(a) Allfirst has reclassified certain categories of income and costs.
Network service fees and VISA(R) royalties, previously shown as
cost items, are now offset against the associated revenue and
shown as noninterest income. A new category titled electronic
banking income captures ATM fees, surcharge revenue and
interchange income from VISA(R) debit card transactions.
Previously ATM fees were presented with deposit service charges
and debit card income was presented with credit card income. All
comparatives have been restated accordingly.
