesting periods and additional options may be granted in future periods. Beginning in 2006, under SFAS No. 123R the
Corporation will be required to recognize compensation expense related to the fair value of stock options as they vest, which will reduce net income.



The weighted average fair value of all of the options granted during the periods indicated have been estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with
the following assumptions:

Effective April 1, 2005, the
Board of Directors approved the acceleration, by one year, of the vesting of all the currently outstanding options to purchase 766,575 shares of the Corporations common stock granted prior to 2005 including those options held by certain
members of senior management. This effectively reduces the three year vesting period on these options from three to two years. The acceleration of the vesting will result in an aggregate compensation expense of

$142,000 ($79,000 in 2005, $48,000 in 2006, $15,000 in 2007) over the modified vesting periods. The amount that would
have been expensed for the unvested options granted prior to 2005 had the Corporation not accelerated the vesting would have been approximately $1.8 million over the original vesting periods (i.e. 2006 and 2007). Stock options granted in 2005 have
an eight year life and vest over a four year period. The other terms of each of the option grants remained unchanged.



NOTE 2  RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY REPORTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



On November 7, 2005, management of Provident Bankshares Corporation (Provident or the Corporation) determined that Providents financial
statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, should no longer be relied upon as a result of the accounting treatment applied by Provident to interest rate swaps associated with Providents interest rate risk
hedging program. Subsequently, management made a similar determination with respect to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004.



As a result, the Corporation has restated the financial statements for quarters ended June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, and for the year ended December 31,
2004. The restatements are primarily the result of corrections of errors related to the Corporations accounting for derivatives under SFAS No. 133. Historically, Provident has entered into various interest rate swaps to hedge the interest
rate risk inherent in certain of its brokered Certificates of Deposits (CDs), FHLB Borrowings (FHLB Borrowings) and Junior Subordinated Debentures (Junior Subordinated Debentures) (which are owned by trusts which
issue trust preferred securities with identical terms to outside third parties). From the inception of hedge accounting, Provident has applied the short-cut method of fair value and cash flow hedge accounting under SFAS No.133 to the
swaps associated with CDs, FHLB Borrowings and Junior Subordinated Debentures transactions, allowing Provident to assume no hedge ineffectiveness for these derivatives. Provident has determined that the CD swaps, a portion of the FHLB swaps, and the
swaps associated with the debt transaction did not qualify for the short-cut method in the first and second quarter of 2005 and for calendar year ended December 31, 2004. The CD swaps did not qualify for short-cut application because a related
CD broker placement fee was determined (in retrospect) to be imbedded in the swap contracts, causing the swap to have a value other than zero at inception. A portion of the FHLB swaps did not qualify because the maturity of the swaps exceed the
maturity of the FHLB Borrowings. Regarding the debt swaps, the swaps were documented as hedging the trust preferred securities, and were not redesignated as hedging the Junior Subordinated Debentures upon adoption of FIN 46R. As a result of these
errors in the application of the short cut method, the Corporation is precluded from applying hedge accounting to these derivative instruments for these periods. The financial results beginning January 1, 2004 have therefore been restated for
the affected derivatives and their related hedged items. In addition to the derivative accounting issues, the Corporation will also correct the accounting for severance pay relating to an executive separation agreement with an executive who departed
from the Corporation as of June 30, 2005. Upon departure, the terms of the stock options for the executive were modified, which required a remeasurement of the intrinsic value of the options and a corresponding recognition of compensation
expense, which had not been previously recognized.



Management believes the
financial statement impact of applying the long-haul method of effectiveness testing using SFAS No. 133 and the results under the short-cut method would have indicated no material difference in the effectiveness of the
swaps. However, hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 is not allowed for the affected periods because the hedge documentation required for the long-haul method was not in place at the inception of the hedges. Fair value hedge
accounting allows a company to record changes in the fair value of a hedged item (in this case, the brokered CDs and the Junior Subordinated Debentures) as an adjustment to income that offsets the fair value adjustment of the related interest rate
swaps. Cash flow hedge accounting allows a company to record changes in the fair value, net of income taxes, as a component of Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders Equity. Amounts recorded in OCI are recognized into earnings concurrent
with the hedged items impact on earnings. Under fair value and cash flow hedge accounting, net cash flows associated with the swapped interest payments are included in interest expense.



Elimination of hedge accounting reverses fair value adjustments made on the brokered CDs so
that they are carried at par, net of the unamortized balance of the CD broker placement fee. The net swap interest rate payments were reclassified from an adjustment to interest expense on the brokered CDs to non-interest income. The CD broker
placement fees, which were incorporated into the swap, adjusted the par amount of the brokered CDs and will be amortized through the maturity date of the related CDs as an adjustment to the rate paid. The interest expense on the FHLB Borrowings was

treated in a manner similar to the CD interest expense. Hedge accounting for cash flow hedges allows a company to record
the effective portion of the hedge into other comprehensive income, net of tax. Elimination of the hedge accounting reversed the fair value adjustments recorded to OCI and recorded the fair value adjustment directly to non-interest income in the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.



Prior to January 1, 2004,
the interest expense on trust preferred securities was netted with the interest payments received from the designated swaps. However, the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46  Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN
46) on January 1, 2004 and the resultant deconsolidation of the trusts which issued the securities, required redesignation of the swaps to the Junior Subordinated Debentures issued by the Corporation in order to continue to apply hedge
accounting. The lack of documented redesignation resulted in the elimination of hedge accounting for the Junior Subordinated Debentures. The fair value basis adjustment of the trust preferred securities at the adoption date, was deferred as a basis
adjustment to the Junior Subordinated Debentures. This basis adjustment is being amortized into interest expense over the life of the Junior Subordinated Debentures as a result of the elimination of hedge accounting. Fair value adjustments on the
swaps subsequent to the date of adoption of FIN 46 have been reflected as derivative gains (losses).



Accordingly, the financial statements for first and second quarters of 2005 and the year ended December 31, 2004 have been restated to reflect the required accounting treatment. The Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 reflect these adjustments. The six months ended amounts reflect the impact of restating the first and second quarters of 2005 and 2004. Adjustments to
the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for amounts previously reported affect interest expense on deposits and long-term debt through the reversal of the swap income that offset interest expense on the brokered CDs, FHLB Borrowings and the
Junior Subordinated Debentures, affect non-interest income for the fair value adjustments related to the associated swaps and affect the net cash settlements on the swaps, and affect the related tax impact of the respective adjustments. The
severance adjustment increased salaries and benefits costs in the second quarter of 2005 by $1.1 million.

NOTE 3BUSINESS COMBINATION



On April 30, 2004, the Corporation acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares of Southern Financial Bancorp, Inc.
(Southern Financial), headquartered in Warrenton, Virginia, which was the holding company for Southern Financial Bank. Southern Financial had previously completed the acquisition of Essex Bancorp, Inc., based in Norfolk, Virginia.
Southern Financial operated 33 banking offices in the northern Virginia counties of Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William; as well as Richmond, Charlottesville and the Tidewater areas.



Southern Financial was merged with and into the Corporation. Southern Financial shareholders received 1.0875 shares of the
Corporations common stock and $11.125 in cash for each Southern Financial share outstanding. As a result, Southern Financials shareholders received 8.2 million shares of the Corporations common stock amounting to $251.3
million and $83.8 million in cash, for an aggregate purchase price of $335.1 million. The value of the shares issued was based on the average market closing price of the Corporations common stock from October 29, 2003 through
November 6, 2003.



The following table summarizes the fair values of the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Southern Financial at the merger date. Adjustments to the initial allocation of the purchase price were due to final settlement of asset dispositions, evaluation of tax matters and receipt of other
information relating to the valuation of contingencies.

The merger with Southern Financial
resulted in the recognition of $261.3 million of intangible assets, of which $12.8 million was allocated to a deposit-based intangible. The remaining intangible was allocated to goodwill.



The results of operations from Southern Financial have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of
merger.

At June 30, 2005, a net
unrealized after-tax loss of $1.5 million on the securities portfolio was reflected in net accumulated other comprehensive loss. This compared to a net unrealized after-tax loss of $13.6 million and a net unrealized after-tax gain of $2.2 million at
June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004, respectively.



During the third
quarter of 2004, the Corporation transferred $108 million in securities available for sale to securities held to maturity. The unrealized gains of $7.4 million associated with these securities included in net accumulated other comprehensive loss at
the date of transfer will continue to be reflected in stockholders equity and be reflected as a premium. Both the premium and the amount reflected in net accumulated other comprehensive loss are amortized over the remaining life of the
transferred securities. The amortization is determined using the interest method and results in equal and offsetting amounts being recorded in interest income, resulting in no impact to net income.

##### Table of Contents

Management reviews the investment portfolio on a periodic basis to determine the cause of declines in the fair value of
each security. Thorough evaluations of the causes of the unrealized losses are performed to determine whether the impairment is temporary or other than temporary in nature. Considerations such as recoverability of invested amount over a reasonable
period of time, the length of time the security is in a loss position and receipt of amounts contractually due, for example, are applied in determining other than temporary impairment. At June 30, 2005, the unrealized losses contained within
the Corporations investment portfolio were considered temporary because the declines in fair value were due to changes in market interest rates, not in estimated cash flows of the underlying debt securities.

1 and 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Corporations Form 10-K/A as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004.

NOTE 11DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS



Fair value hedges that meet the criteria for effectiveness have changes in the fair value of the derivative and the designated hedged item
recognized in earnings. At and during all periods presented, the derivatives designated as fair value hedges were determined to be effective. Accordingly, the designated hedges and the associated hedged items were marked to fair value by an equal
and offsetting amount of $27 thousand and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Cash flow hedges have the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative recorded in accumulated other
comprehensive loss. For six months ending June 30, 2005, the Corporation recorded an increase in the fair value of derivatives of $269 thousand compared to an increase of $1.7 million for the same period in 2004, net of taxes, in accumulated
other comprehensive loss to reflect the effective portion of cash flow hedges. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss are recognized into earnings concurrent with the impact of the hedged item on earnings. For the six months ended
June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Corporation had no ineffective hedges.



Non-designated derivatives are marked to market and the gains or losses are recorded in non-interest income at the end of each reporting period. For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Corporation recorded a pre-tax gain
of $3.9 million and a pre-tax gain of $4.2 million, respectively, to reflect the increase or decrease in value of the non-designated interest rate swaps for the quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Corporation recorded
a pre-tax gain of $101 thousand and a pre-tax gain of $476 thousand, respectively.

On March 31, 2005, the
Corporation announced that the pension plan will be frozen for new entrants. Employees who are already participants in the plan will not be affected by this change. Also on March 31, 2005, the Corporation communicated to retirees under the age
of 65 currently receiving postretirement health benefits that these benefits will be eliminated and no longer offered, effective January 1, 2006. This action resulted in the reversal of the actuarially determined liability of $1.6 million at
March 31, 2005.

##### Table of Contents

No contributions were made to the qualified pension plan in the six months ended June 30, 2005. For the six months
ended June 30, 2004 the Corporation contributed $5.0 million to the qualified pension plan. The minimum required contribution in 2005 for the qualified plan is estimated to be zero. At June 30, 2005, the maximum deductible contribution
under the Internal Revenue Code was $4.9 million. The decision to contribute the maximum amount is dependent on other factors including the actual investment performance of plan assets. Given these uncertainties, the Corporation is not able to
reliably estimate the maximum deductible contribution or the amount that will be contributed in 2005 to the qualified plan. For the unfunded non-qualified pension and postretirement benefit plans, the Corporation will contribute the minimum required
amount in 2005, which is equal to the benefits paid under the plans.

Providents principal business is to acquire deposits from individuals and businesses and to use these deposits to
fund loans to individuals and businesses. Provident focuses on providing its products and services to three segments of customers  individuals, small businesses and middle market businesses. The Bank offers consumer and commercial banking
products and services through the Consumer and Commercial Banking groups. Provident also offers related financial services through wholly owned subsidiaries. Securities brokerage, investment management and related insurance services are available
through Provident Investment Company (PIC) and leases through Court Square Leasing and Provident Lease Corporation.



Providents key business strategies provide it with a unique opportunity in its marketplace. An overview of these strategies are discussed below:



| |  | Maximize Providents position as the right size bank in the marketplace.Providents position as the second largest bank headquartered in Maryland provides a unique
opportunity as the right size bank in its footprint. The Bank provides the service of a community bank combined with the convenience and wide array of products and services that a strong regional bank offers. In addition, the 62 in-store
banking offices throughout its footprint reinforce its right size strategy through convenient locations, hours and full line of products and services. Provident currently has 152 banking offices concentrated in the Baltimore-Washington, D.C.
corridor and beyond to Richmond, Virginia. Of the 152 banking offices, 45% are located in the Baltimore metropolitan region and 55% are located in the metro Washington, D.C. and Virginia regions, reflecting the successful development of the Bank
into a highly competitive regional commercial bank. Provident also offers its customers 24-hour banking services through ATMs, telephone banking and the Internet. The network of 244 ATMs enhances the banking office network by providing customers
increased opportunities to access their funds.

| |  | Grow and deepen consumer and small business relationships in Maryland and Virginia. Consumer banking continues to be an important component of the Banks business
strategy. Consumer banking services include a broad array of consumer and small business loan, lease, deposit and investment products offered to consumer and commercial customers through Providents banking office network and ProvidentDirect,
the Banks direct channel sales center. The small business segment is further supported by relationship managers who provide comprehensive business product and sales support to expand existing customer relationships and acquire new clients.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Grow and deepen commercial and real estate relationships in Maryland and Virginia. Commercial banking is the other key component to the Corporations regional presence
in its market area. The Commercial Banking group provides customized banking solutions to middle market commercial and real estate customers. The Bank has an experienced team of loan officers with expertise in real estate and business lending to
companies in various industries in the region. It also has a suite of cash management products managed by responsive account teams that deepen customer relationships through consistently priced deposit based services, responsive service and
maintenance of frequent personal contact with each customer.
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Move from a product driven organization to a customer relationship focused sales culture.The Corporations transition to a customer relationship driven sales culture
requires deepening relationships through cross-selling and the continuing emphasis on retention of valued customers. The Bank has segmented its customers to better understand and anticipate their financial needs and provide Providents sales
force with a targeted approach to customers and prospects. The successful execution of this strategy will be centered on the right size bank commitment - providing the service of a community bank combined with the convenience and wide array of
products and services that a strong regional bank offers.
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Create a high performance culture that focuses on employee development and retention.Provident has always placed a high priority on its employees and has approached employee
development and training with renewed emphasis. Employee development is viewed as a critical part of executing Providents strategy as the right size bank and transforming the Companys sales culture with a focus on the employees
development and approach with Providents customers.

RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY REPORTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



On November 7, 2005, management of Provident Bankshares Corporation
(Provident or the Corporation) determined that Providents financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, should no longer be relied upon as a result of the accounting treatment
applied by Provident to interest rate swaps associated with Providents interest rate risk hedging program. Subsequently, management made a similar determination with respect to the financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2004.



As a result, the Corporation has restated the financial statements for
quarters ended June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, and for the year ended December 31, 2004. The restatements are primarily the result of corrections of errors related to the Corporations accounting for derivatives under SFAS
No. 133. Historically, Provident has entered into various interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate risk inherent in certain of its brokered Certificates of Deposits (CDs), FHLB Borrowings (FHLB Borrowings) and
Junior Subordinated Debentures (Junior Subordinated Debentures) (which are owned by trusts which issue trust preferred securities with identical terms to outside third parties). From the inception of hedge accounting, Provident has
applied the short-cut method of fair value and cash flow hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 to the swaps associated with CDs, FHLB Borrowings and Junior Subordinated Debentures transactions, allowing Provident to assume no hedge
ineffectiveness for these derivatives. Provident has determined that the CD swaps, a portion of the FHLB swaps, and the swaps associated with the debt transaction did not qualify for the short-cut method in the first and second quarter of 2005 and
for calendar year ended December 31, 2004. The CD swaps did not qualify for short-cut application because a related CD broker placement fee was determined (in retrospect) to be imbedded in the swap contracts, causing the swap to have a value
other than zero at inception. A portion of the FHLB swaps did not qualify because the maturity of the swaps exceed the maturity of the FHLB Borrowings. Regarding the debt swaps, the swaps were documented as hedging the trust preferred securities,
and were not redesignated as hedging the Junior Subordinated Debentures upon adoption of FIN 46R. As a result of these errors in the application of the short cut method, the Corporation is precluded from applying hedge accounting to these derivative
instruments for these periods. The financial results beginning January 1, 2004 have therefore been restated for the affected derivatives and their related hedged items. In addition to the derivative accounting issues, the Corporation will also
correct the accounting for severance pay relating to an executive separation agreement with an executive who departed from the Corporation as of June 30, 2005. Upon departure, the terms of the stock options for the executive were modified,
which required a remeasurement of the intrinsic value of the options and a corresponding recognition of compensation expense, which had not been previously recognized.



Management believes the financial statement impact of applying the long-haul method of effectiveness testing using SFAS
No. 133 and the results under the short-cut method would have indicated no material difference in the effectiveness of the swaps. However, hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 is not allowed for the affected periods because the
hedge documentation required for the long-haul method was not in place at the inception of the hedges. Fair value hedge accounting allows a company to record changes in the fair value of a hedged item (in this case, the brokered CDs and
the Junior Subordinated Debentures) as an adjustment to income that offsets the fair value adjustment of the related interest rate swaps. Cash flow hedge accounting allows a company to record changes in the fair value, net of income taxes, as a
component of Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders Equity. Amounts recorded in OCI are recognized into earnings concurrent with the hedged items impact on earnings. Under fair value and cash flow hedge accounting, net cash flows
associated with the swapped interest payments are included in interest expense.



Elimination of hedge accounting reverses fair value adjustments made on the brokered CDs so that they are carried at par, net of the unamortized balance of the CD broker placement fee. The net swap interest rate payments were reclassified
from an adjustment to interest expense on the brokered CDs to non-interest income. The CD broker placement fees, which were incorporated into the swap, adjusted the par amount of the brokered CDs and will be amortized through the maturity date of
the related CDs as an adjustment to the rate paid. The interest expense on the FHLB Borrowings was treated in a manner similar to the CD interest expense. Hedge accounting for cash flow hedges allows a company to record the effective portion of the
hedge into other comprehensive income, net of tax. Elimination of the hedge accounting reversed the fair value adjustments recorded to OCI and recorded the fair value adjustment directly to non-interest income in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Income.

Prior to January 1, 2004, the interest expense on trust preferred securities was netted with the interest payments
received from the designated swaps. However, the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46  Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46) on January 1, 2004 and the resultant deconsolidation of the trusts which
issued the securities, required redesignation of the swaps to the Junior Subordinated Debentures issued by the Corporation in order to continue to apply hedge accounting. The lack of documented redesignation resulted in the elimination of hedge
accounting for the Junior Subordinated Debentures. The fair value basis adjustment of the trust preferred securities at the adoption date, was deferred as a basis adjustment to the Junior Subordinated Debentures. This basis adjustment is being
amortized into interest expense over the life of the Junior Subordinated Debentures as a result of the elimination of hedge accounting. Fair value adjustments on the swaps subsequent to the date of adoption of FIN 46 have been reflected as
derivative gains (losses).



Accordingly, the financial statements for first and
second quarters of 2005 and the year ended December 31, 2004 have been restated to reflect the required accounting treatment. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and
June 30, 2004 reflect these adjustments. The six months ended amounts reflect the impact of restating the first and second quarters of 2005 and 2004. Adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for amounts previously reported
affect interest expense on deposits and long-term debt through the reversal of the swap income that offset interest expense on the brokered CDs, FHLB Borrowings and the Junior Subordinated Debentures, affect non-interest income for the fair value
adjustments related to the associated swaps and affect the net cash settlements on the swaps, and affect the related tax impact of the respective adjustments. The severance adjustment increased salaries and benefits costs in the second quarter of
2005 by $1.1 million.



FINANCIAL REVIEW



The principal objective of this Financial Review is to provide an overview of the financial
condition and results of operations of Provident Bankshares Corporation and its subsidiaries for the periods indicated. This discussion and tabular presentations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes as well as the other information herein.



Discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation, which are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. Management evaluates estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to the allowance for loan losses, non-accrual loans, other real estate owned, goodwill and intangible assets, other than temporary impairment of investment
securities, pension and post-retirement benefits, asset prepayment rates, stock-based compensation, derivative positions, recourse liabilities, litigation and income taxes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other
factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.



Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of its Condensed Consolidated financial statements: allowance for loan losses, other than temporary
impairment of investment securities, derivative financial instruments goodwill and intangible assets, asset prepayment rates and income taxes. Each estimate and its financial impact, to the extent significant to financial results, is discussed in
the notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. It is at least reasonably possible that each of the Corporations estimates could change in the near term and the effect of the change could be material to the unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.



FINANCIAL CONDITION



The financial condition of the Corporation reflects the continued balance
sheet transition towards growing loans and deposits in the Banks core business segments. The expanded market, as a direct result of the Southern Financial merger, has augmented the number of banking relationship opportunities in the
Corporations key markets of Baltimore, Washington, D.C. and Richmond. The expansion led to increases in average loans and deposits of 9% and 3%,

respectively, over the second quarter of 2004. At June 30, 2005, total assets were $6.4 billion as compared to $6.6 billion at December 31, 2004.
The basis for financial comparison includes the impact of the Southern Financial merger for two months of the second quarter of 2004 and the entire second quarter of 2005.



Lending



Total average loan balances increased to $3.6 billion in second quarter 2005, an increase of $282 million, or 9%, from second quarter 2004 (prior year
quarter). The following table summarizes the composition of the Banks average loans for the periods indicated.

The 9% increase in average loans was
driven by an increase of $200 million in average home equity loans that more than offset planned reductions in acquired residential and marine loans of $109 million and $22 million, respectively, and reductions in originated residential mortgage and
other consumer loans of $20 million and $14 million, respectively. The home equity loan suite of products has been a key component of the Banks strategy to deepen its consumer relationships. This sales focus resulted in the $200 million, or
35%, increase in home equity average balances, continuing the growth of $185 million, or 48%, that occurred in second quarter 2004. Commercial banking is the other key component to the Corporations regional presence in its market area. Average
commercial business and real estate loans increased 14% and 19%, respectively, compared to the 2004 quarter. All of the real estate categories, including commercial mortgage loans and commercial and residential construction loans, posted increases
during the quarter, reflecting strong regional demand. The increase in the commercial loan portfolios over the 2004 second quarter also reflects the benefits derived from Southern Financials focus on commercial banking in Virginia. The result
is a balanced mix of revenue sources between the two business segments with $1.8 billion, or 51%, in consumer loans, and $1.7 billion, or 49%, in commercial loans. Geographically, average loan balances of $1.3 billion originated in the Washington,
D.C. and Richmond metropolitan regions represented 36% of total average loans in second quarter 2005.

Credit conditions in second quarter
2005 reflect continuation of the asset quality within the Corporations loan portfolios. Non-performing assets were $24.2 million at June 30, 2005, a decline of $3.1 million from the level at December 31, 2004. The decline in
non-performing assets was due to the resolution of non-performing commercial business, commercial real estate construction and originated residential loans during the quarter. Non-performing commercial business loans include $1.2 million of loans
that have U.S. government guarantees.



The level of non-performing assets to
total loans was 0.67% at June 30, 2005 compared to 0.77% at December 31, 2004. The level of 90-day delinquent loans also declined during the quarter, decreasing $5.1 million, or 42%, to $7.1 million from the level at December 31,
2004. No assurance can be given regarding the level of non-performing assets in the future.



The Corporation maintains an allowance for loan losses (the allowance), which is intended to be managements best estimate of probable inherent losses in the outstanding loan portfolio. The allowance
is reduced by actual credit losses and is increased by the provision for loan losses and recoveries of previous losses. The provisions for loan losses are charges to earnings to bring the total allowance to a level considered necessary by
management.

##### Table of Contents

The allowance is based on managements continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio. This process provides
an allowance consisting of two components, allocated and unallocated. To arrive at the allocated component of the allowance, the Corporation combines estimates of the allowances needed for loans analyzed individually and on a pooled basis. The
allocated component of the allowance is supplemented by an unallocated component.



The portion of the allowance that is allocated to individual internally criticized and non-accrual loans is determined by estimating the inherent loss on each problem credit after giving consideration to the value of underlying collateral.
Management emphasizes loan quality and close monitoring of potential problem credits. Credit risk identification and review processes are utilized in order to assess and monitor the degree of risk in the loan portfolio. The Corporations
lending and credit administration staff are charged with reviewing the loan portfolio and identifying changes in the economy or in a borrowers circumstances which may affect the ability to repay debt or the value of pledged collateral. A loan
classification and review system exists that identifies those loans with a higher than normal risk of uncollectibility. Each commercial loan is assigned a grade based upon an assessment of the borrowers financial capacity to service the debt
and the presence and value of collateral for the loan.



In addition to being
used to categorize risk, the Banks internal ten-point risk rating system is used to determine the allocated allowance for the commercial portfolio. Reserve factors, based on the actual loss history for a 5-year period for criticized loans, are
assigned. If the factor, based on loss history for classified credits is lower than the minimum established factor, the higher factor is applied. For loans with satisfactory risk profiles, the factors are based on the rating profile of the portfolio
and the consequent historic losses of bonds with equivalent ratings.



For the
consumer portfolios, the determination of the allocated allowance is conducted at an aggregate, or pooled, level. Each quarter, historical rolling loss rates for homogenous pools of loans in these portfolios provide the basis for the allocated
reserve. For any portfolio where the Bank lacks sufficient historic experience, industry loss rates are used. If recent history is not deemed to reflect the inherent losses existing within a portfolio, older historic loss rates during a period of
similar economic or market conditions are used.



The Banks credit
administration group adjusts the indicated loss rates based on qualitative factors. Factors that are considered in adjusting loss rates include risk characteristics, credit concentration trends and general economic conditions, including job growth
and unemployment rates. For commercial and real estate portfolios, additional factors include the level and trend of watched and criticized credits within those portfolios; historic loss rates, commercial real estate vacancy, absorption and rental
rates; and the number and volume of syndicated credits, construction loans, or other portfolio segments deemed to carry higher levels of risk. Upon completion of the qualitative adjustments, the overall allowance is allocated to the components of
the portfolio based on the adjusted loss factors.



The unallocated component of
the allowance exists to mitigate the imprecision inherent in managements estimates of expected credit losses and includes its determination of the amounts necessary for concentrations, economic uncertainties and other subjective factors that
may not have been fully considered in the allocated allowance. The relationship of the unallocated component to the total allowance may fluctuate from period to period. Although management has allocated the majority of the allowance to specific loan
categories, the evaluation of the allowance is considered in its entirety.



Lending management meets at least quarterly with executive management to review the credit quality of the loan portfolios and to evaluate the allowance. The Corporation has an internal risk analysis and review staff that continuously
reviews loan quality and reports the results of its reviews to executive management and the Board of Directors. Such reviews also assist management in establishing the level of the allowance.



Management believes that it uses the best information available to make determinations about
the allowance and that it has established its existing allowance in accordance with GAAP. If circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making determinations, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary and results of
operations could be affected. Because events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that increases to the allowance will not be necessary should the quality of any loans deteriorate as a
result of the factors discussed above.

The FDIC examines the Bank periodically and, accordingly, as part of this exam, the allowance is reviewed for adequacy
utilizing specific guidelines. Based upon their review, the regulators may from time to time require reserves in addition to those previously provided.



At June 30, 2005, the allowance was $46.6 million, or 1.29% as a percentage of total loans outstanding, compared to an allowance at December 31, 2004 of $46.2
million, or 1.30% as a percentage of total loans outstanding. The allowance coverage increased to 207% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2005 compared to 180% at December 31, 2004. Portfolio-wide net charge-offs represented 0.14% of
average loans in second quarter 2005, an improvement from 0.25% in second quarter 2004 and 0.24% in first quarter 2005. Net charge-offs for the quarter were favorably impacted by a single commercial recovery of approximately $600 thousand. Exclusive
of this recovery, net charge-offs were 0.21% of average loans, which remains consistent with historical levels.

Average deposits increased $113
million, or 3%, in second quarter 2005 over the same quarter last year. Demand accounts represented the largest increase of $139 million, or 11%, over the prior years quarter. Average brokered deposits increased 15.8% over the 2004 second
quarter, driven by an increase in callable brokered deposits acquired in the merger, as well as brokered deposits issued during the year as a less expensive alternative to borrowing.



Providents Virginia franchise continues to be a significant component of its business focus. For the quarter, average deposits in the
Washington metropolitan and Virginia markets represented 38% of customer deposits. The 30 banking offices added from the Southern Financial merger facilitated the growth in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area franchise to 84 banking offices, or
55% of total banking offices.



Total average consumer deposits remained flat in
second quarter 2005 over second quarter 2004. Average consumer demand account balances increased 8%, from $746 million in the 2004 second quarter, to $814 million in 2005. Average consumer certificates of deposit decreased 7% and average consumer
savings deposits decreased 2% from the prior year quarter. Commercial deposits increased 6% over the prior year quarter with average demand account balances representing the areas of growth.

Treasury Activities



The Treasury Division manages the wholesale segments of the balance sheet, including investments, purchased funds, long-term debt and derivatives. Managements
objective is to achieve the maximum level of stable earnings over the long term, while controlling the level of interest rate and liquidity risk, and optimizing capital utilization.



At June 30, 2005, the investment securities portfolio was $2.1 billion, or 32% of total assets. The Banks investment portfolio
declined $243 million from December 31, 2004 to June 30, 2005, reflecting managements strategy to de-emphasize wholesale investments while growing originated loans. The reduction in balances occurred in the fixed rate mortgage-backed
securities portfolio, which was reduced from $1.6 billion to $1.3 billion during 2005. The portfolio objective is to obtain the maximum sustainable interest margin over match-funded borrowings, subject to liquidity, credit and interest rate risk, as
well as capital, regulatory and economic considerations. Typically, management classifies securities as available for sale to maximize management flexibility, although securities may be purchased with the intention of holding to maturity.



To achieve its stated objective, the Corporation invests predominately in U.S.
Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities (MBS), corporate bonds and asset-backed securities (ABS). At June 30, 2005, 63% of the investment portfolio was invested in MBS. The allocation to floating rate
ABS and corporate bonds was increased to 27%, in anticipation of rising short-term interest rates. The ABS portfolio, representing 26% of the total portfolio, consists predominately of Aaa and single A rated tranches of pooled trust preferred
securities. Other debt securities primarily include investments in single issuer corporate bonds rated investment-grade by Moodys or S&P, singe or double A rated home equity ABS, and U.S. Treasury, Agency, and municipal
securities.



The primary risk in the investment portfolio is duration risk.
Duration measures the expected change in the market value of an investment for a 100 basis point (or 1%) change in interest rates. The higher an investments duration, the longer the time until its rate is reset to current market rates. The
Banks risk tolerance, as measured by the duration of the investment portfolio, is typically between 2% and 3.5%. In the current economic environment, the duration is targeted for the lower half of that range. Another risk in the investment
portfolio is credit risk. At June 30, 2005, over 74% of the entire investment portfolio was rated AAA, 25% was investment grade below AAA, and 1% was rated below investment grade or was not rated.



Investment securities are evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in their
value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. If a decline in value
is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized. The Corporation had a limited number of securities in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more at
June 30, 2005. Because the declines in fair value were due to changes in market interest rates, not in estimated cash flows, no other than temporary impairment was recorded at June 30, 2005.



Providents funds management objectives are as follows: to minimize the cost of
borrowings while assuring sufficient funding availability to meet current and future borrowing requirements, and to contribute to interest rate risk management goals through match-funding loan and investment activity. Management utilizes a variety
of sources to raise borrowed funds at competitive rates, including federal funds purchased (fed funds), Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings, securities sold under repurchase agreements (repos), and brokered
and jumbo certificates of deposit (CDs). FHLB borrowings and repos typically are borrowed at rates approximating the LIBOR rate for the equivalent term because they are secured with investments or high quality real estate loans. Fed
funds, which are generally overnight borrowings, are typically purchased at the Federal Reserve target rate. Brokered CDs are generally added when market conditions permit issuance at rates favorable to other funding sources.



The Corporation formed wholly owned statutory business trusts in 1998, 2000 and 2003. In
2004, the Corporation acquired three wholly owned statutory business trusts from Southern Financial as part of the merger. In all cases, the trusts issued trust preferred securities that were sold to outside third parties. The trust preferred
securities are presented net of unamortized issuance costs as Long-Term Debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Condition and are

includable in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes, subject to certain limitations. Any of the trust preferred
securities are redeemable at any time in whole, but not in part, from the date of issuance on the occurrence of certain events. On March 31, 2005, the Corporation redeemed $30 million aggregate value of capital securities issued by Provident
Trust II at an annual rate of 10%. On July 15, 2005, the Corporation redeemed $5 million aggregate value of capital securities issued by Southern Capital Trust I at an annual rate of 11%.



Treasury borrowings declined from December 2004 to June 2005, reflecting the transition of
the Banks balance sheet from wholesale to core funding sources. Comparing monthly average balances, June 2005 borrowings declined $275 million from December 2004, from $2.09 billion to $1.82 billion. The reductions in balance were widespread:
short-term borrowings declined $115 million, long-term borrowings were reduced $135 million, and management redeemed $30 million of trust preferred securities in the first half of 2005.



Liquidity



An important component of the Banks asset/liability structure is the level of liquidity available to meet the needs of customers and creditors. Traditional sources
of bank liquidity include deposit growth, loan repayments, investment maturities, asset sales, borrowings and interest received. Management believes the Bank has sufficient liquidity to meet funding needs in the foreseeable future.



The Banks primary source of liquidity beyond the traditional sources is the assets it
possesses, which can either be pledged as collateral for secured borrowings or sold outright. The Banks primary sources for raising secured borrowings are the FHLB and securities broker/dealers. At June 30, 2005, $1.4 billion of secured
borrowings were employed, with sufficient collateral available to immediately raise an additional $793 million. An excess liquidity position of $543 million remains after covering $250 million of unsecured funds that mature in the next three months.
Additionally, over $300 million of assets are maintained as collateral with the Federal Reserve that is available as a contingent funding source.



The Bank also has several unsecured funding sources available should the need arise. At June 30, 2005, the Bank possessed over $900 million of overnight borrowing
capacity, of which $180 million was in use at period-end. The brokered CD and unsecured debt markets, which generally are more expensive than secured funds of similar maturity, are also viable funding alternatives. In second quarter 2005, the Bank
did not issue brokered CDs.



As an alternative to raising secured funds, the
Bank can raise liquidity through asset sales. At June 30, 2005, over $500 million of the Banks investment portfolio was immediately saleable at a market value equaling or exceeding its amortized cost basis. Additionally, over a 90-day
time frame, a majority of the Banks $1.8 billion consumer loan portfolio is saleable in an efficient market.



A significant use of the Corporations liquidity is the dividends it pays to shareholders. The Corporation is a one-bank holding company that relies upon the
Banks performance to generate capital growth through Bank earnings. A portion of the Banks earnings is passed to the Corporation in the form of cash dividends. As a commercial bank under the Maryland Financial Institution Law, the Bank
may declare cash dividends from undivided profits or, with the prior approval of the Commissioner of Financial Regulation, out of paid-in capital in excess of 100% of its required capital stock, and after providing for due or accrued expenses,
losses, interest and taxes. These dividends paid to the holding company are utilized to pay dividends to stockholders, repurchase shares and pay interest on trust preferred securities. The Corporation and the Bank, in declaring and paying dividends,
are also limited insofar as minimum capital requirements of regulatory authorities must be maintained. The Corporation and the Bank comply with such capital requirements. If the Corporation or the Bank were unable to comply with the minimum capital
requirements, it could result in regulatory actions that could have a material impact on the Corporation.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Off Balance Sheet Arrangements



The Corporation has various contractual obligations, such as long-term borrowings, that are
recorded as liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Other items, such as certain minimum lease payments for the use of banking and operations offices under operating lease agreements, are not recognized as liabilities in the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, but are required to be disclosed. Each of these arrangements affects the Corporations determination of sufficient liquidity.



The following table summarizes significant contractual obligations at June 30, 2005 and the future periods in which such obligations
are expected to be settled in cash. In addition, the table reflects the timing of principal payments on outstanding borrowings.

Arrangements to fund credit products
or guarantee financing take the form of loan commitments (including lines of credit on revolving credit structures) and letters of credit. Approvals for these arrangements are obtained in the same manner as loans. Generally, cash flows, collateral
value and a risk assessment are considered when determining the amount and structure of credit arrangements. Commitments to extend credit in the form of consumer, commercial real estate and business loans at June 30, 2005 were as follows:

Historically, many of the commitments
expire without being fully drawn; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Risk Management



The nature of the banking business, which involves paying interest on deposits at varying rates and terms and charging interest on loans at other rates and terms, creates
interest rate risk. As a result, earnings and the market value of assets and liabilities are subject to fluctuations, which arise due to changes in the level and directions of interest rates. Managements objective is to minimize the
fluctuation in the net interest margin caused by changes in interest rates using cost-effective strategies and tools. The Bank manages several forms of interest rate risk, including asset/liability mismatch, basis and prepayment risk.



The Corporation purchases amortizing loan pools and investment securities in which the
underlying assets are residential mortgage loans subject to prepayments. The actual principal reduction on these assets varies from the expected contractual principal reduction due to principal prepayments resulting from borrowers elections to
refinance the underlying mortgages based on market and other conditions. Prepayment rate projections utilize actual prepayment speed experience and available market information on like-kind instruments. The prepayment rates form the basis for income
recognition of premiums or discounts on the related assets. Changes in prepayment estimates may cause the earnings recognized on these assets to vary over the term that the assets are held, creating volatility in the net interest margin. Prepayment
rate assumptions are monitored and updated monthly to reflect actual activity and the most recent market projections. Basis risk exists as a result of having much of the Banks earning assets priced using either the Prime rate or the U.S.
Treasury yield curve, while much of the liability portfolio, which finances earning assets, is priced using the CD yield curve or LIBOR yield curve. These different yield curves typically do not move in lock-step with one another.



Measuring and managing interest rate risk is a dynamic process that management performs
continually to meet the objective of maintaining a stable net interest margin. This process relies chiefly on simulation modeling of shocks to the balance sheet under a variety of interest rate scenarios, including parallel and non-parallel rate
shifts, such as the forward yield curves for both short and long term interest rates. The results of these shocks are measured in two forms: first, the impact on the net interest margin and earnings over one and two year time frames; and second, the
impact on the market value of equity. In addition to measuring the basis risks and prepayment risks noted above, simulations also quantify the earnings impact of rate changes and the cost / benefit of hedging strategies.



The following table shows the anticipated effect on net interest income in parallel shift (up
or down) interest rate scenarios. These shifts are assumed to begin on July 1, 2005 for the June 30, 2005 data and on January 1, 2005 for the December 31, 2004 data and evenly ramp-up or down over a six-month period. The effect
on net interest income would be for the next twelve months. Given the interest environment in the periods presented, a 200 basis point drop in rate is unlikely and has not been shown.

The percentage changes displayed in
the table above relate to the Corporations projected net interest income. Managements intent is for derivative interest income to mitigate risk to the Corporations net interest income stemming from changes in interest rates. For
comparison purposes, the projections above include all interest earned on derivatives in net interest income. (i.e. The analysis includes the interest income and expense relating to non-designated interest rate swaps that are classified in
non-interest income as Net Cash Settlement on Swaps.)

The isolated modeling environment, assuming no action by management, shows that the Corporations net interest
income volatility is less than 4.9% under probable single direction scenarios. The Corporations one-year forward earnings are slightly asset sensitive, which will result in net interest income moving in the same direction as future interest
rates. Management pays close attention to the risk of continued flattening of the yield curve. Short-term interest rates, such as the Fed Funds rate, have increased approximately 225 basis points over the past year while long-term rates have
declined. Further yield curve flattening may be possible, either through further increases in short-term rates, further decreases in long-term rates, or both. Management routinely models several yield curve flattening scenarios as part of its
interest rate risk management function, and believes this risk is minor under most yield curve flattening scenarios.



Management employs the investment, purchased funds, and derivatives portfolios in implementing the Banks interest rate strategy. As noted above, mitigating yield
curve flattening risk has been a significant element of interest rate risk management. To protect the Bank from rising short-term interest rates, over $600 million of the investment portfolio reprices semiannually or more frequently. In the purchase
funds portfolio, over $300 million of funds reset their rates with long-term interest rates, such as the 10 year constant maturity swap rate, to protect net interest margin from falling long-term interest rates. The interest expense associated with
these borrowings declines when long-term interest rates decline. Additionally, $611 million of interest rates swaps were in force to reduce interest rate risk, and $300 million of interest rate caps were employed specifically to protect against
rising interest rates.



In addition to managing interest rate risk, which
applies to both assets and liabilities, the Corporation must understand and manage risks specific to lending. Much of the fundamental lending business of Provident is based upon understanding, measuring and controlling credit risk. Credit risk
entails both general risks, which are inherent in the process of lending, and risk specific to individual borrowers. Each consumer and residential lending product has a generally predictable level of credit loss based on historical loss experience.
Home mortgage and home equity loans and lines generally have the lowest credit loss experience. Loans with medium credit loss experience are primarily secured products such as auto and marine loans. Unsecured loan products such as personal revolving
credit have the highest credit loss experience, therefore the Bank has chosen not to engage in a significant amount of this type of lending. Credit risk in commercial lending varies significantly, as losses as a percentage of outstanding loans can
shift widely from period to period and are particularly sensitive to changing economic conditions. Generally improving economic conditions result in improved operating results on the part of commercial customers, enhancing their ability to meet debt
service requirements. However, this improvement in operating cash flow is often at least partially offset by rising interest rates often seen in an improving economic environment. In addition, changing economic conditions often impact various
business segments differently, giving rise to the need to manage industry concentrations within the loan portfolio. Further discussion relating to asset quality was presented on page 28.



Other lending risks include liquidity risk and specific risk. The liquidity risk of the Corporation arises from its obligation to make
payment in the event of a customers contractual default. The evaluation of specific risk is a basic function of underwriting and loan administration, involving analysis of the borrowers ability to service debt as well as the value of
pledged collateral. In addition to impacting individual lending decisions, this analysis may also determine the aggregate level of commitments the Corporation is willing to extend to an individual customer or a group of related customers.



Capital Resources



Total stockholders equity was $627 million at June 30, 2005, an increase of $8.9
million from December 31, 2004. The change in stockholders equity for the period was attributable to $35.7 million in earnings that was partially offset by dividends paid of $17.5 million and a decrease of $422 thousand in net accumulated
other comprehensive income loss. Capital was also reduced by $13.1 million from the repurchase of 406 thousand shares of the Corporations common stock at an average price of $32.40. In June 2005, the Corporation approved the repurchase of
an additional 1.3 million shares under its stock repurchase program, bringing the maximum authorized remainder to 1,516,603 shares.



The Corporation is required to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of core capital to adjusted quarterly average assets (leverage ratio) and of tier 1 and
total regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets. The actual regulatory capital ratios and required ratios for capital adequacy purposes under FIRREA and the ratios to be categorized as well capitalized under prompt corrective action
regulations are summarized in the following table.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



DISCUSSION AND RECONCILIATION OF NET
INCOME AND OPERATING INCOME



As a result of the restatement, management
has included a reconciliation of net income and operating income. Although operating income is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, the Corporation believes that operating income measures are important because
they provide readers with a more meaningful presentation of the Corporations core results of operations from period to period. The Corporation calculates operating income by adding or subtracting, as the case may be, income gains and losses on
sales of securities and gains and losses associated with corrections to the Corporations derivative accounting method as described in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (which are included in the net income measures)
because the Corporation believes those items are not reflective of the Corporations core results of operations. The Corporation believes that operating income measures are useful to investors seeking to evaluate its operating performance and
to compare its performance with other companies in the banking industry that also report operating income. Operating income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities, or other
income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Corporation calculates operating income may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. A reconciliation of the
Corporations net income and operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 follows, and a table presenting a similar reconciliation for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 follows below:

Overview



The Corporation recorded net income of $20.0 million or $0.60 per diluted share in the
quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $12.9 million and $0.42 per diluted share in second quarter 2004, representing increases over second quarter 2004 of 55% and 43%, respectively.



Return on assets and return on common equity increased from .85% and 10.21%, respectively at
June 30, 2004 to 1.25% and 12.81%, respectively, at June 30, 2005. The Corporations key performance measurements such as operating return on assets and operating return on common equity were 1.05% and 10.75% respectively, in the
quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to 1.01% and 12.13%, respectively in the prior year quarter.

##### Table of Contents

Solid loan growth in key business segments and the effects of the Southern Financial merger augmented second quarter
results. Improved earnings included an increase of $5.5 million in net interest income, a $700 thousand increase in the provision for loan losses and a $10 million increase in non-interest income, which were partially offset by a $4.8 million
increase in non-interest expense and a $2.9 million increase in income tax expense, resulting in a $7.1 million increase in net income from second quarter 2004.



Results for the quarter included a one-time after-tax adjustment of $699,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, to reflect the cumulative impact of a modification of the
Corporations accounting practices related to leased facilities. Like many other publicly-traded companies that have a significant number of leased facilities, the Corporation is conforming its method of accounting for rent expense for leases
that contain fixed escalations in rent payments, in order to be consistent with accounting guidance. As the adjustment was not material to any prior period financial statements, the full lease accounting adjustment was recorded in the second quarter
of 2005 in occupancy expense. While the lease accounting adjustment accelerates rent expense from future periods, it does not affect historical or future cash flows or the timing or amounts of rent payments.



The financial results reflect the continued balance sheet transition toward growing loans and
deposits in core business segments. An overview of the strategies is discussed on pages 22 and 23 of Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The net interest margin was 3.48%, as compared to 3.20%
for the same quarter last year. The efficiency ratio for the quarter increased slightly to 63.9% from 62.3% in the prior years quarter. Asset quality remained strong, as non-performing assets to loans were 0.67% and charge-offs to average
loans were 0.14% for the quarter.



The basis for financial comparison includes
the impact of the Southern Financial Bancorp, Inc. merger for two months of the second quarter of 2004 and the entire second quarter of 2005.



Net Interest Income



The Corporations principal source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on earning assets and interest expense on deposits and borrowings. Interest income is
presented on a tax-equivalent basis to recognize associated tax benefits in order to provide a basis for comparison of yields with taxable earning assets. The table on the following pages analyzes the reasons for the changes from period-to-period in
the principal elements that comprise net interest income. Rate and volume variances presented for each component will not total the variances presented on totals of interest income and interest expense because of shifts from period-to-period in the
relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

The net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased 28 basis points to 3.48% and was driven by continued solid
growth in lending activities. Earning assets grew $169 million to $5.7 billion fueled by loan growth of $282 million which was partially offset by a $101 million reduction in investment securities. The yields on loans and investments grew 57 and 47
basis points, respectively. The yield increase in the portfolio was the result of the restructuring program initiated last year which placed greater emphasis on variable rate securities, as well as a decline in prepayments. Interest-bearing
liabilities grew $127 million while the average rate paid increased 35 basis points. The increase in the average rate paid was primarily due to an increase in short-term borrowings which replaced direct CDs and long-term debt. Interest expense
benefited further from a $65 million increase in average noninterest-bearing deposit balances during the quarter.



The 5.44% yield on earning assets correspondingly increased as a result of the loan growth which more than offset the increase in funding costs of 2.26%. Net interest
income on a tax-equivalent basis was $49.6 million in second quarter 2005, compared to $44.1 million in second quarter 2004. Total interest income increased $10.4 million and total interest expense increased $4.9 million resulting in the growth in
net interest income of $5.5 million.



The corporation has an ongoing risk
management strategy of using derivative transactions to maintain a stable net interest margin. As a result of derivative transactions undertaken to mitigate the affect of interest rate risk on the Corporation, interest income decreased by $474
thousand and interest expense increased by $466 thousand, for a total decrease of $940 thousand in net interest income relating to derivative transactions for the quarter ended June 30, 2005.



Future growth in net interest income will depend upon consumer and commercial loan demand,
growth in deposits and the general level of interest rates.



Provision for
Loan Losses



The Corporations underwriting and collection efforts,
as well as aggressive management of potential problem loans resulted in a provision for loan losses of $2.2 million in second quarter 2005 compared to $1.5 million in second quarter 2004. Net charge-offs were $1.3 million, or 0.14% of average loans,
in second quarter 2005 compared to $2.1 million, or 0.25% of average loans, in second quarter 2004. Acquired residential loan net charge-offs as a percentage of average acquired residential loans continued to decline during the period, from 0.79% in
second quarter 2004 to 0.04% in second quarter 2005.



Non-Interest Income



Non-interest income grew to $33.2 million from $23.2 million in second
quarter 2004. Operating non-interest income grew $1.7 million, or 6.4% from 2004. Deposit fee income increased 3%, reflecting increases in consumer and commercial deposit fees. Virtually all of the increase in consumer deposit fees was from the
addition of the Southern Financial account base, as well as debit card fee income, which increased 8%. As with many of the Banks peers, consumer deposit fees are being negatively impacted by decreases in checking transactions and decreases in
NSF activity. The Bank took actions during the second quarter that involved implementing a number of fundamental processing changes. Management believes these changes will not alter its competitive position, but will deliver sustainable revenue
recovery in the future, given expected account and transaction volumes. Net cash settlement on swaps, representing interest income and expense on non-designated interest rate swaps, decreased $321 thousand from second quarters 2004, as a result of
rising short-term interest rates. Providents non-designated interest rate swaps are predominantly receive fixed/pay LIBOR positions. LIBOR rates have increased approximately 200 basis points from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005.
Other non-interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 benefited from increases in mortgage banking income and income associated with bank owned life insurance.



Net gains were $706 thousand in second quarter 2005, compared to net losses of $7.9 million in second quarter 2004. Second quarter 2005
included investment/borrowing transactions that were focused on reducing fixed rate mortgage-backed securities to reduce interest rate risk. These transactions generated net losses of $659 thousand. These losses were more than offset by a $1.4
million gain realized from the liquidation of an equity investment held by the Corporation, resulting from the acquisition of the issuer. Prior years losses were primarily the result of the investment portfolio

restructuring program, the objective of which was to improve the overall yield of the portfolio. The second quarter of
2005 also included net gains of $143 thousand from the sale of mortgage loans. The disposition of loans and foreclosed properties, which occur in the ordinary course of business, generated net losses of $96 thousand in the second quarter of 2005.
Derivative gains on swaps declined $307 thousand over second quarter 2004. This shift resulted from the previous noted rise in short-term interest rates.



Non-Interest Expense



Non-interest expense of $51 million for second quarter 2005 was $4.8 million higher than second quarter 2004. Exclusive of the one-time $1.0 million adjustment to account for escalating lease payments recorded as
occupancy expense and $2.0 million for merger expenses incurred in the second quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively, non-interest expense increased $5.8 million, or 13%. Of this increase, $3.7 million was attributable to salary and employee benefit
expense associated with internal or acquired branch expansion, a mutual separation agreement with an executive who departed the Company, in addition to increases in employee benefit costs. Another contributing factor to rising compensation cost was
the competition in the employment market that has resulted in increased relative labor costs. Non-interest expense also included the impact of an additional $700 thousand of professional fees, primarily relating to the cost of compliance with the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The remaining $1.4 million increase represented costs associated with expanding the Banks footprint and the related infrastructure.



Income Taxes



The Corporation accounts for income taxes under the asset/liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
indicated by the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become realizable. The judgment about the level
of future taxable income is dependent to a great extent on matters that may at least in part, be beyond the Banks control. It is at least reasonably possible that managements judgment about the need for a valuation allowance for deferred
taxes could change in the near term. The valuation allowance was $1.9 million at June 30, 2005 versus $1.7 million at December 31, 2004.



The Corporation recorded income tax expense of $9.4 million based on pre-tax income of $29.4 million, representing an effective tax rate of 32.0% in second quarter 2005.
In second quarter 2004, the Corporation recorded a tax expense of $6.5 million on pre-tax income of $19.4 million, an effective tax rate of 33.4%.

The Corporation recorded net income of
$35.7 million or $1.06 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to $23.6 million or $.84 per diluted share in the prior year. Return on assets was 1.12% and return on common equity was 11.58% for six months ended
June 30, 2005 compared to .84% and 11.29%, respectively for the same period in 2004. Operating net income increased by $7.6 million, to $35.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 3005, an increase of 27.2% from period to period.
Operating return on assets was 1.12% and operating return on common equity was 11.57% compared to .99% and 13.41%, respectively.



Year to date results include a one-time after-tax decrease of $699 thousand, or $0.02 per diluted share, to reflect the cumulative impact of a modification of the
Corporations accounting practices related to leased facilities. Like many other publicly-traded companies that have a significant number of leased facilities, the Corporation is conforming its method of accounting for rent expense for leases
that contain fixed escalations in rent payments, in order to be consistent with accounting guidance. As the adjustment was not material to any prior period financial statements, the full lease accounting adjustment was recorded in the second quarter
of 2005 in occupancy expense. While the lease accounting adjustment accelerates rent expense from future periods, it does not affect historical or future cash flows or the timing or amounts of rent payments.

Net Interest Income



Tax-equivalent net interest income for the six months of 2005 increased $13.3 million to $98.5 million compared to 2004, a 15.6% increase from period to period. Interest
income increased $25.7 million and interest expense increased $12.5 million. Growth of $492 million in interest-earning assets accompanied by a 50 basis point yield increase more than offset the $406 million increase in interest-bearing liabilities
whose rate increased 36 basis points. This resulted in the net yield on earning assets increasing to 3.47% in 2005 from 3.28% in 2004. The growth in the net yield further benefited from the $141 million growth in non-interest bearing deposits.

Provision for Loan Losses



The provision for loan losses for the first six months of 2005 was $3.8 million, level with the first six months of 2004. Net charge-offs
were $3.3 million in 2005 compared to $3.5 million in 2004. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.19% in 2005 compared to 0.22% in 2004.



Non-Interest Income



Total non-interest income increased to $56.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $40.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Operating non-interest income increased 18.4% to $56.2
million for six months in 2005. The majority of this increase was due to a $1.5 million increase in deposit service charges and $2.4 million in income associated with bank owned life insurance policies maintained by the Corporation. In addition, net
losses were $70 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to net losses of $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. In 2004, net losses from the sales of securities were $6.7 million, driven by the $8.1 million
loss from balance sheet restructuring transactions associated with 2004 merger. Net cash settlements for non-designated derivatives for the six months ending June 30, 2005 totaled $2.7 million, a $3.4 million increase from the same period in
2004. The increase resulted primarily from experiencing a reduction in expense attributable to Pay Fixed / Receive LIBOR swaps which more than offset a reduction in income on Receive Fixed / Pay LIBOR swaps. Both Pay Fixed and Receive Fixed swaps
experienced declines in the spread between their fixed rates and their variable rates due to increases in LIBOR rates throughout 2005. Derivative gains were $101 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to a $476 thousand gain
for the same period in 2004.



Non-Interest Expense



Non-interest expense of $98.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased
$11.7 million, or 13.4%, compared to the same period one year ago. The six months ended June 30, 2005 included a reduction to non-interest expense of $1.6 million related to the Corporations termination of the post-retirement benefit plan
and a one-time charge for occupancy expense of $1.0 million. The same period for 2004 included merger expense of $2.2 million. Exclusive of these items, non-interest expense increased $14.4 million or 17%. The increase from year to year is primarily
attributable to the merger, which had two months of expense included in the 2004 results versus 2005 which had a full six months expense. Additional items contributing to this increase were employee benefit costs, a mutual separation agreement with
an executive who departed the Company, labor and the associated recruiting costs and cost of compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.



Income Taxes



The Corporation recorded income tax expense of $16.4 million in the first six months of 2005 based on pre-tax income of $52.1 million, a 31.4% effective tax rate as compared to pre-tax income of $35.0 million and an
effective tax rate of 32.6% for 2004.



Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



For information regarding market risk at December 31, 2004, see Interest Sensitivity Management and Note 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the Corporations Form 10-K/A
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 22, 2005. The market risk of the Corporation has not experienced any material changes as of June 30, 2005 from December 31, 2004. Additionally, refer to Item 2 
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional quantitative and qualitative discussions about market risk at June 30, 2005.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures



The
Corporations management, including the Corporations principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the Exchange Act). This evaluation included consideration of a deficiency in the disclosure controls and procedures relating to the accounting
for derivatives. As a result of this deficiency (described in the paragraph below), errors occurred in the Corporations application of the short-cut method of fair value hedge accounting under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133) to certain of its derivative securities. This is described in Note 2 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2005. The errors in the application of SFAS No. 133 resulted in the restatement of the Corporations financial statements at and for the quarters ended June 30, 2005
and March 31, 2005; and at and for the year ended December 31, 2004. Based upon that evaluation, the Corporations principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that a material weakness existed in the
Corporations internal control over financial reporting and that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.



The Corporations policies and procedures did not provide for sufficient testing and
verification of the criteria for the short-cut method to ensure proper application of the provisions of SFAS No. 133 at inception for certain derivative financial instruments and did not provide for periodic timely review of the
proper accounting for certain derivative financial instruments for periods subsequent to inception. This material weakness has resulted in the restatement of the Companys financial statements for the first two quarters of 2005 and for the year
ended December 31, 2004. The financial statement impacts to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are described in Note 2.



No change in the Corporations internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporations internal control over financial reporting. However due to the above-referenced deficiency, subsequent to June 30, 2005, the Corporation will redesignate its derivative financial
instruments as hedges utilizing the long haul method of effectiveness testing, and as a result, will apply hedge accounting treatment for the derivatives for future periods. The Corporation is in the process of designing various
modifications to its internal control over financial reporting for derivatives that it acquires in the future, including introducing the necessary documentation to achieve fair value and cash flow hedge accounting treatment for those derivatives.



PART II  Other Information



Item 1. Legal Proceedings



The Corporation
is not involved in any pending legal proceedings other than routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. Management believes such routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse affect on the
Corporations financial condition or results of operation.



Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds



During 1998, the Corporation initiated a stock repurchase program for its outstanding stock. Under this plan the Corporation approved the repurchase of specific additional amounts of shares without any specific
expiration date. As the Corporation fulfilled each specified repurchase amount, additional amounts were approved. Most recently, on June 17, 2005, the Corporation approved an additional stock repurchase of up to 1.3 million shares from
time to time subject to market conditions. Currently, the maximum number of shares remaining to be purchased under this plan is 1,516,603. All shares have been repurchased pursuant to the publicly announced plan. The repurchase plan will continue
until it is completed or terminated by the Board of Directors. No plans expired during the three months ended June 30, 2005. The Corporation has no plans that it elected to terminate prior to expiration or under which it does not intend to make
further purchases.

Item 5. Other Information



On June 27,

memorandum contemplates that he will be paid 24 months of severance pay, aggregating $580,726 and receive continuing benefits for 24 months. His change in control agreement is terminated. Additionally, as part of this agreement, Mr. Oppitz has
24 months to exercise all vested stock options. The extension of this exercise period resulted in the recognition of $525,000 of compensation expense during the second quarter 2005.
