         CHASE OPERATING EPS RISES 16 PERCENT IN THE 1997 SECOND QUARTER

         New York, July 15, 1997 -- The Chase Manhattan Corporation today
reported that fully diluted operating earnings per share rose to $2.11 before
merger-related restructuring costs, from $1.82 in the second quarter of 1996.
Fully-diluted operating earnings per share for the first six months rose to
$4.11 from $3.62 in the prior-year period.

         Operating net income rose by $100 million to $969 million in the 1997
second quarter. Including merger-related restructuring costs, net income was
$925 million compared with $856 million. In the first half of 1997, operating
net income was $1,915 million compared with $1,737 million in the same 1996
period.

         SECOND QUARTER 1997 HIGHLIGHTS

     -   Revenue on a managed basis rose seven percent, with gains across both
         business franchises

     -   Incremental merger savings were $185 million, bringing cumulative
         merger savings to $945 million

     -   Return on average common stockholders' equity was 20 percent, compared
         with 19 percent in the 1996 quarter

     -   The efficiency ratio on a managed basis improved to 54 percent

     -   The Corporation purchased $630 million of its common equity under its
         previously-announced stock buy-back program

         "These excellent second quarter results demonstrate Chase's vibrant
wholesale and consumer business franchises, and the benefits of our
customer-focused execution," said Walter V. Shipley, chairman and chief
executive officer. "We remain on track to meet our earnings and efficiency goals
while continuing to make the investments necessary to ensure future growth."

SECOND QUARTER LINE OF BUSINESS RESULTS

Global Wholesale Banking

         Operating net income from Global Wholesale Banking rose 24 percent;
total revenues increased by 8 percent.

         Net income from Chase's Global Markets businesses rose substantially,
reflecting record trading results. Total trading revenues were $655 million,
including $164 million of trading-related net interest income, the result of
very strong performance across the breadth of Chase's trading and sales platform
amid favorable market conditions. Chase benefited from active market making and
client business in its traditional foreign exchange and interest rate
activities, strong growth in specialty derivative products and continued high
levels of securities trading and underwriting.

         Corporate finance and loan syndication fees rebounded sharply from
first quarter levels, and rose in comparison with the prior year quarter.
Investment banking deal flow increased across the full range of market and
customer segments. Revenues from securities underwriting continued to grow, as
the volume of lead mandates increased in an active high yield market.
Equity-related investment revenues, while slightly above trend, were lower
compared with strong 1996 second quarter levels.

         Net income from Chase Global Services rose 29 percent, the result of
growth in assets under custody and new business initiatives, as well as
continued productivity gains. Revenues from Asset Management and Private Banking
were higher, reflecting increased investment advisory activities.

Regional and Nationwide Consumer Banking

         Higher revenues in Regional and Nationwide Consumer Banking were offset
by an increase in loan losses and expenses related to marketing initiatives and
new product offerings. As a result, operating net income declined in the
quarter.

         Credit Card revenues rose by 13 percent as average managed receivables
increased by $2.2 billion. Net income declined in the quarter, reflecting higher
credit card charge-offs and expenses related to co-branding initiatives.

         Net income from Mortgage Banking rose substantially, the result of
strong revenue growth and productivity gains from the reengineering of Chase's
mortgage origination business.

                                       3



         Net income for Chase tri-state regional banking, which includes retail
payment and investments and middle market banking, increased by 9 percent,
reflecting revenue growth from higher deposit and investment levels, new
products and the benefits of ongoing efficiency initiatives.

ADDITIONAL SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Asset Quality

         The provision for credit losses was $189 million, compared with $250
million in the second quarter of 1996.

         Total managed consumer net charge-offs in the second quarter of 1997
were $457 million, of which $190 million were related to assets retained on the
balance sheet. That compared with net charge-offs of $328 million in the second
quarter of 1996, of which $192 million were related to retained assets.

         Managed credit card net charge-offs were $383 million in the 1997
second quarter or 5.99 percent of average managed receivables. That compared
with $279 million or 4.78 percent of average managed receivables in the
prior-year quarter.

         Total commercial net recoveries were $2 million in the second quarter
of 1997 compared with total net charge-offs of $76 million in the second quarter
of 1996.

         Nonperforming assets, at June 30, 1997, were $1,106 million, compared
with $1,126 million on March 31, 1997, and $1,639 million on June 30, 1996.

Other Financial Data

         Total noninterest operating expense increased three percent to $2,389
million. The quarter included incremental merger savings of $185 million, which
were offset by investment spending and increased incentives related to strong
trading results. The quarter also included restructuring expenses of $71
million, bringing total restructuring expenses to $265 million. The Corporation
expects that the restructuring expense component of its previously-announced
$1.9 billion merger-related costs will rise by $100 million to $125 million.

         The Corporation remains on track to achieve its 1997 financial goals,
including annual earnings per share growth of 15 percent; return on common
equity of 19 percent; an efficiency ratio of between 54 to 55 percent and
incremental merger savings of $635 million to $680 million. The Corporation
continues to target annual revenue growth of six to eight percent. Due primarily
to the reasons described in the paragraph above, underlying noninterest
operating expense for the full year is now expected to exceed six percent.

         During the 1997 second quarter, the Corporation purchased approximately
6.7 million common shares as part of a stock repurchase plan announced in
October of 1996. The Corporation reissued approximately 1.7 million treasury
shares under the Corporation's employee benefit plans, resulting in a net
repurchase of 5.0 million shares ($470 million) of its common stock.
