PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS GENERAL Patriot Bank Corp. ("Patriot") is a Pennsylvania corporation and a financial holding company for Patriot Bank (the "Bank"), Patriot Investment Company ("PIC") and Patriot Advisors, Inc. Patriot is subject to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "FRB"). Originally organized as a Delaware corporation, Patriot became a Pennsylvania corporation as a result of its consolidation with First Lehigh Corporation on January 22, 1999. Patriot's executive offices are located at the corporate offices of the Bank at High and Hanover Streets, Pottstown, Pennsylvania 19464. The Bank was founded in 1905. In 1991, the Bank's predecessor converted from a federally-chartered mutual savings bank to a Pennsylvania-chartered mutual savings bank and changed its name to Patriot Savings Bank. In August 1995, the Bank converted from a Pennsylvania-chartered mutual savings bank to a federally-chartered mutual savings bank. On December 1, 1995, Patriot acquired the Bank as part of the Bank's conversion from a mutual to stock form of ownership (the "Conversion"). In connection with the Conversion, the Bank changed its name to Patriot Bank. On May 23, 1997, the Bank converted to a Pennsylvania-chartered commercial bank. In 2003 the bank became a member of the Federal Reserve. The Bank conducts business through its network of 17 community banking offices located in Berks, Chester, Lehigh, Montgomery and Northampton counties, Pennsylvania. The majority of the Bank's deposits are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") and administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. ("FDIC"). As a result of its acquisition of First Lehigh Bank, the acquired deposits are insured by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") administered by the FDIC. At December 31, 2003, the Bank had total assets of $1.039 billion, deposits of $616 million and shareholders' equity of $81 million. The Bank is a community-oriented financial services provider whose business primarily consists of attracting deposits from the general public, small businesses and other enterprises and originating commercial loans and leases, consumer loans, and mortgage loans in the Bank's market area. The bank also sells non-deposit investment products to consumers and invests in investment and mortgage-backed securities. In addition to deposits, the Bank uses advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh ("FHLB") and repurchase agreements as sources of funds. The Bank's revenues are derived principally from interest and fees on loans and leases, interest on investment and mortgage-backed securities and other fees and service charges. Additional revenues are derived from the sale of certain leases, mortgage and commercial small business administration loans and investments as well as the sale of non-deposit investment products to consumers. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB advances, repurchase agreements, interest on loans and investment and mortgage-backed securities and principal repayments on loans and leases, and investment and mortgage-backed securities. PIC is a Delaware investment corporation that was incorporated by Patriot on September 10, 1996. Its primary business consists of maintaining an investment portfolio. At December 31, 2003, PIC had total assets of $1.032 million and shareholder's equity of $1.032 million. In January 2003, Patriot acquired Bonds and Paulus Inc. a registered investment advisor and Pension Benefits Inc. a third party administrator and registered investment advisor. In September 2003, Patriot acquired Tyler Wealth Counselors, a registered investment advisory firm providing investment and financial planning services to individuals and families. These three companies were merged into Patriot Advisors, a wealth management subsidiary of the company. At December 31, 2003, Patriot Advisors had approximately $445 million assets under management. In December 2003, Patriot and Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc. ("Susquehanna") announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Susquehanna will acquire Patriot in a stock and cash transaction valued at $212 million, based on Susquehanna's market price as of the date of the agreement. The transaction, unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, will enhance Susquehanna's presence in Pennsylvania, particularly in the high-growth counties of Berks, Chester, Lehigh, Montgomery and Northampton. Upon completion of the transaction, Susquehanna will become the fifth largest banking company headquartered in Pennsylvania with total assets of over $7 billion. 1 Under the terms of the merger agreement, shareholders of Patriot will be entitled to elect to receive in exchange for shares of Patriot common stock either $30.00 in cash, 1.143 common shares of Susquehanna or a combination thereof. Patriot shareholder elections are subject to allocation procedures. The application of these procedures will result in the exchange of 20 percent of the Patriot shares and options for cash, and the remaining Patriot shares and options will be exchanged for Susquehanna common stock or converted to Susquehanna options, as appropriate. Based upon the stated value of $30.00 per share, the transaction price represents 298 percent of Patriot's book value and 21.4 times Patriot's 2004 earnings per share estimate as reported by First Call. It is anticipated that the transaction will be completed during the second quarter of 2004, pending regulatory approvals and the approval of shareholders of Patriot and Susquehanna. MARKET AREA AND COMPETITION Patriot is headquartered approximately 45 miles northwest of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and its market consists primarily of Berks, Chester, Lehigh, Montgomery and Northampton counties in Pennsylvania. The segment of the markets served by Patriot are primarily service and trade oriented and demographically are comprised of middle income and upper income households. Patriot faces significant competition both in originating loans and in attracting deposits and managed assets. Patriot's competitors are other financial service providers operating within its primary market area, some of which are larger and have greater financial resources than Patriot. Patriot's competition for loans and deposits comes principally from commercial banks, savings and loan associations, savings banks, credit unions, and mortgage banking companies (some of which are subsidiaries of major financial institutions). In addition, Patriot faces increasing competition for managed assets from non-bank institutions such as brokerage firms and insurance firms with investment and other products such as money market funds, mutual funds and annuities. Management considers Patriot's community-oriented reputation, superior customer service and personal relationships, convenience and product offerings as a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining customers. SUBSIDIARY ACTIVITIES Patriot has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: The Bank, PIC and Patriot Advisors. The Bank has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Patriot Commercial Leasing Co., Inc. ("PCLC"), Patriot Investment and Insurance Company ("PIIC") and Marathon Management Company, Inc. ("Marathon"). PCLC is a small-ticket commercial leasing company. At December 31, 2003, PCLC had total assets of $82,811,000 and generated total revenues of $8,859,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. PIIC markets certain non-deposit investment products. At December 31, 2003, PIIC had total assets of $981,000 and generated fee income of $267,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. Marathon provides title insurance services through a joint venture partnership. At December 31, 2003, Marathon had total assets of $348,000 and generated fee income of $53,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. PERSONNEL As of December 31, 2003, Patriot had 283 employees (including 24 part-time employees). Management believes that the Bank has good relations with its employees and there are no pending or threatened labor disputes with its employees. REGULATION AND SUPERVISION GENERAL. Patriot, as a registered financial holding company, is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of, the FRB under the Bank Holding Company Act, as amended (the "BHCA"). In addition, the activities of Pennsylvania-chartered commercial banks, such as the Bank, are governed by the Pennsylvania Banking Code and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDI Act"). During 2003 the Bank was approved and became a member of the FRB. Becoming a member of the FRB changed the Bank's primary federal regulator from the FDIC to the FRB. The Bank is subject to extensive regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve System (the "FRB"), and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking ("PDB"). The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") 2 System. Certain of the Bank's deposits are insured by the BIF while most of its deposit accounts are insured by the SAIF. The Bank must file reports with the PDB and the FRB concerning its activities and financial condition in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other banking institutions. The PDB and the FRB conduct periodic examinations to test the Bank's safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the FRB, the FDIC or the Congress, could have a material adverse impact on Patriot, the Bank and their operations. Certain of the regulatory requirements applicable to the Bank and to Patriot are referred to below or elsewhere herein. The description of statutory provisions and regulations applicable to banking institutions and their holding companies set forth in this Form 10-K does not purport to be a complete description of such statutes and regulations and their effects on the Bank and Patriot. HOLDING COMPANY REGULATION. Patriot is a financial holding company registered under the BHCA. As a financial services holding company, Patriot's activities and those of the Bank are limited to the business of banking and activities closely related or incidental to banking. The BHCA prohibits a financial holding company, directly or indirectly, or through one or more subsidiaries, from acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another banking institution or holding company thereof, without prior written approval of the FRB; acquiring or retaining, with certain exceptions, more than 5% of a nonsubsidiary company engaged in activities other than those permitted by the BHCA; or acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution that is not insured by the FDIC. Under FRB policy, a financial holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support its subsidiary bank, i.e., to downstream funds to its subsidiary bank. This support may be required at times when, absent such policy, the financial holding company might not otherwise provide such support. Any capital loans by a financial holding company to its subsidiary bank are subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of its subsidiary bank. In the event of a financial services holding company's bankruptcy, any commitment by the financial services holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of its subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was enacted in 1999. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act amended the BHCA and created a new category of bank holding company called a "financial holding company." In order to become a financial holding company a bank holding company must notify the FRB that it elects to be a financial holding company. A bank holding company can make this election if it, and all its bank subsidiaries, are well capitalized, well managed, and have at least a satisfactory Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") rating, each in accordance with the definitions prescribed by the FRB and the regulators of the subsidiary banks. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act provides a list of activities that are defined as being financial in nature: - Lending and deposit activities - Issuance and sale of money orders, travelers' checks and U.S. savings bonds - Financial advisory services - Consumer financial counseling services - Tax planning and preparation advice - Insurance activities, including underwriting - Insurance company portfolio investment - Merchant banking - Investments of equity or debt in corporations or projects for the promotion of community welfare Once a bank holding company becomes a financial holding company, the holding company or its affiliates may engage in any financial activities that are financial in nature as determined by the FRB by simply giving notice to the FRB within thirty days after beginning such business or acquiring a company engaged in such business. This makes the regulatory approval process to engage in financial activities much more streamlined than it was under prior law. 3 In addition to the foregoing provisions of this law, this legislation also made a number of additions and revisions to numerous federal laws that affect the business of banking. There is now a federal law on privacy with respect to customer information held by banks. Federal banking regulators are authorized to adopt rules regarding privacy for customer information. Banks must establish a disclosure policy for non-public customer information, disclose the policy to their customers, and give their customers the opportunity to object to non-public information being disclosed to a third party. Also, the CRA has been amended by this law to provide that small banks (those under $250 million in assets) that previously received an "outstanding" on their last CRA exam will not have to undergo another CRA exam for five years or for four years if their last exam was "satisfactory." In addition, any CRA agreement entered into between a bank and a community group must be disclosed, with both the bank and the community group detailing the amount of funding provided and its purpose. This law also requires a bank's policy on fees for transactions at Automated Teller Machines ("ATM") for non-customers to be conspicuously posted on the ATM. A number of other provisions affecting other general regulatory requirements for banking institutions were also adopted. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOA") was signed into law on July 30, 2002. The stated goals of the SOA are to increase corporate responsibility, to provide for enhanced penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies and to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures pursuant to the securities laws. The SOA generally applies to all companies, both U.S. and non-U.S., that file or are required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the "Exchange Act"). The SOA includes very specific additional disclosure requirements and new corporate governance rules, requires the SEC and securities exchanges to adopt extensive additional disclosure, corporate governance and other related rules and mandates further studies of specified issues by the SEC and the Comptroller General. The SOA allows federal oversight in matters traditionally left to state regulatory systems, such as the regulation of the accounting profession, and to state corporate law, the relationships between the board of directors and management and between the board of directors and its committees. The SOA addresses, among other matters: - The role and responsibilities of audit committees - Certification of financial statements by the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer - The forfeiture of bonuses or other incentive-based compensation and profits from the sale of an issuer's securities by directors and senior officers in the twelve month period following initial publication of any financial statements that later require restatement - Prohibitions on insider trading during employee benefit plan black out periods - Disclosure of off-balance sheet transactions - Prohibitions on personal loans to directors and officers, except in the case of financial institutions to the extent any loans comply with federal banking regulations - Expedited filing requirements for Forms 4s. Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership - Disclosure of a code of ethics and filing a Form 8-K for a change or waiver of such code - "Real time" filing of periodic reports - The formation of a public accounting oversight board - Auditor independence - Various increased criminal penalties for violations of securities laws CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. The FRB has adopted risk-based capital guidelines for financial holding companies, such as Patriot. The required minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8.0%. At least half of the total capital is required to be "Tier 1 capital," consisting principally of common shareholders' equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less certain intangible assets. The remainder ("Tier 2 capital") may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt and intermediate-term preferred stock, certain hybrid capital instruments and other debt securities, perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of the allowance for credit losses. In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the FRB established minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to average total assets) guidelines for financial holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for those financial holding companies which have the highest regulatory examination ratings and are not contemplating or experiencing significant growth or expansion. All other financial holding companies are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 1% to 2% above the 3% stated minimum. Patriot is in compliance with these 4 guidelines. The Bank is subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC. The Bank is in compliance with these guidelines as well. The risk-based capital standards are required to take adequate account of interest rate risk, concentration of credit risk and the risks of non-traditional activities. Under the FDIC prompt corrective action regulations, the FDIC is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends upon the institution's degree of undercapitalization. Generally, a bank is considered "well capitalized" if its ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets is at least 10%, its ratio of Tier I (core) capital to risk-weighted assets is at least 6%, its ratio of core capital to total assets (tier 1 leverage ratio) is at least 5%, and it is not subject to any order or directive by the FDIC to meet a specific capital level. A bank generally is considered "adequately capitalized" if its ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets is at least 8%, its ratio of Tier I (core) capital to risk-weighted assets is at least 4%, and its ratio of core capital to total assets is at least 4% (3% if the institution receives the highest CAMEL rating). A bank that has lower ratios of capital is categorized as "undercapitalized," "significantly under capitalized," or "critically undercapitalized." Subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator is required to appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is "critically undercapitalized." The regulation also provides that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the FDIC within 45 days of the date a bank receives notice that it is "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically undercapitalized." Compliance with the plan must be guaranteed by any parent holding company. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to an undercapitalized institution, including, but not limited to, increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital distributions and expansion. The FDIC could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors. At December 31, 2003, both Patriot and the Bank were "well capitalized." INSURANCE OF DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. Although most of the deposits of the Bank are presently insured by the SAIF, certain of its deposits are insured by the BIF. Both the BIF and the SAIF are statutorily required to maintain a ratio of reserves to insured deposits of 1.25%. Both the BIF and the SAIF currently exceed the 1.25% ratio. Currently, the Bank does not pay any deposit insurance premiums; however, this could change. In 2002, the FDIC disclosed that it anticipated the BIF fund would decline below a 1.25% ratio triggering an increase in deposit insurance premiums or a one time assessment. As of December 31, 2003, the fund had not declined below the 1.25% ratio. If the 1.25% ratio is not met, the FDIC must assess deposit insurance premiums and also may impose premiums on under-capitalized or unsafe institutions. All institutions are assessed for payment of the FICO bonds, which were issued to finance regulatory resolution of insolvency that occurred in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Full pro rata sharing of the FICO payments between BIF and SAIF members began on January 1, 2000. The FDIC resets the FICO assessment rate each calendar quarter. The current annual rate is $0.154 per each $1,000 of deposits. Under the FDI Act, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC. The management of the Bank does not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of deposit insurance. LOANS TO ONE BORROWER. Applicable regulations limit the dollar amount of loans that the Bank may have outstanding to any one borrower, or group of affiliated borrowers, to 15% of the capital and surplus of the Bank. As of December 31, 2003, this limitation was equal to $12.2 million. There are exceptions from the limitation for certain secured loans, depending upon the amount and type of collateral. LIMITATION ON CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS. Dividend payments by the Bank to Patriot are subject to the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965 and the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA"). Under the Pennsylvania Banking Code, no dividends may be paid except from "accumulated net earnings" (generally, undivided profits). Under the FRA Act, dividends may be paid only from the current year's earnings and the retained net income of the prior two calendar years. Under current banking laws, the Bank would be limited to approximately $30.2 million of dividends in 2003 plus an additional amount equal to the Bank's net profit, up to the date of any such dividend declaration. State and federal regulatory authorities have adopted standards for the maintenance of adequate levels of capital by banks. Adherence to such standards further limits the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to Patriot. 5 INTERSTATE BANKING. The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Banking Law") amended various federal banking laws to provide for nationwide interstate banking, interstate bank mergers and interstate branching. The interstate banking law allows for the acquisition by a bank holding company of a bank located in another state. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES. The Bank's authority to engage in transactions with related parties or "affiliates" (e.g., any company that controls or is under common control with an institution, including Patriot and its non-banking subsidiaries) is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA"). Section 23A limits the aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the Bank. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the Bank's capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in Section 23A, and the purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Section 23B generally provides that certain transactions with affiliates, including loans and asset purchases, must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, banks are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and no bank may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary. The Bank's authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders ("insiders"), as well as entities such persons control, is governed by Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the FRA and Regulation O thereunder. Among other things, such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and to not involve more than the normal risk of repayment. There is an exception for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other employees. Regulation O also places individual and aggregate limits on the amount of loans the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on the Bank's capital position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed. ENFORCEMENT. Under the FDI Act, the FRB has primary enforcement responsibility over state member banks and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including shareholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order and removal of officers and/or directors to institution of receivership or conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations. STANDARDS FOR SAFETY AND SOUNDNESS. The federal banking agencies have adopted Interagency Guidelines Prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness ("Interagency Guidelines") and a final rule to implement safety and soundness standards required under the FDI Act. The Interagency Guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. The standards set forth in the Interagency Guidelines address internal controls and information systems; internal audit system; credit underwriting; loan documentation; interest rate risk exposure; asset growth; and compensation, fees and benefits. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the Interagency Guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard, as required by the FDI Act. The final rule establishes deadlines for the submission and review of such safety and soundness compliance plans when such plans are required. FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM. FRB regulations require depositary institutions to maintain non-interest earning reserves against their transaction accounts (primarily NOW and regular checking accounts). During 2003, FRB regulations generally required that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows: for accounts aggregating $36.1 million or less (subject to adjustment by the FRB) the reserve requirement is 3%; and for accounts aggregating greater than $36.1 million, the reserve requirement is $900,000 plus 10% (subject to adjustment by the FRB between 8% and 14%) against that portion of total transaction accounts in excess of $36.1 million. The first $6.0 million of otherwise reservable balances (subject to adjustments by the FRB) were exempted from the reserve requirements. The Bank is in compliance with the foregoing requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the FRB may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements imposed by the FDIC. 6 FEDERAL AND STATE TAXATION Federal Taxation GENERAL. Patriot and its subsidiaries report their income on a consolidated basis using the accrual method of accounting and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly the Bank's reserve for bad debts. As a large commercial bank, the Bank is permitted to recognize bad debt expense based on actual charge-offs. For its 2003 taxable year, Patriot is subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 34%. DISTRIBUTIONS. Under the Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996, if the Bank makes "non-dividend distributions" to Patriot, such distributions will be considered to have been made from the Bank's unrecaptured tax bad debt reserves (including the balance of its reserves as of December 31, 1987) to the extent thereof, and then from the Bank's supplemental reserve for losses on loans, to the extent thereof, and an amount based on the amount distributed (but not in excess of the amount of such reserves) will be included in the Bank's income. Non-dividend distributions include distributions in excess of the Bank's current and accumulated earnings and profits, as calculated for federal income tax purposes, distributions in redemption of stock, and distributions in partial or complete liquidation. Dividends paid out of the Bank's current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be included in the Bank's income. The amount of additional taxable income triggered by a non-dividend is an amount that, when reduced by the tax attributable to the income, is equal to the amount of the distribution. Thus, if the Bank makes a non-dividend distribution to Patriot, approximately one and one-half times the amount of such distribution (but not in excess of the amount of such reserves) would be included in income for federal income tax purposes, assuming a 34% federal corporate income tax rate. The Bank does not intend to pay dividends that would result in a recapture of any portion of its bad debt reserves. CORPORATE ALTERNATIVE MINIMUM TAX. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") imposes a tax on a corporation's Alternative Minimum Taxable Income ("AMTI") at a rate of 20% if such Alternative Minimum Tax ("AMT") exceeds the income tax the corporation would otherwise pay for the taxable year. Only 90% of AMTI can be offset by net operating loss carryovers. AMTI is increased by an amount equal to 75% of the amount by which the Bank's adjusted current earnings exceeds its AMTI (determined without regard to this preference and prior to reduction for net operating losses). DIVIDENDS RECEIVED DEDUCTION AND OTHER MATTERS. Patriot may exclude from its income 100% of dividends received from the Bank as a member of the same affiliated group of corporations. The corporate dividends received deduction is generally 70% in the case of dividends received from unaffiliated corporations, except that if Patriot owns more than 20% of the stock of a corporation distributing a dividend, 80% of any dividends received may be deducted. State Taxation COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA. The Bank is subject to a "Bank Shares Tax" that is imposed on every bank having capital stock located within Pennsylvania. The Bank Shares Tax is based on the value of the bank's shares as of the preceding January 1st. The taxable amount is computed by adding the book value of capital stock paid in, the book value of the surplus and the book value of undivided profits, and then deducting from that total an amount equal to the percentage that the book value of the bank's federal obligations and state obligations bears to the book value of the bank's total assets. This value is calculated on the basis of the current year and the preceding five years, but, if a bank has not been in existence for six years, the taxable amount is computed by adding the value for the number of years that the bank has been in existence and dividing the resulting sum by that number of years. The Bank Shares Tax rate is 1.25% of the taxable amount. Banks subject to the Bank Shares Tax are exempt from all other corporate taxes imposed by Pennsylvania.

For the year ended December 31, 2003, Patriot reported net income of $8,635,000 or $1.28 diluted earnings per share. For the year ended December 31, 2002, Patriot reported net income of $7,698,000 or $1.14 diluted earnings per share which has been restated to reflect the effect of the 10% stock dividend paid in April 2003. Return on average equity was 13.12% for 2003 and 12.05% for 2002. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income for 2003 was $31,401,000 compared to $29,256,000 in 2002. The yield on Patriot's interest-earning assets decreased to 6.63% for 2003 compared to 7.28% for 2002. The decrease in yield on Patriot's interest-earning assets is a result of a decrease in interest rates. The cost of Patriot's interest-bearing liabilities was 2.99% for 2003 compared to 3.98% for 2002. The decrease in funding costs resulted from generally lower interest rates coupled with reductions in higher cost borrowings. Overall, Patriot's net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets) increased to 3.66% for 2003 compared to 3.35% in 2002. Interest on loans was $42,839,000 for 2003 compared to $49,020,000 for 2002. The average balance of loans in 2003 was $598,653,000 with an average yield of 7.18% compared to an average balance of $635,788,000 with an average yield of 7.73% in 2002. The decrease in average balance of loans is a result of Patriot allowing residential mortgages to run-off, offset by growth in consumer and commercial loans. The decrease in average yield is primarily a result of a decrease in market rates. Interest on Patriot's investment portfolio (investment and mortgage-backed securities) was $16,384,000 for 2003 compared to $17,021,000 for 2002. The average balance of the investment portfolio was $335,999,000 with an average yield of 5.69% for 2003 compared to an average balance of $296,079,000 with an average yield of 6.41% for 2002. The increase in average balance is primarily due to Patriot investing funds from the repayment of residential mortgage loans. The decrease in average yield is related to new security purchases at lower yields as well as general decreases in market rates on adjustable rate securities. Interest on total deposits was $12,376,000 for 2003 compared to $14,479,000 for 2002. The average balance of total deposits was $586,524,000 with an average cost of 2.11% for 2003 compared to an average balance of $518,051,000 with an average cost of 2.79% for 2002. The increase in average balance is primarily the result of aggressive marketing of money market and transaction-based deposit accounts through new and existing branches. The overall decrease in the average cost on deposits was primarily the result of a decrease in market rates, a reduction in higher costing certificate of deposit accounts and emphasis placed on lower cost core deposit accounts. Interest on borrowings was $15,461,000 in 2003 compared to $22,379,000 in 2002. The average balance of borrowings was $343,054,000 with an average cost of 4.51% for 2003 compared to an average balance of $407,687,000 with an average cost of 5.49% for 2002. The decrease in average balance was primarily due to borrowings being replaced with branch deposit growth. The decrease in the cost of borrowings was the result of a decrease in interest rates and the result of restructured borrowed funds with a higher cost of funds. During 2003, Patriot prepaid $55,000,0000 in FHLB borrowings and restructured $72,000,000 in FHLB borrowings. On June 20, 2003, Patriot entered into three pay variable, receive fixed interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of designated fixed rate FHLB advances. The notional amount of these contracts totals $72 million and they mature on May 29, 2008. The company has agreed to pay 3 month LIBOR plus a spread, with quarterly reset, and to receive a fixed rate equal to the rate paid on the individual FHLB advances. Since the terms of interest rate swaps mirror those of the hedged items, FHLB advances, Patriot has adopted the short cut method, as prescribed in SFAS No. 133, to account for these transactions. Therefore, no hedge ineffectiveness was recognized in earnings related to these fair value hedges. 16 SPREAD ANALYSIS. The following table sets forth Patriot's average balances and the yields on those balances for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001. The yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown, except where noted otherwise. The yields and costs include fees, which are considered adjustments to yields.

--------------- (1) Includes securities available for sale and held to maturity (2001 only) and unamortized discounts and premiums. The yield is presented on a tax equivalent basis for tax beneficial investments. The amount of tax beneficial interest associated with securities for 2003, 2002, and 2001 was $2,719,000, $1,956,000 and $1,250,000, respectively. (2) Amount is net of deferred loan and lease fees, loans in process, discounts and premiums, and allowance for loan and lease losses and includes loans held for sale and non-performing loans and leases for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued. The yield is presented on a tax equivalent basis for tax beneficial loans. The amount of tax beneficial interest associated with loans and leases for 2003, 2002, and 2001 was $167,000, $131,000, and $115,000 respectively. (3) Includes short-term, long-term and trust preferred borrowings. (4) Net interest rate spread represents the difference between the average yield on total assets and the average cost of total liabilities and equity. (5) Net interest margin represents the tax-equivalent net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. The impact of the tax-equivalent calculation increased the net interest margin by 31, 23 and 14 basis points in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. 17 RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS. The following table presents the extent to which net interest income changed due to changes in interest rates and changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each category with respect to changes attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume), and the net change. The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionally to the changes due to volume and the changes due to rate.

NON-INTEREST INCOME. Total non-interest income was $11,629,000 for 2003 compared to $7,241,000 for 2002. The increase in non-interest income was derived primarily from three sources: Non-interest income from gains on the sale of loans and leases was $2,326,000 for 2003 compared to $1,928,000 for 2002. This increase was primarily due to gains recognized during 2003 on the sale of the guaranteed portion of Small Business Administration (SBA) loans. Patriot did not sell SBA loans during 2002. Patriot Advisors, a subsidiary of Patriot Bank Corp., provided $2,333,000 in non-interest income in 2003 compared to $294,000 in 2002. This increase in Patriot Advisors' non-interest income can be attributed to the acquisitions of Bonds & Paulus Associates, Inc. and Pension Benefits, Inc. which occurred during the first quarter of 2003 as well as the acquistion of Tyler Wealth Counselors, which occurred during the third quarter of 2003. Non-interest income from service fees on deposits was $3,657,000 in 2003 compared to $2,847,000 for 2002. The increase in service fees on deposits was a result of the implementation of an overdraft privilege product which was implemented during the third quarter of 2002. In 2003, Patriot recognized income on this product for the whole year versus a partial year in 2002. During 2003, Patriot prepaid $55,000,0000 in FHLB borrowings and recorded a $724,000 loss, representing the prepayment penalties for repaying these advances early. In conjunction with these transactions, Patriot sold $30,859,000 of securities and recognized $932,000 of investment gains. Overall, the combination of these transactions allowed Patriot to improve its interest rate risk profile. 19 NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Total non-interest expense was $28,423,000 for 2003 compared to $22,664,000 in 2002. Of this increase in non-interest expense during 2003, $3,859,000 was primarily due to higher compensation costs associated with increases in staffing. Patriot's three acquisitons during 2003 as well as service requirements associated with branch deposit and commercial lending growth caused the increases in staffing. Other non-interest expenses such as occupancy and equipment, advertising, deposit processing and office supplies and postage were also higher during 2003 as compared to 2002, which can be attributed to normal recurring expenses associated with Patriot's three acquisitions in 2003 and the addition of 2 new branches in 2003. INCOME TAX PROVISION. The income tax provision was $2,042,000 for 2003 compared to $2,060,000 for 2002. The effective tax rate for 2003 was 19.13% compared to 21.11% for 2002. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due to greater tax exempt income from tax-beneficial securities. FINANCIAL CONDITION LOAN AND LEASE PORTFOLIO. Patriot's primary portfolio loan products are commercial loans and leases and home equity loans on existing owner-occupied residential real estate. Patriot also offers residential construction loans and other consumer loans. Patriot has sold substantially all new residential mortgage (fixed and adjustable rate) originations since 2000. COMMERCIAL LENDING. Patriot originates commercial loans with an emphasis on small businesses, professionals and entrepreneurs within Patriot's local markets. Most of Patriot's commercial loan relationships have exposure of $500,000 or less. Commercial loans are generally secured by real estate and personal guarantees. COMMERCIAL LEASING. Patriot's subsidiary, Patriot Commercial Leasing Company (PCLC), is a small-ticket commercial leasing company. PCLC originates leases to businesses predominantly located on the East Coast. Transaction sizes generally range from $5,000 to $500,000 with the average transaction being less than $50,000. PCLC is owned 100% by Patriot Bank. PCLC's leases are considered financing leases for accounting purposes. CONSUMER LENDING. Patriot offers variable rate (based upon prime rate) home equity lines of credit and fixed-rate home equity loans, which are generally secured by single-family, owner-occupied residential properties. Patriot also offers a variety of other consumer loans, which primarily consist of installment loans secured by automobiles, credit cards, unsecured lines of credit and other loans secured by deposit accounts. MORTGAGE LENDING. Patriot offers both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences, primarily owner-occupied, located in Patriot's primary market area. Patriot generally underwrites its first mortgage loans in accordance with underwriting standards set by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. (FHLMC) and the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). Patriot also originates residential construction loans. Substantially all of the residential mortgage loans originated by Patriot are sold into the secondary markets; therefore, Patriot's mortgage loan portfolio consists mainly of seasoned mortgage loans originated prior to 2000. At December 31, 2003, Patriot's total loan and lease portfolio was $625,499,000 compared to $618,217,000 at December 31, 2002. The increase in the portfolio is primarily the result of an increase in commercial lending relationships offset by Patriot allowing residential mortgages to runoff. 20 The following table sets forth the composition of Patriot's loan and lease portfolio in dollar amounts and in percentages of the respective portfolios at the dates indicated:

--------------- (1) Patriot's focus is on growing its commercial loan, lease and consumer portfolios while allowing mortgage loans to run off. There tends to be more deferred costs associated with originating commercial loans and leases as compared to originating mortgage loans, which have more deferred fees. As a result, Patriot's position transitioned $(2,136,000) and $(730,000) in net deferred fees in 1999 and 2000, respectively, to $933,000, $1,566,000 and $1,146,000 in net deferred costs in 2001, 2002 and 2003 respectively. 21 LOAN AND LEASE MATURITY.

CREDIT QUALITY. Patriot's Asset Review and Credit Administration Committee establishes acceptable credit risks to be undertaken, the policies and procedures to be used to control credit risk and the corrective actions to be taken when credit challenges are encountered. This committee also reviews credit quality on a monthly basis, classifies assets in accordance with applicable management guidelines and regulations and makes recommendations to Patriot's Board of Directors with regard to placing assets on non-accrual status, charge-offs and write-downs and the appropriate level of credit reserves. Patriot accrues interest on all loans and leases until management determines that the collection of interest is doubtful (generally when a loan or lease is 90 days or more delinquent). Upon discontinuance of interest accrual, all unpaid accrued interest is generally reversed. Patriot generally requires appraisals on an annual basis on foreclosed properties. Patriot generally conducts inspections on foreclosed properties on at least a quarterly basis. At December 31, 2003, non-performing assets ("NPAs") were $4,146,000 or 0.40% of total assets compared to $6,672,000 or 0.67% of total assets at December 31, 2002. Patriot controls its level of non-performing assets by quickly identifying problem assets and resolving them in an expedient manner. At December 31, 2003, Patriot had no restructured loans within the meaning of SFAS No. 15 and no potential problem loans within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission Guide 3. 22 The following table sets forth information regarding non-performing assets:

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES. The allowance for credit losses is based on management's ongoing evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio and reflects an amount considered by management to be its best estimate of known and inherent losses in the portfolio. Management considers a variety of factors when establishing the allowance, such as the impact of current economic conditions, diversification of the portfolios, delinquency statistics, results of loan review and related classifications, and historic loss rates. In addition, certain individual loans which management has identified as problematic are specifically provided for, based upon an evaluation of the borrower's perceived ability to pay, the estimated adequacy of the underlying collateral and other relevant factors. In addition, regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations, periodically review the allowance for credit losses. They may require additions to the allowance based upon their judgements about information available to them at the time of examination. Although provisions have been established and segmented by type of loan, based upon management's assessment of their differing inherent loss characteristics, the entire allowance for losses on loans is available to absorb further loan losses in any category. Management uses significant estimates to determine the allowance for credit losses. Since the allowance for credit losses is dependent, to a great extent, on conditions that may be beyond Patriot's control, it is at least reasonably possible that management's estimate of the allowance for credit losses and actual results could differ in the near term. 23 Patriot's percentage of loss reserves to total loans and leases of 1.10% remained relatively consistent with 2002. During 2003, Patriot's loan and lease portfolios increased from $618,217,000 at December 31, 2002, to $625,499,000. The increase in the portfolios is attributed to growth in the commercial and consumer loan and leasing portfolios offset by the run off of mortgage loans. Based on management's evaluation of the impact of current economic conditions, diversification of the portfolios, delinquency and non-performing loan statistics, results of loan review and related classifications, and historic loss rates, management determined a provision of $3,930,000 was necessary to adequately address the losses inherent in Patriot's loan and lease portfolios. Patriot believes that the allowance provides for known and inherent credit losses at December 31, 2003. Patriot's total loans and leases consist of four distinct portfolios. Each of which is monitored and analyzed seperately. Residential mortgage loans comprise 14.32% of total loans and leases. The mortgage loan portfolio is seasoned as Patriot has been in the mortgage lending business for many years and has sold substantially all new mortgage originations in the past three years. The level of non-performing assets in the mortgage portfolio decreased during 2003. The ratio of non-performing assets to the total mortgage portfolio decreased from 0.88% at December 31, 2002 to 0.41% at December 31, 2003. Patriot's mortgage loans are generally well collateralized and historically Patriot has experienced minimal losses on these loans. Because of Patriot's consistent history in mortgage lending and the long-term nature of this portfolio, Patriot predominately relies upon an internal regression analysis that uses historical data to estimate losses inherent in the portfolio. Consumer loans comprise 16.71% of total loans and leases and consist mostly of home equity loans and home equity lines of credit. The consumer loan portfolio also is mature as Patriot has been in the consumer lending business for many years. As with mortgage lending, Patriot predominantly uses an internal regression analysis that uses historical data to estimate losses inherent in the portfolio. During the third quarter of 2003, Patriot's internal control process uncovered what is believed to be a defalcation perpetrated by a mid-level supervisory employee within Patriot's credit card operation. The defalcation includes an alleged theft and the alleged falsification and destruction of accounting records as well as the concealment of credit card delinquencies and bankruptcies. The alleged defalcation included the concealment of approximately $460,000 of unsecured customer bankruptcies, which, since they were not material to any prior period, were charged off during the third quarter of 2003 through Patriot's loan loss reserve. An additional $299,000 of credit card delinquencies, which were subject to normal collection procedures were charged off during the fourth quarter of 2003. At December 31, 2003, there was $80,000 of delinquent credit card receivables remaining from the defalcation. Additional charge-offs may result from these delinquent accounts. Patriot has incorporated these credit card charge-offs retroactively into its regression analysis. Commercial loans comprise 55.82% of total loans and leases. Patriot entered the commercial lending business in 1996 and has grown the portfolio into a substantial portion of total loans. Patriot uses historical data to prepare regression models to monitor trends of charge-offs and recoveries and establish appropriate allowance levels. Patriot also closely monitors local economic and business trends relative to its commercial lending portfolio to estimate the effect those trends may have on potential losses. Patriot's commercial loan portfolio contains some loans that are substantially larger than the loans within other portfolios. The potential loss associated with an individual loan could have a significant impact on the allowance and charge-off levels at Patriot. Therefore Patriot closely monitors these loans and will specifically reserve for individual loans which exhibit weakness. The ratio of non-performing assets in the commercial loan portfolio decreased from 1.23% at December 31, 2002 to 0.74% at December 31, 2003. Commercial leases comprise 13.14% of total loans and leases. Patriot entered the commercial leasing business in 1998 principally through the acquisition of KFL. Patriot's leasing portfolio has a short, approximately 3-year life. Patriot performs an internal regression analysis on this portfolio using historical data (including KFL data). Patriot also closely monitors regional and national economic business trends relative to its commercial leasing portfolio to estimate the effects those trends may have on potential losses. The ratio of non-performing assets in the leasing portfolio decreased from 1.31% at December 31, 2002 to 0.79% at December 31, 2003. 24 The following table sets forth management's allocation of the allowance for credit losses at the dates indicated:

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2003, were $17,745,000 compared to $16,839,000 at December 31, 2002. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to temporary timing differences. SECURITIES. Investment securities consist of US Treasury and government agency securities, corporate debt and equity securities. Mortgage-backed securities consist of securities generally issued by either the FHLMC, FNMA or the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"). Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") consist of securities issued by the FHLMC, FNMA or private issuers. Total investment and mortgage-backed securities at December 31, 2003, were $347,140,000 compared to $315,868,000 at December 31, 2002. The increase in investment and mortgage-backed securities is primarily due to Patriot investing funds from the repayment of residential mortgage loans. Patriot purchased $177,297,000 of investment securities, which was offset by $143,954,000 of principal repayments, sales, calls and maturities. 25 The following table sets forth certain information regarding the amortized cost and market value of investment and mortgage-backed securities at the dates indicated:

Pursuant to an interest rate risk strategy to reduce the asset sensitivity of the bank, certain adjustable rate held to maturity securities were sold during 2002. Consequently, the remaining held to maturity portfolio of $31,537,000 was reclassified to available for sale. 26 The following table sets forth certain information regarding the carrying value, weighted average yield and contractual maturities of Patriot's investment and mortgage-backed securities as of December 31, 2003.

OTHER ASSETS. Other Assets at December 31, 2003, were $6,321,000 compared to $4,743,000 at December 31, 2002. The increase in other assets was primarily attributable to adjustments to Patriot's deferred tax position related to unrealized gains on investments and mortgage backed securities available for sale. DEPOSITS. Deposits are generally attracted from within Patriot's primary market area through the offering of various deposit instruments, including checking accounts, money market accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposit and retirement savings plans. Patriot also solicits brokered deposits from various sources. Total deposits at December 31, 2003, were $613,555,000 compared to $519,120,000 at December 31, 2002. Of that increase, $97,758,000 was related to lower costing core deposits, $10,817,000 was related to brokered deposits offset by $14,140,000 of higher costing branch certificate of deposit run off. The following table sets forth the distribution of average deposit accounts for the periods indicated and the weighted average yield on each category of deposit presented:

28 FHLB ADVANCES AND FEDERAL FUNDS. Patriot utilizes borrowings as a source of funds for its growth strategy and its asset/liability management. Patriot is eligible to obtain advances from the FHLB upon the security of certain loan portfolios, mortgage-backed securities, and investment securities, provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. FHLB advances are made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The maximum amount that the FHLB will advance to member institutions fluctuates from time to time in accordance with the policies of the FHLB. Patriot also uses Federal Funds as a funding source. Federal Funds are transactions that are typically between financial institutions and are short-term unsecured borrowings. Total FHLB advances and federal funds borrowed at December 31, 2003 were $289,655,000 compared to $368,173,000 at December 31, 2002. The decrease in FHLB advances and federal funds was associated with the repayment of short-term FHLB advances. During 2003, Patriot prepaid $55,000,0000 in FHLB borrowings and restructured $72,000,000 in FHLB borrowings, which allowed Patriot to improve its interest rate risk profile. On June 20, 2003, Patriot entered into three pay variable receive fixed interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of designated fixed rate FHLB advances. The notional amount of these contracts totals $72 million and mature on May 29, 2008. The company has agreed to pay 3 month LIBOR plus a spread, with quarterly reset, and to receive a fixed rate equal to the rate paid on the individual FHLB advances. Since the terms of interest rate swaps mirror those of the hedged items, FHLB advances, Patriot has adopted the short cut method, as prescribed in SFAS No. 133, to account for these transactions. Therefore, no hedge ineffectiveness was recognized in earnings related to these fair value hedges. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Patriot uses repurchase agreements as a funding source. Repurchase agreements are generally short-term obligations collateralized by government agency and other securities. Total repurchase agreements at December 31, 2003 were $44,407,000 compared to $14,210,000 at December 31, 2002. The increase in repurchase agreements was primarily due to the addition of $33,184,000 of brokered repurchase agreements offset by a decrease in customer repurchase agreements. The increase in repurchase agreements replaced FHLB advances that were repaid during 2003. The following table presents certain information regarding borrowed funds:

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY. Total shareholders' equity was $65,743,000 at December 31, 2003, compared to $65,945,000 at December 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of the repurchase of shares of Patriot Bank Corp. common stock, a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income and cash dividends paid to shareholders offset by net income. 29 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The allowance for credit losses is based on management's ongoing evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio and reflects an amount considered by management to be its best estimate of known and inherent losses in the portfolio. Management considers a variety of factors when establishing the allowance, such as the impact of current economic conditions, diversification of the portfolios, delinquency statistics, results of loan review and related classifications, and historic loss rates. In addition, certain individual loans which management has identified as problematic are specifically provided for, based upon an evaluation of the borrower's perceived ability to pay, the estimated adequacy of the underlying collateral and other relevant factors. In addition, regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations, periodically review the allowance for credit losses. They may require additions to the allowance based upon their judgements about information available to them at the time of examination. Although provisions have been established and segmented by type of loan, based upon management's assessment of their differing inherent loss characteristics, the entire allowance for losses on loans is available to absorb further loan losses in any category. Management uses significant estimates to determine the allowance for credit losses. Since the allowance for credit losses is dependent, to a great extent, on conditions that may be beyond Patriot's control, it is at least reasonably possible that management's estimate of the allowance for credit losses and actual results could differ in the near term. INCOME TAXES Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax 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 carry forwards. 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 that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when in the judgement of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become available. Based on management's evaluation of the likelihood of realization, no valuation allowance has been established. Because the judgement about the level of future taxable income is dependent to a great extent on matters that may, at least in part be beyond Patriot's control, it is at least reasonably possible that management's judgement about the need for a valuation allowance for deferred taxes could change in the near term. REO AND OTHER REPOSSESSED PROPERTY Real estate owned is defined to include real estate Patriot acquires through foreclosure. REO is recorded on Patriot's books at the lower of Patriot's carrying value in the loan or the fair value of the property as of the date of transfer to REO. Any excess of the recorded investment in the loan over the fair market value is charged against Patriot's loan loss reserve. Other repossessed property consists mostly of leased equipment returned to Patriot at the end of the lease. The off-lease equipment is recorded on Patriot's books at the lower of Patriot's carrying value in the lease or the fair value of the equipment as of the date of transfer to other repossessed property. Any excess of the recorded investment in the lease over the fair market value is recorded as a loss. Additionally, valuation of REO and other repossessed property is dependent to a great extent on current economic, market and geographic conditions, and that may, at least in part be beyond Patriot's control. It is at least reasonably possible that management's estimates included in the valuation of REO and other repossessed property could change in the near term. Patriot's current judgement is that the valuation of REO and other repossessed property remains appropriate at December 31, 2003. 30 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES LIQUIDITY. Patriot's primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans, principal and interest payments on investment and mortgage-backed securities, FHLB advances, Federal Funds and repurchase agreements. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and investment and mortgage-backed securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit inflows and loan and mortgage-backed security prepayments are greatly influenced by economic conditions, general interest rates and competition. Therefore, Patriot manages its balance sheet to provide adequate liquidity based upon various economic, interest rate and competitive assumptions and in light of profitability measures. During 2003, $143,244,000 of liquidity was provided from the repayment and sale of securities. Additional liquidity of $94,435,000 was provided by deposit growth, $54,437,000 from the repayment of residential mortgage loans, net of new business and $30,197,000 by short-term repurchase agreements. These funds were used to purchase $177,297,000 of investment securities, repay $76,720,000 of borrowings and fund $68,395,000 of additional commercial loans, consumer loans and commercial leases, net of prepayments. At December 31, 2003, Patriot had outstanding loan commitments of $104,189,000. Patriot anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its loan commitments. Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in one year or less from December 31, 2003, totaled $106,601,000. CAPITAL RESOURCES. FDIC regulations currently require companies to maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio of not less than 3% of tier 1 capital to total adjusted assets, a tier 1 capital ratio of not less than 4% of risk-adjusted assets, and a minimum risk-based total capital ratio (based upon credit risk) of not less than 8%. The FDIC requires a minimum leverage capital requirement of 3% for institutions rated composite 1 under the CAMELS rating system. For all other institutions, the minimum leverage capital requirement is 3% plus at least an additional 1% to 2% (100 to 200 basis points). A bank is considered "well capitalized" if it maintains a minimum leverage capital ratio of not less than 5% of tier 1 capital to total adjusted assets, a tier 1 capital ratio of not less than 6% of risk adjusted assets, and a minimum risk-based total capital ratio (based upon credit risk) of not less than 10%. At December 31, 2003, Patriot Bank's and Patriot Bank Corp.'s capital ratios exceeded all requirements to be considered well capitalized. The following table sets forth the capital ratios of Patriot Bank Corp., Patriot Bank and the current regulatory requirements at December 31, 2003:

31 CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS. Patriot enters into contractual obligations in the normal course of business as a source of funds for its asset growth and its asset liability management, and to meet required capital needs. These obligations require Patriot to make cash payments over time as detailed in the table below. (For further information regarding Patriot's contractual obligations, refer to footnotes 8 through 10 and 16 of our Consolidated Financial Statements, herein.)

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS. Patriot is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, including commitments to extend credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of Patriot's involvement in particular classes of financial instruments. Patriot's exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. Patriot uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, Patriot requires collateral to support financial instruments with credit risk. For interest rate swaps, the contract or notional amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss. Patriot controls the credit risk of its interest rate swaps through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. For further information regarding Patriot's off-balance sheet risk, refer to footnotes 15 and 17 of our Consolidated Financial Statements, herein.): The following table represents Patriot's commercial off-balance sheet commitments by maturity:

32 MANAGEMENT OF INTEREST RATE RISK. The principal objective of Patriot's interest rate risk management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk included in certain on and off balance sheet accounts, determine the level of risk appropriate given Patriot's business focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements and performance objectives, and manage the risk consistent with Board approved guidelines. Through such management, Patriot seeks to reduce the vulnerability of its net interest income to changes in interest rates. Patriot's Board of Directors has established an Asset/Liability Committee, which is responsible for reviewing its asset/liability and interest rate position and making decisions involving asset/liability considerations. The Asset/Liability Committee meets regularly and reports trends and Patriot's interest rate risk position to the Board of Directors. Patriot uses three complementary methods to analyze and measure interest rate risk as part of the overall management of interest rate risk. They are income simulation modeling, estimates of economic value of equity, and static gap analysis. The combination of these three methods provides a reasonably comprehensive summary of the level of interest rate risk of Patriot when exposed to time factors and changes in interest rate environments. Income simulation modeling is utilized in measuring Patriot's interest rate risk and managing its interest rate sensitivity. Income simulation considers not only the impact of changing market interest rates on forecasted net interest income, but also other factors such as yield curve relationships, the volume and mix of assets and liabilities, customer preferences and general market conditions. Through the use of income simulation modeling the company has calculated an estimate of net interest income for the year ending December 31, 2003, based upon the assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments in existence at December 31, 2002. Patriot has also estimated changes to that estimated net interest income based upon interest rates rising or falling in monthly increments ("rate ramps"). Rate ramps assume that all interest rates increase or decrease in monthly increments evenly throughout the period modeled, with a floor of 25bp. The following table reflects the estimated percentage change in estimated net interest income for the year ending December 31, 2003 resulting from changes in interest rates.

Economic value of equity ("EVE") estimates the discounted present value of asset and liability cash flows. Discount rates are based upon market prices for comparable assets and liabilities. As part of this evaluation the company has contracted with an independent consultant to perform an extensive core deposit analysis to appropriately estimate the discounted present value of the retail deposit franchise. Upward and downward rate shocks are used to measure volatility in relation to such interest rate movements in relation to an unchanged environment. This method of measurement primarily evaluates the longer term repricing risks and options in Patriot's balance sheet. Patriot has established policy limits for upward and downward rate shocks of 20% of economic value of equity at risk for every 100 basis points of interest rate shock. Additionally Patriot has a policy limit that the ratio of EVE adjusted equity to EVE adjusted assets will be maintained above a 5% ratio. The following table reflects the estimated economic value of equity at risk and the ratio of EVE adjusted equity to EVE adjusted assets at December 31, 2003, resulting from shocks to interest rates.

33 The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest rate sensitive" and by monitoring an institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap." An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or re-price within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or re-pricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. The following table summarizes the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2003, which are anticipated, based upon certain assumptions, to re-price or mature in each of the future time periods shown. Loan amounts reflect principal balances expected to be repaid and/or re-priced as a result of contractual amortization and anticipated prepayments of adjustable-rate loans and fixed-rate loans and as a result of contractual rate adjustments on adjustable-rate loans. Estimated prepayment rates were applied to mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities based upon industry expectations. Core deposit decay rates have been estimated based upon a historical analysis of core deposit trends. With the exceptions noted above, the amount of assets and liabilities shown which re-price or mature during a particular period were determined in accordance with the earlier of term to re-pricing or the contractual maturity of the asset or liability. The table sets forth the gap and cumulative gap as a percentage of total assets at December 31, 2003:

As shown above, the company has a positive cumulative gap (interest sensitive assets are greater than interest sensitive liabilities) within the next year, which generally indicates that an increase in rates may lead to an increase in net interest income and a decrease in rates may lead to a decrease in net interest income. Interest sensitivity gap analysis measures whether assets or liabilities may reprice but does not capture the ability to reprice based on market conditions or the magnitude of the change in the repricing on assets or liabilities. Thus indications based on a positive or negative gap position need to be analyzed in conjunction with other interest rate risk management tools. Patriot's management believes that the assumptions and combination of methods utilized in evaluating estimated net interest income are reasonable; however, the interest rate sensitivity of Patriot's assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments as well as the estimated effect of changes in interest rates on estimated net interest income could vary substantially if different assumptions are used or actual experience differs from the experience on which the assumptions were based. 34 QUARTERLY DATA The following table presents selected quarterly consolidated financial data:

35 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001 SUMMARY. For the year ended December 31, 2002, Patriot reported net income of $7,698,000 or $1.14 diluted earnings per share. For the year ended December 31, 2001, Patriot reported net income of $6,099,000 or $.92 diluted earnings per share. Return on average equity was 12.05% for 2002 and 10.52% for 2001. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income for 2002 was $29,256,000 compared to $23,641,000 in 2001. The yield on Patriot's interest-earning assets decreased to 7.28% for the year 2002 compared to 7.71% for 2001. The decrease in yield on Patriot's interest-earning assets is a result of a decrease in interest rates. The cost of Patriot's interest-bearing liabilities was 3.98% for 2002 compared to 5.24% for 2001. The decrease in funding costs resulted from generally lower interest rates coupled with reductions in higher cost borrowings. Overall, Patriot's net interest margin increased to 3.35% for 2002 compared to 2.50% in 2001. Interest on loans was $49,020,000 for 2002 compared to $54,122,000 for 2001. The average balance of loans in 2002 was $635,788,000 with an average yield of 7.73% compared to an average balance of $653,460,000 with an average yield of 8.30% in 2001. The decrease in the average balance of loans is a result of Patriot allowing residential mortgages to run-off, offset by increases in commercial loans and leases. The decrease in average yield is primarily a result of a decrease in interest rates. Interest on Patriot's investment portfolio (investment and mortgage-backed securities) was $17,021,000 for 2002 compared to $21,220,000 for 2001. The average balance of the investment portfolio was $296,079,000 with an average yield of 6.41% for 2002 compared to an average balance of $333,872,000 with an average yield of 6.73% for 2001. The decrease in average balance is primarily due to Patriot allowing the investment portfolio to amortize so that it can be replaced with generally higher-yielding commercial loans and leases. The decrease in average yield is related to general decreases in market rates on securities. Interest on total deposits was $14,479,000 for 2002 compared to $27,690,000 for 2001. The average balance of total deposits was $518,051,000 with an average cost of 2.79% for 2002 compared to an average balance of $575,235,000 with an average cost of 4.81% for 2001. The decrease in the average balance of deposits is primarily the result of a decrease in Patriot's jumbo certificate of deposits, offset by increases in branch deposits which consists of money market accounts, transaction based deposit accounts and other certificates of deposits. The average balance on jumbo certificates of deposit decreased to $32,529,000 in 2002 compared to $105,530,000 in 2001. The average balance of retail deposits (total deposits less jumbo certificate of deposits) was $485,522,000 with an average cost of 2.68% for 2002 compared to an average balance of $469,705,000 with an average cost of 4.34% for 2001. The increase in average balance of retail deposits is the result of growth in savings, checking and money market accounts offset by a decrease in branch certificates of deposit. The overall decrease in the average cost on deposits is primarily the result of a decrease in interest rates and emphasis placed on lower cost transaction based deposit accounts. Interest on borrowings was $22,379,000 in 2002 compared to $24,519,000 in 2001. The average balance of borrowings was $407,687,000 with an average cost of 5.49% for 2002 compared to an average balance of $421,084,000 with an average cost of 5.82% for 2001. The decrease in the average balance of borrowings is primarily due to the use of funds provided by the run-off of the mortgage loan portfolio and growth in Patriot's branch deposits to repay borrowings, offset by growth in Patriot's commercial loan portfolio. The decrease in average cost is due to lower interest rates. PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES. The provision for credit losses was $4,075,000 for 2002 compared to $2,000,000 for 2001. See "Credit Quality" for a detailed discussion of Patriot's asset quality and reserving methodology. NON-INTEREST INCOME. Total non-interest income was $7,241,000 for 2002 compared to $7,892,000 for 2001. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to $137,000 in losses recognized on the sale of investments securities in 2002 compared to $558,000 in gains in 2001. Patriot adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as of January 1, 2001. The cumulative effect of the adoption was a $204,000 decrease to consolidated income, net of $105,000 of tax benefit, resulting from the sale of securities transferred into "Available for Sale" during the first quarter in 2001. Other recurring non-interest income including loan and deposit fees and mortgage banking gains remained consistent in 2002 compared to 2001. 36 NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Total non-interest expense was $22,664,000 for 2002 compared to $20,768,000 for 2001. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to higher compensation costs due to increases in staffing associated with branch deposit and commercial lending growth offset by lower amortization costs. Patriot's tax effected efficiency ratio, was 58.94% in 2002 compared to 63.94% in 2001. The tax equivalent efficiency ratio is calculated by taking non-interest expense divided by non-interest income and net interest income before provision for credit losses. Net interest income before provision is adjusted to take into consideration tax beneficial investments and loans. INCOME TAX PROVISION. The income tax provision was $2,060,000 for 2002 compared to $2,462,000 for 2001. The effective tax rate for 2002 was 21.11% compared to 28.09% for 2001. The decrease in the effective tax rate is due to greater tax exempt interest from tax-exempt securities offset by the elimination of non-deductible goodwill. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The discussion concerning the effects of interest rate changes on Patriot's estimated net interest income for the year ending December 31, 2002, set forth under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Management of Interest Rate Risk" in Item 7 hereof, is incorporated herein by reference. 37 ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Patriot Bank Corp. ("Patriot") is responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of its published financial statements as of December 31, 2003, and the year then ended. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and as such, include amounts, some of which are based on judgments and estimates of management. INTERNAL CONTROLS Management of Patriot is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting presented in conformity with both accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, including controls over the safeguarding of assets, and the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council instructions for Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Report Instructions). This internal control contains monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies identified. There are inherent limitations in any internal control, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time. Management assessed Patriot's internal control over financial reporting presented in conformity with both accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, including controls over the safeguarding of assets, and call report instructions as of December 31, 2003. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control -- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2003, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting presented in conformity with both accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, including controls over the safeguarding of assets, and Call Report Instructions. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS Management is also responsible for compliance with the federal and state laws and regulations concerning dividend restrictions and federal laws and regulations concerning loans to insiders designated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as safety and soundness laws and regulations. Management assessed its compliance with the designated laws and regulations relating to safety and soundness. Based on this assessment, management believes Patriot complied, in all significant respects, with the designated laws and regulations relating to safety and soundness for the year ended December 31, 2003. /s/ Richard A.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Patriot as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As discussed in Notes 2 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, Patriot adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in 2002 and SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities in 2001.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. 45 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES In December 2003, Patriot Bank Corp. ("Patriot") and Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc. ("Susquehanna") announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Susquehanna will acquire Patriot in a stock and cash transaction valued at $212 million, based on Susquehanna's market price as of the date of the agreement. The transaction, unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, will enhance Susquehanna's presence in Pennsylvania, particularly in the high-growth counties of Berks, Chester, Lehigh, Montgomery and Northampton. Upon completion of the transaction, Susquehanna will become the fifth largest banking company headquartered in Pennsylvania with total assets of over $7 billion. Under the terms of the merger agreement, shareholders of Patriot will be entitled to elect to receive in exchange for shares of Patriot common stock either $30.00 in cash, 1.143 common shares of Susquehanna or a combination thereof. Patriot shareholder elections are subject to allocation procedures. The application of these procedures will result in the exchange of 20 percent of the Patriot shares and options for cash, and the remaining Patriot shares and options will be exchanged for Susquehanna common stock or converted to Susquehanna options, as appropriate. Based upon the stated value of $30.00 per share, the transaction price represents 298 percent of Patriot's book value and 21.4 times Patriot's 2004 earnings per share estimate as reported by First Call. It is anticipated that the transaction will be completed during the second quarter of 2004, pending regulatory approvals and the approval of shareholders of Patriot and Susquehanna. The following is a description of the significant accounting policies of Patriot and its subsidiaries. Such accounting and reporting policies conform with generally accepted accounting principles and predominant practices within the financial institution industry. Patriot, through its subsidiaries, offers a broad range of lending, depository and related financial services to small businesses and consumers primarily through 19 financial services offices located in Berks, Chester, Lehigh, Montgomery and Northampton counties in Pennsylvania and through direct mail and various electronic and telephonic means. Patriot Bank principally competes with other banking and financial institutions in its primary market communities. Commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, brokerage firms, asset management companies, mutual funds and money market funds actively compete for deposits and loans. Such institutions, as well as consumer finance and insurance companies, may be considered competitors of Patriot with respect to one or more of the services they render. BASIS OF FINANCIAL PRESENTATION The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the parent company, Patriot Bank Corp. and its subsidiaries: Patriot Bank and its subsidiaries, Marathon Management Company, Patriot Investment & Insurance Company, Patriot Commercial Leasing Company, Inc., Patriot Investment Company, and Patriot Advisors, Inc. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The principal estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the allowance for credit losses, valuation of deferred tax assets, and other real estate owned. 46 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendments of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including derivatives embedded in other contracts and hedging activities. This Statement amends Statement No. 133 for decisions made by the FASB as part of its Derivatives Implementation Group process. This Statement also amends Statement No. 133 to incorporate clarifications of the definition of a derivative. This Statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified and hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of this Statement did not have an impact on Patriot's earnings, financial condition, or equity. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Some of the provisions of this Statement are consistent with the current definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements. The remaining provisions of this Statement are consistent with the Board's proposal to revise that definition to encompass certain obligations that a reporting entity can or must settle by issuing its own equity shares, depending on the nature of the relationship established between the holder and the issuer. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise, is effective at the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003. The adoption of this Statement did not have an impact on Patriot's earnings, financial condition, or equity. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. (FIN) 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. This Interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. This Interpretation does not prescribe a specific approach for subsequently measuring the guarantor's recognized liability over the term of the related guarantee. This Interpretation also incorporates, without change, the guidance in FASB Interpretation No. 34, Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, which is being superseded. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this Interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantor's fiscal year-end. There was no impact on earnings, financial condition or equity upon adoption of FIN 45. The disclosure requirements in this Interpretation are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of the disclosure requirements of FIN 45 did not have an impact on the financial statements or notes to the financial statements. In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," which addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity through means other than voting rights and accordingly should consolidate the entity. FIN 46 Revised (FIN 46R), issued in December 2003, replaces FIN 46. FIN 46R requires public entities to apply FIN 46 or FIN 46R to all entities that are considered special-purpose entities in practice and under the FASB literature that was applied before the issuance of FIN 46 by the end of the first reporting period that ends after December 15, 2003. For any variable interest entities (VIE) that must be consolidated under FIN 46R, the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests of the VIE initially would be measured at their carrying amounts with any difference between the net amount added to the balance sheet and any previously recognized interest being recognized as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. If determining the carrying amounts is not practicable, fair value at the date FIN 46R first applies may be used to measure the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest of the VIE. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on Patriot's consolidated earnings, financial condition, or equity, nor has there been any additional requirement for disclosure. 47 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) In December 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." The EITF addresses disclosure requirements regarding information about temporarily impaired investments. The requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2003 for all entities that have debt or marketable equity securities with market values below carrying values. The requirements apply to investments in debt and marketable equity securities that are accounted for under SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." The requirements apply only to annual financial statements. As of December 31, 2003, Patriot has included the required disclosures in their financial statements. In December 2003, the AICPA's Accounting Standards Executive Committee (AcSEC) issued SOP 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. The SOP is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15,2004, with early adoption encouraged. A certain transition provision applies for certain aspects of loans currently within the scope of Practice Bulletin 6, Amortization of Discounts on Certain Acquired Loans. The SOP 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 (loans) acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. It includes loans acquired in business combinations and applies to all nongovernmental entities, including not-for-profit organizations. The SOP does not apply to loans originated by the entity. The adoption of this Statement did not have an impact on Patriot's earnings, financial condition, or equity. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -- Transition and Disclosure. This statement amends FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The requirements of Statement No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15,2002, except for financial reports containing condensed financial statements for interim periods. Patriot continues to account for stock based compensation under APB No. 25. If Statement No. 123 would have been applied it would have had the following impact:

On April 22, 2003, the FASB announced its intention to require that all companies expense the value of employee stock options. The FASB plans to issue a new exposure draft that could become effective in 2004. Until the new Statement is issued, the provisions of Statement No. 123 remain in effect. 48 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on hand, cash items in process of collection, amounts due from banks, and interest earning deposits in other financial institutions. Interest-earning deposits consist of deposit accounts with the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Pittsburgh and deposits with other financial institutions generally having maturities of three months or less. SECURITIES Securities for which Patriot has the intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity and reported at amortized cost. Securities expected to be held for an indefinite period of time are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity, net of estimated income taxes. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling are classified as trading and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Patriot has no securities held for trading. Gains or losses on the sales of securities are recognized at trade date utilizing the specific identification method. The amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts on Patriot's investment securities are accounted for using a method, which approximates a level yield based on principal amortizations or call dates on non-amortizing callable securities LOANS HELD FOR SALE Loans held for sale consist of residential mortgage loans originated by Patriot. They are recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value on an aggregate basis. LOANS, LEASES AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at unpaid principal balances and net of deferred loan origination fees and discounts. Interest is accrued and credited to operations based upon the principal amount of loans outstanding. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans, adjusted for estimated prepayments based on Patriot's historical prepayment experience. Patriot discontinues the amortization of deferred fees and costs on non-accrual loans. Direct finance leases have terms ranging from three to five years. Under direct finance lease accounting, the balance sheet includes the gross minimum lease payments receivable, unguaranteed estimated residual values of the leased equipment, and capitalized indirect costs, reduced by unearned lease income. The lease residual values represent the expected proceeds from the sale of leased equipment at the end of the initial term of the lease and are determined on the basis of analyses prepared by Patriot based upon professional appraisals, historical experience and industry data. Management reviews the estimated residual values on a periodic basis, and impairments in value, if any, are recognized as an immediate charge to income. Management's evaluation of the allowance for credit losses includes, among other factors, an analysis of historical loss rates, by category, applied to current loan and lease totals. However, actual losses may be higher or lower than historical trends, which vary. Actual losses on specified problem loans and leases, which also are provided for in the valuation, may vary from estimated loss percentages, which are established based upon a limited number of potential loss classifications. 49 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) An allowance for credit losses is maintained at a level that represents management's best estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan and lease portfolios. Management's periodic evaluation of the allowance for credit losses is based upon evaluation of individual loans and leases, the overall risk characteristics of the various portfolio segments, regression analyses using past loss experience, current and projected financial status and creditworthiness of its borrowers, the adequacy of collateral, the level and nature of non-performing loans, current economic conditions, the results of the most recent regulatory examination and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective. While management uses the best information available to make such evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for credit losses. Such agencies may require Patriot to recognize additions to the allowance for credit losses based on their judgments of information which is available to them at the time of their examinations. Impaired loans, as defined by SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at a loan's effective interest rate, or at a loan's observable market price or fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is considered to be impaired if upon management's assessment of the relevant facts and circumstances, it is probable that Patriot will be unable to collect all proceeds due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Uncollectible interest on loans and leases that are generally past due ninety days or greater is charged off. Loans are returned to an accrual status when payments become current and other factors indicating doubtful collectibility cease to exist. Patriot records payments on non-accrual loans according to the loan amortization schedule, therefore, recognizing interest income at the time of payment. PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT Land is carried at cost. Buildings, leasehold improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. INCOME TAXES Deferred income taxes are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Prior periods' earnings per share calculations have been restated to reflect stock splits and stock dividends. GOODWILL Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of identifiable net assets acquired through purchase acquisitions. In accordance with Statement No. 142, goodwill is no longer amortized but is subject to periodic impairment testing. Prior to the adoption of Statement No. 142, goodwill was amortized straight-line based on a 15-year useful life. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income. 50 PATRIOT BANK CORP.

At December 31, 2003, the Patriot's investment portfolio had 174 holdings with an estimated market value of $347,140,000 and unrealized losses of $2,593,000. Of the 174 holdings, 27 securities, consisting of government agency, municipal, and mortgage-backed securities, preferred stock and common stock litigation warrants, carried unrealized losses for less than 12 months and 10 securities, consisting of trust preferred and mortgage-backed securities, carried unrealized losses for 12 months or longer.

On a quarterly basis the company performs a detailed analysis on the trust preferred portfolio to determine the underlying credit quality of the issuers and their ability to continue to meet obligations. As of December 31, 2003, management has determined that there is no impairment other than temporary. 54 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 4 -- SECURITIES (CONTINUED) The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment and mortgage-backed securities at December 31, 2003, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

For purposes of the maturity table, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on the contractual maturities. The mortgage-backed securities may mature earlier than their contractual maturities because of principal prepayments. Proceeds from sales of available for sale investment and mortgage-backed securities and the realized gross gains and losses from those sales are as follows:

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 4 -- SECURITIES (CONTINUED) During 2002, Patriot sold certain securities classified as held to maturity as part of an interest rate risk strategy.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 10 -- JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES On May 29, 1997, Patriot issued $19,000,000 of 10.30% junior subordinated debentures to Patriot Capital Trust I, a Delaware Business Trust, in which Patriot owns all of the common equity. The Trust issued $19,000,000 of preferred securities to investors, secured by the junior subordinated debentures and the guarantee of Patriot. Although the junior subordinated debentures will be treated as debt of Patriot, they currently qualify for Tier I capital treatment, subject to certain limitations, under risk-based capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve. The junior subordinated debentures are callable by Patriot on or after July 1, 2007, or earlier in the event the deduction of related interest for federal income taxes is prohibited, treatment as Tier I capital is no longer permitted or certain other contingencies arise. The junior subordinated debentures must be redeemed upon maturity of the debentures in 2027, or earlier, if they are called. Patriot Bank repurchased $1,000,000 and $2,500,000 of these junior subordinated debentures in the open market in 2001 and 2002, respectively. On April 10, 2002, Patriot issued $5,000,000 of floating rate junior subordinated debt securities to Patriot Capital Trust II, a Delaware Business Trust, in which Patriot owns all of the common equity. The Trust issued $5,000,000 of preferred securities to investors, secured by the junior subordinated debentures and the guarantee of Patriot. The current rate is 5.319%. Although the junior subordinated debentures will be treated as debt of Patriot, they currently qualify for Tier I capital treatment, subject to certain limitations, under risk-based capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve. The junior subordinated debentures are callable by Patriot on any April 22 or October 22 after April 22, 2007, or earlier in the event the deduction of related interest for federal income taxes is prohibited, treatment as Tier I capital is no longer permitted or certain other contingencies arise.

Based on management's evaluation of the likelihood of realization, no valuation allowance has been provided against deferred tax assets, as management believes that it is more likely than not that Patriot will realize such deferred tax assets. For federal income tax purposes, Patriot has approximately $67,000 of acquired net operating loss carryforwards, resulting in a $23,000 deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2003. The net operating loss will begin to expire after the year ended December 31, 2010, if not utilized. Patriot has alternative minimum tax credits of $1,681,000 as of December 31, 2003. The credits have an indefinite life. The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996, enacted on August 20,1996, provides for the repeal of the tax bad debt deduction computed under the percentage of taxable income method. Upon repeal, the Bank is required to recapture into income, over a six-year period, the portion of its tax bad debt reserves that exceed its base year reserves (i.e., tax reserves for tax years beginning before 1988). The base year tax reserves, which may be subject to recapture if the Bank ceases to qualify as a bank for federal income tax purposes, are restricted with respect to certain distributions. The Bank's total tax bad debt reserves at December 31, 2003, are approximately $4,046,000, all of which represents the base year amount. 63 PATRIOT BANK CORP.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 13 -- SEGMENT REPORTING Patriot has four reportable segments: Banking, Mortgage Banking, Financial Advisors and Commercial Leasing. Banking operates a network of 17 community banking offices providing deposit and loan services to customers. Mortgage Banking originates and sells residential mortgages into the secondary market to generate fee income. Financial Advisors results for 2001 and 2002 reflect only brokerage services. In January 2003, Patriot completed its acquisition of two companies and another acquisition in September 2003, which is disclosed in Note 20 - Business Combinations. As a result of these business combinations, Financial Advisors' now offers wealth and investment management, pension benefits, and insurance services in addition to brokerage services. The impact of these three acquisitions was a $6,478,000 increase to total assets and a $2,066,000 increase to other income for 2003. Commercial Leasing originates small ticket leases. The following table highlights income statement and balance sheet information for each of the segments at or for the year ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 14 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS 401(K) PLAN Patriot maintains a 401(k) plan covering all of its employees who have attained age 21 and have completed at least one year of service. Under the plan. Patriot contributes 100% of an employee's contribution up to 6% of base salary. Patriot's contributions were $446,000, $301,000 and $273,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN In 1995, Patriot established an internally leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for eligible employees who have completed one year of service with Patriot or its subsidiaries. In December 1995, the ESOP borrowed $3,015,000 from Patriot to purchase 597,000 (as adjusted for subsequent stock dividends and stock split) newly issued shares of common stock. Patriot makes contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP's debt service less any dividends received by the ESOP. Any dividends received by the ESOP are used to pay debt service. The ESOP shares are pledged as collateral for its debt. As the debt is repaid, shares are released from collateral and allocated to qualifying employees based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year. Accordingly, the shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the consolidated Balance Sheets. As shares are committed to be released from collateral. Patriot reports compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares, and the allocated shares are included in outstanding shares for earnings per share computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings; dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest. ESOP compensation expense was $524,000, $353,000 and $238,000 in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The ESOP shares as of December 31, 2003, were as follows:

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Patriot maintains a Management Recognition Plan (MRP) as part of its 1996 Stock Compensation Plan. The MRP provides that up to 298,000 (as adjusted for subsequent stock dividends and stock split) shares of common stock may be granted, at the discretion of the Board, to key directors and officers at no cost to the individuals. Patriot granted 0, 5,500 and 0 shares during 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively in the form of restricted stock payable over five years from the date of grant. The recipients of the restricted stock are entitled to all voting and other shareholder rights, except that the shares, while restricted, may not be sold, pledged or otherwise disposed of and are required to be held in escrow. In the event the recipient terminates association with Patriot for reasons other than death, disability or change in control, the recipient forfeits all rights to the allocated shares under restriction which are canceled and revert to Patriot for re-issuance under the plan. Shares acquired by the MRP were newly issued shares and were recorded at the date of award based on the market value of shares. Shares acquired by the MRP, which are shown as a separate component of shareholders' equity, are being amortized to expense over the five-year vesting period. As shares are vested during this five-year period, Patriot records compensation expense equal to the shares being amortized. For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, $43,000, $40,000 and $173,000 were amortized to expense, respectively. At December 31, 2003, 14,000 shares were reserved for future grants under the plan. 66 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 14 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED) Patriot maintains a stock option plan. Patriot's employee stock option plan is accounted for under the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion No. 25. Accordingly, Patriot is required to make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if the fair value-based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," had been applied. The plan permits the grant of options to employees and directors for up to 1,100,000 (as adjusted for subsequent stock dividends and stock split) shares of common stock. The options have a term of 10 years and vest over a five-year period. The exercise price of each option equals the market price of Patriot Bank Corp.'s common stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the plan. A summary status of Patriot's option plans as of December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 and the charges during the years ending on those dates is presented below:

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model as follows:

67 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 14 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED) The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding at December 31, 2003:

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN Patriot maintains an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") which permits eligible employees to purchase Patriot common stock directly from Patriot through payroll deduction. Purchases of common stock are made at 90% of the market value of Patriot common stock on the last day of each quarter. Purchases are limited annually to $25,000 per participant and shares are issued from treasury stock. In 2003, 2002 and 2001, Patriot recorded expense of $13,000, $12,000 and $5,000, respectively, related to the ESPP. The ESPP was terminated, effective December 31, 2003, as required by the definitive merger agreement between Patriot and Susquehanna. NOTE 15 -- FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Patriot is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, including commitments to extend credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated Balance Sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of Patriot's involvement in particular classes of financial instruments. Patriot's exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. Patriot uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, Patriot requires collateral to support financial instruments with credit risk. 68 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 15 -- FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) The contractual or notional amounts of outstanding loan commitments as of December 31, 2003, are as follows:

Fees received in connection with these commitments are recognized as income over the life of the commitment or the life of the loan. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Patriot evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by Patriot upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral for commitments generally includes residential real estate, commercial real estate, or business equipment related to the lease. NOTE 16 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LEASE COMMITMENTS Patriot is committed to various operating leases related to branch facilities having initial or remaining terms in excess of one year. The minimum annual rental commitments under these leases outstanding at December 31, 2003 are as follows:

Total rental expense for all leases for the year ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 totaled $1,269,000, $1,120,000, and $1,098,000, respectively. OTHER Patriot is a defendant in various legal actions arising from normal business activities. Management believes that those actions are without merit or that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such actions will not have a material adverse effect on Patriot's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or shareholders' equity. 69 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 17 -- DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Patriot is required to disclose the estimated fair value of Patriot's assets and liabilities considered to be financial instruments. As with most financial institutions, the majority of Patriot's assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. However, many of such instruments lack an available trading market, as characterized by a willing buyer and seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Therefore, Patriot has used significant estimates and present value calculations to prepare this disclosure. Changes in the assumptions or methodologies used to estimate fair value may affect the estimated amounts. Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time based upon, where available, relevant market prices and information about the financial instrument. Such estimates do not include any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time Patriot's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. For a substantial portion of Patriot's financial instruments, no quoted market exists. Therefore, estimates of fair value are necessarily based on a number of significant assumptions (many of which involve events outside the control of management). Such assumptions include assessments of current economic conditions, perceived risks associated with these financial instruments and their counterparties, future expected loss experience, and other factors. Given the uncertainties surrounding these assumptions, the reported fair values represent estimates only, and therefore cannot be compared to the historical accounting model. Use of different assumptions or methodologies are likely to result in significantly different fair value estimates. The estimated fair values presented neither include nor give effect to the values associated with Patriot's banking, or other business, existing customer relationships, extensive branch banking network, property, equipment, goodwill, or certain tax implications related to the realization of unrealized gains or losses. Excluding securities available for sale and certain residential mortgages, it is Patriot's general practice and intent to hold the preponderance of its financial instruments to maturity and not to engage in trading or sales activities. The fair value of demand deposits, savings, and money market deposit accounts is equal to the carrying amount because these deposits have no stated maturity. Obviously, this approach to estimating fair value excludes the significant benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by such deposit liabilities, as compared to alternative sources of funding. As a consequence, the fair value of individual assets and liabilities may not be reflective of the fair value of a banking organization that is a going concern. Fair values have been estimated using data which management considered the best available. Fair value of financial instruments actively traded in a secondary market has been estimated using quoted market prices. The fair value of loans receivable has been estimated using present value cash flow, discounted at an interest rate that gives effect to estimated prepayment risk and credit loss factors. The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximate its fair market value. Fair value of financial instrument liabilities with no stated maturities has been estimated to equal the carrying amount. Fair value of financial instrument liabilities with stated maturities has been estimated using present value cash flow, discounted at a rate approximating current market rates for similar assets and liabilities. The fair value of letters of credit and outstanding commitments approximate the fees charged for providing such services. The resulting estimated fair values and carrying amounts at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively were as follows: 70 PATRIOT BANK CORP.

71 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 18 -- REGULATORY MATTERS Patriot and Patriot Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possible additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on Patriot's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Patriot and Patriot Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Patriot and Patriot Bank's capital amounts are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Patriot Bank Corp. and Patriot Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets, and of core capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2003, that Patriot and Patriot Bank each meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. As of December 31, 2003, the most recent notification from the Department of Banking of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania categorized Patriot Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, Patriot and Patriot Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, core risk-based and core leverage ratios as set forth in the table. At December 31, 2003, Patriot and Patriot Bank met these ratio requirements. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category. The following schedule summarizes the actual capital balances and ratios of Patriot and Patriot Bank as of December 31, 2002 and 2003:

Patriot and Patriot Bank are subject to regulations of certain regulatory agencies and, accordingly, are periodically examined by such regulatory authorities. As a consequence of the regulation of banking activities, Patriot and Patriot Bank's operations are susceptible to changes in legislation and regulations. 72 PATRIOT BANK CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2003 NOTE 18 -- REGULATORY MATTERS (CONTINUED)

At the time of Patriot's initial public offering, a "liquidation account" was established for Patriot Bank at its conversion to the stock form of ownership. In the unlikely event of a complete liquidation of Patriot Bank, holders of savings accounts with qualifying deposits, who continue to maintain their savings accounts, would be entitled to a distribution from the "liquidation account" in an amount equal to the then current adjusted savings account balance before any liquidation distribution could be made with respect to capital stock. The balance in the "liquidation account" was $4,524,000 at December 31, 2003. This amount may not be utilized for the payment of cash dividends to the holding company. LIMITATION ON CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS. Dividend payments by the Bank to Patriot are subject to the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965 and the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA"). Under the Pennsylvania Banking Code, no dividends may be paid except from "accumulated net earnings" (generally, undivided profits). Under the FRA Act, dividends may be paid only from the current year's earnings and the retained net income of the prior two calendar years. Under current banking laws, the Bank would be limited to approximately $30.2 million of dividends in 2003 plus an additional amount equal to the Bank's net profit, up to the date of any such dividend declaration. 73 PATRIOT BANK CORP.

NOTE 21 -- DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Patriot uses interest rate swaps to hedge the impact of changing interest rates on the market values of certain fixed rate FHLB borrowings. Under the terms of the swaps, Patriot receives fixed rate payments and pays variable rate payments based on three month LIBOR. The fixed interest swap payments received by Patriot equal the amounts payable to to the FHLB, effectively converting the FHLB borrowings to a variable rate. Changes in the fair value of the swaps are highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value of the FHLB borrowings, since the structure of the critical terms of the swaps match the FHLB borrowings. 76 The following table summarizes Patriot's derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2003:

In the past, Patriot has not used derivative instruments, however, on June 20, 2003, Patriot entered into three pay variable receive fixed interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of designated fixed rate FHLB advances. The notional amount of these contracts totals $72 million and mature on May 29, 2008. The company has agreed to pay 3 month LIBOR plus a spread, with quarterly reset, and to receive a fixed rate equal to the rate paid on the individual FHLB advances. Since the terms of interest rate swaps mirror those of the hedged items, FHLB advances, Patriot has adopted the short cut method, as prescribed in SFAS No. 133, to account for these transactions. Therefore, no hedge ineffectiveness was recognized in earnings related to these fair value hedges. ITEM 9. CHANGE IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE N/A ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Patriot's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that Patriot's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures as of December 31, 2003, are effective. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS. During the third quarter of 2003, Patriot's internal control process uncovered what is believed to be a defalcation perpetrated by a mid-level supervisory employee within Patriot's credit card operation. The defalcation includes an alleged theft and the alleged falsification and destruction of accounting records as well as the concealment of credit card delinquencies and bankruptcies. The total amount of the alleged theft is approximately $982,000. The company maintains an insurance policy which management believes covers the majority of the alleged theft, and as a result, Patriot has recorded an after-tax charge of $367,000 related to the deductible on that insurance policy and losses and operating expenses associated with the falsification and destruction of accounting records. The alleged defalcation included the concealment of approximately $460,000 of unsecured customer bankruptcies, which, since they were not material to any prior period, were charged off during the third quarter of 2003 through Patriot's loan loss reserve. An additional $299,000 of credit card delinquencies, which were subject to normal collection procedures were charged off during the fourth quarter of 2003. At December 31, 2003, there was $80,000 of delinquent credit card receivables remaining from the defalcation. Additional charge-offs may result from these delinquent accounts. Subsequent to the discovery of the alleged defalcation, Management has implemented staffing changes designed to improve the training of the individuals involved in the daily operations. Procedural changes were also implemented to enhance the segregation of duties, which strengthen the review, authorization and reconciliation process so that the probability of employee defalcations occurring in the future is reduced. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that the corrective actions taken should be adequate to remedy the aforementioned control inadequacies. Except as discussed above, there have been no significant changes in Patriot's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation of those controls. 77 PART III ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT The following table sets forth, as of March 8, 2004, the names of the Directors and Named Executive Officers (as defined below) as well as their ages, a brief description of their recent business experience, including present occupations and employment, certain directorships held by each, the year in which each director became a director of Patriot and the year in which their terms as director of Patriot expire.

DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION Outside director compensation is based on accepted practices of the banking industry, Patriot's current size and scope of operation, level of personal risk, liability associated with directorship responsibilities and the need to pay a competitive remuneration to retain and attract qualified individuals. Outside directors are paid an annual retainer of $18,000, in addition to $500 to attend each Board meeting and $100 to attend each committee meeting. The committee chairperson retainer is $3,000. Mr. Elliott receives an additional $25,000 annually as Chairman of the Board. On June 7, 1996, shareholders approved the 1996 Stock-Based Incentive Plan ("1996 Incentive Plan"), under which all directors who are not also employees of Patriot are eligible to receive stock awards and options to purchase common stock. Under the 1996 Incentive Plan, Messrs. Elliott and Thren were each granted non-statutory options to purchase 37,313 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.53 per share. On January 1, 1999, Mr. Bentley was awarded a non-statutory option to purchase 11,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.68 per share, and on November 27, 2000, he was awarded a non-statutory option to purchase 20,729 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.63 per share. On December 28, 2000, Mr. Kunkel was granted a non-statutory option to purchase 11,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.94 per share. On April 23, 2002, shareholders approved the 2002 Stock Option Plan, which provides that all non-employee directors are eligible to receive stock options to purchase common stock. Under the 2002 Stock Option Plan, Messrs. Bentley, Elliott, Kunkel and Thren were each granted non-statutory options to purchase 11,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $12.82 per share. The exercise price of all options was equal to the fair market value of common stock on the date of the grant. All options are exercisable in five equal annual installments, commencing one year from the date of grant, except that upon a change in control of Patriot, all options immediately vest. All shares have been adjusted for subsequent stock splits and stock dividends. 80 ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION Summary Compensation Table.

In the event Patriot or the Bank chooses to terminate Mr. Elko's employment for reasons other than for cause, or in the event of Mr. Elko's resignation from Patriot and the Bank upon: (i) failure to re-elect Mr. Elko to his current offices; (ii) a material change in Mr. Elko's functions, duties or responsibilities; (iii) a relocation of Mr. Elko's principal place of employment by more than 20 miles; (iv) a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites provided to Mr. Elko; (v) liquidation or dissolution of Patriot or the Bank; (vi) a breach of the agreement by Patriot or the Bank; (vii) the refusal of Patriot or the Bank to extend the agreement as described above; or (viii) the voluntary or involuntary termination following a change in control of Patriot or the Bank, Mr. Elko or, in the event of death, his beneficiary, would be entitled to receive an amount equal to the greater of: (a) the remaining payments due to Mr. Elko, or (b) three times Mr. Elko's average annual compensation as defined in the employment agreements. Patriot and the Bank also would continue and pay for Mr. Elko's life, health and disability coverage for the remaining term of the agreement. Any payments under the employment agreements in the event of a change in control may constitute some portion of an excess parachute payment under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), resulting in the imposition of an excise tax on the recipient and denial of the deduction for such excess amounts to Patriot and the Bank. Under the employment agreements Patriot and the Bank have agreed to pay to Mr. Elko such additional amount, if any, as is necessary, after the deduction of any applicable taxes, to pay any such excise tax imposed on Mr. Elko. Payments to Mr. Elko under the Bank's agreement will be guaranteed by Patriot in the event that payments or benefits are not paid by the Bank. Payments to Mr. Elko under Patriot's agreement would be made by Patriot. All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Mr. Elko pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to the employment agreements shall be paid by Patriot or the Bank, respectively, if Mr. Elko is successful pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. The employment agreements also provide that Patriot and the Bank shall indemnify Mr. Elko to the fullest extent allowable under federal and Pennsylvania law. In February 2001, the Bank entered into employment agreements with Mr. Pyle, Ms. Naugle and Mr. Blume (individually, the "Executive") each having a term of three years (individually, an "Employment Agreement"). The Employment Agreement provides that, commencing on the first anniversary date and continuing on each anniversary date thereafter, the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Bank may extend the Employment Agreement for an additional year so that the remaining term shall be three years, unless written notice of nonrenewal is given by the Board of Directors after conducting a performance evaluation of the Executive. The current base salaries for Mr. Pyle, Ms. Naugle and Mr. Blume are $192,400, $192,400 and $156,000, respectively. In addition to the base salary, the Employment Agreement provides for, among other things, participation in stock benefit plans and other fringe benefits applicable to executive personnel. The Employment Agreements of Mr. Pyle, Ms. Naugle and Mr. Blume provide for termination by the Bank for cause, as defined in the Employment Agreement, at any time. In the event the Bank chooses to terminate the Executive's full-time employment for reasons other than for cause, or in the event of the Executive's resignation from the Bank upon: (i) failure to re-elect, appoint or reappoint the Executive to office; (ii) material change in the Executive's functions, duties or responsibilities which change would cause the Executive's position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance or scope, unless consented to by the Executive; (iii) a relocation of the Executive's principal place of employment by more than 20 miles; (iv) a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites provided to the Executive; (v) liquidation or dissolution of Patriot or the Bank; (vi) a breach of the Employment Agreement by the Bank; (vii) the refusal of the Bank to extend the term of the Employment Agreement; or (viii) the voluntary or 83 involuntary termination of the Executive's employment following a change in control of Patriot or the Bank, the Executive, or the Executive's beneficiary in the event of the Executive's death, would be entitled to receive an amount equal to the greater of: (a) the remaining payments due to the Executive, or (b) three times the Executive's average annual compensation us defined in the Employment Agreement. The Bank also would continue and pay for the Executive's life, health and disability coverage for three years following the date of termination. Any amounts payable under the Employment Agreement resulting from termination of employment following a change in control would be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid such payments constituting an excess parachute payment under the Code. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION This report of the Personnel Compensation/Benefits Committee (the "Committee") and the stock performance graph shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or the Exchange Act, except to the extent that Patriot specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts. Under rules established by the SEC, Patriot is required to provide certain information regarding the compensation and benefits provided to Patriot's CEO and other executive officers of Patriot. The disclosure requirements for the CEO and other executive officers include the use of tables and a report explaining the rationale and considerations that led to fundamental compensation decisions affecting those individuals. In fulfillment of this requirement, the Committee, at the direction of the Board of Directors, has prepared the following report for inclusion in this proxy statement. COMPENSATION POLICIES The Committee has established a policy for executive compensation, taking into account both subjective performance criteria and selected objective performance measures. The purpose of the policy is to: (i) provide compensation programs and opportunities which are competitive with other similar financial services companies; (ii) support Patriot's goal setting and strategic planning process; (iii) motivate the executive management of Patriot to achieve profit and other key goals of the institution, including but not limited to Patriot's commitment to the communities it serves and to its employees, customers and investors; (iv) motivate the executive management to operate Patriot in a safe and sound manner and in compliance with all pertinent governmental and regulatory requirements; and (v) minimize potential overhead by designating a significant portion of the annual compensation of executives as variable and performance oriented rather than fixed. In determining an Executive Compensation Plan for 2003, the Committee of Patriot established certain objectives for executive management which included the creation and execution of a strategic business plan, attaining certain financial goals based on net income, earnings per share, return on equity, return on assets, strengthening senior management, reaching certain volume goals for loans and core deposits, achieving certain asset quality targets, achieving certain customer satisfaction criteria, initiating several business objectives and maintaining positive relationships with external constituents. Additionally, Patriot utilized a number of subjective elements as part of the decision making process regarding executive compensation. The individual skills and talents of the executive managers of Patriot, including but not limited to, experience, leadership ability, planning and organizational skills, administrative talent, vision for the future and work ethic were given consideration in establishing executive compensation. The Committee set Mr. Elko's 2004 base salary at $312,000 and established specific Company financial performance objectives and individual performance objectives under the 2004 Annual Bonus Plan for Mr. Elko. Mr. Elko's total base compensation target for 2004 will be at 100% of the total compensation peer marketplace for 2003 for the CEO position within the newly designed peer group. This peer group is not necessarily comprised of the same institutions used in the peer group for the stock performance graph. THE PERSONNEL COMPENSATION/BENEFITS COMMITTEE Larry V.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT The following table sets forth information regarding management and those persons believed by management to be beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Common Stock on December 31, 2003, or as disclosed in reports regarding ownership filed by persons with Patriot and with the SEC, in accordance with Sections 13(d) and 13(g) of the Exchange Act. Other than those persons listed below, Patriot is not aware of any person, as such term is defined in the Exchange Act, that owns more than 5% of the Common Stock as of December 31, 2003.

* Represents less than one percent of the outstanding Common Stock. (1) Shares of Common Stock were acquired by the ESOP in the 1995 conversion of Patriot Savings Bank (a predecessor of the Bank) from mutual to stock form. The Personnel Compensation/Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors administers the ESOP. Investors Trust Company is the corporate trustee for the ESOP ("ESOP Trustee"). The ESOP Trustee, subject to its fiduciary duty, must vote all allocated shares held in the ESOP in accordance with the instructions of the participants. At December 31, 2003, 286,000 shares had been allocated under the ESOP and 311,000 shares remain unallocated. Unallocated shares will be voted by the ESOP Trustee in a manner calculated to most accurately reflect the instructions received from participants regarding the allocated stock so long as such vote is in accordance with the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). 86 (2) Each person effectively exercises sole (or shares with his/her spouse or other immediate family member) voting or dispositive power as to shares reported herein (except as noted). (3) Includes 2,216, 4,400 and 387 shares awarded to Messrs. Bentley, Blume and Pyle, respectively, under the 1996 Incentive Plan. Stock awards granted under the 1996 Incentive Plan vest in five equal annual installments. However, recipients have the right to direct the voting of all awarded shares. (4) Includes 25,637, 19,253, 11,200, 4,400 and 39,513 shares subject to options granted to directors Bentley, Elko, Elliott, Kunkel and Thren, respectively, that are exercisable within 60 days. Includes 3,400, 1,100 and 1,100 shares subject to options granted to officers Blume, Naugle and Pyle, respectively, that are exercisable within 60 days. ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Patriot's current policy provides that all loans made by Patriot to its directors and officers are made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features. All loans made to directors and officers comply with this policy. ITEM 14. INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES The following table sets forth the aggregate fees payable by Patriot for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 to Patriot's independent accounting firm KPMG LLP.

Audit fees include fees for services that are customary under auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America or that are customary for the purposes of rendering an opinion or review report on the registrant's financial statements. This also includes services that generally only an independent accountant reasonably can provide, such as comfort letters, statutory audit and attest services (including reports on an issuer's internal controls and procedures for financial reporting required under FDICIA and Section 404), consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Audit-related fees are assurance and related services that traditionally are performed by the independent accountant. More specifically, these services included, among others: due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions and accounting consultations in connection with acquisitions. Tax fees consist of all tax services that do not relate to "audit assist work." This includes tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. All other fees are any other fees for services not covered in previous categories. The Audit Committee considered whether the provision of nonaudit services by Patriot's principal auditors during 2003 was compatible with maintaining auditor independence. The Audit Committee began considering whether the non-audit services proposed to be performed by KPMG LLP in advance of such performance for compatibility with their independence beginning in September 2002. 87 AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND PERMISSIBLE NON-AUDIT SERVICES BY INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-prohibited, non-audit services provided by the independent auditors. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of services provided by the independent auditors. Under the policy, pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is subject to a specific budget. In addition, the Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. For each proposed service, the independent auditor is required to provide detailed back-up documentation at the time of approval or such other detailed information as the Audit Committee deems appropriate. The Audit and Finance Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. Such a member must report any decisions to the Audit Committee at the next scheduled meeting. There were no waivers by the Audit Committee of the pre-approval requirement for permissible non-audit services in 2003. AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT AND RELATED MATTERS Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC designed to improve disclosures related to the functioning of corporate audit committees and to enhance the reliability and credibility of financial statements of public companies, the Audit Committee of Patriot's Board of Directors submits the following report: AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of Patriot's accounting functions and internal controls. The Audit Committee is composed of directors Bentley, Elliott, Kunkel and Thren, each of whom is independent. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board of Directors. Revisions to the charter were adopted in December 2002 to strengthen the role of the Committee and assure compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Management is responsible for Patriot's internal controls and financial reporting process. The independent accountants are responsible for performing an independent audit of Patriot's consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and to issue a report thereon. The Audit Committee's responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes. In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit Committee met with management and the independent accountants to review and discuss the December 31, 2003, financial statements. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent accountants the matters required by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees). The Audit Committee also received written disclosures from the independent accountants required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), and the Audit Committee discussed with the independent accountants that firm's independence. Based upon the Audit Committee's discussions with management and the independent accountants, and the Audit Committee's review of the representations of management and the independent accountants, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in Patriot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, to be filed with the SEC.
