PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS GENERAL The registrant is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), with its principal assets being the stock of its subsidiaries. Through its banking subsidiaries (the "Banks") and its various non-banking subsidiaries, the registrant provides banking and banking-related services, primarily throughout the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic states and Texas. The principal executive offices of the registrant are located at NationsBank Corporate Center in Charlotte, North Carolina 28255. ACQUISITIONS On February 18, 1994, the registrant, through NationsBank of Florida, N.A. and NationsBank of Georgia, N.A., entered into an agreement with California Savings Bank, a Federal Savings Bank, to acquire for cash forty-three branches, including deposits, in Florida and one branch, including deposits, in Georgia at a purchase price of approximately $160 million. The registrant expects to complete the acquisition during the third quarter of 1994. On February 28, 1994, the registrant acquired by merger Corpus Christi National Bank ("CCNB") of Corpus Christi, Texas, which had assets at the closing date of $687 million. The registrant acquired all the outstanding capital stock of CCNB by exchanging 2.5 shares of its Common Stock for each share of CCNB common stock outstanding, resulting in a total consideration of approximately $62 million. As a result, the registrant issued 2.6 million shares of Common Stock. Effective October 1, 1993, MNC Financial Inc. ("MNC"), a bank holding company headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, with total assets of $16.5 billion, was merged into the registrant pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Consolidation, dated July 16, 1992, as amended, between the registrant and MNC. Based on 90.8 million shares of MNC common stock outstanding on the closing date, the purchase price for the common stock was approximately $1.39 billion. The registrant paid 50.1% of the purchase price with shares of its common stock (approximately 13.6 million shares), with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares, and 49.9% in cash (approximately $687 million). On July 28, 1993, the registrant entered into an agreement with US WEST, Inc. and US WEST Financial Services, Inc., a corporate finance subsidiary of US WEST, Inc. ("USWFS"), to acquire from USWFS for cash, approximately $2.0 billion in net receivables as well as its ongoing business. Effective December 1, 1993, the registrant completed the asset acquisition and established Nations Financial Capital Corporation. On July 2, 1993, the registrant, through NationsBank of North Carolina, N.A. completed its acquisition of substantially all the assets and certain of the liabilities of Chicago Research & Trading Group Ltd. ("CRT") and certain of its subsidiaries. Total assets at the date of purchase were approximately $12 billion and consisted primarily of trading account assets and securities purchased under agreements to resell. The options market-making and trading portion of CRT became known as NationsBanc-CRT, and the primary government securities dealer portion became a part of NationsBanc Capital Markets, Inc. On June 7, 1993, the registrant's joint venture with Dean Witter, Discover & Co. to market and sell various investment products and services in selected banking centers commenced operations as NationsSecurities, a Dean Witter/NationsBank Company. In the past, the registrant has successfully completed numerous bank and bank holding company acquisitions. As part of its operations, the registrant regularly evaluates the potential acquisition of, and holds discussions with, various financial institutions and other businesses of a type eligible for bank holding company investment. In addition, the registrant regularly analyzes the values of, and submits bids for, the acquisition of customer-based funds and other liabilities and assets of failed financial institutions. As a general rule, the registrant publicly announces such material acquisitions when a definitive agreement has been reached. BANKING OPERATIONS The registrant, through its various subsidiaries, provides a diversified range of financial services to its customers. These services include activities related to the banking business as provided through the following 1 customer groups. The General Bank Group's services include comprehensive service in the commercial and retail banking fields; the origination and servicing of home mortgage loans; the issuance and servicing of credit cards; certain insurance services and private banking services. The Trust Group's services include trust and investment management services and mutual fund products. The Institutional Bank Group's services include comprehensive service in the corporate and investment banking fields; trading in financial futures through contractual arrangements with members of the various commodities exchanges, options market making and trading; and arranging and structuring mergers, acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, private debt placements, international financings and venture capital. The Institutional Bank Group also provides international operations through branches, merchant banks or representative offices located in London, Frankfurt, Singapore, Mexico City, Grand Cayman and Nassau, including the traditional services of paying and receiving, international collections, bankers' acceptances, letters of credit and foreign exchange services, as well as specialized international services, such as tax-based leasing, export financing of certain capital goods and raw materials and capital market services, to its corporate customers. The Secured Lending Group's services include real estate lending; commercial finance and factoring; and leasing and financing a wide variety of commercial equipment.

(1) This subsidiary is engaged primarily in the business of issuing and servicing credit cards. In addition to the banking offices located in the above states, the various Banks have loan production offices located in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Denver and Birmingham. The Banks also provide fully automated, 24-hour cash dispensing and depositing services throughout the states in which they are located. The Banks have automated teller machines (ATMs) which are linked to the PLUS, CIRRUS, VISA, MASTERCARD, and Armed Forces Financial Network (AFFN) ATM networks. ATMs in the Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic states are linked to HONOR (a regional network). ATMs in Texas are linked to the PULSE network (a regional network throughout the Southwest). ATMs in the Mid-Atlantic states also are linked to MOST (a regional network operating only in the Mid-Atlantic states). NON-BANKING OPERATIONS The registrant conducts its non-banking operations through several subsidiaries. NationsCredit Corporation and several other subsidiaries engage in consumer credit activities. Nations Financial Capital Corporation engages in corporate finance activities. NationsBanc Mortgage Corporation originates and services loans for the Banks as well as for other investors. NationsBanc Commercial Corporation and an additional subsidiary provide services related to the factoring of accounts receivable. NationsBanc Leasing Corporation and several additional subsidiaries engage in equipment and leveraged leasing activities. NationsSecurities, a Dean Witter/NationsBank Company, provides full service retail brokerage services. NationsBanc Discount Brokerage, Inc. conducts discount brokerage activities. 2 In addition, NationsBanc Capital Markets, Inc. ("NCMI"), NationsBank's institutional securities subsidiary, underwrites and deals in bank-eligible securities (generally U.S. government and government agency securities, certain municipal securities, primarily municipal general obligation securities, and certain certificates of deposit, bankers acceptances and money market instruments) and, to a limited extent, certain bank-ineligible securities, including corporate debt, as authorized by the Federal Reserve Board under Section 20 of the Glass-Steagall Act. Through NCMI's securities underwriting authority, NationsBank provides corporate and institutional customers a broad range of debt-related financial services. GOVERNMENT SUPERVISION AND REGULATION GENERAL As a registered bank holding company, the registrant is subject to the supervision of, and to regular inspection by, the Federal Reserve Board. The registrant's banking subsidiaries are organized as national banking associations, which are subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "Comptroller"). The various banking subsidiaries also are subject to regulation by the FDIC and other federal bank regulatory bodies. In addition to banking laws, regulations and regulatory agencies, the registrant and its subsidiaries and affiliates are subject to various other laws and regulations and supervison and examination by other regulatory agencies, all of which directly or indirectly affect the registrant's operations, manangement and ability to make distributions. The following discussion summarizes certain aspects of those laws and regulations that affect the registrant. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the banking industry are frequently introduced in Congress, in the state legislatures and before the various bank regulatory agencies. For example, Federal interstate bank acquisitions and branching legislation currently is being considered by Congress which, if enacted, would permit nationwide interstate branching by the registrant. In addition, other states including Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia recently revised their banking statutes to facilitate interstate banking in other states that have similar statutes regarding interstate banking. Other states in which the registrant has banking operations are considering similar legislation. However, the likelihood and timing of any changes and the impact such changes might have on the registrant and its subsidiaries are difficult to determine. Under the Act, the registrant's activities, and those of companies which it controls or in which it holds more than 5% of the voting stock, are limited to banking or managing or controlling banks or furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries, or any other activity which the Federal Reserve Board determines to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In making such determinations, the Federal Reserve Board is required to consider whether the performance of such activities by a bank holding company or its subsidiaries can reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public such as greater convenience, increased competition or gains in efficiency that outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interest or unsound banking practices. Bank holding companies, such as the registrant, are required to obtain prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board to engage in any new activity or to acquire more than 5% of any class of voting stock of any company. The Act also requires bank holding companies to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before acquiring more than 5% of any class of voting shares of any bank which is not already majority-owned. No application to acquire shares of a bank located outside of North Carolina, the state in which the operations of the applicant's banking subsidiaries were principally conducted on the date it became subject to the Act, may be approved by the Federal Reserve Board unless such acquisition is specifically authorized by the laws of the state in which the bank whose shares are to be acquired is located. DISTRIBUTIONS The registrant's funds for cash distributions to its shareholders are derived from a variety of sources, including cash and temporary investments. The primary source of such funds, however, is dividends received from its banking subsidiaries. Without prior regulatory approval the Banks can initiate dividend payments in 1993 of up to $1.4 billion plus an additional amount equal to their net profits for 1994, as defined by statute, up to the date of any such dividend declaration. The amount of dividends that each subsidiary national bank 3 may declare in a calendar year without approval of the Comptroller is the bank's net profits for that year combined with its net retained profits, as defined, for the preceding two years. In addition to the foregoing, the ability of the registrant and the Banks to pay dividends may be affected by the various minimum capital requirements and the capital and non-capital standards to be established under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") as described below. Furthermore, the Comptroller may prohibit the payment of a dividend by a national bank if it determines that such payment would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. The right of the registrant, its shareholders and its creditors to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of its subsidiaries is further subject to the prior claims of creditors of the respective subsidiaries. DEPOSIT INSURANCE The deposits of each of the Banks are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC. Accordingly, the Banks are subject to deposit insurance assessments to maintain the Bank Insurance Fund (the "BIF") of the FDIC. As mandated by FDICIA, the FDIC has adopted regulations effective January 1, 1993, for the transition from a flat-rate insurance assessment system to a risk-based system by January 1, 1994. Pursuant to these regulations, a financial institution's deposit insurance assessment will be within a range of 0.23 percent to 0.31 percent of its qualifying deposits, depending on the institution's risk classification. The assessment for the registrant's banks is estimated to average 25.2 cents per $100 of eligible deposits in 1994. SOURCE OF STRENGTH According to Federal Reserve Board policy, bank holding companies are expected to act as a source of financial strength to each subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support each such subsidiary. This support may be required at times when a bank holding company may not be able to provide such support. In the event of a loss suffered or anticipated by the FDIC -- either as a result of default of a banking subsidiary of the registrant or related to FDIC assistance provided to a subsidiary in danger of default -- the other banking subsidiaries of the registrant may be assessed for the FDIC's loss, subject to certain exceptions. CAPITAL AND OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES The narrative comments under the caption "Capital" (page 48) set forth in the accompanying 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders of the registrant are hereby incorporated by reference. The Federal Reserve Board risk-based guidelines define a two-tier capital framework. Tier 1 capital consists of common and qualifying preferred shareholders' equity, less certain intangibles and other adjustments. Tier 2 capital consists of subordinated and other qualifying debt, and the allowance for credit losses up to 1.25 percent of risk-weighted assets. The sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital less investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries represents qualifying total capital, at least 50 percent of which must consist of Tier 1 capital. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated by dividing Tier 1 and total capital by risk-weighted assets. Assets and off-balance sheet exposures are assigned to one of four categories of risk-weights, based primarily on relative credit risk. The minimum Tier 1 capital ratio is 4 percent and the minimum total capital ratio is 8 percent. The registrant's Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios under these guidelines at December 31, 1993 were 7.41 percent and 11.73 percent, respectively. The leverage ratio is determined by dividing Tier 1 capital by adjusted total assets. Although the stated minimum ratio is 3 percent, most banking organizations are required to maintain ratios of at least 100 to 200 basis points above 3 percent. The registrant's leverage ratio at December 31, 1993 was 6.00 percent. FDICIA identifies the five capital categories for insured depository institutions (well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized) and requires the respective Federal regulatory agencies to implement systems for "prompt corrective action" for insured depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements within such categories. FDICIA imposes progressively more restrictive constraints on operations, management and capital distributions, depending on the category in which an institution is classified. Failure to meet the capital guidelines could also subject a banking institution to capital raising requirements. An "undercapitalized" bank must develop a capital restoration plan and its parent holding company must guarantee that bank's compliance with the plan. The liability of the parent holding company under any such guarantee is limited to the lesser of 5 percent of the bank's assets at the time it became "undercapitalized" or the amount needed to comply with the 4 plan. Furthermore, in the event of the bankruptcy of the parent holding company, such guarantee would take priority over the parent's general unsecured creditors. In addition, FDICIA required the various regulatory agencies to prescribe certain non-capital standards for safety and soundness relating generally to operations and management, asset quality and executive compensation and permits regulatory action against a financial institution that does not meet such standards. The various regulatory agencies have adopted substantially similar regulations that define the five capital categories identified by FDICIA, using the total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios as the relevant capital measures. Such regulations establish various degrees of corrective action to be taken when an institution is considered undercapitalized. Under the regulations, a "well capitalized" institution must have a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6 percent, a total capital ratio of at least 10 percent and a leverage ratio of at least 5 percent and not be subject to a capital directive order. An "adequately capitalized" institution must have a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 4 percent, a total capital ratio of at least 8 percent and a leverage ratio of at least 4 percent, or 3 percent in some cases. Under these guidelines, each of the Banks is adequately or well capitalized.

Generally, the lines of activity and markets served involve competition with other banks and non-bank financial institutions, as well as other entities which offer financial services, located both within and without the United States. The methods of competition center around various factors, such as customer services, interest rates on loans and deposits, lending limits and location of offices. The commercial banking business in the various local markets served by the various non-banking subsidiaries and the various Banks is highly competitive, and the non-banking subsidiaries and the Banks compete with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations and other businesses which provide similar services. The non-banking subsidiaries and the Banks actively compete in commercial lending activities with local, regional and international banks and non-bank financial organizations, some of which are larger than certain of the non-banking subsidiaries and the Banks. In its consumer lending operations, the non-banking subsidiaries and the Banks' competitors include other banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, regulated small loan companies and other non-bank organizations offering financial services. In the trust business, the Banks compete with other banks, investment counselors and insurance companies in national markets for institutional funds and corporate pension and profit sharing accounts. The Banks also compete with other banks, insurance agents, financial counselors and other fiduciaries for personal trust business. The non-banking subsidiaries and the Banks also actively compete for funds. A primary source of funds for the Banks is deposits, and competition for deposits includes other deposit taking organizations, such as commercial banks, savings and loan associations and credit unions, and so-called "money market" mutual funds. The non-banking subsidiaries and the Banks also actively compete for funds in the open market. The registrant's ability to expand into additional states remains subject to various federal and state laws. See "Government Supervision and Regulation -- General" for a more detailed discussion of interstate branching legislation and certain state legislation.
