The Corporation was organized in Delaware in 1971 and on December 1 of that year became the owner of all of the outstanding capital stock, except directors' qualifying shares, of The Northern Trust Company (Bank), an Illinois banking corporation headquartered in the Chicago financial district. The Corporation also owns two banks in Florida, one bank in each of Arizona, California and Texas, Connecticut and New York trust companies and various other nonbank subsidiaries, including a securities brokerage firm, a retirement services company and a futures commission merchant. The Corporation expects that although the operations of other subsidiaries will be of increasing significance, the Bank will in the foreseeable future continue to be the major source of the Corporation's assets, revenues and net income. Except where the context otherwise requires, the term "Northern Trust" refers to Northern Trust Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. At December 31, 1995, Northern Trust had consolidated total assets of approximately $19.9 billion and stockholders' equity of $1.5 billion. At June 30, 1995 Northern Trust was the third largest bank holding company headquartered in Illinois and the 38th largest in the United States, based on consolidated total assets of approximately $19.3 billion on that date. THE NORTHERN TRUST COMPANY The Bank was founded by Byron L. Smith in 1889 to provide banking and trust services to the public. Currently in its one hundred and seventh year, the Bank's growth has come primarily from internal sources rather than through merger or acquisition. At December 31, 1995, the Bank had consolidated assets of approximately $15.2 billion. At June 30, 1995, the Bank was the third largest bank in Illinois and the 41st largest in the United States, based on consolidated total assets of approximately $15.1 billion on that date. The Bank currently has eight active wholly owned subsidiaries: The Northern Trust International Banking Corporation, NorLease, Inc., MFC Company, Inc., Nortrust Nominees Ltd., The Northern Trust Company U.K. Pension Plan Limited, The Northern Trust Company, Canada, Northern Global Financial Services Limited and Northern Trust Trade Services, Limited. The Northern Trust International Banking Corporation, located in New York, was organized under the Edge Act for the purpose of conducting international business. NorLease, Inc. was established by the Bank to enable it to broaden its leasing and leasing-related lending activities. MFC Company, Inc. holds properties that are received from the Bank in connection with certain problem loans. Nortrust Nominees Ltd., located in London, is a U.K. trust corporation organized to hold U.K. real estate for fiduciary accounts. The Northern Trust Company U.K. Pension Plan Limited, located in London, was established in connection with the pension plan for the Bank's London Branch. The Northern Trust Company, Canada, located in Toronto, was established to offer institutional trust products and services to Canadian entities. Northern Global Financial Services Ltd., located in Hong Kong, provides securities lending and relationship services for large asset custody clients in Asia and the Pacific Rim. Northern Trust Trade Services, Limited provides trade finance services. OTHER NORTHERN TRUST CORPORATION SUBSIDIARIES On February 29, 1996, three Illinois banking subsidiaries of the Corporation merged into the Bank: Northern Trust Bank/O'Hare N.A., Northern Trust Bank/DuPage, and Northern Trust Bank/Lake Forest N.A. As a result, the Bank now operates fourteen offices in the Chicago metropolitan area. The Corporation's Florida banking subsidiaries, Northern Trust Bank of Florida N.A., headquartered in Miami, and the Northern Trust Bank of Vero Beach, at December 31, 1995, had twenty-two offices located throughout Florida, with total assets of approximately $1.8 billion. The Corporation's Arizona banking subsidiary, Northern Trust Bank of Arizona N.A., is headquartered in Phoenix and at December 31, 1995 had total assets of approximately $315 million and served clients from five office locations. The Corporation has a Texas banking subsidiary, Northern Trust Bank of Texas N.A., headquartered in Dallas. It had six office locations and total assets of approximately $456 million at December 31, 1995. The Corporation's California banking subsidiary, Northern Trust Bank of California N.A., is headquartered in Santa Barbara. At December 31, 1995, it had six office locations and total assets of approximately $288 million. The Corporation has several nonbank subsidiaries. Among them are Northern Trust Securities, Inc. which provides full brokerage services to clients of the Bank and the Corporation's other banking and trust subsidiaries and selectively underwrites general obligation tax-exempt securities. Northern Futures Corporation is a futures commission merchant. Northern Investment Corporation holds certain investments, including a loan made to a developer of a property in which the Bank is the principal tenant. Berry, Hartell, Evers & Osborne, Inc. is an investment management firm in San Francisco, California. The Northern Trust Company of New York provides security clearance services for all nondepository eligible 4 securities held by trust, agency, and fiduciary accounts administered by the Corporation's subsidiaries. Northern Trust Cayman International, Ltd. provides fiduciary services to clients residing outside of the United States. Hazlehurst & Associates, Inc. is a retirement benefit plan services company in Atlanta, Georgia. RCB International, Inc. in Stamford, Connecticut is an international provider of institutional investment management services, and the parent of RCB Trust Company. INTERNAL ORGANIZATION Northern Trust, under Chairman and Chief Executive Officer William A. Osborn, organizes client services into two principal business units: Corporate and Institutional Services and Personal Financial Services. In addition, the Worldwide Operations and Technology business unit encompasses all trust and banking operations and systems activities. These three business units, along with Investment Services, Corporate Compliance and Corporate Support Services, report to President and Chief Operating Officer Barry G. Hastings. Also, a Risk Management unit focuses on financial and risk management. The following is a brief summary of each unit's business activities. Corporate and Institutional Services (C&IS) Corporate and Institutional Services (C&IS), headed by Sheila A. Penrose, Executive Vice President of the Corporation and of the Bank, provides trust, commercial banking and treasury management services to corporate and institutional clients. Trust activities encompass services for owners of securities in the United States and foreign markets, as well as securities lending, asset management, and related cash management services. Master Trust and Master Custody are the principal products. Services with respect to securities traded in markets foreign to the client is provided primarily through the Bank's London Branch. Related foreign exchange services are also rendered at the London Branch as well as in Chicago. As measured by number of clients, Northern Trust is a leading provider of Master Trust and Master Custody services in various market segments. At December 31, 1995, total assets under administration were $550.5 billion. The major market segments served are large U.S. corporate, middle market, institutional (insurance companies, foundations and endowments, and correspondent trust services), and international clients, and public and union retirement funds. The Northern Trust Company of New York, The Northern Trust Company, Canada, NorLease, Inc., The Northern Trust International Banking Corporation, Northern Futures Corporation, Hazlehurst & Associates, Inc., and RCB International, Inc. are also included in C&IS. A full range of commercial banking services is offered through the Bank which places special emphasis on developing institutional relationships in two target markets: large domestic corporations and financial institutions (both domestic and international). Credit services are administered in two groups: a Large Corporations Group and a Financial Institutions Group. Treasury management services are provided to corporations and financial institutions and include products and services, including lockbox collection, controlled disbursement products and electronic banking, to accelerate cash collections, control disbursement outflows, and generate information to manage cash positions. Personal Financial Services (PFS) Services to individuals is another major dimension of the trust business. Headed by Mark Stevens, Executive Vice President of the Corporation and the Bank, Personal Financial Services (PFS) encompasses personal trust, estate administration, personal banking, mortgage lending and trust and banking services to middle market companies. A key element of the personal trust business is to provide private banking and trust services to targeted high net worth individuals in rapidly growing areas of wealth concentration. PFS services are delivered through the Bank and a network of banking subsidiaries located in Florida, Arizona, California and Texas. PFS is one of the largest bank managers of personal trust assets in the United States, with total assets under administration of $63.4 billion at December 31, 1995. Northern Trust Securities, Inc. and Berry, Hartell, Evers & Osborne, Inc. are also part of PFS. Worldwide Operations and Technology Supporting all of Northern Trust's business activities is the Worldwide Operations and Technology Unit. Headed by James J. Mitchell, Executive Vice President of the Corporation and the Bank, this unit focuses on supporting sales, relationship management, transaction processing and product management activities for C&IS and PFS. 5 Risk Management The Risk Management Unit, headed by Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Perry R. Pero, includes the Credit Policy and Treasury functions. The Credit Policy function is described fully on page 16 of this report. The Treasury Department is responsible for managing the Bank's wholesale funding and interest rate risk, as well as the portfolio of interest rate risk management instruments under the direction of the Corporate Asset and Liability Policy Committee. It is also responsible for the investment portfolios of the Corporation and the Bank and provides investment advice and management services to the subsidiary banks. The Risk Management Unit also includes Corporate Controller, Corporate Treasurer, Investor Relations and Economic Research functions. GOVERNMENT POLICIES The earnings of Northern Trust are affected by numerous external influences, principally general economic conditions, both domestic and international, and actions that the United States and foreign governments and their central banks take in managing their economies. These general conditions affect all of the Northern Trust's businesses, as well as the quality and volume of the loan and investment portfolios. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System is an important regulator of domestic economic conditions and has the general objective of promoting orderly economic growth in the United States. Implementation of this objective is accomplished by its open market operations in United States Government securities, its setting of the discount rate at which member banks may borrow from Federal Reserve Banks and its changes in the reserve requirements for deposits. The policies adopted by the Federal Reserve Board may strongly influence interest rates and hence what banks earn on their loans and investments and what they pay on their savings and time deposits and other purchased funds. Fiscal policies in the United States and abroad also affect the composition and use of Northern Trust's resources. COMPETITION Northern Trust's principal business strategy is to provide quality financial services to targeted market segments in which it believes it has a competitive advantage and favorable growth prospects. As part of this strategy, Northern Trust seeks to deliver a level of service to its clients that distinguishes it from its competitors. In addition, Northern Trust emphasizes the development and growth of recurring sources of fee-based income and is one of only five major bank holding companies in the United States that generates more revenues from fee-based services than from net interest income. Northern Trust seeks to develop and expand its recurring fee-based revenue by identifying selected market niches and providing a high level of individualized service to its clients in such markets. Northern Trust also seeks to preserve its asset quality through established credit review procedures and by maintaining a conservative balance sheet. Finally, Northern Trust seeks to maintain a strong management team with senior officers having broad experience and long tenure. Active competition exists in all principal areas in which the subsidiaries are presently engaged. C&IS and PFS compete with domestic and foreign financial institutions, trust companies, financial companies, personal loan companies, mutual funds and investment advisers. Northern Trust is a leading provider of Master Trust and Master Custody services and has the leading market share in the Chicago area personal trust market. Commercial banking and treasury management services compete with domestic and foreign financial institutions, finance companies and leasing companies. Its products also face increased competition due to the general trend among corporations and other institutions to rely more upon direct access to the credit and capital markets (such as through the direct issuance of commercial paper) and less upon commercial banks and other traditional financial intermediaries. The chief local competitors of the Bank for trust and banking business are Bank of America Illinois N.A., First National Bank of Chicago and its affiliate American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, Harris Trust and Savings Bank, and LaSalle National Bank. Competitive pressures within the custody market have resulted in consolidation in the industry, and the chief national competitors of the Bank for Master Trust/Master Custody services are now Mellon Bank Corporation, State Street Boston Corporation, Bankers Trust New York Corporation, Chase Manhattan Corporation and Bank of New York Company, Inc. REGULATION AND SUPERVISION The Corporation is a bank holding company subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (Act), and to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Act limits the activities which may be engaged in by the Corporation and its nonbanking subsidiaries to those so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Also, under section 106 of the 1970 amendments to the Act and the Federal Reserve Board's regulations, a bank holding company, as well as certain of its subsidiaries, are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit or provision of any property or services. 6 The Act also prohibits bank holding companies from acquiring substantially all the assets of or owning more than 5% of the voting shares of any bank or nonbanking company which is not already majority owned without prior approval of the Board of Governors. Beginning September 29, 1995 the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (Interstate Act) permits an adequately capitalized and adequately managed bank holding company to acquire, with Federal Reserve Board approval, a bank located in a state other than the bank holding company's home state, without regard to whether the transaction is permitted under any state law, except that a host state may establish by statute the minimum age of its banks (up to a maximum of 5 years) subject to acquisition by out-of-state bank holding companies. The Federal Reserve Board may not approve the acquisition if the applicant bank holding company, upon consummation, would control more than 10% of total U.S. insured depository institution deposits or more than 30% of the host state's total insured depository institution deposits. Effective as of September 29, 1994, the Interstate Act permits a bank, with the approval of the appropriate Federal bank regulatory agency, to establish a de novo branch in a state, other than the bank's home state, in which the bank does not presently maintain a branch if the host state has enacted a law that applies equally to all banks and expressly permits all out-of-state banks to branch de novo into the host state. Commencing June 1, 1997, banks having different home states may, with approval of the appropriate Federal bank regulatory agency, merge across state lines, unless the home state of a participating bank has opted-out. The Interstate Act permits as of September 29, 1995 any bank subsidiary of a bank holding company to receive deposits, renew time deposits, close loans, service loans and receive payments on loans and other obligations as agent for a bank or thrift affiliate, whether such affiliate is located in a different state or in the same state. State laws governing the Corporation's banking subsidiaries allow each bank to establish branches anywhere in its state. The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) amended the Act to authorize the Federal Reserve Board to allow bank holding companies to acquire any savings association (whether healthy, failed or failing) and removed "tandem operations" restrictions, which previously prohibited savings associations from being operated in tandem with a bank holding company's other subsidiaries. As a result, bank holding companies now have expanded opportunities to acquire savings associations. Under FIRREA, an insured depository institution which is commonly controlled with another insured depository institution shall generally be liable for any loss incurred, or reasonably anticipated to be incurred, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in connection with the default of such commonly controlled institution, or for any assistance provided by the FDIC to such commonly controlled institution, which is in danger of default. The term "default" is defined to mean the appointment of a conservator or receiver for such institution. Thus, any of the Corporation's banking subsidiaries could incur liability to the FDIC pursuant to this statutory provision in the event of a loss suffered by the FDIC in connection with any of the Corporation's other banking subsidiaries (whether due to a default or the provision of FDIC assistance). Such liability is subordinated in right of payment to deposit liabilities, secured obligations, any other general or senior liability and any obligation subordinated to depositors and or other general creditors, other than obligations owed to any affiliate of the depository institution (with certain exceptions) and any obligations to shareholders in such capacity. Although neither the Corporation nor any of its nonbanking subsidiaries may be assessed for such loss under FIRREA, the Corporation has agreed to indemnify each of its banking subsidiaries, other than the Bank, for any payments a banking subsidiary may be liable to pay to the FDIC pursuant to the provisions of FIRREA. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System, its deposits are insured by the FDIC and it is subject to regulation by both these entities, as well as by the Illinois Commissioner of Banks and Trust Companies. The Bank is also a member of and subject to the rules of the Chicago Clearinghouse Association, and is registered as a government securities dealer in accordance with the Government Securities Act of 1986. As a government securities dealer its activities are subject to the rules and regulations of the Department of the Treasury. The Bank is registered as a transfer agent with the Federal Reserve and is therefore subject to the rules and regulations of the Federal Reserve in this area. The national bank subsidiaries are members of the Federal Reserve System and the FDIC and are subject to regulation by the Comptroller of the Currency. The Corporation's nonbanking affiliates are all subject to examination by the Federal Reserve. In addition, The Northern Trust Company of New York is subject to regulation by the Banking Department of the State of New York. Northern Futures Corporation, which is registered as a futures commission merchant with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, is a member of the National Futures Association, the Chicago Board of Trade and the Board of Trade Clearing Corporation, and a clearing member of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Northern Trust Securities, Inc. is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., and, as such, is subject to the rules and regulations of both these bodies. Berry, Hartell, Evers & Osborne, Inc. is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and is subject to that Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder. RCB International, Inc. is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Illinois Securities Department. Its subsidiary RCB Trust Company is subject to 7 regulation by the Connecticut Department of Banking. Two families of mutual funds for which the Bank acts as investment adviser are also subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act. Various other subsidiaries and branches conduct business in other states and foreign countries and are subject to their regulations and restrictions. The Corporation and its subsidiaries are affiliates within the meaning of the Federal Reserve Act so that the banking subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions with respect to loans to the Corporation or its nonbanking subsidiaries and certain other transactions with them or involving their securities. Information regarding dividend restrictions on banking subsidiaries is incorporated herein by reference to Note 12 titled Restrictions on Subsidiary Dividends and Loans or Advances on page 46 of the Corporation's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1995. Under the FDIC's risk-based insurance assessment system, each insured bank is placed in one of nine risk categories based on its level of capital and other relevant information. Each insured bank's insurance assessment rate is then determined by the risk category in which it has been classified by the FDIC. There is currently a twenty-seven basis point spread between the highest and lowest assessment rates, so that banks classified as strongest by the FDIC are subject in 1996 to no assessment, and banks classified as weakest by the FDIC are subject to an assessment rate of .27%. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) substantially revised the bank regulatory and funding provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and made revisions to several other federal banking statutes. In general, FDICIA subjects banks to significantly increased regulation and supervision. Among other things, FDICIA requires federal bank regulatory authorities to take "prompt corrective action" with respect to banks that do not meet minimum capital requirements, and imposes certain restrictions upon banks which meet minimum capital requirements but are not "well capitalized" for purposes of FDICIA. FDICIA and the regulations adopted under it establish five capital categories as follows, with the category for any institution determined by the lowest of any of these ratios:
Tier 1 Tier 1 Total Leverage Ratio Risk-Based Ratio Risk-Based Ratio -------------- ---------------- ---------------- Well Capitalized 5% or above 6% or above 10% or above Adequately Capitalized 4% or above* 4% or above 8% or above Undercapitalized Less than 4% Less than 4% Less than 8% Significantly Undercapitalized Less than 3% Less than 3% Less than 6% Critically Undercapitalized - - 2% or below
*3% for banks with the highest CAMEL (supervisory) rating. An insured depository institution may be deemed to be in a capital category that is lower than is indicated by the capital position reflected on its balance sheet if it receives an unsatisfactory rating by its examiners with respect to its assets, management, earnings or liquidity. Although a bank's capital categorization thus depends upon factors in addition to the balance sheet ratios in the table above, the Corporation has set goals for each of its subsidiary banks that would allow each bank to meet the minimum ratios that are one of the conditions for it to be considered to be well capitalized. At December 31, 1995, the Bank and each of the other subsidiary banks met or exceeded these goals. The capital ratios are disclosed and discussed on page 30 of the Corporation's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1995. Under FDICIA, a bank that is not well capitalized is generally prohibited from accepting or renewing brokered deposits and offering interest rates on deposits significantly higher than the prevailing rate in its normal market area or nationally (depending upon where the deposits are solicited); in addition, "pass through" insurance coverage may not be available for certain employee benefit accounts. FDICIA generally prohibits a depository institution from making any capital distribution (including payment of a dividend) or paying any management fee to its holding company if the depository institution would thereafter be undercapitalized. Undercapitalized banks are subject to limitations on growth and are required to submit a capital restoration plan, which must be guaranteed by the institution's parent company. Institutions that fail to submit an acceptable plan, or that are significantly undercapitalized, are subject to a host of more drastic regulatory restrictions and measures. FDICIA directs that each federal banking agency prescribe standards for depository institutions or depository institutions' holding companies relating to internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, compensation, a maximum ratio of classified assets to capital, minimum earnings sufficient to absorb losses and other standards as they deem appropriate. Many regulations implementing these directives have been adopted by the agencies. 8 FDICIA also contains a variety of other provisions that affect the operations of a bank, including reporting requirements, regulatory standards for real estate lending, "truth in savings" provisions and a requirement that a depository institution give 90 days' prior notice to customers and regulatory authorities before closing any branch. STAFF Northern Trust employed 6,531 full-time equivalent officers and staff members as of December 31, 1995, approximately 4,563 of whom were employed by the Bank. 9

The Securities and Exchange Commission requires the disclosure of the reserve for credit losses that is applicable to international operations. The above table has been prepared in compliance with this disclosure requirement and is used in determining international operating performance. The amounts shown in the table should not be construed as being the only amounts that are available for international loan charge-offs, since the entire reserve for credit losses is available to absorb losses on both domestic and international loans. In addition, these amounts are not intended to be indicative of future charge-off trends. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISTRIBUTION OF INTERNATIONAL LOANS AND DEPOSITS BY TYPE

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 15 CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT Overview The Credit Policy function reports to the Corporation's Chief Financial Officer. Credit Policy provides a system of checks and balances for Northern Trust's diverse credit-related activities by establishing and monitoring all credit-related policies and practices and ensuring their uniform application. These activities are designed to ensure that credit exposure is diversified on an industry and client basis, thus lessening the overall credit risk. Individual credit authority for commercial loans and within Personal Financial Services is limited to specified amounts and maturities. Credit decisions involving commitment exposure in excess of the specified individual limits are submitted to the appropriate Credit Approval Committee (Committee). Each Committee is chaired by the executive in charge of the area and has a Credit Policy officer as a voting participant. Each Committee's credit approval authority is specified, based on commitment levels, credit ratings and maturities. Credits involving commitment exposure in excess of these group credit limits require, dependent upon the internal credit rating, the approval of the Credit Policy Credit Approval Committee, the head of Credit Policy, or the business unit head. Credit Policy established the Counterparty Risk Management Committee in order to manage counterparty risk more effectively. This committee has sole credit authority for exposure to all foreign banks, certain domestic banks which Credit Policy deems to be counterparties and which do not have commercial credit relationships within the Corporation, and other organizations which Credit Policy deems to be counterparties. Under the auspices of Credit Policy, country exposure limits are reviewed and approved on a country-by-country basis. As part of the Northern Trust's ongoing credit granting process, internal credit ratings are assigned to each client and credit before credit is extended, based on creditworthiness. Credit Policy performs at least annually a review of selected significant credit exposures to identify at the earliest possible stages clients who might be facing financial difficulties. Internal credit ratings are also reviewed during this process. Above average risk loans, which will vary from time to time, receive special attention by both lending officers and Credit Policy. This approach allows management to take remedial action in an effort to deal with potential problems. An integral part of the Credit Policy function is a monthly formal review of all past due and potential problem loans to determine which credits, if any, need to be placed on nonaccrual status or charged off. The provision is reviewed quarterly to determine the amount necessary to maintain an adequate reserve for credit losses. Management of credit risk is reviewed by various bank regulatory agencies. Independent auditors also perform a review of credit-related procedures, the loan portfolio and other extensions of credit, and the reserve for credit losses as part of their examination of the consolidated financial statements. Allocation of the Reserve for Credit Losses The reserve for credit losses is established and maintained on an overall basis and in practice is not specifically allocated to specific loans or segments of the portfolio. Thus, the reserve is available to absorb credit losses from all loans, leases and credit related exposures. Bank disclosure guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission request management to furnish a breakdown of the reserve for credit losses by loan category and provide the percentage of loans in each category to total loans. In prior years, the allocation of the reserve represented an estimate of the amount that was necessary to provide for potential losses related to specific nonperforming loans only. Beginning in 1994, the methodology was revised to allocate the reserve for credit losses associated with all loans, leases and commitments based on historical loss experience, internal credit ratings and specific amounts designated for certain above average risk loans. This allocation method should not be interpreted as an indication of expected losses within the next year or any specified time period. 16 As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the following tables break down the reserve for credit losses: Reserve for Credit Losses

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan applicable to allocations of Company Stock under the Qualified Plan shall also be applicable to a Supplemental ESOP Allocation made hereunder. Any allocation of Company Stock or dividends to be made under the Qualified Plan shall be made solely in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan and nothing in this Plan shall operate or be construed in any way to modify, amend or affect the terms and provisions of the Qualified Plan. 8.3 No Guaranty of Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guaranty by the Company or any other person or entity that the assets of the Company will be sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder. 8.4 No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant shall have any right to receive a distribution under the Plan except in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Establishment of the Plan shall not be construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company. 8.5 Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in, or right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such person or entity, including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance and claims in bankruptcy proceedings. 8.6 Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and administered under the laws of the State of Illinois to the extent not inconsistent with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. 8.7 Incapacity of Recipient. If any benefit under the Plan shall be payable to a minor or a person not adjudicated incompetent but who, by reason of illness or mental or physical disability, is, in the opinion of the Committee, unable to properly manage his affairs, such benefit shall be paid in such of the following ways as the Committee deems best: (a) to the person directly; (b) in the case of a minor, to a custodian under any Uniform Gift to Minors Act for the person; or (c) to the person's spouse, adult child or blood relative. Any benefit so paid shall be a complete discharge of any liability of the Company and Plan therefor. 8.8 Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Company or by the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with any other corporation or other entity, but the Plan shall be continued after such sale, merger or consolidation only if and to the extent that the transferee, purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan. In the event that the Plan is not continued by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the Plan shall terminate subject to the provisions of Section 7.2. 8.9 Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Committee informed of his current address and the current address of his designated Beneficiary. Neither the Company nor the Committee shall be obligated to search for the whereabouts of any person. If the location of a Participant is not made known to the Committee within three (3) years after the date on which distribution of the Participant's Supplemental ESOP Account may first be made, distribution may be made as though the Participant had died at the end of the three-year period. If, within one additional year after such three-year period has elapsed, or within three years after the actual death of a Participant, neither the Company nor the Committee is able to locate any designated Beneficiary of the Participant, then the Company shall have no further obligation to pay any benefit hereunder to such Participant or designated Beneficiary and such benefit shall be irrevocably forfeited; provided, however, that if the Participant or designated Beneficiary makes a valid claim for any benefit that has been so forfeited, the forfeited benefit shall be reinstated. 8.10 Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any of the preceding provisions of the Plan, neither the Company, any member of the Committee, nor any individual acting as an employee or agent of the Company or Committee shall be liable to any Participant, former Participant, Beneficiary or any other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan. 8.11 Gender; Headings.

(a) Subject to Section 8.2, all amounts allocated to a Participant's Supplemental Before-Tax Deposit Account, including gains and losses attributable to investments made pursuant to Section 4.1, shall be distributed to or with respect to the Participant in one lump sum as of the first to occur of (a) the Deferral Distribution Date irrevocably set forth in the related Supplemental Before-Tax Deposit Agreement or (b) the last day of the calendar month following the month in which the Participant's employment with the Company terminates for any reason, including death.

Any unvested amounts credited to a Participant's Supplemental Matching Contribution Account shall be forfeited and retained by the Company. (b) The annual amount to be paid from the Supplemental TIP shall be limited to an amount which will not cause the total amount of compensation received from The Northern Trust to exceed the maximum amount deductible by The Northern Trust under Code section 162(m). Amounts not paid as a result of the above limitation shall be paid in subsequent years, to the extent permissible under the above limitation. (c) If a Participant dies before a complete distribution of his Supplemental Before Tax Deposit Account or his Supplemental Matching Contribution Account has been made to him, such amounts shall be distributed to the Beneficiary designated by the Participant in a writing last delivered to the Committee prior to his death. If a Participant has not designated a Beneficiary, or if no designated Beneficiary is living on the date of distribution, such amounts shall be distributed to those persons entitled to receive distributions of the Participant's accounts under the Qualified Plan.

ARTICLE VII AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION 7.1 Amendment or Termination. The Company intends the Plan to be permanent but reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan when, in the sole discretion of the Company, such amendment or termination is advisable. Any such amendment or termination shall be made pursuant to a resolution of the Board and shall be effective as of the date set forth in such resolution. 7.2 Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall directly or indirectly reduce the balance of any Supplemental Account held hereunder as of the effective date of such amendment or termination. Upon termination of the Plan, disribution of amounts in a Participant's Supplemental Account shall be made to him or his Beneficiary in the manner and at the time described in Section 5.1 of the Plan. No additional credits of Supplemental Before-Tax Deposits or Supplemental Matching Contributions shall be made to the Supplemental Account of a Participant after termination of the Plan, but the Company shall continue to credit gains and losses attributable to investments made pursuant to Section 4.1 to such Supplemental Account until the balance of such Account has been fully distributed to the Participant or his Beneficiary. ARTICLE VIII GENERAL PROVISIONS 8.l Participant's Rights Unsecured. If and to the extent amounts allocated hereunder to the Supplemental Accounts of Participants are contributed by the Company to the Trust described in Section 4.1, benefits under the Plan shall be payable pursuant to the Trust Agreement. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, all assets held thereunder shall remain subject to the general creditor of the Company. The Plan at all times shall be entirely unfunded and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of the Company for payment of any benefits hereunder. No Participant, Beneficiary or any other person shall have any interest in any particular assets of the Company by reason of the right to receive a benefit under the Plan and Trust Agreement and any such Participant, Beneficiary or other person shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to any rights under the Plan and Trust Agreement. 8.2 General Conditions. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan applicable to a Qualified Plan Before-Tax Deposit or a Qualified Plan Matching Contribution shall also be applicable to a Supplemental Before-Tax Deposit or a Supplemental Matching Contribution to be made hereunder. Any Qualified Plan Before-Tax Deposit or Qualified Plan Matching Contribution, or any other contributions to be made under the Qualified Plan, shall be made solely in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan and nothing in this Plan shall operate or be construed in any way to modify, amend or affect the terms and provisions of the Qualified Plan. 8.3 No Guaranty of Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guaranty by the Company or any other person or entity that the assets of the Company will be sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder. 8.4 No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant shall have any right to receive a distribution of contributions made under the Plan except in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Establishment of the Plan shall not be construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company. 8.5 Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in, or right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such person or entity, including claims for alimoney, support, separate maintenance and claims in bankruptcy proceedings. 8.6 Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and administered under the laws of the State of Illinois to the extent not inconsistent with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of l974. 8.7 Incapacity of Recipient. If any benefit under the Plan shall be payable to a minor or a person not adjudicated incompetent but who, by reason of illness or mental or physical disability, is, in the opinion of the Committee, unable to properly manage his affairs, such benefit shall be paid in such of the following ways as the Committee deems best: (a) to the person directly; (b) in the case of a minor, to a custodian under any Uniform Gift to Minors Act for the person; or (c) to the person's spouse, adult child or blood relative. Any benefit so paid shall be a complete discharge of any liability of the Company and the Plan therefor. 8.8 Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Company or by the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with any other corporation or other entity, but the Plan shall be continued after such sale, merger or consolidation only if and to the extent that the transferee, purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan. In the event that the Plan is not continued by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the Plan shall terminate subject to the provisions of Section 7.2. 8.9 Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Committee informed of his current address and the current address of his designated Beneficiary. Neither the Company nor the Committee shall be obligated to search for the whereabouts of any person. If within three years after any benefit becomes due under the Plan to or with respect to any Participant, the Committee is unable to make payment because the identity or whereabouts of such person cannot be ascertained notwithstanding the mailing of notice to any last known address or addresses, the Committee shall make payment of such benefit as though the Participant had died three years after the date such benefit became due. In the event payment cannot be made at that time, the Participant's Supplemental Before-Tax Deposit Account and Supplemental Contribution Account shall be closed out and disposed of in the same manner as forfeitures, but the amount thereof shall be a continuing liability of the Plan. In the event it shall become possible to make payment of the liability at a later date, the amount of the liability shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. 8.10 Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any of the preceding provisions of the Plan, neither the Company, any member of the Committee nor any individual acting as an employee or agent of the Company or Committee shall be liable to any Participant, former Participant, Beneficiary or any other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan. 8.11 Gender; Headings.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the annual amount to be paid from the Plan in the year of a Participant's termination shall be limited to an amount which will not cause the total amount of compensation received from the Company and the amount paid from the Plan to exceed the maximum amount deductible by the Company under Code Section 162(m). Any amount which is not paid as the result of this limitation shall be transferred to the Supplemental Thrift-Incentive Plan for Employees of The Northern Trust Company as of the end of the month next following the month in which such amount would have been paid, but for such limitation. Amounts so transferred shall be paid in subsequent years, to the extent permissible under this limitation, to the Participant, or in the event of the Participant's death, to the Participant's Beneficiary, if he or she survives the Participant, and if not, to the Participant's estate. 3.2 Vesting of Benefit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Participant who commenced receiving payment of a Supplemental Pension Benefit hereunder in the form of an annuity prior to September l, l989, pursuant to the terms of the Plan on the date payment of such Benefit commenced, shall continue to receive such payments from and after September l, l989 in the form of such annuity.

The Committee shall be responsible for the general operation and administration of the Plan and for carrying out the provisions thereof. The Committe shall have discretion to interpret and construe the provisions of the Plan. 5.2 General Powers of Administration.

The Committee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon all tables, valuations, certificates, opinions and reports furnished by any actuary, accountant, controller, counsel or other person employed or engaged by the Committee with respect to the Plan. ARTICLE VI AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION 6.1 Amendment or Termination. The Company intends the Plan to be permanent but reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan when, in the sole discretion of the Company, such amendment or termination is advisable. Any such amendment or termination shall be made pursuant to a resolution of the Board and shall be effective as of the date set forth in such resolution. 6.2 Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall directly or indirectly deprive any current or former Participant or Beneficiary of all or any portion of any Supplemental Pension Benefit or Supplemental Survivor Benefit, payment of which has commenced prior to the effective date of such amendment or termination, or that would be payable if the Participant terminated employment for any reason, including death on such effective date. ARTICLE VII GENERAL PROVISIONS 7.1 Funding. The Company may contribute amounts to fund the benefits under the Plan to a trust ("Trust") established pursuant to a trust agreement between the Company and Harris Trust & Savings Bank, a bank organized and existing under the laws of the State of Illinois, as trustee ("Trust Agreement"). If and to the extent amounts are contributed hereunder by the Company to the Trust, benefits under the Plan shall be payable pursuant to the Trust Agreement. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, all assets held thereunder shall remain subject to the general creditors of the Company. The Plan at all times shall be entirely unfunded and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of the Company for payment of any benefits hereunder. No Participant, Beneficiary or any other person shall have any interest in any particular assets of the Company by reason of right to receive a benefit under the Plan and Trust Agreement and any such Participant, Beneficiary or other person shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to any rights under the Plan and Trust Agreement. 7.2 General Conditions. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms and conditions of the Qualified Plan applicable to a Qualified Plan Pension Benefit or a Qualified Plan Survivor Benefit shall also be applicable to a Supplemental Pension Benefit or a Supplemental Survivor Benefit payable hereunder.

Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guaranty by the Company or any other entity or person that the assets of the Company will be sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder. 7.4 No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant or Beneficiary shall have any right to a benefit under the Plan except in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Establishment of the Plan shall not be construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company. 7.5 Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in, or right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such person or entity, including claims for alimoney, support, separate maintenance and claims in bankruptcy proceedings. 7.6 Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and administered under the laws of the State of Illinois to the extent not inconsistent with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of l974. 7.7 Incapacity of Recipient. If any benefit under the Plan shall be payable to a minor or a person not adjudicated incompetent but who, by reason of illness or mental or physical disability, is, in the opinion of the Committee, unable to properly manage his affairs, such benefit shall be paid in such of the following ways as the Committee deems best: (a) to the person directly; (b) in the case of a minor, to a custodian under any Uniform Gift to Minors Act for the person; or (c) to the person's spouse, adult child or blood relative. Any benefit so paid shall be a complete discharge of any liability of the Company and Plan therefor. 7.8 Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Company or by the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with any other corporation or other entity, but the Plan shall be continued after such sale, merger or consolidation only if and to the extent that the transferee, purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan. In the event that the Plan is not continued by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the Plan shall terminate subject to the provisions of Section 6.2. 7.9 Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Committee informed of his current address and the current address of his Beneficiary. Neither the Company nor the Committee shall be obligated to search for the whereabouts of any person. If the location of a Participant is not made known to the Committee within three (3) years after the date on which payment of the Participant's Supplemental Pension Benefit may first be made, payment may be made as though the Participant had died at the end of the three-year period. If, within one additional year after such three-year period has elapsed, or within three years after the actual death of a Participant, neither the Company nor the Committee is able to locate any Beneficiary of the Participant, then the Company shall have no further obligation to pay any benefit hereunder to such Participant or Beneficiary and such benefit shall be irrevocably forfeited; provided, however, that if the Participant or Beneficiary makes a valid claim for any benefit that has been so forfeited, the forfeited benefit shall be reinstated. 7.10 Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any of the preceding provisions of the Plan, neither the Company, any member of the Committee, nor any individual acting as an employee or agent of the Company or Committee shall be liable to any Participant, former Participant, Beneficiary or any other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan. 7.11 Gender; Headings.

As amended herein, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect and, except as expressly amended herein, shall be unaffected hereby. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Amendment and the provisions of the Lease, the provisions of this Amendment shall control. 21. This Second Amendment to Agreement of Lease is executed by American National Bank and Trust Company, not personally, but in the exercise of the power and authority conferred upon and vested in it as Trustee. It is expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein shall be construed as creating any liability whatsoever against Trustee personally; and in particular, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there shall be no personal liability to pay any indebtedness accruing hereunder or to perform any covenant, either express or implied, herein contained, or to keep, preserve, or sequester any property and all personal liability of every sort, if any, is hereby expressly waived by said Tenant, and by every person now or hereafter claiming any right or security hereunder; and that, so far as the Trustee is concerned, the owner of any indebtedness or liability accruing hereunder shall look solely to the assets of said property and the proceeds thereof for the payment thereof. -16- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be executed as of the day and year first above written.

Madison St. Suite 1200 Chicago, IL 60602 Dear Dick: The following is our Registration and Commission Agreement with regard to the Madison Plaza Three Building, Chicago, Illinois. If your prospective tenant, The Northern Trust Co., registered by Scribcor, Inc. consummates a lease for space in the Madison Plaza Three Building, through your efforts, Madison Plaza Corporation will pay or cause the owner to pay a brokerage commission at a rate of seven percent (7%) of the first year's rent and two percent (2%) of the aggregate rent for the remainder of the lease term. For purposes of this Agreement, the first year's rent shall be deemed to be the average annual base rent payable over the entire term of the lease after deductions of rent abatement if any, and any further concessions granted to the tenant, and without regard to rental adjustment or rental escalation payments for increases in operating expenses or real estate taxes. One half of the commission shall be payable within 30 days from execution of the lease document and start of building construction and the remainder payable 30 days after occupancy by the tenant. This Agreement will be null and void and of no further force or effect in the event any of the following does not occur: 1. The prospect is brought to the property or sales office for a personal inspection by the registrant in the presence of the building leasing agent. 2. That active and meaningful negotiations take place culminating in the consummation of the lease. April 21, 1987 Page Two 3. That the registrant is the procurring cause for said lease. 4. That the prospect agrees to recognize the registrant by indemnifying Madison Plaza Corporation and the owner against any future commission, claims or litigation as a result of the lease transaction. 5. Notwithstanding the above, if another licensed broker or duly authorized individual is properly designated by the prospect to represent them, and said party claims or is entitled to a commission, Madison Plaza Corporation will recognize only that licensed broker or duly authorized individual having a letter or authorization signed by the prospect. If for any reason that tenant fails to occupy the premises, you agree to return all commission monies paid at the time of lease execution. No commission will be paid on options for additional space, unless said space is taken prior to initial occupancy by the tenant, nor will commissions be paid on lease renewals. No commission will be paid on charges factored into the rent, i.e. electricity, periods of free rent, or any above building standard allowances or concessions amortized over the term of the lease to accommodate the tenant. Commissions will only be paid for the initial term of the lease, and in no event for a period longer than fifteen (15) years. In the event the tenant has an option to terminate the lease, commissions will only be paid to the termination date. The commission which will become due and payable under this agreement covers space to be leased by Northern Trust in addition to the space provided for in the lease agreement dated August 21, 1985. Your further act in submitting your prospect will acknowledge your acceptance of our commission policy. Sincerely MIGLIN-BEITLER DEVELOPMENTS /s/ J. PAUL BEITLER J.

WITNESSETH: THAT WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant are parties to a certain Agreement of Lease dated as of August 27, 1985; and WHEREAS, the Agreement of Lease was amended by that certain First Amendment to Agreement of Lease dated as of August 15, 1986 and by that certain Second Amendment to Agreement of Lease dated as of August 6, 1987 (as so amended, the "Lease"); and WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to further amend the Lease as hereinafter set forth; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. The following is inserted at the end of, and as part of, the last full paragraph of Paragraph 2C of the Lease: "Notwithstanding Tenant's right to exclude certain portions of the Premises from the Plans for improvement at a future date (the "Excluded Space"), the Term (as defined in Paragraph 3 hereof) of this Lease shall be deemed to have commenced as to the Excluded Space on the earlier to occur of (a) the date Tenant has received the certificate of the Architect that the Building has been substantially completed and Tenant has received the certificate of the Architect and Tenant's Space Planner that the Premises other than the Excluded Space have been substantially completed pursuant to the Plans; or (b) the date Tenant takes occupancy of the Excluded Space." 2. The last three lines of Paragraph 6 of the Lease are hereby deleted, and the following inserted in lieu thereof: "and, provided further, Tenant has delivered to Landlord certificates evidencing insurance (which insurance shall in all respects and at all times comply with the provisions of Paragraph 17C hereof) against any liability of Landlord arising from serving of alcoholic beverages in the Premises." 3. Paragraph 21 of the Lease is hereby deleted, and the following inserted in lieu thereof: "21. Subordination. This Lease shall be prior to any mortgage or ground or underlying lease, provided, however, Tenant agrees to subordinate its rights hereunder at all times to (i) the lien of any mortgage or mortgages designated by Landlord and all advances made or thereafter made upon the security thereof, and (ii) to all future ground or underlying leases of the Land and the Building designated by the Landlord and to execute any such agreements evidencing such subordination as may be required by the mortgagee or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, and to attorn to and to recognize, as Landlord, the purchaser at a foreclosure sale or the mortgagee or its nominee in the event the mortgagee or such nominee accepts a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or the ground or underlying lessor in the event of termination of such underlying or ground lease in return for and upon delivery to Tenant by such purchaser or such mortgagee or its nominee or the ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, of an agreement providing that in the event of a foreclosure of such mortgage or the giving of the deed in lieu of foreclosure or a termination of such ground or underlying lease, this Lease shall not be terminated and Tenant may remain in possession of the Premises pursuant to the terms of this Lease and retain all the rights, options and privileges granted to it hereunder as long as Tenant is not in default hereunder and continues to perform its obligations hereunder and further providing that the purchaser at a foreclosure sale or transferee in the case of a deed given in lieu of foreclosure or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, will assume all of the obligations of the Landlord in such case; provided, however, that in no event shall the mortgagee, said purchaser at a foreclosure sale, said transferee in the case of a deed given in lieu of foreclosure or ground or -2- underlying lessor, as the case may be, have any personal liability whatsoever hereunder for its own acts or omissions or obligations; and further provided that the mortgagee, said purchaser at a foreclosure sale or said transferee in the case of a deed given in lieu of foreclosure or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, shall also have no personal liability for the acts or omissions or obligations of Landlord arising or to be performed prior to any such sale or transfer of the Land or Building to such party including, without limitation, any liability for any deposits made by the Tenant hereunder, unless such deposits have been transferred to such party; and provided, further, that the mortgagee, said purchaser at a foreclosure sale, said transferee in the case of a deed given in lieu of foreclosure or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, shall be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior Landlord pursuant to Tenant's rights as set forth in Paragraph 35 hereof. Such agreement may, among other things, require the Tenant to notify the mortgagee or the ground or underlying lessor of any default by the Landlord and afford such a mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure such default prior to any termination of this Lease by Tenant provided that the Premises are reasonably usable by Tenant for its normal business activities. Tenant further agrees that, except as to secondary mortgage financing expressly permitted in such mortgage or ground or underlying lease, it will not, without the consent of the mortgagee or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be, voluntarily subordinate this Lease to any lien or encumbrance without the consent of said mortgagee or ground or underlying lessor, as the case may be. To fulfill Tenant's obligations under the provisions of this Paragraph 21, Tenant agrees that it will execute a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement in the form attached to this Lease as Exhibit G." 4. The second full paragraph of Paragraph 25 of the Lease is hereby deleted, and the following inserted in lieu thereof: "The term "Landlord" as used in this Lease means only the owner or the mortgagee in possession (including anyone claiming any title or any interest in the Land or the Building by, through or under said mortgagee) for the time being of the Land and the Building (or the owner of a lease of -3- the Building or of the Land and the Building) of which the Premises form a part, so that in the event of any sale or sales (including a sale or transfer arising by virtue of a foreclosure of any mortgage of the Land or the Building or any deed given in lieu of foreclosure thereof) of the Land and the Building or of said lease, or in the event of a lease of the Building, or the Land and the Building, except for the obligations set forth in Paragraph 36, Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely free and relieved of all covenants and obligations of Landlord thereafter to be performed hereunder, provided any purchaser, transferee or lessee of the Building, or of the Building and the Land has, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 21 hereof, assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder thereafter to be performed." 5. The following sentence is hereby added at the end of and as a part of Paragraph 36B of the Lease: "Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease as aforesaid provided in the event Landlord's interest in the Land or Building or this Lease, or all of the aforesaid, is transferred and Landlord or its affiliate does not remain the developer and manager of the Building, all as a result of a mortgage foreclosure sale of any mortgage of the Land or the Building or a deed given in lieu of foreclosure thereof during the period commencing on the date of execution of this Lease and expiring one (1) year after the Commencement Date of this Lease." 6. The following sentence is inserted at the end of and as part of Paragraph 43C of the Lease: "Further, the rights of Tenant and restrictions set forth in this Paragraph 43 shall also not apply to any sale or transfer of the Land or Building pursuant to a mortgage foreclosure sale of any mortgage of the Land or Building or any deed given in lieu of foreclosure thereof but shall thereafter apply to any transfer by the purchaser who took title at said mortgage foreclosure sale including the holder of said mortgage or its nominee who took title by virtue of said mortgage foreclosure sale or deed in lieu of foreclosure thereof." -4- 7. As amended herein, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect and, except as expressly amended herein, shall be unaffected hereby.

This Third Amendment to Agreement of Lease is executed by American National Bank and Trust Company, not personally, but in the exercise of the power and authority conferred upon and vested in it as Trustee. It is expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein shall be construed as creating any liability whatsoever against Trustee personally; and in particular, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there shall be no personal liability to pay any indebtedness accruing hereunder or to perform any covenant, either express or implied, herein contained, or to keep, preserve, or sequester any property and all personal liability of every sort, if any, is hereby expressly waived by said Tenant, and by every person now or hereafter claiming any right or security hereunder; and that, so far as the Trustee is concerned, the owner of any indebtedness or liability accruing hereunder shall look solely to the assets of said property and the proceeds thereof for the payment thereof. -5- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be executed as of the day and year first above written.

WITNESSETH: ---------- WHEREAS, the Tenant has entered into a certain lease (the "Lease") dated , with Landlord covering premises within a certain building known as (the "Premises"); and more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein; and WHEREAS, the Lender has agreed to make a loan secured by a mortgaged (the "Mortgage") to the Landlord, (is currently the holder of a mortgage covering the Premises pursuant to a Mortgage Deed dated , and recorded in Mortgage Book , Page in (the "Mortgage") securing a loan to the Landlord); and WHEREAS, it is to the mutual benefit of the parties hereto that Lender make such loan to Landlord; and WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to obtaining said loan or was a condition of said loan, that said Mortgage securing said loan be a lien or charge upon the Premises unconditionally prior and superior to the Lease and leasehold interest of Tenant; and WHEREAS, Tenant acknowledges when it is recorded that said Mortgage constitutes, or will constitute, a lien or charge upon the Premises which is, or should be, unconditionally prior and superior to the Lease and leasehold interest of Tenant; and WHEREAS, Lender has been requested by Tenant and by Landlord to enter into a non-disturbance agreement with Tenant; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the parties hereto mutually covenant and agree as follows: 1. The Lease and any extensions, renewals, replacements or modifications thereof, and all of the right, title and interest of the Tenant in and to said Premises are and shall be subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and to all of the terms and conditions contained herein, and to any renewals, modifications, replacements, consolidations and extensions thereof; and, pursuant to Paragraph 43C of the Lease, Lender may exercise its right to purchase the Premises pursuant to the Mortgage before Tenant may exercise its right to purchase the Premises pursuant to Paragraph 43 of the Lease. In the event that Lender shall not elect to exercise its prior right to purchase the Premises pursuant to the Mortgage, and Tenant thereafter does elect to purchase the Premises pursuant to Paragraph 43 of the Lease, then such exercise by Tenant of its right to purchase the Premises pursuant to Paragraph 43 of the Lease shall in all events be subject and subordinate to the terms and conditions of the Mortgage. Tenant agrees that Tenant's right to purchase the Premises set forth in Paragraph 43 of the Lease shall not apply to any transfer of the Premises pursuant to a mortgage foreclosure sale or deed given in lieu of foreclosure thereof. Lender agrees that Tenant's right to purchase the Premises as set forth in Paragraph 43 of the Lease shall apply to (a) any subsequent transfer by Lender of the Premises in the event Lender has acquired title to the Premises pursuant to Lender's right to purchase the Premises as set forth in the Mortgage (and in the event Tenant does so then exercise its right to purchase the Premises, such exercise shall in all events be subject and subordinate to the Mortgage if said Mortgage is then in effect); and (b) any subsequent transfer by the purchaser who took title to the Premises at said mortgage foreclosure sale including the holder of the Mortgage or its nominee who took title by virtue of said mortgage foreclosure sale or deed in lieu of foreclosure thereof (and in the event Tenant does so then exercise its right to purchase the Premises, such exercise shall in all events be subject and subordinate to the Mortgage if said Mortgage is then in effect). 2. Lender consents to the Lease and, in the event of foreclosure of said Mortgage, or in the event Lender comes into possession or acquires title to the Premises as a result of the enforcement of foreclosure of the Mortgage or the note secured thereby, or as a result of any other means, Lender agrees to recognize Tenant and -2- further agrees that it will not terminate the Lease nor disturb Tenant's possession of the Premises so long as Tenant is not in default under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease. 3. Tenant agrees with Lender that if the interests of Landlord in the Premises shall be transferred to and owned by Lender by reason of foreclosure or other proceedings brought by it, or any other manner, or shall be conveyed thereafter by Lender or shall be conveyed pursuant to a foreclosure sale of the Premises (and for purposes of this paragraph, the term "Lender" shall be deemed to include any grantee of the lender or purchaser at foreclosure sale), Tenant shall be bound to Lender under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with any option therefor in the Lease, with the same force and effect as if Lender were the Landlord under the Lease, and Tenant does hereby attorn to Lender as its Landlord, said attornment to be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any of the parties hereto immediately upon Lender succeeding to the interest of the landlord in the Premises. Tenant agrees, however, upon the election of and written demand by Lender within twenty (20) days after Lender receives title to the Premises, to execute an instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Tenant, in confirmation of the foregoing provisions, in which Tenant shall acknowledge such attornment and shall set forth the terms and conditions of its tenancy. 4. Tenant and Lender agree that if Lender shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under the Lease, Lender shall assume all of the obligations of the Landlord under the Lease which arise and are to be performed by the landlord prior to and during the period Lender is the Landlord under the Lease; provided, however, that in no event shall the Lender (a) have any personal liability whatsoever under the Lease for the performance of the Landlord's obligations thereunder (whether such performance or failure of performance shall be that of Lender or any prior Landlord), or (b) bound by an security deposit which Tenant may have paid to any prior landlord, unless such deposit is in an escrow fund available to Lender, or (c) be bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made without Lender's consent. Tenant further agrees with Lender that except as to secondary mortgage financing expressly permitted in the Mortgage, Tenant will not voluntarily subordinate the Lease to any lien or encumbrance without Lender's consent, and in no event shall Tenant voluntarily subordinate the Lease to any lien or encumbrance unless Lender shall have first approved the form and substance of the instrument by which such -3- subordination is accomplished, which approval Lender agrees not to withhold unreasonably. 5. In the event that the landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions or agreements in the Lease, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to the Lender and the Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure such default. Tenant shall not take any action with respect to such default under the Lease including without limitation any action in order to terminate, rescind or void the Lease (provided the Premises are reasonably usable by Tenant for its normal business activities) or to withhold any rental thereunder, for a period of 10 days after receipt of such written notice thereof by the Lender with respect to any such default capable of being cured by the payment of money and for a period of 30 days after receipt of such written notice thereof by the Lender with respect to any other such default (provided, that in the case of any default which cannot be cured by the payment of money and cannot with diligence be cured within such 30-day period because of the nature of such default or because Lender requires time to obtain possession of the Premises in order to cure the default, if the Lender shall proceed promptly to attempt to obtain possession of the Premises, where possession is required, and to cure the same and thereafter shall prosecute the curing of such default with diligence and continuity, then the time within which such default may be cured shall be extended for such period as may be necessary to complete the curing of the same with diligence and continuity). 6. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and assigns. As used herein the term "Tenant" shall include the Tenant, its successors and assigns; the words "foreclosure" and "foreclosure sale" as used herein shall be deemed to include the acquisition of Landlord's estate in the Premises by voluntary deed (or assignment) in lieu of foreclosure, and the word "Lender" shall include the Lender herein specifically named and any of its successors and assigns, including anyone who shall have succeeded to Landlord's interest in the Premises by, through or under foreclosure of the Mortgage. 7. This Agreement shall be the whole and only agreement between the parties hereto with regard to the subordination of the Lease and leasehold interest of Tenant to the lien or charge of the Mortgage in favor of Lender, and shall supersede and cancel any prior agreements as to such, or any, subordination, including, but not limited to, those provisions, if any, contained in the Lease, which provide for the subordination of the Lease and leasehold interest of Tenant to a deed or deeds of trust or to a mortgage or mortgages to be thereafter executed, and shall -4- not be modified or amended except in writing signed by all parties hereto. 8. The use of the neuter gender in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to include the plural, when the sense requires. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have placed their hands and seals the day and year first above written.

If the Tenant elects to build out the 4th Floor Premises with Tenant's Contractor, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord prior to commencement thereof building permits and certificates of appropriate insurance and bonds and upon completion of any installations, alterations or additions, contractor's affidavits and full and final waivers of lien covering all labor and material expended and used in constructing the 4th Floor Premises.

The cost of all work (the "Work") necessary to build out all of the 4th Floor Premises (including, but not limited to, all labor, material, permits and working drawings, design costs and Reimbursables) shall, subject to the credit granted herein, be the responsibility of Tenant. The Landlord does hereby grant to the Tenant a credit (the "Construction Credit") equal to Eight Hundred Forty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred Twenty-Five and 56/100 ($842,725.56) Dollars. The Construction Credit shall be paid in installments by Landlord to the Tenant as the Work progresses within thirty (30) days of Tenant's request indicating the dollar amount of the draw Tenant desires; provided that the Tenant, together with such request, presents to Landlord, reasonable documentation evidencing (i) the amounts of payments previously made by Tenant, in relation to the Work, to the general contractor and any subcontractors and materialmen, including, but not limited to, general contractor's statement and partial and final lien waivers, as the case may be, covering all Work (including design costs and Reimbursables) for which Tenant is requesting payment; and (ii) the percentage of the Work completed.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed in, or implied by this Fifth Amendment to Agreement of Lease, Tenant, at its sole election, may choose not to build out the 4th Floor Premises for and as office space but instead, may choose to utilize the 4th Floor Premises as office storage space and consequently, the work may consist only of labor, materials, permits, and working drawings necessary to prepare and equip the 4th Floor Premises for such use.

Purpose of Plan The purpose of the Annual Performance Plan (the "Plan") is to promote the achievement of superior financial and operating performance of the Northern Trust Corporation and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the "Corporation"), and further the objective of delivering unrivaled service quality to its clients and partners through the awarding of cash incentive payments to selected officers. II. Plan Year The Plan is effective from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1995. III. Eligibility and Participation Eligibility to participate in the Plan is restricted to officers with the title of Vice President and above and who are not eligible for participation in a Specialized Incentive Plan. Plan participation is reviewed each year, and participation in one year does not automatically indicate participation in subsequent Plan years. Participation in the Plan is based upon recommendation from the respective Business Unit Head. IV. Award Funding and Determination At the beginning of each Plan year, the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation will determine a Corporate Earnings Target and profit plan funding for awards under the Annual Performance Plan. The allocation of the Plan award funding to each respective Business Unit will be based on the salaries of eligible officers with the Business Unit. Within each Business Unit, one-half of the available funding for awards under the Plan will be based on the Corporation's financial achievement versus the Corporate Earnings Target. The other half of the award funding is based on the financial achievement of the Business Unit versus the Business Unit's earnings target. For staff support personnel, the available funding for awards will be based entirely on the financial achievement of the Corporation versus the Corporate Earnings Target. The formula determining the pool level funding based on Corporate and Business Unit performance is described in Attachment I. V. Individual Award Determination Individual participant awards will be discretionary. They will be determined by Business Unit Management based on an assessment of individual performance, relative to performance expectations, contribution, competitive level of total compensation, and available award pool funding. VI. Payment of Awards Awards will be paid in cash as soon as practicable following the completion of the Plan year. Awards payable because of a Change in Control of the Corporation pursuant to Paragraph VIII (h) shall be paid in cash as soon as practicable following such Change in Control. VII. Administration The Plan shall be administered by the Management Committee of the Corporation (the "Committee"). Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall be authorized to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The determinations of the Committee in the effective administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall be final and conclusive. The Board of Directors of the Corporation, by written resolution, may amend, suspend, or terminate any or all provisions of the Plan at any time. VIII. Other Provisions The following miscellaneous provisions are applicable to the Plan: (a) Awards paid under the provisions of the Plan are considered pensionable earnings when paid. (b) Termination of employment by a participant during the Plan year, either voluntary or involuntary with cause, and for reasons other than death, disability, or retirement shall result in immediate exclusion from the Plan. (c) Except in the event of the death of a participant, the rights and interests of a participant under the Plan shall not be assigned, encumbered, or transferred. (d) No employee or other person shall have any claim or right to be granted an award under the Plan. Neither the Plan, nor any action taken thereunder, shall be construed as giving any employee or other person any right to be retained in the employ of the Corporation. (e) The Corporation shall have the right to deduct from all payments made under the Plan any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payment. (f) All questions pertaining to the validity, construction and administration of the Plan and any award hereunder shall be determined in conformity with the laws of the State of Illinois. 2 (g) Each participant shall designate a beneficiary (the "Designated Beneficiary") to receive the award, if any, allocated to a participant, in the event of such participant's death. If no Designated Beneficiary survives the participant, it shall be the surviving spouse of the participant or, if there is no surviving spouse, it shall be the participant's estate. (h) Notwithstanding any other terms contained herein, in the event of a Change in Control of the Corporation, discretionary awards shall be paid in accordance with the last sentence of Section V of this Plan and as if the Corporation and Business Units had achieved the respective earnings targets, as described in Section IV. For purposes of this paragraph, a "Change in Control" of the Corporation shall be deemed to occur on the earliest of: (i) The receipt by the Corporation of a Schedule 13D or other statement filed under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), indicating that any entity, person, or group has acquired beneficial ownership, as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, or more than 30% of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors ("voting stock"); (ii) The commencement by any entity, person, or group (other than the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation) of a tender offer or an exchange offer for more than 20% of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation; (iii) The effective time of (A) a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with one or more other corporations as a result of which the holders of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger or consolidation hold less than 80% of the voting stock of the surviving or resulting corporation, or (B) a transfer of substantially all of the property of the Corporation other than to an entity of which the Corporation owns at least 80% of the voting stock; or (iv) The election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation, without the recommendation or approval of the incumbent Board of Directors of the Corporation, or the lesser of (A) three directors or (B) directors constituting a majority of the number of directors of the Corporation then in office. 3 EX-10.XXIV 14 EMPLOYMENT SECURITY AGREEMENT EXHIBIT NUMBER (10)(xxiv) To 1995 FORM 10-K EMPLOYMENT SECURITY AGREEMENT ----------------------------- THIS EMPLOYMENT SECURITY AGREEMENT is entered into this ____________ day of __________________, 1996, between NORTHERN TRUST CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and ____________________________________________________ (the "Executive").

Payments and Benefits Upon a Change in Control. If within two (2) years after a Change in Control (as defined below) or during the Period Pending a Change in Control (as defined below), (i) the Company shall terminate Executive's employment with the Company without Good Cause (as defined below), or (ii) Executive shall voluntarily terminate such employment with Good Reason (as defined below), the Company shall, within 30 days of Executive's Employment Termination (as defined below), make the payments and provide the benefits described below.

For purposes of the preceding sentence, if Executive's number of full fiscal years of participation in the MPP, APP, SIP, and other cash- based plan prior to the Change in Control is less than three, the average amount shall be calculated as the average of the annual amounts paid to Executive over the number of full fiscal years of Executive's participation in the MPP, APP, SIP, and other plans prior to the -1- Change in Control, or the number of full fiscal years of Executive's participation in the MPP, APP, SIP, and other plans prior to Employment Termination, whichever produces a higher average annual amount.

Immediately following the expiration of the continuation period required by the preceding sentence, Executive shall be entitled to continued group health benefit plan coverage (so-called "COBRA coverage") in accordance with Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), it being intended that COBRA coverage shall be consecutive to the benefits and coverage provided for in the preceding sentence. Executive's eligibility for, and premium contribution level under, The Northern Trust Retiree Medical Care Plan and The Northern Trust Medicare Supplemental Plan and any similar or successor plans or programs maintained or contributed to by the Company, shall be determined by adding three years to Executive's age and years of service at Executive's Employment Termination.

All amounts accrued or accumulated on behalf of Executive under the Supplemental Pension Plan for Employees of The Northern Trust Company (the "SERP"), the Supplemental Thrift- Incentive Plan for Employees of The Northern Trust Company (the "Supplemental TIP") and the Supplemental Employee Stock Ownership Plan for Employees of The Northern Trust Company (the "Supplemental ESOP") will immediately be fully vested upon the Change in Control, and the Company shall promptly pay or distribute all such amounts to Executive in accordance with the terms of such plans as in effect on the date of this Agreement (or as of Executive's Employment Termination, if more favorable to Executive).

(f) Salary to Date of Employment Termination. The Company shall pay to Executive any unpaid salary or other compensation of any kind earned with respect to any period prior to Executive's Employment Termination and a lump sum cash payment for accumulated but unused vacation earned through such Employment Termination. 2.

(b) "Good Reason" shall exist if, without Executive's express written consent: (i) The Company shall materially reduce the nature, scope, level or extent of Executive's responsibilities from the nature, scope, level or extent of such responsibilities prior to the Change in Control, or shall fail to provide Executive with adequate office facilities and support services to perform such responsibilities; (ii) The Company shall reduce Executive's salary below that in effect as of the date of this Agreement (or as of the Change in Control, if greater); (iii) The Company shall require Executive to relocate Executive's principal business office or his principal place of residence outside the ______________, ______________ Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (the "Geographical Employment Area"), or assign to Executive duties that would reasonably require such relocation; -3- (iv) The Company shall require Executive, or assign duties to Executive which would reasonably require Executive, to spend more than fifty normal working days away from the Geographical Employment Area during any consecutive twelve-month period; or (v) The Company shall fail to continue in effect any cash or stock- based incentive or bonus plan, retirement plan, welfare benefit plan, or other benefit plan, program or arrangement, unless the aggregate value (as computed by an independent employee benefits consultant selected by the Company) of all such compensation, retirement and benefit plans, programs and arrangements provided to Executive is not materially less than their aggregate value as of the date of this Agreement (or as of the Change in Control, if greater). (c) "Change in Control" shall be deemed to occur on the earliest of: (i) The receipt by the Company of a Schedule 13D or other statement filed under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), indicating that any entity, person, or group has acquired beneficial ownership, as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, of more than 30% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote for the election of directors ("voting stock"); (ii) The commencement by an entity, person, or group (other than the Company or a subsidiary of the Company) of a tender offer or an exchange offer for more than 20% of the outstanding voting stock of the Company; (iii) The effective time of (A) a merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other corporations as a result of which the holders of the outstanding voting stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation hold less than 60% of the voting stock of the surviving or resulting corporation, or (B) a transfer of substantially all of the property of the Company other than to an entity of which the Company owns at least 80% of the voting stock; or (iv) The election to the Board of Directors of the Company, without the recommendation or approval of the incumbent Board of Directors of the Company, of the lesser of: (A) three directors; or (B) directors constituting a majority of the number of directors of the Company then in office.

(g) "Amounts Payable Under Any Cash Bonus Plans" shall mean the sum of whichever of the following are applicable to Executive: (i) the amount that would be awarded to Executive under the MPP, assuming the target award percentage was applicable and Executive was employed for the full fiscal year in which Executive's Employment Termination occurs; (ii) the average of the annual amounts paid to Executive under the APP with respect to the last three full fiscal years of Executive's participation in the APP prior to Employment Termination or, if higher, prior to the Change in Control; (iii) the average of the annual amounts paid to Executive under the SIPs with respect to the last three full fiscal years of Executive's participation in the SIPs prior to Employment Termination or, if higher, prior to the Change in Control; and (iv) the average of the annual amounts paid to Executive under any other cash-based incentive or bonus plans in which Executive participates after the date of this Agreement with respect to the last three full fiscal years of Executive's participation in such plans prior to Employment Termination or, if higher, prior to the Change in Control. For purposes of the preceding sentence, if Executive's number of full fiscal years of participation in the APP, SIP, or other cash-based plan prior to the Change in Control is less than three, the amount under clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this paragraph shall be calculated as the average of the annual amounts paid to Executive over the number of full fiscal years of Executive's participation in the APP, SIP, or other plans prior to the Change in Control, or the number of full fiscal years of Executive's participation in the APP, SIP, or other plans prior to Employment Termination, whichever produces a higher average annual amount. (h) "Period Pending a Change in Control" shall mean the period after the approval by the Company's stockholders and prior to the effective time of (A) a merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other corporations as a result of which the holders of the outstanding voting stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation hold less than 60% of the voting stock of the surviving or resulting corporation, or (B) a transfer of substantially all of the property of the Company other than to an entity of which the Company owns at least 80% of the voting stock. 3. Certain Additional Payments by the Company. (a) Gross-Up. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any payment or distribution by or on behalf of the Company to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section 3) (the "Payments") is determined to be an "excess parachute payment" pursuant to Code Section 280G or any successor or substitute provision of the Code, with the effect that Executive is liable for the payment of the excise tax described in Code Section 4999 or any successor or substitute provision of the Code, or any interest or penalties are -5- incurred by Executive with respect to such Payments (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (the "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that after payment by Executive of all taxes imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, including, without limitation, federal, state, local or other income taxes, FICA taxes, and additional Excise Tax (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), Executive retains a portion of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. (b) Determination of Gross-Up. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(c), all determinations required to be made under this Section 3, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by the public accounting firm that serves as the Company's auditors (the "Accounting Firm"), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Company or Executive that there have been Payments, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, Executive shall designate another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 3, shall be paid by the Company to Executive within five days after the receipt by the Company and Executive of the Accounting firm's determination. If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive, it shall furnish Executive with a written opinion that failure to report the Excise Tax on Executive's applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and Executive, except as provided in paragraph (c) below. (c) IRS Claims. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service or other agency will claim that a greater Excise Tax is due, and thus a greater amount of Gross-Up Payment should have been made by the Company than that determined pursuant to paragraph (b) above (an "Underpayment"). In the event that Executive is required to make a payment of any such Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred, if any, and such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive. Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service or other agency that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment or an Underpayment. 4. Mitigation and Set-Off. Executive shall not be required to mitigate Executive's damages by seeking other employment or otherwise. The Company's obligations under this Agreement shall not be reduced in any way by reason of any compensation or benefits received (or foregone) by Executive from sources other than the Company after Executive's Employment -6- Termination, or any amounts that might have been received by Executive in other employment had Executive sought such other employment. Executive's entitlement to benefits and coverage under this Agreement shall continue after, and shall not be affected by, Executive's obtaining other employment after his Employment Termination, provided that any such benefit or coverage shall not be furnished if Executive expressly waives the specific benefit or coverage by giving written notice of waiver to the Company. 5. Litigation Expenses. The Company shall pay to Executive all out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by Executive in the event Executive successfully enforces any provision of this Agreement in any action, arbitration or lawsuit. 6. Assignment; Successors. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Company without the written consent of Executive but the obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be the binding legal obligations of any successor to the Company by merger, consolidation or otherwise, and in the event of any business combination or transaction that results in the transfer of substantially all of the assets or business of the Company, the Company will cause the transferee to assume the obligations of the Company under this Agreement. This Agreement may not be assigned by Executive during Executive's life, and upon Executive's death will inure to the benefit of Executive's heirs, legatees and legal representatives of Executive's estate. 7. Interpretation. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. 8. Withholding. The Company may withhold from any payment that it is required to make under this Agreement amounts sufficient to satisfy applicable withholding requirements under any federal, state or local law. 9. Amendment or Termination. This Agreement may be amended at any time by written agreement between the Company and Executive. The Company may terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Executive at least two years prior to the effective date of such termination, provided that, if a Change in Control occurs prior to the effective date such termination, the termination of this Agreement shall not be effective and Executive shall be entitled to the full benefits of this Agreement. Any such amendment or termination shall be made pursuant to a resolution of the Board. 10. Financing. Cash and benefit payments under this Agreement shall constitute general obligations of the Company. Executive shall have only an unsecured right to payment thereof out of the general assets of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, by agreement with one or more trustees to be selected by the Company, create a trust on such terms as the Company shall determine to make payments to Executive in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 11. Severability. In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect. -7- 12. Other Agreements. This Agreement supersedes and cancels the Prior Agreement, and all prior written or oral agreements and understandings relating to the terms of this Agreement or the Prior Agreement. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on the day and year first written above.

EX-13 16 ANNUAL REPORT EXHIBIT NUMBER (13) TO 1995 FORM 10-K Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Northern Trust Corporation (Corporation) is a bank holding company organized in 1971 to hold all of the outstanding capital stock of The Northern Trust Company (Bank), an Illinois banking corporation with its headquarters located in the Chicago financial district. The Corporation also owns banks in each of the states of Arizona, California, Florida and Texas, and various other nonbank subsidiaries, including a securities brokerage firm, a futures commission merchant, an international investment consulting firm and a retirement benefit plan services company. The Corporation's three other Illinois banks were merged into the Bank on February 29, 1996. Although the operations of other subsidiaries will be of increasing significance, it is expected that the Bank will continue to be the major source of the consolidated assets, revenues and net income in the foreseeable future. All references to Northern Trust refer to Northern Trust Corporation and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with Northern Trust's Consolidated Fi- nancial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statistics included herein. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW. Net income for 1995 totaled a record $220.0 million, a 20.8% increase from the $182.2 million earned in 1994 which in turn was 8.5% greater than the $167.9 million earned in 1993. On a fully diluted basis, net income per common share increased 17% to $3.70 in 1995, compared with net income per common share of $3.16 in 1994 and $2.95 in 1993. The record 1995 net income performance, together with strong growth in equity, produced a return on average common stockholders' equity of 17.6% compared with 16.6% in 1994 and 17.9% in 1993. The return on average assets was 1.13% in 1995 compared with 1.02% in 1994 and 1.07% in 1993. 1995 marks the eighth consecutive year of record earnings. Trust fees reached a new high, surpassing $500 million, while trust assets under administration reached $614 billion at December 31, 1995, up $115 billion from 1994. The record earnings resulted from excellent growth in all of Northern Trust's diversified revenue sources combined with strong expense control. Primarily through the retention of earnings, stockholders' equity grew to $1.5 billion as compared to $1.3 billion at December 31, 1994 and $1.2 billion at December 31, 1993. The Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend per common share 19.2% in November 1995, to $.31 from $.26, for a new annual rate of $1.24. This is the ninth consecutive year in which the dividend rate has been increased, and reflects a policy of increasing the dividend rate with increased profitability while retaining sufficient earnings to allow for strategic expansion and the maintenance of a strong balance sheet. Northern Trust's strategy will focus on those businesses with the greatest growth and profitability potential while continuing to emphasize service quality, cost containment and the maximization of the benefits derived from its investments in technology. Expense growth and capital expenditures are also closely monitored to ensure that short- and long-term business strategies are effectively supported. In early 1995, Northern Trust committed to control its expense growth rate by taking approximately $50 million out of base expenses over the next three years. Northern Trust met its goal for 1995 and now expects to meet the balance of the three-year goal during 1996. SUMMARY OF SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA

12 Northern Trust Corporation NONINTEREST INCOME. The success of Northern Trust's strategy of maintaining a diverse revenue base is evidenced by the fact that noninterest income represents 63% of its total taxable equivalent revenue, compared with 62% one year ago, exclusive of the $28.5 million 1994 pretax gain on the sale of the Corporation's 21% interest in Banque Scandinave en Suisse (BSS). Noninterest income totaled $678.1 million in 1995, $633.4 million in 1994 and $553.8 million in 1993. TRUST FEES. Trust fees accounted for nearly 75% of total noninterest income and 47% of total taxable equivalent revenue in 1995. Trust fees for 1995 increased 11% to $505.0 million from $453.4 million in 1994 which was up 12% from $404.8 million in 1993. Trust fees have increased at a compound growth rate of 13% for the last five years. The increase in 1995 trust fees is principally the result of growth in business from new and existing clients, particularly for investment management, custody, retirement services and securities lending services coupled with growth in stock and bond market values. The March 31, 1995 acquisition of The Beach Bank of Vero Beach, Florida (Beach Bank) and the October 31, 1995 acquisition of RCB International, Inc. (RCB), an international provider of institutional investment management services, contributed approximately $6.1 million in trust fees in 1995. Contributing to the 1994 fee growth were new business results in addition to the incremental impact of fees contributed by Hazlehurst & Associates, Inc. (Hazlehurst), an April 1994 acquisition. Fees are based on the market value of assets managed and administered, transaction fees and other services rendered. Asset-based fees are typically determined on a sliding scale so that as the value of a client portfolio grows in size, Northern Trust receives a smaller percentage of the increasing value as fee income. Therefore, market value or other incremental changes in a portfolio's size do not typically have a proportionate impact on the level of trust fees. In addition to fees, certain trust-related activities result in deposits, primarily interest-bearing, which are maintained with the bank subsidiaries and foreign branches. These deposits averaged $4.6 billion in 1995 and $3.9 billion in 1994. Northern Trust's fiduciary business encompasses Master Trust, Master Custody, investment management and retirement services for corporate and institutional asset pools, as well as a complete range of estate planning, fiduciary, and asset management services for individuals. Fees from these highly focused services are fairly evenly distributed between Northern Trust's two business units, Corporate and Institutional Services (C&IS) and Personal Financial Services (PFS). The discussion of trust activities in each of these business units follows. CORPORATE AND INSTITUTIONAL SERVICES. At December 31, 1995 trust assets under administration in C&IS totaled $550.5 billion, an increase of 23% from $447.2 billion a year ago. Trust fees in C&IS increased 12% in 1995 to $257.5 million from $230.1 million in 1994 which was up 18% from $195.0 million in 1993. Northern Trust is a leading provider of Master Trust and Master Custody services to large U.S. corporate, middle market, institutional and international clients, and public and union retirement funds. In addition to Master Trust and Master Custody, C&IS offers a comprehensive array of retirement service and investment service products. Large U.S. Corporate. Trust fees from the large U.S. corporate market segment totaled $86.1 million in 1995. Trust fees for this segment in 1994 and 1993 totaled $81.4 million and $77.3 million, respectively. Assets under administration totaled $186.5 billion at December 31, 1995 compared with $152.9 billion a year ago. Much of the anticipated growth in retirement assets is expected to be from defined contribution plans of U.S. corporations. Northern Trust believes that it is well-positioned to benefit from this trend given its long-term relationships with corporate sponsors, its family of institutional funds, and the services offered through Hazlehurst. Middle Market. Trust fees from the middle market segment totaled $25.3 million in 1995. Trust fees for this segment in 1994 and 1993 totaled $25.1 million and $22.4 million, respectively. Assets under administration totaled $19.0 billion at December 31, 1995 compared with $17.1 billion a year ago. New business has primarily been attributable to the sale of investment service products. Effective January 1, 1996, the trust and banking activities of the middle market segment transferred to the PFS business unit. Institutional. This market segment, which includes insurance companies, foundations and endowments, and correspondent trust services, provides attractive growth opportunities for trust and banking services. The insurance industry continues to consolidate its relationships with providers who can meet their full range of banking and custody needs. Northern Trust seeks to maintain an array of products and services, a strong capital position and systems capabilities that position it to increase its share of this market. It is a leading provider of custody services to foundations and endowments. Three of the ten largest foundations are clients as are many of the largest endowment funds in the United States. Northern Trust leverages its investment in technology by providing smaller bank trust departments with custody, systems, and investment services through its correspondent trust services offerings. Trust fees from the institutional market segment in 1995, 1994 and 1993 totaled $50.1 million, $48.0 million Northern Trust Corporation 13 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) and $43.4 million, respectively. Assets under administration at December 31, 1995 increased to $141.6 billion from $118.9 billion at December 31, 1994. International. This segment is composed of non-U.S. clients from eighteen countries and has had the highest compound growth rate for the last three years when measured in terms of assets under administration and trust fees. At December 31, 1995 assets under administration totaled $67.3 billion, up 40% from $48.1 billion at year-end 1994, which in turn was up 51% over the previous year-end. Trust fees for 1995 increased 18% to $33.9 million. This compares with $28.8 million in 1994 which was up 56% from $18.4 million in 1993. Northern Trust continues to invest in the required systems capabilities and sub-custodial network necessary to capitalize on the growth opportunities presented by the development of worldwide financial markets. Retirement Services. Public and union retirement funds and the operations of Hazlehurst are included in retirement services. In 1995 these activities contributed $58.3 million in trust fees, compared with $46.8 million in 1994 and $33.5 million in 1993. At December 31, 1995, $104.7 billion of assets were under administration versus $83.8 billion at December 31, 1994. Growth in this area has been driven by increased funding of plans by state and local public entities and the use of outside service providers as reporting requirements have become more complex. Although the public and union retirement funds market segment tends to be price sensitive, investments in technology have allowed Northern Trust to compete effectively on the basis of both cost and quality of service to the client. The services offered through Hazlehurst include retirement plan design, participant recordkeeping, and actuarial and consulting services that complement Northern Trust's custody, fiduciary and investment management capabilities in the strategically important retirement services market. Investment Services. Investment management activities, securities lending, and the operations of RCB are included in investment services. This group is responsible for the managed portion of trust assets under administration that are shown within the various market segments. Fees associated with these activities, with the exception of RCB-related fees, are also shown within the market segments. Total assets under management grew from $51.5 billion at year- end 1994 to $67.2 billion at year-end 1995; $35.8 billion was direct asset management while the remaining $31.4 billion was securities lending collateral. Northern Trust accelerated in 1995 its positioning as a global, multi-asset class manager with an expanded array of investment service and product capabilities. Advisory services assist clients in defining and evaluating their investment strategy. Investment products, developed by Northern Trust and selected partners, help clients implement their investment strategies. Information products, delivered through Passport, provide assistance in monitoring conformance with investment policy guidelines. Northern Trust continues to be ranked by Pensions and Investments magazine as one of the largest institutional money managers in the U.S. On October 31, 1995, Northern Trust completed its acquisition of RCB International, Inc., which had $5.0 billion in assets under management at year- end 1995 and provided $3.8 million in trust fees in 1995. RCB provides value- added U.S. and international multiple manager programs to complement the capabilities of Northern Trust in the fixed income, equity and short-term markets. Clients who utilize trust services may elect to have their securities lent to generate revenues, thereby improving their portfolio's total return. The cash that has been deposited by investment firms as collateral for securities they have borrowed from trust clients under the securities lending program is managed by Northern Trust and included in trust assets under management. The growth in domestic and international lending fees, up 19% over 1994, reflects an increase in the volume of securities loaned. The cash collateral totaled $31.4 billion and $26.4 billion at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. During the first quarter of 1995, Northern Trust commenced operations in its new Hong Kong subsidiary to better facilitate the lending of securities from its clients' global portfolios. Also in 1995, additional investment options were made available to those clients participating in the securities lending program thereby allowing clients to have more control over the degree of investment risk which they assume. Custody Services. With respect to the basic custody service product, price competition has remained intense in all segments of the corporate trust business. Northern Trust believes that it is positioned to deal with these pressures and maintain acceptable profitability because of its focus on providing unrivaled service quality, developing deeper client relationships that include services other than basic custody, economies of scale and technological innovation. In terms of assets under administration, global custody is one of the fastest growing products within C&IS. This product provides the necessary service capabilities for the growing volume of foreign assets that are held by U.S. and non-U.S. domiciled clients. Through its worldwide network of subcustodians in 66 countries, Northern Trust had global assets of approximately $85 billion under administration at December 31, 1995 which is 30% greater than last year. 14 Northern Trust Corporation CONSOLIDATED TRUST ASSETS UNDER ADMINISTRATION

PERSONAL FINANCIAL SERVICES. At December 31, 1995 trust assets under administration in PFS totaled $63.4 billion, an increase of 23% from $51.4 billion at December 31, 1994. Trust fees increased 11% in 1995 to $247.5 million while 1994 trust fees totaled $223.3 million, an increase of 7% from $209.8 million in 1993. Although all geographic markets contributed to the 1995 increase, the strongest fee growth occurred in the Wealth Management Group and the Florida and Texas markets. Northern Trust has positioned itself in states having significant concentrations of wealth and growth potential, with a network of 52 locations in Illinois, Florida, California, Arizona, and Texas as of February 1996. With an established presence in these growing markets, Northern Trust believes that it has the momentum to continue to grow personal trust fees. Illinois. Personal trust fees in Illinois increased 8% to $124.0 million in 1995 from $114.7 million in 1994, which was up 5% from $109.8 million in 1993. Over 40% of the increase in Illinois-based PFS fees is attributable to the rapid growth in services provided by the Wealth Management Group. Northern Trust's Wealth Management Group provides customized products and services to meet the complex financial needs of families throughout the country with assets typically exceeding $100 million. The moderate rate of growth in other trust fees in Illinois is attributable, in part, to the maturity of the trust business within the lead bank in Chicago. As assets are distributed or liquidated from older trust accounts, revenues from the existing book of business decline and partially offset the effect of new business. Northern Trust has the leading market share in the Chicago area personal trust market. Including the Wealth Management Group, total trust assets under administration totaled $40.1 billion at December 31, 1995 compared with $32.8 billion a year ago. Over the years clients have been attracted by both the quality of trust services and the financial strength and stability which Northern Trust has consistently achieved. These qualities, combined with credit ratings that are top tier, have allowed Northern Trust to enhance the growth of its personal trust business. It is expected that the Chicago area market will continue to be a significant contributor to personal trust revenues. Florida. The personal trust business in Florida continues to be a significant contributor to the growth in personal trust fees. Trust fees for 1995 totaled $65.9 million, up 15% from $57.2 million in 1994 which was up 9% from $52.2 million in 1993. Included in the 1995 results is $2.3 million of fees contributed by Beach Bank, a March 31, 1995 acquisition. Trust assets under administration were $13.2 billion at December 31, 1995, and $10.3 billion at year-end 1994. The five-year compound growth rates for trust fees and trust assets have been 13% and 15%, respectively. With two new offices in Vero Beach and one each in Bradenton, Bonita Springs and Delray Beach, Northern Trust now has twenty-one offices located in coastal communities encompassing the southern half of the state. Management believes there remains significant opportunity for growth in the markets currently served in Florida. California. Northern Trust's California subsidiary has six offices strategically located throughout the state to reach the California trust market. Trust fees for 1995 increased 9% to $37.0 million from $34.0 million in 1994 which was up 5% from $32.3 million in 1993. Trust assets under administration totaled $6.1 billion at December 31, 1995 and $5.3 billion at December 31, 1994. Arizona. Northern Trust Bank of Arizona N.A. is one of the largest providers of personal trust services in the state. As in other markets, the strategy in Arizona includes providing private banking and trust services to targeted high net worth individuals. Trust fees from this market were $13.7 million in 1995, $12.8 million in 1994 and $11.9 million in 1993. Assets under administration at December 31, 1995 and 1994 totaled $2.1 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively. Northern Trust Corporation 15 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Texas. Northern Trust expanded its presence in Texas during 1995 with the acquisition of Tanglewood Bancshares, Inc., parent company of Tanglewood Bank N.A. of Houston, in the third quarter. The two banking locations acquired now provide trust services and complement Northern Trust's existing facilities, positioning Northern Trust as a premier provider of personal trust and financial services in this attractive market. With offices in Dallas and Houston, Northern Trust Bank of Texas N.A. is located in the two most important metropolitan markets in the state and has expanded from one office to six offices since its entry into the Texas market in 1989. Trust fees for 1995, 1994 and 1993 were $6.9 million, $4.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. Trust assets under administration were $1.9 billion at December 31, 1995 and $1.3 billion at December 31, 1994. Investment Management. Northern Trust believes that its expertise in investment management provides a competitive advantage in executing its personal trust strategy. For example, investment management performance for bond accounts remains in the top quartile for every cumulative performance period from one through nine years ended December 31, 1995, as measured by SEI, a nationally recognized plan sponsor consultant. Investment management performance for equity accounts was solidly above the median for every cumulative performance period from six through ten years ended December 31, 1995, as measured by SEI. Northern Trust leveraged its investment expertise with the establishment in 1994 of a second mutual fund family, the Northern Funds. Assets in this family of funds reached $3.6 billion at year-end. This mutual fund family serves the investment needs of personal clients, while the Benchmark family of mutual funds continues to serve the needs of institutional clients. The national personal trust strategy will focus primarily on increasing market share in present geographic locations and other selected upscale personal markets. In Florida, expansion into additional counties is planned over the next three to five years. This expansion will be achieved primarily de novo, but may include selective acquisitions. In the newer growth areas around Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona, there are plans to open new offices during the course of the next several years. In Illinois, certain suburban communities have been identified for new offices and an additional inner city location is also contemplated. SECURITY COMMISSIONS AND TRADING INCOME. Security commissions and trading income totaled $21.7 million in 1995, compared with $22.0 million in 1994 and $21.3 million in 1993. This income is primarily generated from securities brokerage and futures contract services. Additional revenue is provided from underwriting selected general obligation tax-exempt securities, security trades and interest risk management activities with clients. The 1995 results reflect modest growth in security brokerage activities offset by a decline in the clearing volume of futures contracts. OTHER OPERATING INCOME. Other operating income in 1995 totaled $150.4 million compared with $158.1 million in 1994 and $125.9 million in 1993. The 1994 results included a $28.5 million pretax gain on the sale of BSS, which was net of approximately $6.0 million in ancillary and other sale-related transition costs associated with the transfer of custody accounts from BSS to the Bank's London branch. The principal items included in other operating income are foreign exchange trading profits and treasury management fees. Foreign exchange trading profits totaled a record $55.3 million, up 54% from the $35.9 million reported a year ago, which was up from $32.4 million in 1993. A substantial component of foreign exchange profits resulted from transactions associated with the growing global custody business. As custodian, Northern Trust provides foreign exchange services in the normal course of business. Active management of currency positions, within established limits, produced an ancillary component of aggregate trading profits. The fee portion of treasury management revenues totaled $49.6 million in 1995, a 7% increase from the $46.3 million reported in 1994 compared with $49.0 million in 1993. Total treasury management revenues, which, in addition to fees, include the value of compensating deposit balances, increased 6% to $77.5 million from $73.0 million in 1994 and $72.4 million in 1993. Other operating income in 1995 reflected losses of $.5 million from the sale of mortgage loans, compared with gains of $.1 million in 1994 and $3.9 million in 1993. Other operating income in 1995 also benefited from higher fees on trust-related overnight advances offset by lower revenues from operating other real estate owned (OREO) assets. A significant portion of noninterest income is generated through trust, treasury management, brokerage, check processing, payment and security clearing, and other banking-related services. In providing these services, which are principally paid for in fees rather than compensating balances, Northern Trust, in addition to safekeeping and managing trust and corporate assets, processed cash and security transactions exceeding $90 billion on average each business day. Controls over such activities are closely monitored to safeguard the assets of Northern Trust and its clients. INVESTMENT SECURITY GAINS AND LOSSES. Net security gains totaling $1.0 million were realized in 1995 primarily from held to maturity securities that were called at a premium, in addition to $.1 million in gains from the sale of securities classified as available for sale. This compares with net losses of $.1 million in 1994 and $1.8 million in net gains in 1993. 16 Northern Trust Corporation ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME (FTE)

Refer to page 60 for detailed analysis of net interest income. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income is defined as the total of interest income and amortized fees on earning assets less interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds adjusted for the impact of off-balance sheet hedging activity. Earning assets, which consist of securities, loans and money market assets, are financed by a large base of interest-bearing funds, including retail deposits, wholesale deposits, short-term borrowings, senior notes and long-term debt. Earning assets are also funded by net noninterest-related funds. Net noninterest-related funds consist of demand deposits, the reserve for credit losses and stockholders' equity, reduced by noninterest-bearing assets including cash and due from banks, items in process of collection, buildings and equipment and other net nonearning assets. Variations in the level and mix of earning assets, interest-bearing funds and net noninterest- related funds, and their relative sensitivity to interest rate movements, are the dominant factors affecting net interest income. In addition, net interest income is impacted by the level of nonperforming loans and OREO and client use of compensating balances to pay for services. Net interest income for 1995 was a record $357.6 million, up 7% from $334.6 million in 1994, which was up 2% from $327.9 million in 1993. When adjusted to a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable and partially taxable assets are comparable, although the adjustment to a FTE basis has no impact on net income. Net interest income on a FTE basis for 1995 was a record $395.2 million, an increase of $27.2 million or 7% from $368.0 million in 1994 which in turn was up 2% from $362.0 million in 1993. The growth in FTE net interest income was essentially attributable to growth in average earning assets, due in part to acquisitions, and was partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin to 2.30% from 2.34% last year and 2.64% in 1993. Earning assets averaged $17.2 billion, up 9% or $1.5 billion from the $15.7 billion reported in 1994, which was up from $13.7 billion in 1993. Approximately 15% of the growth in earning assets resulted from the Beach Bank and Tanglewood Bank acquisitions. Inclusive of these acquisitions, the growth in average earning assets reflects a 10% or $820 million increase in loans, a 24% or $1.2 billion increase in securities and a 23% or $555 million decline in money market assets. Loan volume for the year averaged $9.1 billion reflecting a $921 million or 12% increase in domestic lending while international loans decreased $101 million. The domestic growth came principally from residential mortgage activities, up $446 million, and commercial and industrial loans, up $365 million. Reflected in the total loan growth are non-interest bearing domestic and international overnight advances, related to processing certain trust client investments, which averaged $663 million in 1995, up 17% from a year ago, resulting from domestic activity. Securities averaged $6.2 billion in 1995 versus $5.0 billion in 1994, due primarily to a $1.8 billion increase in short-term federal agency and other marketable securities, offset in part by a $554 million reduction in U.S. Government securities. Money market assets averaged $1.9 billion in 1995 versus $2.4 billion in 1994, reflecting a decrease in international deposit placement activity. Northern Trust Corporation 17 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) The increase in average earning assets of $1.5 billion was funded primarily by growth in interest-bearing time deposits, which averaged $9.3 billion, up $1.0 billion. This growth was principally from savings certificates, up $771 million due in large part to certificate of deposit marketing campaigns. Global custody deposit activity in the London branch was up $103 million, while other foreign time deposits increased $106 million. Other interest-related funds averaged $5.2 billion, up $163 million, principally from securities sold under agreements to repurchase (up $325 million) and federal funds purchased (up $213 million), and offset by a $375 million decline in senior notes and all other borrowings. Average net noninterest-related funds increased $257 million, mainly due to higher stockholders' equity and demand deposits. Stockholders' equity for the year averaged $1.4 billion, an increase of $147 million or 12% from 1994, principally due to strong earnings performance. The increase in average demand deposits reflects higher levels of trust-related deposits and balances resulting from acquisitions. The net interest margin declined to 2.30% from 2.34% last year due primarily to lower spreads on the higher volume of short-term liquid assets funded by short- term liabilities, coupled with lower loan-related fees resulting from a reduced volume of residential mortgage refinancing activity. Also contributing to the decline in the interest margin was the increase in the level of nonearning trust-related overnight advances. PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES. Asset quality remained strong which resulted in the provision for credit losses being unchanged from the prior year at $6.0 million, down from $19.5 million in 1993. For a discussion of the reserve for credit losses, refer to pages 23 and 24. NONINTEREST EXPENSES. Noninterest expenses for 1995 totaled $709.2 million, up $8.7 million or 1% from $700.5 million in 1994, which was up 12% from $628.2 million in 1993. Total expenses included $10.3 million of incremental expenses resulting from 1995 acquisitions. As a result of a reduction in premium rates, FDIC insurance expense in 1995 declined by $7.7 million compared to last year. Also included in the 1995 results is a $4.1 million pension settlement charge. Noninterest expenses in 1994 included $30.9 million of nonrecurring charges. Exclusive of all of these items for both years, 1995 noninterest expenses increased 5% over last year. The majority of this increase was the result of continued investment in technology and expansion of the personal trust and banking office network. The productivity ratio, defined as noninterest income plus net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis before the provision for credit losses, divided by noninterest expenses, was 151% for 1995 compared with 143% in 1994 and 146% in 1993. SALARIES AND BENEFITS. Salaries and benefits, which represent 59% of total noninterest expenses, increased 7% to $419.1 million in 1995 from $391.4 million in 1994, which was up 8% from $361.5 million in 1993. Salary costs, the largest component of noninterest expenses, totaled $337.6 million, up $21.0 million or 7% from $316.6 million a year ago. Included in the 1994 results was a $4.2 million addition to salary expense relating to overtime back pay obligations. The principal items contributing to the change in 1995 were merit increases, incentive compensation, and staff additions from the Beach Bank, Tanglewood Bank and RCB acquisitions, and to support Northern Trust's growing global custody and retirement services activities. The record earnings performance, together with the price increase in Northern Trust Corporation stock, increased incentive-based compensation to $43.9 million, a 23% increase from a year ago. Also contributing to the increase was $3.3 million in severance costs associated with staff reductions. Staff on a full-time equivalent (FTE) basis averaged 6,548 compared with 6,420 in 1994 and 6,318 in 1993. The growth in average staff during 1995 is a result of acquisitions and staff additions in the last half of 1994 to support Northern Trust's growing global custody, retirement services and mutual fund activities. These additions were partially offset by staff reductions in other areas of Northern Trust. As of December 31, 1995 staff levels on a FTE basis totaled 6,531 compared to 6,608 at the end of last year. Adjusted for 179 posts added through acquisitions, staff levels declined by approximately 4% during the year. Employee benefit costs for 1995 totaled $81.5 million, up $6.7 million or 9% from $74.8 million in 1994 which was up 10% from $68.1 million in 1993. The majority of the 1995 increase in benefit costs was attributable to higher medical expenses, retirement benefit expenses and payroll taxes. In conjunction with Northern Trust's commitment to control expense growth, a complete review of all the employee benefit plans was conducted at the end of 1995. As a result of this review, changes, effective January 1, 1996, were made to the pension, medical and Thrift Incentive plans. The Corporation will also, subject to an Internal Revenue Service ruling and trustee approval, amend the Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Although difficult to predict, with these changes 1996 benefit expenses are expected to decline by approximately 5% from the 1995 level. OCCUPANCY EXPENSE. Net occupancy expense totaled $60.2 million, up 5% or $2.8 million from $57.4 million in 1994, which was up 4% from $55.3 million in 1993. The principal components of the 1995 increase were higher building and leasehold improvement amortization expenses, rental and operating costs primarily associated with business expansion in Florida, Texas and Illinois. 18 Northern Trust Corporation EQUIPMENT EXPENSE. Equipment expense, which includes depreciation, rental, and maintenance costs, totaled $48.6 million in 1995, down 14% or $7.8 million from $56.4 million in 1994, which was 37% higher than the $41.1 million in 1993. Included in the 1994 expense is $11.2 million of nonrecurring expenses resulting from the trade-in and the sale and leaseback of mainframe computer equipment. Excluding these items, the expense levels in each of the three years primarily reflect planned increases in equipment and computer depreciation and related costs to support trust and banking business expansion. OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES. Other operating expenses for 1995 totaled $181.3 million, down 7% from $195.3 million in 1994, which was up 15% from $170.3 million in 1993. Included in the 1995 results are a $4.1 million pension settlement charge and a $.7 million expense for compensation payments pursuant to a consent decree resolving the investigation by the Department of Justice into the fair lending practices of Northern Trust's Illinois banking subsidiaries. Other operating expenses in 1994 included a $9.6 million pension settlement charge, a $3.5 million expense relating to an agreement between the Corporation and The Benchmark Funds, and a $2.4 million write-down of older trust-related software. Excluding all of these items for both years, other operating expenses decreased slightly from last year. Increases in computer software amortization, transaction-based depository fees, technical and consulting services, charitable contributions and postage were offset by lower levels of FDIC deposit insurance premiums, lower costs associated with operating other real estate owned assets, and a decline in costs incurred from processing errors. Investments in technology are designed to support and enhance the transaction processing and securities handling capability of the trust and banking businesses. Higher levels of capital expenditures for systems technology will result in increasingly greater amounts of expense from future depreciation of hardware and amortization of software. The depreciation and software amortization are charged to equipment and other operating expenses, respectively. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes was $100.5 million in 1995 compared with $79.3 million in 1994 and $66.1 million in 1993. The effective tax rate was 31% for 1995 compared with 30% for 1994 and 28% for 1993. The higher tax provision in 1995 resulted from the growth in earnings for federal income tax purposes while federally tax-exempt income declined slightly. Partially offsetting this increase was a decline in the state provision for income taxes resulting from a higher level of state tax-exempt income. SUBSEQUENT IMPLEMENTATION OF STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. Two recently issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) were implemented as of January 1, 1996. The new statements are as follows: SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," establishes accounting standards for the impairment of such assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used and for similar assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. This statement requires that those assets held and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable; and, that those to be disposed of be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, with certain exceptions. No adjustments to the carrying value of long-lived assets were required as a result of adopting this statement. SFAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," applies to entities that either purchase mortgage servicing rights or originate mortgage loans and subsequently sell the mortgage loans with servicing rights retained. In either case, the servicing rights must be capitalized as a separate asset and must be evaluated for impairment based on their fair value. Since Northern Trust's held for sale mortgage portfolio totaled $7.6 million as of January 1, 1996, the impact of adopting this statement was immaterial. Under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the accounting method for stock-based compensation, in particular for stock options, differs from APB Opinion No. 25, under which most of the accounting requirements for stock-based compensation were previously contained. The measurement and recognition provisions of the statement are elective. An entity that continues to apply Opinion No. 25 will be required to provide pro forma net income and earnings per share, as if the accounting method in SFAS No. 123 had been used for stock-based compensation costs. Northern Trust is currently in the process of developing a stock option model to be used in calculating the pro forma information required by SFAS No. 123. In 1996 Northern Trust will continue to account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Opinion No. 25 and will provide the pro forma information required by SFAS No. 123 for the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 in the 1996 Annual Report. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES A committee of Northern Trust's senior officers reviews and approves proposed capital expenditures which exceed $500,000. This process assures that the major projects to Northern Trust Corporation 19 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) which Northern Trust commits its resources produce benefits compatible with corporate strategic goals. During 1995, Northern Trust continued to improve its hardware and software capabilities, especially relating to trust activities. Such improvements help assure that Northern Trust offers state-of-the-art technology which enables clients to obtain the highest level of quality service within a competitive cost structure, a characteristic which helps distinguish Northern Trust from its competitors. In this regard, through the efforts of internal staff and outside consultants, Northern Trust completed installation of several significant phases of its new trust management system, including key improvements in securities processing operations and the creation of new client statements. The unamortized, capitalized cost of this project at December 31, 1995 was $93 million. In addition, major systems development efforts in 1995 focused on Passport and retirement services products. Passport is Northern Trust's next generation of on-line desktop delivery services first offered to clients in 1995. Retirement services bring together a comprehensive array of Master Trust, participant recordkeeping, retirement plan design and actuarial services. Northern Trust's 1996 technology initiatives will include installation of the final phases of the trust management system, and the continued development of Passport and retirement services products. Capital expenditures in 1995 also included the leasehold improvements and furnishings associated with the opening of new offices in Florida and the construction costs for the Chicago South Financial Center and the new Winnetka, Illinois office, both scheduled to open by mid-year 1996, as well as expansion in several existing offices. Capital expenditures for 1995 totaled $86 million of which $10 million was for building and leasehold improvements, $3 million for furnishings, $26 million for hardware and machinery and $47 million for software. During 1996, in addition to its technology initiatives, Northern Trust will continue to invest in the expansion of the five-state network of Personal Financial Services offices. ASSET QUALITY AND CREDIT RISK SECURITIES. A high quality securities portfolio is maintained with 87% of the total portfolio comprised of U.S. Treasury or federal agency securities. The remainder of the portfolio is comprised of obligations of states and political subdivisions, preferred stock and other securities. At December 31, 1995, 73% of these securities were rated triple-A or double-A, 24% were rated single-A and 3% were below A or not rated by Standard and Poor's and/or Moody's Investors Service. Other securities consist primarily of privately issued collateralized mortgage obligations, backed by federal agency securities or mortgage loans, and asset-backed securities, collateralized by automobile loans and credit card receivables. Northern Trust is an active participant in the repurchase agreement market. This market provides a relatively low cost alternative for short-term funding. Securities sold under repurchase agreements are held by the counterparty until the repurchase transaction matures. Increases in the fair value of these securities in excess of the repurchase liability could subject Northern Trust to credit risk in the event of default by the counterparty. To minimize this risk, collateral values are continuously monitored and Northern Trust sets limits on exposure with counterparties and regularly assesses their financial condition. LOANS AND OTHER EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT. A certain degree of credit risk is inherent in Northern Trust's various lending activities. Credit risk is managed through the Credit Policy function, which is designed to ensure adherence to a high level of credit standards. Credit Policy provides a system of checks and balances for Northern Trust's diverse credit-related activities by establishing and monitoring all credit-related policies and practices throughout Northern Trust and ensuring their uniform application. These activities are designed to ensure that credit exposure is diversified on an industry and client basis, thus lessening overall credit risk. These credit management activities also apply to Northern Trust's use of derivative financial instruments, including foreign exchange contracts and interest risk management instruments. A further way in which credit risk is managed is by requiring collateral. Management's assessment of the borrower's creditworthiness determines whether collateral is obtained. The amount and type of collateral held varies but may include deposits held in financial institutions, U.S. Treasury securities, other marketable securities, income-producing commercial properties, accounts receivable, property, plant and equipment, and inventory. Collateral values are monitored on a regular basis to ensure that they are maintained at an appropriate level. The largest component of credit risk relates to the loan portfolio. Although the credit exposure is well-diversified, there are certain significant groups which meet the accounting definition under SFAS No. 105 of credit risk concentrations. According to this statement, group concentrations of credit risk exist if a number of borrowers or other counterparties are engaged in similar activities and have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. The fact that an extension of credit falls into one of these groups does not indicate that the credit has a higher than normal degree of credit risk. These groups are: middle market companies and 20 Northern Trust Corporation small businesses, broker-dealers of securities, banks and bank holding companies, commercial real estate, and residential real estate. MIDDLE MARKET COMPANIES AND SMALL BUSINESSES. Credit exposure to middle market companies and small businesses is primarily in the form of commercial loans. These loans are to a diversified group of borrowers that are predominantly in the manufacturing, wholesaling, distribution and services industries, with total sales of less than $500 million. The largest component of this group of borrowers is located in the greater Chicago area. Middle market and small businesses have been an important focus of business development, and it is part of the strategic plan to continue to selectively grow the portfolio with such entities. The credit risk associated with middle market and small business lending is principally influenced by general economic conditions and the resulting impact on the borrower's operations. Middle market and small business loans totaled approximately $1.2 billion at December 31, 1995 and $945.5 million at December 31, 1994. Nonperforming middle market loans totaled $1.3 million and $7.8 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Credit exposure related to customer acceptance liabilities with middle market companies and small businesses totaled $24.4 million and $20.3 million as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Off-balance sheet items related to these entities in the form of legally binding commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit totaled $1.2 billion, $405.6 million, and $12.5 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1995, and $917.8 million, $378.7 million, and $17.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1994. BROKER-DEALERS OF SECURITIES. Broker loans consist primarily of overnight funds loaned to broker-dealers in the securities industry on both a secured and an unsecured basis. Broker loans averaged $269.0 million during 1995 and $355.7 million during 1994, and totaled $304.0 million at December 31, 1995 and $274.6 million at December 31, 1994. Securities purchased under agreements to resell with broker-dealers at year-end totaled $30.0 million at December 31, 1995 compared with zero at December 31, 1994. Standby letters of credit issued on behalf of broker-dealers and legally binding commitments to extend credit totaled $148.4 million and $185.5 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1995, and $51.2 million and $161.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1994. Northern Trust may also have a limited amount of potential credit exposure to brokers and dealers in connection with securities lending activities. BANKS AND BANK HOLDING COMPANIES. The following table shows the credit exposure to banks and bank holding companies at December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994. Exposure to such entities is well-diversified geographically. A significant portion of credit exposure to banks is in the form of liquid, short-term money market assets. To minimize the credit risk related to these transactions, the Credit Policy Committee sets limits on the amount of credit exposure with counterparties and regularly assesses their financial condition. In connection with securities purchased under agreements to resell, the value of collateral held is continually monitored. Most of the domestic commercial loans shown in the following table consisted of loans to U.S. bank holding companies, primarily in the seventh Federal Reserve District, for their acquisition purposes. Such lending activity is limited to entities which have a substantial business relationship with Northern Trust. The international loan exposure represents transactions with major international banks arising from trade finance and dollar clearing activities. CREDIT EXPOSURE TO BANKS AND BANK HOLDING COMPANIES

Northern Trust Corporation 21 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE. In managing its credit exposure, management has defined a commercial real estate loan as one where: (1) the borrower's principal business activity is the acquisition of or the development of real estate for commercial purposes; (2) the principal collateral is real estate held for commercial purposes and loan repayment is expected to flow from the operation of the property; or (3) the loan repayment is expected to flow from the sale or refinance of real estate as a normal and ongoing part of the business. Unsecured lines of credit to firms or individuals engaged in commercial real estate endeavors are included without regard to the use of loan proceeds. The commercial real estate portfolio consists of interim loans and commercial mortgages. The interim loans are composed primarily of loans to developers that are highly experienced and well-known to Northern Trust. Short-term interim loans provide financing for the initial phases of the acquisition or development of commercial real estate, with the intent that the borrower will refinance the loan through another financial institution or sell the project upon its completion. The interim loans included in the portfolio are primarily in the Chicago market in which Northern Trust has a strong presence and a thorough knowledge of the local economy. Commercial mortgage financing is also provided for the acquisition of income producing properties. Cash flows from the properties generally are sufficient to amortize the loan. These loans average less than $500,000 each and are primarily located in market areas served by the subsidiary banks in suburban Chicago and Florida. Commercial real estate loans outstanding at December 31, 1995, are detailed in the next table. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE LOANS

In comparison, commercial real estate loans at December 31, 1994 totaled $494.1 million. Nonperforming commercial real estate loans totaled $9.0 million in 1995 and $9.1 million in 1994. At December 31, 1995 commercial real estate loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest totaled $12.1 million. Not included in the table above was OREO which totaled $1.8 million and $2.2 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. At December 31, 1995, off-balance sheet credit exposure to commercial real estate developers in the form of legally binding commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit totaled $21.7 million and $16.5 million, respectively. At December 31, 1994, legally binding commitments were $25.5 million and standby letters of credit were $47.2 million. RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE. Residential real estate loans totaled $3.9 billion or 41% of total domestic loans at December 31, 1995, compared with $3.3 billion or 40% at December 31, 1994. Residential real estate loans consist of conventional home mortgages, which generally require a loan to collateral value of 75% to 80%, and equity credit lines, which generally limit the loan to collateral value to no more than 70% to 75%. Of the total $3.9 billion in residential real estate loans, $2.4 billion were in the greater Chicago area with the remainder distributed throughout the other geographic regions served by Northern Trust. Legally binding commitments to extend credit, which are primarily equity credit lines, totaled $372.2 million and $377.0 million as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. FOREIGN OUTSTANDINGS. In recent years international banking activities have been focused on import and export financing for U.S. based clients and on correspondent banking. Northern Trust has extensive treasury activities involving short-term, credit-related business with foreign financial institutions. Interbank time deposits with foreign banks represent the largest category of foreign outstandings. The Chicago head office and the London Branch actively participate in the interbank market with U.S. and foreign banks. As used in this discussion, foreign outstandings are cross-border outstandings as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. They consist of loans, acceptances, interest-bearing deposits with financial institutions, accrued interest and other monetary assets. Not included are letters of credit, loan commitments, and foreign office local currency claims on residents funded by local currency liabilities. Foreign outstandings related to a specific country are net of guarantees given by third parties resident outside the country and the value of tangible, liquid collateral held outside the country. However, transactions with branches of foreign banks and corporations are included in these outstandings and are classified according to the country location of the foreign entities' head office. Risk related to foreign outstandings is continually monitored and internal limits are imposed on foreign exposure. The following table provides information on foreign outstandings by country that exceed 1.00% of Northern Trust's consolidated assets. 22 Northern Trust Corporation FOREIGN OUTSTANDINGS

There were no aggregate foreign outstandings by country falling between 0.75% and 1.00% of total assets at December 31, 1995. This compares with $154 million to Germany in 1994 and $153 million to Canada in 1993. NONPERFORMING ASSETS AND 90 DAY PAST DUE LOANS. Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and OREO. OREO is comprised of commercial and residential properties acquired in partial or total satisfaction of problem loans. Past due loans are loans that are delinquent 90 days or more and still accruing interest. The balance in this category at any reporting period can fluctuate widely based on the timing of cash collections, renegotiations and renewals. Maintaining a low level of nonperforming assets is important to the ongoing success of a financial institution. Northern Trust's comprehensive credit review and approval process is critical to the ability to minimize nonperforming assets on a long-term basis. In addition to the negative impact on both net interest income and credit losses, nonperforming assets also increase operating costs due to the expense associated with collection efforts. The table below presents the nonperforming assets and past due loans for the current year and the prior years. Of the total loan portfolio of $9.9 billion at December 31, 1995, $31.9 million or .32% was nonperforming, an increase of $4.1 million from year-end 1994. Nonperforming loans at December 31, 1995 consisted principally of commercial loans, including $9.0 million of commercial real estate loans and $1.3 million to middle market and small business companies. The net increase of $3.7 million in nonperforming assets resulted from additions during 1995 of $31.1 million in new nonaccrual loans partially offset by total gross charge-offs of $10.2 million, payments and loan sales of $19.5 million, property sales with a basis of $2.9 million and $.4 million in write-downs and realized losses on OREO assets. While the estimated carrying value of the OREO portfolio is believed to be realizable, it is not possible to predict whether such properties could continue to experience further declines in value. SFAS Nos. 114 and 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," were adopted effective January 1, 1995. These new statements require that an impaired loan that is within the scope of this statement be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or at the loan's observable market price or, if the loan is collateral dependent, based on the fair value of the collateral. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. As of December 31, 1995, impaired loans, which also have been classified as nonperforming, totaled $27.6 million, with $1.0 million of the reserve for credit losses allocated to these loans. RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES. In evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses, management relies predominantly on a disciplined credit review and approval process which is applicable to the full range of the credit exposures. The review process, directed by Credit Policy, is intended to identify as early as possible clients who might be facing financial difficulties. Once identified, the extent of the client's financial difficulty is carefully monitored by Credit Policy, which recommends to management the portion of any credits that need a specific reserve allocation or should be charged-off. Other factors considered by management in evaluating the adequacy of the reserve include: the relative size of the subsidiary banks' single loan lending limits; loan NONPERFORMING ASSETS AND 90 DAY PAST DUE LOANS

Northern Trust Corporation 23 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) volume; historical net loan loss experience; the level and composition of nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans; other extensions of credit; the condition of industries and geographic areas experiencing or expected to experience particular economic adversities; international developments; current and anticipated economic conditions; credit evaluations; and the liquidity and volatility of the markets. From time to time specific amounts of the reserve are designated for certain loans in connection with management's analysis of the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses, as well as its evaluation of impaired loans. While the largest portion of this reserve is typically intended to cover loan and lease losses, it is considered a general reserve that is available for all credit-related purposes. The reserve balance is not a precise amount, but is derived from judgments based on the above factors. It represents management's best estimate of the reserve for credit losses necessary to adequately cover probable losses from current credit exposures. The provision for credit losses is the charge against current earnings that is determined by management as the amount needed to maintain an adequate reserve. ANALYSIS OF RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The overall credit quality of the domestic portfolio has remained good as evidenced by the relatively low level of nonperforming loans and net charge- offs. Although the U.S. economy is still expanding, there continue to be uncertainties in several industries. In addition, management's assessment of the financial condition of specific clients facing financial difficulties, and portfolio growth relating to low-risk residential lending and bank acquisitions, were other factors impacting management's analysis of the adequacy of the reserve. The combination of these factors resulted in a reserve for credit losses of $147.1 million at December 31, 1995, compared with $144.8 million last year. The decline in the year-end reserve for credit losses as a percentage of outstanding loans and leases from 1.69% to 1.49% at year-end 1995 is primarily attributable to loan growth in low-risk residential lending and overnight trust advances. The table above summarizes the changes in the reserve for credit losses for the current year and the prior years. 24 Northern Trust Corporation FINANCIAL CONDITION Average earning assets in 1995 increased 9% to $17.2 billion. Approximately 15% of the growth in earning assets resulted from the Beach Bank and Tanglewood Bank acquisitions. The growth, including acquisitions, was concentrated primarily in short-term U.S. federal agency securities, residential mortgages and commercial and industrial loans. A high quality and liquid balance sheet is maintained with securities and money market assets averaging $8.1 billion or 47% of total earning assets. The management strategy for investment securities is to maintain a very high quality portfolio with generally short-term maturities. To maximize after-tax income, investments in tax-exempt municipal securities are utilized but with somewhat longer maturities. The average balance of the securities portfolio, which includes securities held to maturity and available for sale, increased 24% from last year to $6.2 billion. U.S. Government securities averaged $1.2 billion in 1995, down 31% from 1994 levels. U.S. Government securities had an average maturity of eleven months at December 31, 1995, compared with ten months at the prior year-end. Average municipal securities declined $30 million to $435 million and provided a fully taxable equivalent yield of 10.75%. The average maturity of municipal securities was 78 months, up from 64 months a year ago. Federal agency securities averaged $4.1 billion in 1995, up $1.8 billion from 1994 and had an average maturity at December 31, 1995 and 1994 of nine months and six months, respectively. Other securities, consisting primarily of preferred stock, privately issued collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities, averaged $353 million, $15 million lower than last year. Included in other securities were $62 million of triple-A rated collateralized mortgage obligations, $16 million of which were collateralized by federal agency securities. Other asset-backed securities were $26 million versus $65 million last year; these securities had an average maturity of three months, versus eleven months a year ago. Approximately $1.3 billion of federal agency, asset-backed and other securities have variable rates that are reset at least every six months to reflect the level of short- term interest rates. At year-end 1995, the fair value of the securities portfolio of $5.8 billion exceeded the book value of these securities by $27.5 million. Loans averaged $9.1 billion in 1995 and increased 10% from the prior year. Average domestic loans increased 12% to $8.8 billion for the year while the average international portfolio decreased to $344 million from $446 million in 1994. The increase in the average domestic loan portfolio reflects substantial growth in residential mortgages which, net of $15.2 million in loan sales, increased nearly $446 million on average to total $3.9 billion at year-end. Commercial and industrial loans also contributed to the growth in the domestic portfolio, increasing 14% on average to total $3.2 billion at year-end. During the year commercial real estate loans increased slightly due primarily to acquisitions, and at December 31, 1995, totaled $513 million or 5% of domestic loans. The decrease in the international portfolio is partially attributable to lower levels of trust client overnight advances. Money market assets averaged $1.9 billion, down 23% or $555 million from last year. Total interest-related funds averaged $14.5 billion in 1995, up $1.2 billion or 9% from 1994. As a result of marketing campaigns, savings certificates of deposit increased $771 million or 63% to $2.0 billion, partially offset by a $73 million decline in average savings and money market deposits. Total federal funds purchased increased $213 million or 16% to $1.6 billion. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased $325 million on average to $1.8 billion. Foreign office time deposits increased $209 million or 6%, resulting primarily from greater global custody activity. Deposits related to trust activities in the domestic banking subsidiaries, coupled with growth of the global custody business, had a significant impact on the balance sheet as these deposits in 1995 averaged $4.6 billion or 37% of total deposits. Senior notes averaged $394 million, down $388 million or 50% from last year. During September 1995, The Northern Trust Company issued $100 million of 6.70% Subordinated Notes due 2005. The notes were issued under the terms of a September 6, 1995 Offering Circular allowing The Northern Trust Company to offer from time to time up to $300 million aggregate principal amount of its subordinated bank notes with maturities ranging from 5 years to 15 years and up to $1.7 billion aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding of its senior bank notes (less certain senior bank notes issued prior to April 1993 and still outstanding), with maturities ranging from 30 days to 15 years. The senior notes are issued periodically and provide an additional funding source for the Bank.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments. These disclosures are presented in Note 17 on page 48. The fair value disclosures should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of Northern Trust since the disclosures, in accordance with SFAS No. 107, exclude the values of nonfinancial assets and liabilities, as well as a wide range of franchise, relationship, and intangible values, which are integral to a full assessment of Northern Trust's financial position. In addition, it is important to realize that SFAS No. 107 requires the fair value of the demand, savings and money market deposits to be recorded at their book value. Due to the interest rate characteristics of these accounts--zero rate of interest or a relatively low interest rate--the true values of these accounts to Northern Trust change in response to changes in the level of interest rates and are not accurately reflected in the fair value disclosures. Considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data when computing estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented in Note 17 are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could have been realized in a market exchange. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methods may have a material effect on the computation of estimated fair values. Therefore, comparisons between Northern Trust's disclosure and those of other banks may not be meaningful. ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT The policies and guidelines for the management of Northern Trust's balance sheet assets and liabilities are established by the Corporate Asset and Liability Policy Committee (ALCO). ALCO monitors and establishes limits on the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates caused by on- and-off balance sheet positions. The goal of the ALCO process is to manage the balance sheet to provide the maximum level of net interest income while maintaining a high quality balance sheet and acceptable levels of interest rate sensitivity and liquidity risk. 26 Northern Trust Corporation INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT. Sensitivity of net interest income to interest rate changes arises when yields on assets change in a different time period or in a different proportion from that of interest costs on liabilities. To mitigate this interest rate risk, the structure of the balance sheet is managed so that movements of interest rates on assets and liabilities (adjusted for off-balance sheet hedges) are highly correlated and produce a reasonable level of net interest income even in periods of volatile interest rates. In the management of interest rate sensitivity, Northern Trust utilizes the following measurement techniques: gap reporting, model simulation, and duration analysis. These three techniques are complementary and are used in concert to provide a more complete picture of interest rate risk. The calculation of the interest sensitivity gap is shown in the following table, which measures the timing mismatch between assets and liabilities. This interest sensitivity gap is determined by subtracting the amount of liabilities from the volume of assets that reprice in a particular time interval. A liability sensitive position results when more liabilities than assets reprice or mature within a given period. Under this scenario, as interest rates decline, increased net interest revenue will be generated. Conversely, an asset sensitive position results when more assets than liabilities reprice within a given period; in this instance, net interest revenue would benefit from an increasing interest rate environment. The economic impact of creating a liability or asset sensitive position depends on the magnitude of actual changes in interest rates relative to the current expectations of market participants.

- -Assets and liabilities whose rates are variable are reported based on their repricing dates. Those with fixed rates are reported based on their scheduled contractual maturity dates, except for certain investment securities and loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties that are based on anticipated prepayments. - -The interest rate sensitivity assumptions presented for demand deposits, noninterest-bearing time deposits, savings accounts and NOW accounts are based on historical and current experiences regarding product portfolio retention and interest rate repricing behavior. The portion of these deposits which are considered long-term and stable have been classified in the over 5 years category; the remainder are classified in the 1-3 months category. Model simulation is another important tool used to measure the sensitivity of net interest income to interest rate changes. Using computer modeling techniques, Northern Trust is able to measure the potential impact on net interest income, assuming the continuation of current balance sheet trends, different patterns of rate movements, and specific changes in the relationships between various instruments on and off the balance sheet. Northern Trust uses model simulation to measure its net interest income sensitivity relative to management's most likely interest rate scenario. At December 31, 1995, this scenario assumed a gradual decrease in interest rates during 1996. The interest sensitivity is then tested by running alternative scenarios above and below the most likely interest rate outcome. In 1995, this sensitivity Northern Trust Corporation 27 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) calculation was always less than 2.5% of the annual net interest income, using alternative scenarios based on a one percentage point deviation from the rates assumed over a one year horizon. The simulations do not anticipate management's actions to moderate the negative consequences of interest rate deviations. Therefore, the simulations serve as conservative estimates of interest rate risk. The third technique that is used to measure interest rate sensitivity is duration analysis. Duration analysis is a form of average life calculation used to estimate the market risk inherent in financial instruments. Market risk is the risk that the value of on- and off-balance sheet positions will be adversely affected by rate movements. Northern Trust strives to limit aggregate market risk to an acceptable level in the context of both risk-return and cost- benefit trade-offs. A variety of actions are used to implement interest risk management strategies, including: . purchases of securities; . sales of securities that are classified as Available for Sale; . issuance of senior notes; . placing and taking Eurodollar time deposits; and . hedging with various types of derivative financial instruments. Northern Trust strives to use the most effective instrument for implementing its interest risk management strategies, considering the costs, liquidity and capital requirements of the various alternatives. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS USED FOR ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT. A derivative financial instrument is a contract or agreement whose value is linked to or derived from changes in the value of an underlying asset or underlying reference rate or index. Northern Trust utilizes various types of derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swaps, as tools for managing interest rate and option risk. The following table summarizes the expected maturities and weighted average interest rates to be paid and received on the asset/liability management swap portfolio at December 31, 1995. A key assumption in the preparation of the table is that floating rates remain constant at December 31, 1995 levels. Some of the principal uses of derivative financial instruments, together with the notional amounts outstanding, are described as follows: CONVERT YIELDS ON GOVERNMENT AND AGENCY SECURITIES TO AN EFFECTIVE LIBOR RATE. At December 31, 1995, interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $1.35 billion and purchased interest rate protection contracts with a notional amount of $25 million were used to convert fixed and floating rate interest payments on Government and agency securities (classified as Available for Sale) to floating rate payments indexed to London Interbank Offered Rates (LIBOR). Swaps with a notional amount of $930 million were combined with fixed rate securities, $85 million were combined with floating rate securities indexed to Treasury Bill rates, and $336 million were combined with structured notes, whose non-standard features were hedged. The swaps were executed simultaneously with the purchase of the notes. The securities were converted to an effective LIBOR rate to match LIBOR-based funding costs. REDUCE INTEREST RATE RISK FROM FIXED RATE ASSETS FUNDED WITH VARIABLE RATE LIABILITIES. Northern Trust paid a fixed rate and received a floating rate on interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $949 million at December 31, 1995 to hedge the interest rate risk from fixed rate assets. For accounting purposes these swaps were designated to either convert the fixed rate on the asset to an effective floating rate or to convert floating rate funding to a fixed rate. SWAPS COMBINED WITH NOTE ISSUANCE TO OBTAIN FAVORABLE FUNDING COSTS. Interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $300 million at December 31, 1995 were used in REMAINING MATURITY OF ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT INTEREST RATE SWAPS

28 Northern Trust Corporation conjunction with the issuance of senior notes and subordinated notes to obtain desired funding characteristics. The use of swaps in combination with notes permitted Northern Trust to issue notes with rate and maturity features that were most desired by investors while using swaps to convert the rate characteristics to meet its needs. HEDGING FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK. Forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign currency futures contracts were used to reduce exposure to fluctuations in the dollar value of capital investments in foreign subsidiaries and from foreign currency obligations. The notional amounts of these contracts at year-end 1995 were $30.4 million of forward foreign exchange contracts and $1.8 million of short sales of foreign currency futures contracts. HEDGING MORTGAGES HELD FOR SALE. Northern Trust hedged the market risk of its portfolio of fixed rate commitments and mortgages held for sale with a combination of derivative financial instruments. At December 31, 1995 the portfolio was hedged with $11.1 million of forward sales of mortgage-backed securities, $.7 million of short sales of Treasury Note futures, and $2.0 million of purchases of put options on Treasury Note futures. COLLATERALIZED MORTGAGE OBLIGATIONS. Northern Trust invests in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), which are structured obligations that are derived from a pool of mortgage loans or agency mortgage-backed securities. CMOs in general have widely varying degrees of risk, which derives from the prepayment risk on the underlying mortgage loans, but Northern Trust invests only in CMOs that have lesser degrees of prepayment risk. CMOs are classified as available for sale securities, and are used as part of normal securities portfolio activities. Investments in LIBOR-indexed floating rate CMOs had an amortized cost of $370.6 million and a fair value of $371.6 million as of December 31, 1995, compared with an amortized cost of $439.2 million and a fair value of $436.4 million as of December 31, 1994. The average life of these CMOs was 23 months based on an average of dealer estimates of prepayment rates. Floating rate CMOs are purchased to provide an attractive spread over short-term funding costs. The primary risk with floating rate CMOs comes from caps on the floating rate. Northern Trust's CMOs have rate caps which range from 9% to 13%, with a weighted average of approximately 10%. These caps will affect the interest margin only if short-term LIBOR rates rise by more than 350 basis points above the year-end 1995 levels. Early payments of principal have little effect on the earnings risk of floating rate CMOs, but slower than expected prepayment rates would extend the exposure to the interest rate caps. A 300 basis point rise in mortgage rates beyond those prevailing on December 31, 1995 would cause an estimated increase in the average life of Northern Trust's floating rate CMOs from 23 months to 41 months. As of December 31, 1995 Northern Trust owned fixed rate CMOs with an amortized cost of $60.9 million and a fair value of $60.1 million, compared with an amortized cost of $68.7 million and a fair value of $65.6 million as of December 31, 1994. The average life of the fixed rate CMOs was estimated to be 18 months as of December 31, 1995. A 300 basis point rise in rates is estimated to cause the average life of the fixed rate CMOs to extend to approximately 22 months. LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT. The objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure that Northern Trust can meet its cash flow requirements and to capitalize on business opportunities on a timely and cost-effective basis. Management monitors the liquidity position on a daily basis to ensure that funds are available at a minimum cost to meet loan and deposit cash flows. The liquidity profile is also structured to ensure that the capital needs of the Corporation and its banking subsidiaries are met. Management maintains a detailed liquidity contingency plan designed to adequately respond to dramatic changes in market conditions. Liquidity is secured by managing the mix of items on the balance sheet and expanding potential sources of liquidity. The balance sheet sources of liquidity include the short-term money market portfolio, unpledged available for sale securities, maturing loans, and the ability to securitize a portion of the loan portfolio. Further, liquidity arises from the diverse funding base and the fact that a significant portion of funding comes from clients that have other relationships with Northern Trust. A significant source of liquidity is the ability to draw funding from both domestic and international markets. The Bank's senior long-term debt is rated AA- by Standard & Poor's, Aa3 by Moody's Investors Service, and AA+ by Thomson BankWatch. These ratings put The Northern Trust Company in the top tier of United States banks. Northern Trust maintains a liquid balance sheet with loans representing 50% of total assets. Further, at December 31, 1995, it had a significant liquidity reserve on its balance sheet in the form of cash and due from banks, securities available for sale, and money market assets, which in aggregate totaled $8.2 billion or 41% of total assets. The Corporation's uses of cash consist mainly of dividend payments to the Corporation's common and preferred stockholders, the payment of principal and interest to note holders, and purchases of its common stock. These requirements are met largely by dividend payments from its subsidiaries, and by interest and dividends earned on investment securities and money market assets. Bank subsidiaries have the ability to pay dividends during 1996 Northern Trust Corporation 29 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) equal to their 1996 eligible net profits plus $181 million. Bank subsidiary dividends are subject to certain restrictions that are explained in Note 12 on page 46. In September 1995, the Bank used a portion of the proceeds of a $100 million subordinated debt issue to repay $25 million of debt to the Corporation and intends to repay the remaining $50 million of debt to the Corporation in 1996. The Corporation's liquidity, defined as the amount of marketable assets in excess of commercial paper, was strong at $117 million at year-end 1995. The cash flows of the Corporation are shown in Note 24 on page 55. The Corporation also has a $50 million back-up line of credit for its commercial paper issuance. The Corporation's strong credit ratings allow it to access credit markets on favorable terms. CAPITAL One of management's primary objectives is to maintain a strong capital position to merit the confidence of clients, the investing public, bank regulators and stockholders. A strong capital position should help Northern Trust withstand unforeseen adverse developments and take advantage of profitable investment opportunities when they arise. In 1995, common equity increased 15% or $172 million reaching a record $1.3 billion at year end, while total risk-adjusted assets rose 11%. Total equity as of December 31, 1995 was $1.5 billion including $50 million of convertible preferred stock and $120 million of auction rate preferred stock. In January 1996, the Corporation announced the call for redemption of its $50 million Series E convertible preferred stock. Virtually all of the holders elected to convert rather than redeem their preferred stock, and in January the Corporation issued 1,198,372 shares of common stock in connection with the conversion. The shares issued upon conversion have been reflected in the Corporation's fully diluted shares, so that conversion has no impact on fully diluted net income per common share. In February 1994, the Board of Directors increased the Corporation's common stock buyback authorization by approximately 1.3 million shares, thus allowing the purchase after that date of up to an aggregate of 4 million shares of the Corporation's common stock. During 1995 the Corporation purchased 1,486,159 of its own shares as part of the buyback program, some of which were reissued in connection with the RCB acquisition and the exercise of stock options. At December 31, 1995, 2,269,756 additional shares may be purchased pursuant to this program. The Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend by 19.2% to $.31 per common share in November 1995. Over the last five years the common dividend has increased 121%. At December 31, 1995, tier 1 capital was 8.8% and total capital was 12.5% of risk-adjusted assets. These risk-based capital ratios are well above the minimum requirements of 4.0% for tier 1 and 8.0% for total risk-based capital ratios. Northern Trust's leverage ratio (tier 1 capital to fourth quarter average assets) of 6.2% is also well above the regulatory requirement of 3.0%. In addition, each of the subsidiary banks had a ratio above 9.0% for tier 1 capital, 10.0% for total risk-based capital, and 5.6% for the leverage ratio. The average rate declared on the $120 million of auction rate preferred stock was 4.51% during 1995 versus 3.45% in 1994. CAPITAL ADEQUACY

The information, presented on an internal management reporting basis, is derived from internal accounting systems that support the strategic objectives and management structure. Consequently, the results are not necessarily comparable with similar information for other financial institutions. Management has developed accounting systems to allocate revenue and expenses related to each line of business, as well as certain corporate support services, worldwide operations and systems development expenses. The systems also incorporate processes for allocating assets, liabilities and the applicable interest income and expense. Equity is primarily allocated using the federal regulatory risk-based capital guidelines, coupled with management's judgment of the operational risks inherent in the business. Allocations of capital and certain corporate expenses may not be representative of the levels that would be required if the businesses were independent entities. CORPORATE AND INSTITUTIONAL SERVICES. Corporate and Institutional Services includes corporate trust, investment management and securities lending services, commercial banking activities of the Bank, treasury management services, foreign exchange activities, the London Branch and Northern Futures Corporation. PERSONAL FINANCIAL SERVICES. Personal Financial Services encompasses personal trust and investment management services, estate administration, personal banking and mortgage and other personal lending. This business unit also includes the commercial banking activities of the affiliate banks and the activities of Northern Trust Securities, Inc. CORPORATE AND OTHER. Corporate and Other includes the Bank's Treasury Department and other corporate items, including the impact of long-term debt, common and preferred equity, holding company investments, and corporate operating expenses. Noninterest income for 1994 included the net gain of $28.5 million from the sale of the interest in BSS. Noninterest expenses in 1995 include a $4.1 million pension settlement charge. 1994 noninterest expenses included non-recurring charges totaling $23.2 million. Of the $23.2 million, $13.6 million resulted from the trade-in and the sale and leaseback of mainframe computer equipment and the write-down of older trust-related software, and $9.6 million from a pension settlement charge. The following table reflects the earnings contribution of Northern Trust's lines of business for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 on the basis described above.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements on pages 36-55. Northern Trust Corporation 35 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES--The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and reporting practices prescribed for the banking industry. A description of the significant accounting policies follows. A. BASIS OF PRESENTATION. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Northern Trust Corporation (Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiary The Northern Trust Company (Bank) and their wholly owned subsidiaries. Throughout the notes, the term "Northern Trust" refers to Northern Trust Corporation and subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated statement of income includes results of acquired and pooled subsidiaries from the dates of acquisition. B. NATURE OF OPERATIONS. The Corporation is a bank holding company whose principal subsidiary is the Bank. The Corporation also owns banks in each of the states of Arizona, California, Florida and Texas, and various other nonbank subsidiaries, including a brokerage firm and a futures commission merchant. The other Chicago area banks were merged into the Bank on February 29, 1996. Northern Trust generates the majority of its revenues from its two primary business units, Corporate and Institutional Services (C&IS) and Personal Financial Services (PFS). The C&IS unit provides trust and custody-related services in the United States and foreign markets to corporations and institutions; a full range of commercial banking services offered to middle market companies in Chicago and the Midwest area, large domestic corporations, and financial institutions; treasury management services to meet the needs of major corporations and financial institutions; and foreign exchange services for global custody clients and Northern Trust's own account. The PFS unit provides personal trust, investment management, estate administration, personal banking and mortgage lending services. These services are delivered through the Bank and the network of subsidiaries in Florida, Arizona, California, Texas and suburban Chicago. Effective January 1, 1996, trust and banking services to middle market companies were transferred to the PFS unit. C. USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. D. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. Foreign currency asset and liability accounts of overseas branches are translated at current rates of exchange, except for buildings and equipment which are translated at rates in effect at the date of acquisition. Income and expense accounts are translated at month-end rates of exchange. Foreign exchange trading positions are valued daily at prevailing market rates. Gains and losses on trading positions and on positions entered into to hedge foreign denominated investments are recognized currently in other operating income. Unrealized gains on trading positions are reported as other assets and unrealized losses are reported as other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Gains and losses on foreign currency positions that were entered into to hedge specific, firm foreign currency obligations are deferred and recognized in income over the life of the underlying asset or liability or as the underlying expense or commitment is incurred. E. SECURITIES. Securities Held to Maturity consist of debt securities that management intends to, and Northern Trust has the ability to, hold until maturity. Such securities are reported at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount. Securities Available for Sale consist of debt and equity securities that are not intended to be held to maturity and are not held for trading. Securities available for sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses credited or charged, net of the tax effect, directly to stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses on securities available for sale are determined on a specific identification basis and are reported in the consolidated statement of income as investment security gains and losses. Securities Held for Trading are stated at fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities held for trading are reported in the consolidated statement of income under security commissions and trading income. F. INTEREST RISK MANAGEMENT INSTRUMENTS. Interest risk management instruments include interest rate swap contracts, futures contracts, options and similar contracts. Northern Trust is a party to various interest risk management instruments to meet the interest risk management needs of its clients, as part of its trading activity for its own account and as part of its asset/liability management activities. Unrealized gains and receivables on interest risk management instruments are reported as other assets and unrealized losses and payables are reported as other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Interest risk management instruments entered into to meet clients' interest risk management needs or for trading purposes are carried at fair value, with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in security commissions and trading income. Interest risk management instruments 36 Northern Trust Corporation are also entered into to hedge specifically identified existing assets and liabilities or anticipated transactions. If specific criteria are met, any gains or losses are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to interest income or expense over the life of the designated asset, liability, or anticipated transaction. Interest accruals on interest rate swaps that are used as hedges are recognized as adjustments to the interest income or expense of the hedged item over the life of the swap. G. LOANS AND LEASES. Loans that are held to maturity are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income. Residential real estate loans classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. Interest income on loans is recorded on an accrual basis until, in the opinion of management, there is a question as to the ability of the debtor to meet the terms of the contract, or when interest or principal is more than 90 days past due and the loan is not well-secured and in the process of collection. At the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, interest accrued but not collected is reversed against interest income of the current period. Loans are returned to accrual status when factors indicating doubtful collectibility no longer exist. Interest collected on nonaccrual loans is applied to principal unless, in the opinion of management, collectibility of principal is not in doubt. Premiums and discounts on loans are recognized as an adjustment of yield by the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan. Commitment fees that are considered to be an adjustment to the loan yield, loan origination fees and certain direct costs are deferred and accounted for as an adjustment of the yield. Unearned lease income from direct financing and leveraged leases is recognized using the interest method. This method provides a constant rate of return on the unrecovered investment over the life of the lease. H. RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES. The reserve for credit losses is established through provisions for credit losses charged to income. Loans and other extensions of credit deemed uncollectible are charged to the reserve. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the reserve. The loan portfolio and other extensions of credit are regularly reviewed to evaluate the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses. The impact of economic conditions on the creditworthiness of borrowers is given major consideration in determining the adequacy of the reserve. Credit loss experience, changes in the character and size of the loan portfolio, the estimated value of impaired loans compared to their recorded investment, and management's judgment are other factors used in assessing the overall adequacy of the reserve for credit losses and the resulting provision for credit losses. Actual losses may vary from current estimates and the amount of the provision may be either greater than or less than actual net charge-offs. While the largest portion of this reserve is intended to cover loan and lease losses, it is considered a general reserve available for all credit-related purposes. I. FEES ON STANDBY LETTERS OF CREDIT AND PARTICIPATIONS IN BANKERS ACCEPTANCES. Fees on standby letters of credit are generally recognized in other operating income on the straight-line method over the lives of the underlying agreements. Commissions on bankers acceptances are recognized in other operating income when received. J. BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT. Buildings and equipment owned are carried at original cost less accumulated depreciation. The charge for depreciation is computed primarily on the straight-line method based on the following range of lives: buildings--10 to 30 years; equipment--5 to 10 years; and leasehold improvements--1 to 15 years. Leased properties meeting certain criteria are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the lease period. K. OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED (OREO). OREO is comprised of commercial and residential real estate properties acquired in partial or total satisfaction of problem loans. OREO assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Losses identified at the time of acquisition of such properties are charged against the reserve for credit losses. Subsequent write-downs that may be required to the carrying value of these assets and losses realized from asset sales are charged to other operating expenses. Gains realized from the sale of OREO are included in other operating income. L. INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Goodwill, arising from the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets of acquired subsidiaries, is being amortized using the straight-line method over periods benefiting, ranging primarily from fifteen to twenty years. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of," establishes accounting standards for the impairment of such assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used and for similar assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. This statement requires that those assets held and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable; and that those to be disposed of be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, with certain exceptions. This statement, which is effective in 1996, was adopted January 1, 1996. No adjustments to the carrying value of Northern Trust Corporation 37 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) long-lived assets were required as a result of adopting this statement. Other purchased intangible assets arising from acquisitions are amortized using various methods over the estimated lives of the assets. Software is being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, ranging from three to seven years. M. TRUST ASSETS AND FEES. Assets held in fiduciary or agency capacities are not included in the consolidated balance sheet, since such items are not assets of Northern Trust. Income from trust activities is reported on an accrual basis. N. TRUST SECURITY SETTLEMENT RECEIVABLES. These receivables represent other items in the process of collection presented on behalf of trust clients. O. PENSION BENEFITS. A noncontributory qualified pension plan covers substantially all employees. The plan provides benefits for normal and early retirement, deferred benefits for vested employees and, under certain circumstances, survivor benefits in the event of death. Benefits are based on the employees' years of service and their five highest consecutive years of compensation. The proportion of average compensation paid as a pension benefit is determined by length of service. Contributions to the plan satisfy or exceed the minimum funding requirements of ERISA. Certain retiree death benefits are funded through the pension plan and the related cost is included as pension expense. Assets held by the plan consist primarily of listed stocks and corporate bonds. Northern Trust also maintains a noncontributory nonqualified pension plan for participants whose retirement benefit payments under the qualified plan are expected to exceed the limits imposed by federal tax law. Northern Trust has a nonqualified trust, referred to as a "Rabbi" trust, to fund benefits in excess of those permitted in certain of its qualified plans. The primary purpose of the trust is to fund nonqualified pension benefits. This arrangement offers certain officers a degree of assurance for payment of benefits in excess of those permitted in the related qualified plans. The assets remain subject to the claims of creditors and are not the property of the employees. Therefore, they are accounted for as corporate assets and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. P. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (ESOP). A leveraged ESOP in which substantially all employees of Northern Trust are eligible to participate was established in 1989. Dividends paid on unallocated shares held in the ESOP Trust are used for debt service on the ESOP notes. Compensation expense is accounted for based primarily on the amount of cash paid by Northern Trust to the ESOP for principal payments on the ESOP notes. Of the original 4.5 million shares in the ESOP Trust, 3.15 million have been allocated as of December 31, 1995. The ESOP shares not yet allocated to individual accounts are treated as deferred compensation and accounted for as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Under the original terms of the ESOP, the shares were to be allocated over ten years. In 1996, subject to Trustee approval and receipt of a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, the terms of the ESOP are expected to be amended. Under the revised terms, the original maturity of the ESOP-related debt will be effectively extended by an additional three years through a series of new loans and the remaining unallocated shares originally scheduled to be allocated over the next three years will be allocated over the six year period ending December 31, 2001. The Corporation also expects to make an additional contribution of cash or shares of common stock to the ESOP in 2002. Q. THRIFT INCENTIVE PLAN. The Corporation and its subsidiaries have a defined contribution Thrift Incentive Plan covering substantially all employees. The corporate contribution is contingent upon the level of employee contribution and meeting a predefined earnings target for the year. The estimated contribution to this plan is charged to pension and other employee benefit expenses. R. INCENTIVE PLANS. AMENDED 1992 INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN. The 1992 Incentive Stock Plan (Plan), adopted in 1992 and amended in 1995, provides for the granting of both nonqualified and incentive stock options. Stock appreciation rights may also be granted in conjunction with stock options. The Plan also permits stock awards and stock equivalents to be granted. Key employees of Northern Trust are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Compensation and Benefits Committee (Committee) of the Board of Directors. The total number of shares of the Corporation's common stock authorized for distribution under the Plan is 3,750,000. Stock options consist of options to purchase common stock at purchase prices not less than 100% of the fair market value thereof on the date the option is granted. Options are exercisable not later than ten years after the date of grant. In addition, the Plan provides that all options will become exercisable upon a change of control as defined in the Plan. All options terminate at such time as determined by the Committee and as provided in the option. Under the Plan, stock awards or equivalents can be awarded by the Committee to participants which entitle them to receive a payment in cash or Northern Trust Corporation common stock based on such terms and conditions as the Committee deems appropriate including achievement of performance goals. 38 Northern Trust Corporation AMENDED INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN. The Amended Incentive Stock Plan, adopted in 1986, was superseded by the 1992 Incentive Stock Plan and terminated on December 31, 1994. Outstanding grants and awards under the Amended Incentive Stock Plan will remain in effect in accordance with their terms, but no further grants or awards will be made. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN. Performance shares have been granted to executive officers under the provisions of the Amended 1992 and the Amended Incentive Stock Plans whereby the executives will be entitled to have each award credited to an account maintained for them if established performance goals are achieved with distribution after vesting. The value of shares earned but not yet distributed under the plans is credited to performance share accounts and is shown in stockholders' equity as common stock issuable-performance plan. OTHER INCENTIVE PLANS. Various incentive plans provide for stock and cash incentives, and bonuses to selected employees based upon the accomplishment of various corporate net income objectives, business unit goals and individual performance. The above incentive plans provide for acceleration of benefits in certain circumstances including a change of control. S. OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS. Northern Trust maintains an unfunded postretirement health care plan. Employees retiring under the provisions of The Northern Trust Pension Plan may be eligible for postretirement health care coverage. These benefits may be subject to deductibles, co-payment provisions and other limitations. The provisions may be changed at the discretion of Northern Trust, which also reserves the right to terminate these benefits at any time. T. INCOME TAXES. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes is followed. The objective is to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year, and to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from temporary differences between the amounts reported in the financial statements and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The measurement of tax assets and liabilities is based on enacted tax laws and applicable tax rates. U. CASH FLOW STATEMENTS. Cash and cash equivalents have been defined as those amounts included in the consolidated balance sheet as "Cash and Due from Banks." 2. RECLASSIFICATIONS--Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' consolidated financial statements to place them on a basis comparable with the current periods' consolidated financial statements. 3. SECURITIES--The following tables summarize the book and fair values of securities.
December 31, 1995 ----------------- Book Fair (In Millions) Value Value - ------------------------------------- Held to Maturity $ 535.1 $ 562.6 Available for Sale 5,136.3 5,136.3 Trading Account 88.9 88.9 - ------------------------------------- Total $5,760.3 $5,787.8

On December 31, 1995 securities with an amortized cost of $68.5 million were transferred from the held to maturity to the available for sale category. The net unrealized gain on these securities was $1.7 million, which was included as a credit of $1.1 million, net of taxes, in stockholders' equity as of December 31, 1995. The securities were transferred in conjunction with the transition provisions of accounting guidance recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board that addresses implementation issues related to SFAS No. 115. The reclassification will increase slightly Northern Trust's flexibility in regard to selling securities, but will not have a material impact on asset/liability management strategy. Income on obligations of states and political subdivisions totaled $30.7 million, $34.6 million and $38.3 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Dividends received on preferred stock totaled $8.0 million, $6.4 million and $3.8 million for 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

Other domestic and international loans include $810.4 million at December 31, 1995, and $716.6 million at December 31, 1994 of overnight trust-related advances in connection with next day security settlements. Lease financing includes leveraged leases of $85.5 million at December 31, 1995, and $59.8 million at December 31, 1994. Residential real estate loans held for sale totaled $7.6 million and $4.4 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. In May 1995, SFAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," was issued. This statement applies to entities that either purchase mortgage servicing rights or originate mortgage loans and subsequently sell the mortgage loans with servicing rights retained. In either case, the servicing rights must be capitalized as a separate asset and must be evaluated for impairment based on their fair value. The disclosure requirements of the statement are effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. Since Northern Trust's held for sale mortgage portfolio totaled $7.6 million as of January 1, 1996, the impact of adopting this statement was immaterial. NONPERFORMING ASSETS. Presented below are outstanding amounts of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and OREO.

There were no unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit issued to borrowers whose loans were classified as nonaccrual at December 31, 1995, versus $.1 million at December 31, 1994. Interest income that would have been recorded on domestic nonaccrual loans in accordance with their original terms amounted to $2.9 million in 1995, $3.1 million in 1994 and $3.5 million in 1993, compared with amounts that were actually recorded of $.7 million, $.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Interest income that would have been recorded on international nonaccrual loans in accordance with their original terms amounted to $.1 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, compared with amounts that were actually recorded at zero in all three years. Writedowns and realized losses on OREO of $.4 million in 1995, $.3 million in 1994 and $2.1 million in 1993 were charged to other operating expenses. Northern Trust adopted SFAS Nos. 114 and 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," effective January 1, 1995. These statements provide guidance as to when loans should be classified and reported as impaired and address how the reserve for credit losses related to these loans should be determined. Any shortfall in the estimated value of an impaired loan compared with the recorded investment of the loan is identified as an allocated portion of the reserve for credit losses and is one of the factors considered by management in their overall assessment of reserve adequacy. No changes were required to Northern Trust's accounting policies for loans, charge-offs and interest income as a result of adopting these statements. At December 31, 1995, nonperforming assets totaled $33.7 million. Included in this amount were loans with a recorded investment of $27.6 million which were also classified as impaired. Impaired loans totaling $9.2 million had no portion of the reserve for credit losses allocated to them, while $18.4 million had an allocated reserve of $1.0 million. For the year 1995, the total recorded investment in impaired loans averaged $26.4 million. Total interest income recognized on impaired loans for the year ended December 31, 1995 was $.7 million, most of which was recognized using the cash-basis method of accounting.

The charge for depreciation amounted to $42.2 million in 1995, $41.4 million in 1994 and $39.3 million in 1993. Occupancy expense has been reduced by $2.1 million in 1995, $2.0 million in 1994 and $1.7 million in 1993 from rental income on leased premises. 7. LEASE COMMITMENTS--At December 31, 1995, Northern Trust was obligated under a number of noncancellable operating leases for premises and equipment. Certain leases contain rent escalation clauses, based on market indices or increases in real estate taxes and other operating expenses and renewal option clauses calling for increased rentals. There are no restrictions imposed by any lease agreement regarding the payment of dividends, debt financing or Northern Trust entering into further lease agreements. Minimum annual lease commitments as of December 31, 1995, for all noncancellable operating leases are as follows.

The building and land utilized at the Chicago operations center has been leased under an agreement which qualifies as a capital lease. The long-term financing for the property was provided by the Corporation and the Bank. In the event of sale or refinancing, the Bank will receive all proceeds except for 58% of any proceeds in excess of the original project costs which will be paid to the lessor. The table below reflects the future minimum lease payments required under this lease, net of payments received on the long-term financing, and the present value of the net capital lease obligation at December 31, 1995 (refer to Note 8).

(a) Not redeemable prior to maturity. (b) Under the terms of its current offering circular, the Bank has the ability to offer from time to time its senior bank notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1.7 billion at any one time outstanding and up to an additional $200 million of subordinated notes. Each senior note will mature from 30 days to fifteen years and each subordinated note will mature from five years to fifteen years, following its date of original issuance. Each note will mature on such date as selected by the initial purchaser and agreed to by the Bank. (c) Notes are related to the contribution of 180,000 common shares to the ESOP trust. (d) Notes were issued directly by the ESOP trust to finance the purchase of 4,320,000 common shares. The Corporation unconditionally guarantees the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest. The interest rate is subject to adjustment in the event of certain tax law changes affecting ESOP plans. Refer to Note 1P. (e) Refer to Note 7. LINES OF CREDIT. The Corporation currently maintains commercial paper back-up facility lines of credit with four banks totaling $50 million. The facility was amended in 1995 which extended the termination date to November 1999, with two optional one-year extensions beyond that. The commitment fee is determined by a pricing matrix that is based on the long-term senior debt ratings of the Corporation. Currently, the annual fee is 1/10 of 1% of the commitment. There were no borrowings under commercial paper back-up facilities during 1995 or 1994. 9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY--PREFERRED STOCK. The Corporation is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock without par value. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized to fix the particular preferences, rights, qualifications and restrictions for each series of preferred stock issued. Summary of preferred stock outstanding is presented below.
December 31 ------------- (In Millions) 1995 1994 - ---------------------------------------------------- Auction Rate Preferred Stock Series C 600 shares @ $100,000 per share $ 60.0 $ 60.0 Flexible Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock Series D 600 shares @ $100,000 per share 60.0 60.0 6.25% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series E 50,000 shares @ $1,000 per share 50.0 50.0 - ---------------------------------------------------- Total Preferred Stock $170.0 $170.0
SERIES C--In 1987, 600 shares of Auction Rate Preferred Stock (APS) Series C were issued, with a $100,000 per share stated value. Dividends on the shares of APS are cumulative. Rates are determined every 49 days by Dutch auction unless the Corporation fails to pay a dividend or redeem any shares for which it has given notice of redemption, in which case the dividend rate will be set at 175% of the 60-day "AA" Composite Commercial Paper Rate. The dividend rate in any auction will not exceed a percentage determined by the prevailing credit rating of the APS. The current maximum dividend rate is 120% of the 60-day "AA" Composite Commercial Paper Rate. No dividends other than dividends payable in junior stock, such as Common Stock, may be paid on Common Stock until full cumulative dividends on the APS have been paid. The average rate for this issue as declared during 1995 was 4.52%. The shares of APS are redeemable at the option of the Corporation, in whole or in part, on any Dividend Payment Date at $100,000 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Northern Trust Corporation 43 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) SERIES D--In 1990, 600 shares of Flexible Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock Series D (FAPS) were issued with a $100,000 per share stated value. Each dividend period shall contain 49 days (the "Short-Term Dividend Period") or a number of days greater than 49 days (as selected by the Term Selection Agent) which is divisible by seven (the "Long-Term Dividend Period"). Rates for each dividend period are determined by Dutch auction unless the Corporation fails to pay the full amount of any dividend or redemption. The dividend rate in any auction will not exceed a percentage (currently 125%), determined by the prevailing credit rating of the FAPS, of the 60-day "AA" Composite Commercial Paper Rate or the Reference Rate, which rate is the Composite Commercial Paper Rate or the Treasury Rate, as appropriate for the length of each short-term or long-term dividend period, respectively. If the Corporation fails to pay the full amount of any dividend or redemption, each dividend period thereafter (until auctions are resumed) will be a Short-Term Dividend Period and the dividend rate will be 250% of the 60-day "AA" Composite Commercial Paper Rate; additional dividends will accrue for the balance of any Long-Term Dividend Period in which such a failure to pay occurs. No dividends other than dividends payable in junior stock, such as Common Stock, may be paid on Common Stock until full cumulative dividends on the FAPS have been paid. The average rate for this issue as declared during 1995 was 4.49%. The shares of FAPS are redeemable at the option of Northern Trust, in whole or in part, at $100,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. SERIES E--On January 5, 1996, the Corporation called for redemption its outstanding 6.25% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series E. The Series E was sold to the public in the the form of 1,000,000 Depositary Shares, each representing one-twentieth of a share of the Series E Preferred Stock (equal to 50,000 preferred shares). Subsequently, 994,737 of the total 1,000,000 Depositary Shares were converted at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $41.50 into 1,198,372 shares of the Corporation's common stock. The conversion resulted in fractions of shares for which the Corporation paid cash. The remaining 5,263 Depositary Shares were redeemed on January 26, 1996, for cash at a redemption price of $52.8038 per Depositary Share. PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS. In 1989, the Board of Directors of the Corporation declared a dividend distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right on each outstanding share of the Corporation's common stock to the stockholders of record on October 31, 1989. The Rights are subject to anti- dilution provisions, and each Right is now exercisable for one-third of one- hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $83.33 for each such fractional share. The Rights are evidenced by the common stock certificates and are not exercisable or transferable apart from the common stock until twenty days after a person or group acquires 15 percent or more of the Corporation's voting power or announces a tender or exchange offer which could result in ownership of 25 percent or more of the voting power. Shares of the Participating Preferred Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. In the event that a person or group acquires 25 percent or more of the Corporation voting power or if the Corporation merges or engages in certain self-dealing transactions with a 15 percent or more stockholder, each Right will entitle the holder, other than such person or group in certain circumstances, to purchase that number of shares of surviving company common stock which at the time of the transaction would have a market value of twice the exercise price of the Right. The Rights do not have voting rights and are redeemable at the option of the Corporation at a price of one cent per Right at any time prior to the close of business on the 20th day following publication of the acquisition of 15 percent or more of the voting power by a person or group. Unless earlier redeemed, the Rights will expire on October 31, 1999. COMMON STOCK. In February 1994, the Corporation's common stock buyback authorization was increased by approximately 1.3 million shares, thus allowing the purchase after that date up to an aggregate of 4 million shares of the common stock. The Corporation may repurchase the shares from time to time via open market purchases, and the shares would be used for general corporate purposes. Analysis of changes in the number of shares of common stock outstanding follows. COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING

Northern Trust has state carryforwards which are available to offset future state tax return liabilities. As of December 31, 1995, there were state net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards of $15.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The carryforwards are subject to various limitations imposed by tax law. 11. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE COMPUTATIONS--Primary net income per common share is computed by dividing net income, after deduction of the preferred stock dividends, by the daily average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are based on outstanding stock options and common stock awards under the Amended 1992 and the Amended Incentive Stock Plans and other stock-based plans associated with acquisitions. Fully diluted net income per common share assumes, in addition to the above, the conversion of the Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock Series E. Northern Trust Corporation 45 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 12. RESTRICTIONS ON SUBSIDIARY DIVIDENDS AND LOANS OR ADVANCES--Provisions of state and federal banking laws restrict the amount of dividends that can be paid to the Corporation by its banking subsidiaries. Under applicable state and federal laws, no dividends may be paid in an amount greater than the net profits then on hand, reduced by certain loan losses (as defined in the applicable statute). In addition, for each of the Corporation's Federal Reserve member banking subsidiaries, prior approval of federal banking authorities is required if dividends declared by a subsidiary bank in any calendar year will exceed its net profits (as defined) for that year, combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years. Based on these regulations, the Corporation's banking subsidiaries, without regulatory approval, could declare dividends during 1996 equal to their 1996 eligible net profits (as defined) plus $181.1 million. The ability of each banking subsidiary to pay dividends to the Corporation may be further restricted as a result of regulatory policies and guidelines relating to dividend payments and capital adequacy. State and federal laws limit the transfer of funds by a banking subsidiary to the Corporation and certain of its affiliates in the form of loans or extensions of credit, investments or purchases of assets. Transfers of this kind to the Corporation or a nonbanking subsidiary by a banking subsidiary are each limited to 10% of the banking subsidiary's capital and surplus with respect to each affiliate and to 20% in the aggregate, and are also subject to certain collateral requirements. These transactions, as well as other transactions between a banking subsidiary and the Corporation or its affiliates, must also be on terms substantially the same as, or at least as favorable as, those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies or, in the absence of comparable transactions, on terms, or under circumstances, including credit standards, that would be offered to, or would apply to, non-affiliated companies. 13. OTHER OPERATING INCOME--The fee portion of treasury management revenues totaled $49.6 million in 1995, $46.3 million in 1994 and $49.0 million in 1993. Net foreign exchange revenues including trading, hedge and translation gains or losses were $55.3 million in 1995, $36.0 million in 1994 and $32.1 million in 1993, and included foreign exchange trading profits of $55.4 million, $35.9 million and $32.4 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Included in the 1994 results is a $28.5 million pretax gain on the sale of an investment in Banque Scandinave en Suisse (BSS), net of approximately $6.0 million in ancillary and other sale-related transition costs associated with the transfer of custody accounts from BSS to the Bank's London Branch. 14.

Pension expense for 1993 was $7.2 million and $2.7 million for the qualified and nonqualified plans, respectively. Due to retirements in 1994 and 1995 a substantial number of lump-sum payments were made from both the qualified and nonqualified plans which resulted in settlement charges of $4.1 million in 1995 and $9.6 million in 1994. During 1993 a settlement charge of $1.7 million was recognized due to payments from the nonqualified plan. Settlement charges are included in other operating expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Total assets in the "Rabbi" Trust primarily related to the nonqualified pension plan at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, amounted to $8.7 million, $9.3 million and $9.4 million, respectively. A pension plan is also maintained for the London Branch employees. At December 31, 1995, the fair value of assets and the projected benefit obligation totaled approximately $7.1 million and $8.1 million, respectively. At December 31, 1994, the fair value of assets and the projected benefit obligation were $6.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively. Pension expense for 1995 and 1994 was $.6 million and $.7 million, respectively. THRIFT INCENTIVE PLAN. Total expenses associated with the Thrift Incentive Plan amounted to $11.3 million in 1995, $10.6 million in 1994 and $9.9 million in 1993. ESOP.

Northern Trust Corporation 47 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS. The following tables set forth the funded status at December 31 and the net periodic postretirement benefit cost of the domestic postretirement health care plan for 1995 and 1994. The transition obligation at January 1, 1993 is being amortized to expense over a twenty year period. PLAN STATUS

Postretirement health care expense for 1993 was $4.8 million. For measurement purposes, a 10.8 percent annual increase in the cost of covered health care benefits was assumed for 1996. This rate is assumed to decrease gradually to 5.6 percent in 2021 and remain at that level thereafter. The health care cost trend rate assumption has a significant effect on the amounts reported. For example, increasing the assumed health care trend rate by one percentage point in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for the postretirement health care plan as of December 31, 1995 by approximately $7.3 million, and the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of the 1995 net periodic postretirement benefit cost by $.8 million. The weighted average discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 7.50 percent at December 31, 1995 and 7.75 percent at December 31, 1994. As permitted by the provisions of SFAS No. 106, the London Branch began accruing for postretirement health care benefits effective January 1, 1995. The transition obligation of $.4 million established at January 1, 1995 is being amortized over a twenty year period. Postretirement benefit expense for 1995 was $.1 million and the total Accumulated Postretirement Benefit Obligation at December 31, 1995 was $.4 million. POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS. In 1994, SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," was adopted. The statement requires employers to adopt accrual accounting for workers compensation, disability, severance and other benefits provided after employment but before retirement. The accounting under the new statement is essentially the same as Northern Trust's previous policy. 16. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES--Because of the nature of its activities, Northern Trust is subject to pending and threatened legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. In the judgment of management, after consultation with counsel, none of the litigation to which the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries is a party will have a material effect, either individually or in the aggregate, on the consolidated financial position or results of operations. 17. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data when computing estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts Northern Trust could have realized in a market exchange. The information provided below should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of Northern Trust since the disclosures, in accordance with SFAS No. 107, exclude the values of nonfinancial assets and liabilities, as well as a wide range of franchise, relationship, and intangible values, which are integral to a full assessment of the consolidated financial position. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methods may have a material effect on the computation of estimated fair values. Therefore, comparisons between Northern Trust's disclosures and those of other financial institutions may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair values of the financial instruments: SECURITIES. Fair values of securities were based on quoted market values, when available. If quoted market values were not available, fair values were based on quoted market values for comparable instruments. 48 Northern Trust Corporation LOANS (NOT INCLUDING LEASE FINANCING RECEIVABLES). The fair values of one-to- four family residential mortgages were based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair values of the remainder of the loan portfolio were estimated using a discounted cash flow method in which the discount rate used was the rate at which Northern Trust would have originated the loan had it been originated as of the financial statement date, giving effect to current economic conditions on loan collectibility. SAVINGS CERTIFICATES, OTHER TIME AND FOREIGN OFFICES TIME DEPOSITS, AND SENIOR NOTES. The fair values of these instruments were estimated using a discounted cash flow method that incorporated market interest rates. NOTES PAYABLE. Fair values were based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices were not available, fair values were based on quoted market prices for comparable instruments. OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The fair values of commitments and letters of credit represent the amount of unamortized fees on these instruments. The fair values of all other off-balance sheet financial instruments were estimated using market prices, pricing models, or quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS VALUED AT CARRYING VALUE. Due to their short maturity, the respective carrying values of certain on-balance sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and due from banks; money market assets; customers' acceptance liability; trust security settlement receivables; federal funds purchased; securities sold under agreements to repurchase; commercial paper; other borrowings; and liability on acceptances. The fair values required to be disclosed for demand, savings, and money market deposits pursuant to SFAS No. 107 must equal the amounts disclosed in the consolidated balance sheet. FAIR VALUES OF ON-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The following table summarizes the fair values of on-balance sheet financial instruments.

*Assets and liabilities associated with foreign exchange contracts averaged $183.0 million and $180.5 million, respectively, during 1995. Assets and liabilities associated with other client-related and trading account instruments averaged $2.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively, during 1995. 18. OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS-- A. COMMITMENTS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT. Northern Trust, in the normal course of business, enters into various types of commitments and issues letters of credit to meet the liquidity and credit enhancement needs of its clients. Credit risk is the principal risk associated with these instruments. The contractual amounts of these instruments represent the credit risk should the instrument be fully drawn upon and the client default. To control the credit risk associated with entering into commitments and issuing letters of credit, Northern Trust subjects such activities to the same credit quality and monitoring controls as its lending activities. Commitments and letters of credit consist of the following: LEGALLY BINDING COMMITMENTS TO EXTEND CREDIT generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Since a significant portion of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future loans or liquidity requirements. PARTICIPATIONS IN BANKERS ACCEPTANCES obligate Northern Trust, in the event of default by the counterparty, to reimburse the holder of the acceptance an amount equal to its participation in the acceptance. COMMERCIAL LETTERS OF CREDIT are instruments issued by Northern Trust on behalf of its clients that authorize a third party (the beneficiary) to draw drafts up to a stipulated amount under the specified terms and conditions of the agreement. Commercial letters of credit are issued primarily to facilitate international trade. STANDBY LETTERS OF CREDIT obligate Northern Trust to meet certain financial obligations of its clients, if, under the contractual terms of the agreement, the clients are unable to do so. These instruments are primarily issued to support public and private financial commitments, including commercial paper, bond financing, initial margin requirements on futures exchanges and similar transactions. The following table shows the contractual amounts of commitments and letters of credit. COMMITMENTS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT
December 31 ----------------- (In Millions) 1995 1994 - --------------------------------------------------------------- Legally Binding Commitments to Extend Credit $8,906.0 $7,397.7 Participations in Bankers Acceptances 1.5 6.3 Commercial Letters of Credit 167.7 227.2 Standby Letters of Credit: Corporate $ 448.4 $ 372.6 Industrial Revenue 379.9 318.7 Other 194.5 128.6 - --------------------------------------------------------------- Total Standby Letters of Credit* $1,022.8 $ 819.9
*These amounts include $96.2 million and $75.8 million of standby letters of credit secured by cash deposits or participated to others as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The weighted average maturity of standby letters of credit was 19 months at December 31, 1995 and 1994. B. RISK MANAGEMENT INSTRUMENTS. These instruments include foreign exchange contracts, foreign currency futures contracts, and various interest risk management instruments. Northern Trust is a party to various risk management instruments that are used in the normal course of business to meet the risk management needs of its clients; as part of its trading activity for its own account; and as part of its asset/liability management activities. The major risk associated with these instruments is that interest or foreign exchange rates could change in an unanticipated manner, resulting in higher interest costs or a loss in the underlying value of the instrument. These risks are mitigated by 50 Northern Trust Corporation establishing limits for risk management positions, monitoring the level of actual positions taken against such established limits, monitoring the level of any interest rate sensitivity gaps created by such positions, and by using hedging techniques. When establishing position limits, market liquidity and volatility, as well as experience in each market are all taken into account. The estimated credit risk associated with these instruments relates to the failure of the counterparty to pay based on the contractual terms of the agreement, and is generally limited to the gross unrealized market value gains on these instruments. The amount of credit risk will increase or decrease during the lives of the instruments as interest and foreign exchange rates fluctuate. This risk is controlled by limiting such activity to an approved list of counterparties and by subjecting such activity to the same credit and quality controls as are followed in lending and investment activities. Risk management instruments include: FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONTRACTS are agreements to exchange specific amounts of currencies at a future date, at a specified rate of exchange. Foreign exchange contracts are entered into primarily to meet the foreign exchange risk management needs of clients. Foreign exchange contracts are also used for trading purposes and asset and liability management. FOREIGN CURRENCY AND INTEREST RATE FUTURES CONTRACTS are agreements for delayed delivery of foreign currency, securities or money market instruments in which the buyer agrees to take delivery at a specified future date of a specified currency, security, or instrument, at a specified price or yield. All of Northern Trust's futures contracts are traded on organized exchanges that require the daily settlement of changes in the value of the contracts. Futures contracts are utilized in trading activities and asset/liability management to protect Northern Trust's exposure to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates or interest rates. INTEREST RATE PROTECTION CONTRACTS are agreements which enable clients to transfer, modify or reduce their interest rate risk. As a seller of interest rate protection, Northern Trust receives a fee at the outset of the agreement and then assumes the risk of an unfavorable change in interest rates. Northern Trust also purchases interest rate protection contracts for asset and liability management. INTEREST RATE SWAP CONTRACTS involve the exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payment obligations without the exchange of the underlying principal amounts; these types of transactions constitute the majority of the interest rate swap portfolio. Northern Trust has also entered into a limited number of more complex interest rate swap transactions that were executed concurrently with the purchase of $336 million of structured agency notes. The structured notes are included in the available for sale portion of the security portfolio. The interest rate swap contracts are used to hedge the nonstandard features of the structured notes thereby converting them to U.S. dollar denominated floating rate notes indexed to LIBOR. FORWARD SALE CONTRACTS represent commitments to sell a specified amount of securities at an agreed upon date and price. Northern Trust utilizes forward sale contracts principally in connection with its sale of mortgage loans. EXCHANGE-TRADED OPTION CONTRACTS grant the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to purchase or sell at a specified price, a stated number of units of an underlying financial instrument, at a future date. The following table shows the contractual/notional amounts of risk management instruments. The notional amounts of risk management instruments do not represent credit risk, and are not recorded in the consolidated balance sheet. They are used merely to express the volume of this activity. RISK MANAGEMENT INSTRUMENTS

Information about Northern Trust's strategies and objectives related to derivative financial instruments used for asset and liability management can be found on pages 28 and 29 and is incorporated by reference. No deferred gains or losses related to derivative financial instruments used for asset and liability management were included in the consolidated balance sheet at year-end 1995 or 1994. Net revenue associated with client-related and trading interest risk management activities totaled $2.8 million, $2.4 million, and $1.0 million during 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively. The majority of these revenues are related to Northern Trust Corporation 51 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) interest rate swaps, futures contracts, and rate protection agreements, and are reported as trading income in the consolidated statement of income. However, these amounts also include interest income earned on U.S. Government securities that were classified as trading account securities and hedged with futures contracts. C. OTHER OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. As part of securities custody activities and at the direction of trust clients, Northern Trust lends securities owned by clients to borrowers who are reviewed by the Credit Policy Credit Approval Committee. In connection with these activities, Northern Trust has issued certain indemnifications against loss resulting from the bankruptcy of the borrower of securities. The borrowing party is required to fully collateralize securities received with cash, U.S. Government and government agency securities, or irrevocable standby letters of credit. As securities are loaned, collateral is maintained at a minimum of 100 percent of the fair value of the securities plus accrued interest, with revaluation of the collateral on a daily basis. The amount of securities loaned as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 subject to indemnification was $8.2 billion and $5.0 billion, respectively. All securities borrowed were collateralized in excess of 100 percent of their current fair value as of December 31, 1995 and 1994. Because of the requirement to fully collateralize securities borrowed, management believes that the exposure to credit loss from this activity is remote. The Bank is a participating member of various cash and securities clearing organizations. It participates in these organizations on behalf of its clients and on behalf of itself as a result of its own investment and trading activities. A wide variety of securities transactions are settled through these organizations, including those involving obligations of states and political subdivisions, asset-backed securities, commercial paper, Eurodollars and securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association. As a result of its participation in cash and securities clearing organizations, the Bank could be responsible for a pro rata share of certain credit-related losses arising out of the clearing activities. The method in which such losses would be shared by the clearing members is stipulated in each clearing organization's membership agreement. Credit exposure related to these agreements varies from day to day, primarily as a result of fluctuations in the volume of transactions cleared through the organizations. The estimated credit exposure at December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $71 million and $65 million, respectively, based on the clearing volume for those days. Controls related to these clearing transactions are closely monitored, however, to protect the assets of Northern Trust. During the second quarter of 1994, the Corporation entered into an agreement with The Benchmark Funds, for which the Bank is investment adviser. Under the agreement, which was essentially a written option contract, The Benchmark Funds had the option of selling to the Corporation in June 1995, at the higher of cost or market value, up to $111 million par value of certain floating rate federal agency securities whose returns lagged the sharp increase in short-term interest rates that occurred at the time the agreement was reached. The agreement also gave the Corporation the option of purchasing the securities from The Benchmark Funds at the higher of cost or market value. The agreement increased net asset values and so preserved the investment flexibility necessary to maintain competitive yields in certain money market portfolios of The Benchmark Funds, which are used for cash management and investment by the Bank's institutional clients. The Corporation exercised its option to purchase the securities in June 1995 at an aggregate price of $110.6 million, equal to the Funds' amortized cost basis in the securities. The securities, which mature in February 1997, were recorded by the Corporation at their fair value of $107.7 million. The fair value of the agreement recorded in other liabilities when the Corporation entered into the 1994 agreement, was $3.5 million. This reserve exceeded the loss realized in 1995 by $.6 million. 19. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK--The information in the section titled Loans and Other Extensions of Credit found on pages 20 through 22 is incorporated by reference. 20. PLEDGED AND RESTRICTED ASSETS--Certain of Northern Trust's subsidiaries, as required or permitted by law, pledge assets to secure public and trust deposits, repurchase agreements and for other purposes. On December 31, 1995, securities and loans totaling $3.9 billion ($3.1 billion of U.S. Government and agency securities, $216.8 million of obligations of states and political subdivisions and $622.6 million of loans and other securities), were pledged. Collateral required for these purposes totaled $2.6 billion. Deposits maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank to meet reserve requirements averaged $278.1 million in 1995 and $307.7 million in 1994. 21. INCENTIVE PLANS AND AWARDS--AMENDED 1992 INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN AND AMENDED INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN (PLANS). In October 1995, SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," was issued. The accounting method for stock-based compensation provided in the statement, in particular for stock options, differs from APB Opinion No. 25, in which most of the accounting requirements for stock-based compensation were previously contained. The measurement and recognition provisions of the statement are 52 Northern Trust Corporation elective and disclosure requirements of the statement are effective in 1996. An entity that continues to apply Opinion No. 25 will be required to provide pro forma net income and earnings per share as if the method in SFAS No. 123 had been used to account for stock-based compensation costs. Northern Trust is currently in the process of developing a stock option model to be used in calculating the pro forma information required by SFAS No. 123.
