The World Turned Upside Down
Lovers of theatre (and anyone who watched the Tony Awards) 
will know this line from the play, Hamilton. In the play, the
characters sing the phrase, “The world turned upside down,” 
in response to the colonies’ victory at Yorktown over the British.
Some have claimed that our recent presidential election holds at
one time the same eagerness or trepidation (depending on your
perspective of the results) expressed by this line.

Our bank and our affiliate divisions have been around 100+ years.
Thus, we have operated under 19 U.S. presidents and are now on
the 20th. As we’ve done with every other administration, we will
honor the office, hope the best for the individual holding it and
work within the guardrails we see at the time.

We track a long list of numbers; these are our favorites:

How did we do what we did?
We have three primary operating segments in Park National

Financial Services Company (GFSC) and SE Property Holdings, 
LLC (SEPH). To understand how we generated our favorite

SEPH is the entity charged with maximizing the value of legacy
Vision Bank problem assets. Bryan Campolo and Jennifer Corbitt
have persisted with an unwavering focus on collections, with
excellent results. The good news is that they are nearing the 
end of their work on this task.

Our Annual Report offers more detail on all our financial results.

Community
It has become fashionable to state a corporate mission to “support
our community,” or “buy local.” This has been a way of life for us
for decades. Our late Chairman John W. Alford, who served your
institution for 61 years, was unrelenting in reminding us, “If we
take care of our communities, our communities will take care of
us.” And so we do—with time, talent and treasure. We don’t talk
about this much, but we have learned from focus groups that 
a) the focus group participants valued community support and 
b) they were largely unaware of how, where and why we support
our communities. Hence, our affiliate divisions have been a bit
more open about the depth and breadth of our involvement.

A number of our communities are enjoying something of a
renaissance. Public/Private partnerships, animated by energy 
and imagination, are transforming downtowns and squares into
commercial, cultural and educational destinations. People,
businesses and schools are moving into newly renovated buildings
that used to house feed mills, manufacturing facilities and garages.
The energy in our communities is palpable.

Home Loans
Perhaps nothing is more personal than one’s home. For years, 
we have worked with many fine, local realtors who join us in the
privilege of helping people acquire their homes. Realtors and
clients alike value our lenders’ candor, urgency and
professionalism.  

Few things ignite a community’s economy like home construction.
Economists suggest that for every dollar spent on home con -
struction, three to four dollars are generated in additional activity.
We’ve had the privilege of working with excellent local builders and
contractors helping make new home owners’ dreams materialize.

Of the $506 million in home loans we made last year in our
communities, roughly half were for construction or purchase.

On-line deposit account application: When we reconfigured
the websites, we also introduced the possibility of opening certain
deposit accounts on-line. While not yet an avalanche, we have
found new friends through this channel and they tell us they are
thrilled with the convenience of on-line account opening coupled
with access to helpful humans if they hit a snag.

What changed from November 8th to December 30th? Not our
devotion to our customers. Not our interest in our communities.
Not our quest for excellence in process and execution. Rather, 
we believe that as a result of the election, expectations changed
about three things that might affect the banking industry’s collective
net income: regulation, taxes and interest rates. It appears that
operating expenses may decline as a result of reduced regulation;
that corporate taxes may be reduced; and that the yield curve 
might steepen, as rates rise on the long end (a steeper yield curve
generally implies higher net interest margins). We will believe all 
of this when we see it. Until then, we will continue to fertilize the
seeds we’ve planted for excellence in customer service, operational
execution and community support. Daily excellence breeds long-
term excellence, and we intend to be around for a long time.

Customer experience—New and Old
We think a lot about how to improve our customers’ experiences
with us. Customers engage us in person, on the phone, through our
websites, through mobile devices or some combination of all four.
What are we doing to improve our work in these areas?

New Things
Affiliate Division Websites: We reconfigured our websites* in
the fourth quarter. After speaking to a number of customers and
associates, we gave the website designers a nearly impossible task:
translate the warmth and compassion of our in-person interactions
into an on-line website experience. The tone is set from the
opening line on each site:

This website isn’t here so we can talk about ourselves. 
So, let’s narrow it down to the things you care about.

The visitor then can select from a menu of possibilities that are
specific to their situation, so they can customize their experience.
Of course, they can always chat with, call or e-mail someone or
find the location of the nearest branch and ATM.

Customer Care Center: As we write this on February 13, 2017,
our Customer Care Center (it’s much more than a call center) has
been open continuously for 1,001 hours. We have been answering
calls, corresponding through on-line chats and resetting passwords
during all hours of the day and night since January 2, 2017.
Friendly, helpful bankers available 24x7...pretty cool.

Dealer Direct Financing: Our dedicated team of lenders serve
over 500 auto, boat and RV dealers throughout Ohio with urgency,
professionalism and personal attention. Our commitment to service
excellence begins with operating hours that are aligned to support
our dealer partners when they are open for business—including
evenings, weekends and holidays. We value our relationships with
them and work hard to remain a lender of choice.

Systems/Processes: We have spent millions of dollars and
thousands of hours upgrading our systems and processes to take
advantage of new software solutions, abide by new regulatory
requirements and offer a better experience for our customers. 
This activity is largely transparent to the outside world, which is
how we prefer it. But it profoundly affects our people, who have
invested many hours before and after typical business hours
installing new hardware/software and training on new methods.
We are grateful for their dedication and perseverance. 

Old Fashioned Things
Affiliate Divisions: Our affiliate divisions are vital members of
their respective communities. Local social service organizations,
school districts, sports teams and chambers of commerce turn 
to them for leadership, volunteer support and dollars.  And our
colleagues supply all three. Why? Because it’s their community,
their schools, their United Way. It’s fun and it’s the right thing 
to do.

People: Our people make this place. Each day we marvel at their
skill and dedication. What separates them is their mindset. Our
colleagues start with, “How can I help this situation, this person,
this organization, this community?” Then they act upon their sense
of what to do. They become known as “go to” people, who get
things done. We are grateful for their devotion and are humbled 
to serve with them.

Phones: If someone calls us directly (and they can), we still
attempt to answer our phones personally. Kind of old-fashioned,
but we like it.

Freedom Years™: This year we celebrated 25 years of our
Freedom Years™ program. The program has grown as the 
result of enthusiastic, energetic colleagues across all our affiliate
divisions. They offer expert advice with a friendly smile. In addition
to excellent financial counsel, our Freedom Years™ colleagues
offer a wide range of social activities and travel opportunities.
These include:
(cid:0) escorting people on trips (2017 plans include The Panama

Canal, Victoria, B.C., Grand Teton National Park and Hawaii)
(cid:0) hosting events like euchre parties (which were pretty spirited

until we adopted a common set of rules...we didn’t even know
what it meant to “stick the dealer,” much less how important 
it was to employ or not employ this rule)

(cid:0) conducting classes (such as “Avoiding Consumer Scams” and

“Roth IRA Conversion”)

We are grateful for our Freedom Years™ members’ loyalty and look
forward to another 25 years of serving them and inviting others to
join the fun!

Our Culture and Contact Management
We have hundreds of threads in our cultural fabric. Some are
foundation threads; others support and add color to our cultural
quilt. One of the foundation threads is what we call “contact
management.” The rest of the world calls this sales.

Contact management starts with the premise that people 
need things we provide—checking and savings accounts,
car/home/commercial loans, and estate planning/investment
management. But they don’t need them until they need them. 
We can’t feel good about pushing products/services on someone
who doesn’t need them. But we are relentless about finding out
when and how our offerings might help a customer/prospect
thrive. So we contact people—as often as they permit us, so 
they know we are interested, but not so often we are a pest. 
(Our marketing colleagues reminded us that we wrote this 
last year—but it still holds true.) Each person has a different
frequency and we honor their wishes.

Player Moves
On May 1, 2016, former Richland Bank division president John 
A. Brown became president of our Security National division upon
Bill Fralick’s retirement. Christopher R. Hiner replaced John as
President at Richland. John and Chris bring enthusiasm, talent and
experience to their new roles. They have spent their professional
careers at Park and each balances a burning desire for excellence
with a passion for service. We are looking forward to great things
from both.

Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB)
We have enjoyed a long relationship with the FHLB. It is staffed by
bright people and has an engaged board of excellent leaders. We
are pleased to report that the FHLB board now includes Park’s
CFO, Brady T. Burt. He joins Park and PNB director James R.
DeRoberts, who has served on the FHLB board since 2008.

Fond Farewells
Maureen Buchwald
Maureen joined the First-Knox board July 19, 1988. Since 1997,
when First-Knox joined Park, she has served on the Park board as
well. She retired from the Park board April 26, 2016, but continues
as a First-Knox advisory board member. We are grateful for her
service on the Park board and are delighted that she’s still serving
First-Knox. We miss her wise counsel, but know we still have her
unwavering support.

The following individuals ended their service on our affiliate
advisory boards last year. Each brought unique talent, judgment
and perspective to their respective affiliate divisions. All were
unswerving in their support of their affiliate division and Park. 
We are grateful for their service and we will miss their candor, 
wit and wisdom.

Final thoughts
We hear from many quarters about things that divide people. 
Our past leaders taught us to look for the common humanity in 
all. Thus, we focus on what connects us. Let us know how we may
connect with you.

“The more one forgets himself—by giving himself to 
a cause to serve or another person to love—the more
human he is.”

—Viktor E. Frankl

“Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come 
to you without leaving happier.”

—Saint Teresa of Calcutta

David L. Trautman
Chief Executive Officer and President

Warm Welcomes
As some of our affiliate division advisory board members 
have departed, others have joined. In February, Century 
National welcomed Scott D. Eickelberger and Julie A. Brown. 
Mr. Eickelberger is a partner with Kincaid, Taylor & Geyer 
attorneys in Zanesville. Ms. Brown is active in her family’s 
local businesses in and around Zanesville.

In June, Jeanne Golliher joined the PNB Southwest advisory board.
Ms. Golliher is president and CEO of the Cincinnati Development
Fund.

In December, Second National added Travis L. Fliehman and
Michael J. Pax to their advisory board. Mr. Fliehman is a partner
with Detling, Harlan & Fliehman, Ltd.; Mr. Pax is President of Pax
Machine Works, Inc.

Mssrs. Eickelberger, Fliehman and Pax and Mses. Brown and
Golliher are excellent, local leaders. We are glad they’ve brought
their talents to our team.

The Power of Why
Simon Sinek, in a popular TED Talk, discusses the difference
between good and great companies. He suggests that good
companies know what they do and how they do it. But great
companies not only know what they do and how they do it, 
but also why they do it. As Mr. Sinek states, “Customers don’t 
buy what you do or how you do it—they buy why you do it.”

What is our Why?
In The Power of Full Engagement, authors Jim Loehr and Tony
Schwartz describe four dimensions of energy: Physical, Emotional,
Mental and Spiritual. They discuss how each is like a bucket: it 
can be drained or filled. We like to help people fill their energy
buckets; we want to add to their reservoirs. If we help people
flourish in this way, they are pleased and we are delighted. If they
then think of us when they have some type of financial need, great.
If not, still great. We have been here for 100+ years, and we are
patient. We can control the degree to which we help people
fill their energy buckets; we cannot compel their need for
a loan, deposit or investment account. But when they do need
one, maybe, just maybe, they will turn to someone who helped
them in the rest of their life.

the creditworthiness of certain sovereign governments, supranationals and

Kingdom’s exit from the European Union and its consequences; our litigation
and regulatory compliance exposure, including any adverse developments in
legal proceedings or other claims and unfavorable resolution of regulatory and
other governmental examinations or other inquiries; the adequacy of our risk
management program; the ability to secure confidential information and deliver
products and services through the use of computer systems and telecommuni-
cations networks; a failure in or breach of our operational or security systems

financial markets generally or on us or our counterparties specifically; demand
for loans in the respective market areas served by Park and our subsidiaries;
and other risk factors relating to the banking industry as detailed from time to
time in Park’s reports filed with the SEC including those described in “Item 1A.
Risk Factors” of Part I of Park’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2016. Park does not undertake, and specifically disclaims
any obligation, to publicly release the results of any revisions that may be made
to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the events or circumstances

OVERVIEW

Financial Results by Segment

The table below reflects the net income (loss) by segment for the fiscal years
ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014. Park’s segments include The Park
National Bank (“PNB”), Guardian Financial Services Company (“GFSC”), SE
Property Holdings, LLC (“SEPH”) and all other which primarily consists of 
Park as the “Parent Company.”

The category “Parent Company” above excludes the results for SEPH, an 
entity which is winding down commensurate with the disposition of its problem
assets. Management considers the “Ongoing operations” results, which exclude
the results of SEPH, to reflect the business of Park and our subsidiaries going
forward. The following discussion below provides additional information
regarding the segments that make up the “Ongoing operations”, followed 
by additional information regarding SEPH.

Management’s discussion and analysis addresses the financial condition and
results of operations for Park National Corporation and our subsidiaries
(unless the context otherwise requires, collectively, “Park” or the
“Corporation”).  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
 consolidated financial statements and related notes and the five-year summary
of selected financial data.  Management’s discussion and analysis contains
forward-looking statements that are provided to assist in the understanding of
anticipated future financial performance. Forward-looking statements provide
current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of
future performance.  The forward-looking statements are based on manage-
ment’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.
Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-
looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from
those expressed or implied in such statements.  Risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially include, without limitation: Park’s
ability to execute our business plan successfully and within the expected time-
frame; general economic and financial market conditions, specifically in the
real estate markets and the credit markets, either nationally or in the states 
in which Park and our subsidiaries do business, may experience a slowing or
reversal of the recent economic expansion in addition to continuing residual
effects of recessionary conditions and an uneven spread of positive impacts of
recovery on the economy and our counterparties, including adverse impacts 
on the demand for loan, deposit and other financial services, delinquencies,
defaults and counterparties’ ability to meet credit and other obligations;
changes in interest rates and prices may adversely impact the value of
 securities, loans, deposits and other financial instruments and the interest rate
sensitivity of our consolidated balance sheet as well as reduce interest margins
and impact loan demand; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and
saving habits, whether due to changing business and economic conditions,
 legislative and regulatory initiatives, or other factors; changes in unemployment;
changes in customers’, suppliers’, and other counterparties’ performance and
creditworthiness; asset/liability repricing risks and liquidity risks; our liquidity
requirements could be adversely affected by changes to regulations governing
bank and bank holding company capital and liquidity standards as well as by
changes in our assets and liabilities; competitive factors among financial
 services organizations could increase significantly, including product and
pricing pressures, changes to third-party relationships and our ability to 
attract, develop and retain qualified bank professionals; clients could pursue
alternatives to bank deposits, causing us to lose a relatively inexpensive source
of funding; uncertainty regarding the nature, timing and effect of changes in
banking regulations or other regulatory or legislative requirements affecting the
respective businesses of Park and our subsidiaries, including major reform of
the regulatory oversight structure of the financial services industry and changes
in laws and regulations concerning taxes, pensions, bankruptcy, consumer pro-
tection, accounting, bank products and services, fiduciary standards, securities
and other aspects of the financial services industry, specifically the reforms pro-
vided for in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act 
of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms, as
well as regulations already adopted and which may be adopted in the future by
the relevant regulatory agencies, including the Consumer Financial Protection
Bureau, the OCC, the FDIC, and the Federal Reserve Board, to implement the
Dodd-Frank Act’s provisions, the Budget Control Act of 2011, the American
Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, the JOBS Act, the FAST Act and the Basel III regula-
tory capital reforms; the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices,
as may be adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and other regulatory agencies,
and the accuracy of our assumptions and estimates used to prepare our finan-
cial statements; the effect of trade, monetary, fiscal and other governmental
policies of the U.S. federal government, including money supply and interest
rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; disruption in the liquidity and other
functioning of U.S. financial markets; the impact on financial markets and the
economy of any changes in the credit ratings of the U.S. Treasury obligations

(1) Average assets for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Loans outstanding at December 31, 2016 were $5.23 billion, compared to
$5.03 billion at December 31, 2015, an increase of $206 million for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2016, or 4.1%. The loan growth in 2016 consisted 
of commercial loan growth of $82.2 million (3.2%), consumer loan growth 
of $152.5 million (15.6%), and HELOC loan growth of $1.1 million (0.5%),
offset by a reduction in residential loan balances of $28.9 million (2.3%).

PNB’s allowance for loan losses decreased by $5.7 million, or 10.4%, to $48.8
million at December 31, 2016, compared to $54.5 million at December 31,
2015. The decrease was the result of a $3.7 million decrease in specific
reserves and a $2.0 million decrease in general reserves. Net charge-offs 
were $8.3 million, or 0.16% of total average loans, for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2016. During the fourth quarter of 2016, PNB charged off $3.1
million in specific reserves for which provision expense had already been rec-
ognized. Refer to the “CREDIT EXPERIENCE: (Recovery of) Provision for Loan
Losses” section for additional information regarding PNB’s loan portfolio and
the level of (recovery of) provision for loan losses  recognized in each period
presented.

Net interest income of $227.6 million for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2016 represented a $6.7 million, or 3.0% increase, compared to $220.9
million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The increase was the
result of a $7.4 million increase in interest income offset by a $697,000
increase in interest expense.

The $7.4 million increase in interest income was due to a $10.3 million
increase in interest income on loans, offset by a $2.9 million decrease in
 interest income on investments. The increase in interest income on loans 
was largely the result of a $216 million, or 4.4%, increase in average loans
from $4.9 billion for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, to $5.1 billion
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. Included in interest income for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 was $801,000 in income related to
PNB participations in legacy Vision Bank (“Vision”) assets, compared to
$241,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

The $697,000 increase in interest expense was due to a $1.1 million increase in
interest expense on deposits, offset by a $393,000 decrease in interest expense
on borrowings.

The provision for loan losses of $2.6 million for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2016 represented an improvement of $5.1 million, compared to a provision
of loan losses of $7.7 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.
Refer to the “CREDIT EXPERIENCE: (Recovery of) Provision for Loan Losses”
section for additional details regarding the level of the (recovery of) provision
for loan losses recognized in each period presented above.

Other expense of $177.6 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016
represented an increase of $10.1 million, or 6.0%, compared to $167.5 million
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The $10.1 million increase was
primarily related to a $5.6 million borrowing prepayment penalty in 2016 com-
pared to $532,000 in 2015, a $2.0 million increase in furniture and equipment
expense, a $2.0 million increase in contribution expense, a $1.7 million
increase in professional fees and services, and a $1.0 million increase in non-
loan related losses. Increases were offset by a decrease of $2.1 million related
to employee benefits expense, largely related to a decline in medical expenses.

issued by Park to accredited investors on April 20, 2012. Results for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2014 included, in addition to the items previously
discussed, interest expense related to the $35.25 million of 10% Subordinated
Notes due December 23, 2019 issued by Park to accredited investors on
December 23, 2009. Park paid off the $35.25 million outstanding principal
amount of the 10% Subordinated Notes due December 23, 2019, plus accrued
interest, on December 24, 2014, the earliest redemption date allowable under
the related note purchase agreement dated December 23, 2009.

Other income of $955,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 repre-
sented an increase of $442,000, or 86.2%, compared to $513,000 for the same
period in 2015. This increase was due to $461,000 in income from an equity
investment.

SE Property Holdings, LLC (“SEPH”)

The provision for loan losses of $1.9 million for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2016 represented an increase of $472,000, compared to $1.4 million for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. Refer to the “CREDIT EXPERIENCE:
(Recovery of) Provision for Loan Losses” section for additional information
regarding Guardian’s loan portfolio and the level of (recovery of) provision 
for loan losses recognized in each period presented.

The table below reflects SEPH’s net income (loss) for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014. SEPH holds the remaining assets and
 liabilities retained by Vision subsequent to the sale of the Vision business on
February 16, 2012. Prior to holding the remaining Vision assets, SEPH held
OREO assets that were transferred from Vision to SEPH. This segment repre-
sents a run-off portfolio of the legacy Vision assets.

Other expense of $4.5 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016
 represented a $1.5 million increase, compared to $3.0 million for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2015. This increase was primarily related to the
 evaluation of litigation accruals.

Net interest income increased to $4.8 million for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2016 from net interest expense of $74,000 for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2015. The increase was largely the result of payments
received from certain SEPH impaired loan relationships.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, SEPH had net recoveries of loan
losses of $9.6 million. The net recoveries during 2016 consisted of $447,000 in
charge-offs offset by recoveries from loans previously charged off of $10.0
million.

The $1.1 million increase in other income for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2016, compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, was primarily
the result of the recovery of fees from certain SEPH impaired loan relationships.

The $1.1 million increase in other expense for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2016, compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, was primarily
the result of a $1.0 million decrease in expense related to reserves established
for potential mortgage loan repurchases, offset by increases in legal fees of
$390,000 and management and consulting services of $2.1 million.

In the aggregate, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, SEPH realized
$18.0 million in operating income items, consisting of interest income, recover-
ies from loans previously charged off, and other income, offset by operating
expense items totaling $7.9 million, consisting of interest expense and other
expense.

Legacy Vision assets at SEPH totaled $20.3 million as of December 31, 2016
compared to $26.3 million as of December 31, 2015. In addition to these 
SEPH assets, PNB participations in legacy Vision assets totaled $9.6 million 
at December 31, 2016 compared to $9.8 million at December 31, 2015.

DIVIDENDS ON COMMON SHARES
Cash dividends declared on Park’s common shares were $3.76 in 2016, 2015
and 2014. The quarterly cash dividend on Park’s common shares was $0.94
per share for each quarter of 2016, 2015 and 2014.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation 
of Park’s consolidated financial statements are listed in Note 1 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.  The accounting and reporting policies of
Park conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) 
and general practices within the financial services industry.  The preparation 
of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and the accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”): The determination of 
the ALLL involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity than Park’s other
significant accounting policies. The ALLL is calculated with the objective of
maintaining a reserve level believed by management to be sufficient to absorb
probable, incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. Management’s  determi -
nation of the adequacy of the ALLL is based on periodic evaluations of the loan
portfolio and of current economic conditions. However, this evaluation is
 inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including expected
default probabilities, the loss given default, the amounts and timing of expected
future cash flows on impaired loans, and estimated losses based on historical
loss experience and current economic conditions. All of these factors may be
susceptible to significant change. To the extent that actual results differ from
management estimates, additional loan loss provisions may be required that
would adversely impact earnings for future periods.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”): OREO, property acquired through
foreclosure, is recorded at estimated fair value less anticipated selling costs
(net realizable value). If the net realizable value is below the carrying value 
of the loan on the date of transfer of the OREO, the difference is charged off
against the ALLL. Subsequent declines in value (OREO devaluations) are
reported as adjustments to the carrying amount of OREO and are expensed
within other income. Gains or losses not previously recognized, resulting from
the sale of OREO, are recognized within other income on the date of sale. 
At December 31, 2016, OREO totaled $13.9 million, a decrease of 25.3%,
 compared to $18.7 million at December 31, 2015.

Fair Value: In accordance with GAAP, management utilizes the fair value
 hierarchy, which has the objective of maximizing the use of observable market
inputs. The accounting guidance also requires disclosures regarding the inputs
used to calculate fair value. These inputs are classified as Level 1, 2, and 3.
Level 3 inputs are those with significant unobservable inputs that reflect a
company’s own assumptions about the market for a particular instrument.

30

Some of the inputs could be based on internal models and/or cash flow
 analyses. The large majority of Park’s financial assets valued using Level 2
inputs consist of available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities. The fair value of these
AFS securities is obtained largely by the use of matrix pricing, which is a mathe-
matical technique widely used in the financial services industry to value debt
securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific
securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other bench-
mark quoted securities.

Goodwill: The accounting for goodwill also involves a higher degree of
 judgment than most other significant accounting policies. GAAP establishes
standards for the impairment assessment of goodwill. Goodwill arising from
business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable
 intangible assets in the business acquired. Park’s goodwill relates to the value
inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of
PNB, Park’s national bank subsidiary, to provide quality, cost-effective banking
services in a competitive marketplace. The goodwill value is supported by
revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted. A decrease
in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base, the inability to deliver
cost-effective services over sustained periods or significant credit problems can 
lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future
periods. Under GAAP, goodwill is no longer amortized but is subject to an
annual evaluation for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired by assessing qualitative
factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a
reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If after assessing these events 
or circumstances, it is concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair
value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the performance
of the second step of the impairment test is required. If the carrying amount of
the goodwill exceeds the fair value, an impairment charge must be recorded in
an amount equal to the excess. At December 31, 2016, on a consolidated basis,
Park had $72.3 million of goodwill, all of which is recorded at PNB.

Pension Plan: The determination of pension plan obligations and related
expenses requires the use of assumptions to estimate the amount of benefits
that employees earn while working, as well as the present value of those bene-
fits. Annual pension expense is principally based on four components: (1) the
value of benefits earned by employees for working during the year (service
cost), (2) the increase in the liability due to the passage of time (interest cost),
and (3) other gains and losses, reduced by (4) the expected return on plan
assets for our pension plan.

Significant assumptions used to measure our annual pension expense include:

(cid:0) the interest rate used to determine the present value of liabilities

 (discount rate);

(cid:0) certain employee-related factors, such as turnover, retirement age 

and mortality;

(cid:0) the expected return on assets in our funded plans; and
(cid:0) the rate of salary increases

Our assumptions reflect our historical experience and management’s best
 judgment regarding future expectations. Due to the significant management
judgment involved, our assumptions could have a material impact on the
 measurement of our pension plan expense and obligation.

ABOUT OUR BUSINESS
Through our Ohio-based banking divisions, Park is engaged in the commercial
banking and trust business, generally in small to medium population Ohio
 communities. Management believes there are a significant number of con-
sumers and businesses which seek long-term relationships with community-
based financial institutions of quality and strength. While not engaging in
 activities such as foreign lending, nationally syndicated loans or investment
banking, Park attempts to meet the needs of our customers for commercial,
real estate and consumer loans, and investment, fiduciary and deposit services.

Park’s subsidiaries compete for deposits and loans with other banks, 
savings associations, credit unions and other types of financial institutions. 
At December 31, 2016, Park operated 117 financial service offices (including
those of PNB, Scope Leasing, Inc. (“Scope Aircraft Finance”), and GFSC) and 
a network of 138 automated teller machines in 29 Ohio counties. Park also
operated one office for SEPH, located in Newark, Ohio.

A summary of average loans and average deposits for Park’s subsidiaries,
including its bank subsidiary, PNB, and PNB’s divisions and subsidiary Scope
Aircraft Finance for 2016, 2015 and 2014 is shown in Table 10. See Note 27 
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional financial infor-
mation for the Corporation’s operating segments. Please note that the financial
statements for the divisions of PNB are not prepared on a separate basis and,
therefore, net income is not included in the summary financial data in Table 10.

Short-Term Borrowings: Short-term borrowings consist of securities sold
under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, Federal
Funds purchased and other borrowings. These funds are used to manage the
Corporation’s liquidity needs and interest rate sensitivity risk. The average rate
paid on short-term borrowings generally moves closely with changes in market
interest rates for short-term investments. The average rate paid on short-term
borrowings was 0.19% in 2016, compared to 0.18% in 2015, and 0.20% in
2014. The year-end balance for short-term borrowings was $395 million at
December 31, 2016, compared to $394 million at December 31, 2015, and
$277 million at December 31, 2014.

Long-Term Debt: Long-term debt primarily consists of borrowings from the
Federal Home Loan Bank and repurchase agreements with investment banking
firms. The average balance of long-term debt and the average cost of long-term
debt include the subordinated notes discussed in the following section. In 2016,
average long-term debt was $776 million, compared to $793 million in 2015,
and $868 million in 2014. The average interest rate paid on long-term debt was
3.13% for 2016, compared to 3.10% for 2015, and 3.29% for 2014. Average
total debt (long-term and short-term) was $1,017 million in 2016, compared
to $1,052 million in 2015, and $1,131 million in 2014. Average total debt
decreased by $35 million or 3.3% in 2016 compared to 2015, and decreased
by $79 million or 7.0% in 2015 compared to 2014. Average long-term debt was
76% of average total debt in 2016, compared to 75% of average total debt in
2015, and 77% of average total debt in 2014.

Subordinated Notes: Park assumed, with the 2007 acquisition of Vision’s
parent holding company, $15.5 million of floating rate junior subordinated
notes. The $15.5 million of junior subordinated notes were purchased by 
Vision Bancshares Trust I (“Trust I”) following the issuance of Trust I’s $15.0
million of floating rate preferred securities. The interest rate on these junior
subordinated notes adjusts every quarter at 148 basis points above the three-
month LIBOR interest rate. The maturity date for the junior subordinated notes
is December 30, 2035 and the junior subordinated notes may be prepaid after
December 30, 2010. These junior subordinated notes qualify as Tier 1 capital
under current Federal Reserve Board guidelines.

On December 23, 2009, Park issued an aggregate principal amount of $35.25
million of subordinated notes to 38 purchasers.  These subordinated notes 
had a fixed annual interest rate of 10% with quarterly interest payments. The
maturity date of these subordinated notes was December 23, 2019 and the
 subordinated notes were eligible to be prepaid after December 23, 2014. The
subordinated notes qualified as Tier 2 capital under applicable Federal Reserve
Board guidelines. Each subordinated note was purchased at a purchase price 
of 100% of the principal amount by an accredited investor. Park paid in full 
the $35.25 million outstanding principal amount, plus accrued interest, on
December 24, 2014, the earliest redemption date allowable under the related
note purchase agreement.

M A N A G E M E N T ’ S   D I S C U S S I O N   &   A N A L Y S I S

On April 20, 2012, Park issued an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million
of subordinated notes to 56 purchasers.  These subordinated notes have a fixed
annual interest rate of 7% with quarterly interest payments. The maturity date 
of these subordinated notes is April 20, 2022 and the subordinated notes are
eligible to be prepaid after April 20, 2017. The subordinated notes qualify as
Tier 2 capital under applicable Federal Reserve Board guidelines. Each  sub -
ordinated note was purchased at a purchase price of 100% of the principal
amount by an accredited investor.

See Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional
information about the subordinated notes.

Shareholders’ Equity: The ratio of total shareholders’ equity to total assets
was 9.94% at December 31, 2016, compared to 9.76% at December 31, 2015
and 9.95% at December 31, 2014. The ratio of tangible shareholders’ equity
 [share holders’ equity ($742.2 million) less goodwill ($72.3 million)] to
 tangible assets [total assets ($7,468 million) less goodwill ($72.3 million)]
was 9.06% at December 31, 2016, compared to 8.86% at December 31, 
2015, and 9.04% at December 31, 2014.

In accordance with GAAP, Park reflects any unrealized holding gain or loss 
on AFS securities or change in the funded status of Park’s pension plan, net 
of income taxes, as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) which 
is part of Park’s shareholders’ equity.

The unrealized net holding loss, net of income taxes, on AFS securities was $3.0
million at year-end 2016, compared to the unrealized net holding loss, net of
income taxes, of $292,000 at year-end 2015, and compared to the unrealized
net holding gain, net of income taxes, of $1.3 million at year-end 2014.

In accordance with GAAP, Park adjusts accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss) to recognize the net actuarial gain or loss reflected in the 
funding status of Park’s pension plan.  See Note 18 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for information on the accounting for Park’s pension plan.
Pertaining to the funding status of the pension plan, Park recognized a net
 comprehensive gain of $0.6 million in 2016, a net comprehensive loss of $0.5
million in 2015, and a net comprehensive loss of $9.3 million in 2014. The 
net comprehensive gain in 2016 was due to changes in actuarial assumptions
combined with increased investment returns on pension plan assets. The net
comprehensive loss in 2015 was due to changes in actuarial assumptions
 combined with lower investment returns on pension plan assets. The net com-
prehensive loss in 2014 was due to changes in actuarial assumptions, primarily
a decrease in the discount rate from 5.30% at December 31, 2013 to 4.42% at
December 31, 2014. The actuarial loss more than offset the positive investment
returns with respect to the pension plan’s assets in 2014. 

At year-end 2016, the balance in accumulated other comprehensive loss per-
taining to the pension plan was $(14.7) million, compared to $(15.4) million
at December 31, 2015, and $(14.9) million at December 31, 2014.

INVESTMENT OF FUNDS
Loans: Average loans were $5,123 million in 2016, compared to $4,910
million in 2015, and $4,717 million in 2014. The actual yield on average loan
balances was 4.74% in 2016, compared to 4.66% in 2015, and 4.84% in 2014.
Approximately 50% of Park’s loan balances mature or reprice within one year
(see Table 35). The actual yield on average loan balances for each quarter 
of 2016 was 4.87% for the fourth quarter, 4.66% for the third quarter, 4.64% 
for the second quarter and 4.80% for the first quarter.

Loan interest income for 2016 included $5.1 million related to payments
received on certain SEPH impaired loan relationships, some of which are
 participated with PNB. Excluding this income, the actual yield on average loan
balances was 4.64% for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 4.62% for the
fourth quarter, 4.66% for the third quarter, 4.64% for the second quarter and
4.67% for the first quarter.

32

At December 31, 2016, loan balances were $5,272 million, compared to
$5,068 million at year-end 2015, an increase of $204 million or 4.0%. The 
loan growth of $204 million in 2016 was largely due to increases in loans 
of $206 million at PNB, offset by declines at GFSC and SEPH.

Loan growth was experienced within the commercial, financial and agricultural,
construction real estate, commercial real estate, and consumer loan types in
2016.

On a combined basis, year-end commercial, financial and agricultural loans,
construction real estate loans and commercial real estate loans increased by
$97 million, or 4.3% in 2016 and increased by $161 million or 7.7% in 2015.
The increase in 2016 was due to increases in commercial real estate loans of
$42.1 million, in commercial, financial and agricultural loans of $38.9 million,
and in construction real estate loans of $15.6 million. The increase in 2015 
was due to increases in commercial, financial and agricultural loans of $99.2
million, in commercial real estate loans of $44.0 million, and in construction
real estate loans of $17.5 million.

Consumer loans increased by $154 million or 15.9% in 2016 and increased by
$74 million or 8.3% in 2015. The increase in consumer loans in each of 2016
and 2015 was primarily due to an increase in automobile lending in Ohio.

The long-term, fixed-rate residential mortgage loans that Park originates are
generally sold in the secondary market and Park typically retains servicing on
these loans. The balance of sold fixed-rate residential mortgage loans, in which
Park has maintained the servicing rights, was $1,330 million at year-end 2016,
compared to $1,276 million at year-end 2015 and $1,265 million at year-end
2014.

Investment Securities: Park’s investment securities portfolio is structured 
to minimize credit risk, provide liquidity and contribute to earnings. As  con -
ditions change over time, Park’s overall interest rate risk, liquidity needs and
potential return on the investment portfolio will change. Management regularly
evaluates the securities in the investment portfolio as circumstances evolve.
Circumstances that could result in the sale of a security include: to better
manage interest rate risk; to meet liquidity needs; or to improve the overall
yield in the investment portfolio.

Park classifies the majority of its securities as AFS (see Note 4 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements). These securities are carried on the books
at their estimated fair value with the unrealized holding gain or loss, net of
federal income taxes, accounted for as accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss). The securities that are classified as AFS are free to be sold 
in future periods in carrying out Park’s investment strategies.

Park classifies certain types of U.S. Government sponsored entity collateralized
mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) that it purchases as Held-To-Maturity (“HTM”).
In addition, starting in 2015, Park began to purchase tax-exempt municipal
securities, also classified as HTM. These securities are classified as HTM
because they are generally not as liquid as the investment securities that Park
classifies as AFS. A classification of HTM means that Park has the positive intent
and the ability to hold these securities until maturity. At year-end 2016, Park’s
HTM securities portfolio was $260 million, compared to $149 million at year-
end 2015, and $141 million at year-end 2014. Included in the HTM securities
portfolio as of December 31, 2016 are $189 million of tax-exempt municipal
securities. All of the CMOs, mortgage-backed securities, and callable notes in
Park’s investment portfolio were issued by U.S. Government sponsored entities.

Average taxable investment securities were $1,413 million in 2016, compared
to $1,472 million in 2015, and $1,433 million in 2014. The average yield 
on taxable investment securities was 2.17% in 2016, compared to 2.45% in
2015, and 2.58% in 2014. Average tax-exempt investment securities were 
$91 million in 2016, compared to $6 million in 2015, and $65,000 in 2014.
The average tax-equivalent yield on tax-exempt investment securities 
was 4.43% in 2016, compared to 4.72% in 2015, and 6.97% in 2014.

Total investment securities (at amortized cost) were $1,584 million at
December 31, 2016, compared to $1,644 million at December 31, 2015, and
$1,499 million at December 31, 2014.  Management purchased investment
securities totaling $724 million in 2016, $506 million in 2015, and $352
million in 2014. Proceeds from repayments and maturities of investment
 securities were $783 million in 2016, $357 million in 2015, and $140 
million in 2014.

Proceeds from sales of investment securities were $3.1 million in 2015. These
investment securities had a book value of $3.1 million and resulted in a gain 
on sale of $88,000. Proceeds from sales of investment securities were $173.1
million in 2014. Of the investment securities sold in 2014, a small portion 
with a book value of $187,000 was sold for a gain of $22,000. The remaining
investment securities sold in 2014, with a book value of $174.1 million, were
sold at a loss of $1.2 million. There were no sales of investment securities in
2016.

At year-end 2016, 2015, and 2014, the average tax-equivalent yield on the 
total investment portfolio was 2.30%, 2.28%, and 2.47%, respectively. The
weighted average remaining maturity of the total investment portfolio was 
4.4 years at December 31, 2016, 4.8 years at December 31, 2015, and 5.2
years at December 31, 2014. Obligations of the U.S. Treasury and other U.S.
Government sponsored entities and U.S. Government sponsored entities’ asset-
backed securities were approximately 83.9% of the total investment portfolio 
at year-end 2016, approximately 93.3% of the total investment portfolio at year-
end 2015, and approximately 96.0% of the total investment portfolio at year-end
2014.

The average maturity of the investment portfolio would lengthen if long-term
interest rates were to increase as principal repayments from mortgage-backed
securities and CMOs would decline and callable U.S. Government sponsored
entity notes would extend to their maturity dates. At year-end 2016, manage-
ment estimated that the average maturity of the investment portfolio would
lengthen to 5.1 years with a 100 basis point increase in long-term interest 
rates and to 5.4 years with a 200 basis point increase in long-term interest
rates.  Likewise, the average maturity of the investment portfolio would shorten
if long-term interest rates were to decrease as the principal repayments from
mortgage-backed securities and CMOs would increase as borrowers would
 refinance their mortgage loans and the callable U.S. Government sponsored
entity notes would shorten to their call dates.  At year-end 2016, management
estimated that the average maturity of the investment portfolio would decrease
to 3.4 years with a 100 basis point decrease in long-term interest rates and to
2.8 years with a 200 basis point decrease in long-term interest rates.

ANALYSIS OF EARNINGS
Net Interest Income: Park’s principal source of earnings is net interest
income, the difference between total interest income and total interest expense.
Net interest income results from average balances outstanding for interest
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in conjunction with the average
rates earned and paid on them. (See Table 16 for three years of history on the
average balances of the balance sheet categories as well as the average rates
earned on interest earning assets and the average rates paid on interest bearing
liabilities.)

Average interest earning assets for 2016 increased by $95 million, or 1.4%, 
to $6,826 million, compared to $6,731 million for 2015. Average interest
earning assets of $6,731 million for 2015 represented an increase of $376
million, or 5.9%, compared to $6,355 for 2014. The average yield on interest
earning assets increased by 13 basis points to 4.08% for 2016,  compared to
3.95% for 2015. The average yield on interest earning assets of 3.95% for 2015 
represented a decrease of 24 basis points compared to 4.19% for 2014.

Interest income for 2016 included $5.1 million related to payments received on
certain SEPH impaired loan relationships, some of which are participated with
PNB. Excluding this income, the yield on loans was 4.64%, the yield on interest
earning assets was 4.01%, and the net interest margin was 3.45%.

Income from fiduciary activities increased by $1.2 million, or 6.0%, to $21.4
million in 2016, compared to $20.2 million in 2015. The $20.2 million in 
2015 was an increase of $1.0 million, or 5.5%, compared to $19.2 million in
2014. The increases in fiduciary fee income in 2016 and 2015 were primarily
due to improvements in the equity markets and also due to an increase in the
total account balances serviced by PNB’s Trust Department.  PNB charges
 fiduciary fees largely based on the market value of the assets being managed.
The average market value of the trust assets managed by PNB was $4.56 billion
in 2016, compared to $4.38 billion in 2015, and $4.26 billion in 2014.

Service charges on deposit accounts decreased by $492,000, or 3.3%, to 
$14.3 million in 2016, compared to $14.8 million in 2015. The $14.8 million
in 2015 was a decrease of $672,000, or 4.4%, compared to $15.4 million 
in 2014. The declines in 2016 and 2015 were related to declines in service
charges on deposits within Park’s Ohio-based operations, largely as a result 
of a decline in fee income from overdraft charges and other non-sufficient
funds (NSF) charges. Park’s customers did not use our courtesy overdraft
program as frequently in 2015 and 2016.

Fee income earned from the origination and sale into the secondary market of
long-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans is included within “Other service income.”
Other service income increased by $3.0 million, or 26.1%, to $14.4 million 
in 2016, compared to $11.4 million in 2015. The $11.4 million in 2015 was 
an increase of $979,000, or 9.4%, compared to $10.5 million in 2014. The
increase at PNB during 2016 and 2015 was primarily due to a corresponding
increase in the amount of mortgage loans originated for sale in the secondary
market which increased by $66.9 million for 2016 compared to 2015 and
$84.7 million for 2015 compared to 2014. The $1.4 million increase in other
service income at SEPH for 2016 compared to 2015 was primarily the result 
of the recovery of fees from certain SEPH impaired loan relationships

Gain on the sale of commercial loans held for sale was $756,000 for 2015. 
This was related to certain commercial loans, which had a book balance of
$144,000, that were sold in the first quarter of 2015. Gain on sale of commer-
cial loans held for sale was $1.9 million in 2014. PNB sold $12.7 million of
commercial loans held for sale in 2014, which resulted in a $328,000 loss on
sale. SEPH sold $6.4 million of commercial loans held for sale in 2014, which
resulted in a $2.2 million gain on sale. No commercial loans held for sale were
sold in 2016.

Other miscellaneous income decreased by $1.3 million, or 16.9%, to $6.3
million in 2016, compared to $7.5 million in 2015. Other miscellaneous
income increased by $1.7 million, or 29.7%, to $7.5 million in 2015, com-
pared to $5.8 million in 2014. The decrease in 2016, compared to 2015, was
related to a $329,000 decrease in brokerage income and a $805,000 decline 
in income from the operation of OREO properties, and a $711,000 decrease 
in gains from the sale of repossessed and other assets. These decreases 
were offset by $461,000 in income from an equity investment during 2016. 
The increase in 2015, compared to 2014, was primarily due to a $1.2 million
increase in income from the operation of OREO properties and a $468,000
increase in gains from the sale of assets.

Other Expense: Other expense was $199.0 million in 2016, compared to
$186.6 million in 2015, and $187.5 million in 2014.  Other expense increased
by $12.4 million, or 6.6%, in 2016, and decreased by $896,000, or 0.5% in
2015. The following table displays total other expense for Park for 2016, 2015

Checkcard fee income, which is generated from debit card transactions,
increased $496,000, or 3.4%, to $15.1 million in 2016, compared to $14.6
million in 2015. The $14.6 million in 2015 was an increase of $991,000, or
7.3%, compared to $13.6 million in 2014. The increases in 2016 and 2015
were attributable to continued increases in the volume of debit card  trans -
actions. Debit card transactions for 2016 were 30.6 million compared to 
29.9 million for 2015 and 28.4 million for 2014.

Bank owned life insurance income decreased by $1.4 million, or 25%, to $4.3
million in 2016, compared to $5.8 million in 2015. Bank owned life insurance
income increased by $922,000, or 19.0%, to $5.8 million in 2015, compared
to $4.9 million in 2014. The decrease of $1.4 million from 2015 to 2016 and
the increase of $922,000 from 2014 to 2015 was primarily related to fluctua-
tions in income from death benefits paid on policies. Park recorded $40,000 
of income from death benefits paid on policies during 2016 compared to 
$1.3 million of income from death benefits paid on policies during 2015, 
and $383,000 of income from death benefits paid on policies in 2014.

Gain on the sale of OREO, net, totaled $1.3 million in 2016, a decrease of
$281,000, compared to $1.6 million in 2015. The $1.6 million in 2015 was 
a decrease of $3.9 million, compared to $5.5 million in 2014. The table below

(1) The gain on sale amounts above exclude any deferred gain on sale.

OREO assets, property acquired through foreclosure, are initially recorded at
fair value less anticipated selling costs (net realizable value), establishing a new
cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at the lower of cost or
fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent changes in the value of real estate are
classified as OREO valuation adjustments. OREO valuation adjustments totaled
$601,000 in 2016, a decrease of $991,000, or 62.2%, compared to $1.6
million in 2015. The $1.6 million in 2015 was a decrease of $814,000, 
or 33.8%, compared to $2.4 million in 2014.

Of the $601,000 in OREO valuation adjustments in 2016, $582,000 were
related to valuation adjustments at PNB, of the $1.6 million in OREO valuation
adjustments in 2015, $1.2 million were related to valuation adjustments at PNB,
and of the $2.4 million in OREO valuation adjustment in 2014, $1.6 million
were related to PNB. The decline in OREO valuation adjustments is consistent
with the trend of lower OREO balances across the Park organization, which
totaled $13.9 million, $18.7 million, and $22.6 million at December 31, 2016,
2015 and 2014, respectively.

Salaries expense increased $845,000, or 1.0%, to $87.0 million in 2016, 
and increased by $4.2 million, or 5.1%, to $86.2 million in 2015. The 
increase in 2016 was primarily due to an increase of $1.0 million in share-
based compensation expense related to the Park 2013 Long-Term Incentive
Plan (the “2013 Incentive Plan”) offset by a $374,000 decrease in incentive
compensation. The increase in 2015 was due to an increase in salaries of $2.9
million, an increase in incentive compensation of $937,000, and an increase 
in share-based compensation expense related to the Park 2013 Incentive Plan
of $407,000 compared to 2014. Park had 1,726 full-time equivalent employees
at year-end 2016, compared to 1,798 full-time equivalent employees at year-end
2015, and 1,801 full-time equivalent employees at year-end 2014.

Employee benefits expense decreased $2.0 million, or 9.6%, to $19.3 million 
in 2016, and increased by $1.3 million, or 6.5%, to $21.3 million in 2015. 
The decrease in 2016 was due to a $3.9 million decrease in group insurance
costs, offset by a $1.1 million increase in other employee benefits. The increase
in 2015 was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in pension and salary
deferral plan expense, compared to 2014.

Professional fees and services increased $3.7 million, or 15.9%, to $27.2
million in 2016, compared to $23.5 million in 2015. The $23.5 million in 
2015 was a decrease of $6.1 million, or 20.7%, compared to $29.6 million in
2014. This subcategory of total other expense includes legal fees, management
consulting fees, director fees, audit fees, regulatory examination fees and mem-
berships in industry associations. The increase in professional fees and services
expense in 2016 was primarily due to an increase in consulting fees at SEPH
and increases in third-party credit related expense at PNB. The decrease in
 professional fees and services expense in 2015 was largely related to declines 
in legal expenses associated with PNB participations in Vision loans and other
loan relationships at SEPH.

Furniture and equipment expense increased $2.0 million, or 16.6%, to $13.8
million in 2016, compared to $11.8 million in 2015. The increase in furniture
and equipment expense in 2016 was primarily due to a $1.0 million increase 
in depreciation expense and a $1.0 million increase in maintenance expense.

OREO expense declined $425,000, or 29.4%, to $1.0 million in 2016,
 compared to $1.4 million in 2015. The $1.4 million in 2015 was a decline 
of $617,000, or 29.9%, compared to $2.1 million in 2014. The decline in
OREO expense was consistent with the trend of lower OREO balances across 
the Park organization, which totaled $13.9 million, $18.7 million, and $22.6
million at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Borrowing prepayment penalties increased by $5.0 million, to $5.6 million in
2016, compared to $532,000 in 2015. During 2016, Park prepaid $50 million
of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances, incurring a $5.6 million pre-
payment penalty. These advances had an interest rate of 3.15% and a maturity
date of November 13, 2023.

The subcategory “Miscellaneous” other expense includes expenses for 
supplies, travel, charitable contributions, and other miscellaneous expense. 
The subcategory miscellaneous other expense increased by $1.6 million, or
18.1%, to $10.5 million in 2016, compared to $8.9 million in 2015. The $8.9
million in 2015 was a decrease of $1.1 million, or 11.0%, compared to $10.0
million in 2014. The $1.6 million increase in 2016 was primarily due to a 
$1.7 million increase in accruals due to the ongoing evaluation of litigation 
and other proceedings impacting the GFSC subsidiary and the Parent Company,
a $2.0 million increase in contribution expense and an $883,000 increase in
fraud losses, offset by a reduction in expenses as $0.6 million was recognized 
in 2015 related to a contract termination fee, a $1.0 million reduction in
expense related to reserves established for potential mortgage loan repur-
chases, and a decrease of $996,000 related to the amortization of historic 
tax credits.

The $1.1 million decrease in 2015 was primarily due to a $1.5 million decrease
in contribution expense, a $1.0 million decrease in expense due to the ongoing
evaluation of litigation and other proceedings impacting the GFSC subsidiary,
and a decrease of $1.3 million due to a reduction in contract termination fees,
offset by a $1.2 million increase related to reserves established for potential
mortgage loan repurchases and a $996,000 increase related to the amortization
of historic tax credits.

Income Taxes: Federal income tax expense was $36.8 million in 2016, com-
pared to $32.6 million in 2015, and $36.5 million in 2014.  Federal income tax
expense as a percentage of income before taxes was 29.9% in 2016, 28.7% in
2015, and 30.3% in 2014.  The difference between the statutory federal income
tax rate of 35% and Park’s effective tax rate reflects permanent tax differences,
primarily consisting of tax-exempt interest income from municipal investments
and loans, qualified affordable housing and historical tax credits, bank owned
life insurance income, and dividends paid on common shares held within
Park’s salary deferral plan. Park’s permanent tax differences for 2016 were
approximately $6.3 million compared to $7.2 million for 2015.

CREDIT EXPERIENCE
(Recovery of) Provision for Loan Losses: The (recovery of) provision for
loan losses is the amount added to the allowance for loan losses to ensure the
allowance is sufficient to absorb probable, incurred credit losses. The amount
of the (recovery of) provision for loan losses is determined by management
after reviewing the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, historic and 
current loan loss experience and current economic conditions.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, gross income of $6.8 million would
have been recognized on loans that were nonaccrual as of December 31, 2016
had these loans been current in accordance with their original terms. Interest
income on nonaccrual loans may be recorded on a cash basis and be included
in earnings only when Park expects to receive the entire recorded investment of
the loan. Of the $6.8 million that would have been recognized, approximately
$6.0 million was included in interest income for the year ended December 31,
2016.

Park’s Ohio-based subsidiaries, PNB and GFSC, are the only subsidiaries that
carry an ALLL balance. The table below provides additional information on the

At year-end 2016, the allowance for loan losses was $50.6 million, or 0.96% 
of total loans outstanding, compared to $56.5 million, or 1.11% of total loans
outstanding at year-end 2015, and $54.4 million, or 1.13% of total loans out-
standing at year-end 2014. The table below provides additional information
related to specific reserves on impaired commercial loans and general reserves
for all other loans in Park’s portfolio at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Specific reserves decreased $3.6 million to $548,000 at December 31, 2016,
compared to $4.2 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease is largely due to
the fourth quarter 2016 charge-off of $3.1 million in specific reserves. General
reserves decreased $2.2 million, or 4.3%, to $50.1 million at December 31,
2016, compared to $52.3 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease in
general reserves was due to the ongoing evaluation of the required allowance
for loan losses to cover probable incurred losses in the Park loan portfolio.

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at year-end 2016 
is  adequate to absorb probable, incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. 
See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the discussion
under the heading “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES” earlier in this
Management’s Discussion and Analysis for additional information on
 management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

Nonperforming Assets: Nonperforming loans include: 1) loans whose
 interest is accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; 2) troubled debt restructurings
(TDRs) on accrual status; and 3) loans which are contractually past due 90
days or more as to principal or interest payments, where interest continues 
to accrue. Park’s management continues to evaluate TDRs to determine those
that may be appropriate to return to accrual status. Specifically, if the restruc-
tured note has been current for a period of at least six months and management
expects the borrower will remain current throughout the renegotiated contract,
the loan may be returned to accrual status. Nonperforming assets include non-
performing loans and OREO. OREO results from taking possession of property
that served as collateral for a defaulted loan.

Generally, management obtains updated appraisal information for  non -
performing loans and OREO annually. As new appraisal information is 
received, management performs an evaluation of the appraisal and applies 
a discount for anticipated disposition costs to determine the net realizable 
value of the collateral, which is compared to the outstanding principal balance
to determine if additional write-downs are necessary.

The following is a summary of Park’s nonaccrual loans, accruing TDRs, loans
past due 90 days or more and still accruing, and OREO for the last five years:

Includes PNB participations in loans originated by Vision and related OREO totaling $9.6
 million, $9.8 million, $11.5 million, $12.3 million, and $19.0 million for the years ended
 December 31, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Park’s allowance for loan losses includes an allocation for loans specifically
identified as impaired under GAAP. At December 31, 2016, loans considered 
to be impaired consisted substantially of commercial loans graded as  “sub -
standard” or “doubtful” and placed on non-accrual status.  Specific reserves 
on impaired commercial loans are typically based on management’s best esti-
mate of the fair value of collateral securing these loans. The amount ultimately
charged off for these loans may be different from the specific reserve as the
 ultimate liquidation of the collateral may be for amounts different from
 management’s estimates.

When determining the quarterly and annual loan loss provision, Park 
reviews the grades of commercial loans. These loans are graded from 1 to 8. 
A grade of 1 indicates little or no credit risk and a grade of 8 is considered a
loss. Commercial loans that are pass-rated are considered to be of acceptable
credit risk. Commercial loans graded a 5 (special mention) are considered to
be watch list credits and a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated to
these loans. Commercial loans graded a 6 (substandard), also considered
watch list credits, are considered to represent higher credit risk and, as 
a result, a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated to these loans.
Generally,  commercial loans that are graded a 6 are considered for partial
charge-off or have been charged down to the net realizable value of the
 underlying  collateral. Commercial loans graded a 7 (doubtful) are shown 
as nonperforming and Park charges these loans down to their fair value by 
taking a partial charge-off or recording a specific reserve. Any commercial 
loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged off.

The following table highlights the credit trends within the commercial loan
portfolio of Park’s Ohio-based operations.

Delinquencies have remained low for Park’s Ohio-based operations over the
past 24 months. Delinquent and accruing loans were $27.8 million, or 0.53%
of total loans at December 31, 2016, compared to $25.7 million, or 0.51% of
total loans at December 31, 2015 and $33.0 million, or 0.69% of total loans 
at December 31, 2014.

Impaired commercial loans for Park’s Ohio-based operations were $58.7
million at December 31, 2016, a decrease of $7.6 million, compared to $66.2
million as of December 31, 2015. The $58.7 million of impaired commercial
loans at December 31, 2016 included $6.4 million of loans modified in a
 troubled debt restructuring which are currently on accrual status and  per -
forming in accordance with the restructured terms, down from $12.4 million 
at December 31, 2015. Impaired commercial loans are individually evaluated
for impairment and specific reserves are established to cover any probable,
incurred losses for those loans that have not been charged down to the net
 realizable value of the underlying collateral or to the net present value of
expected cash flows.

Park had $15.1 million of non-impaired commercial loans included on the
watch list at December 31, 2016, compared to $28.5 million of non-impaired
commercial loans at year-end 2015, and $19.5 million of non-impaired com-
mercial loans at year-end 2014. Commercial loans include: (1) commercial,
financial and agricultural loans; (2) commercial real estate loans; (3) certain
real estate construction loans; and (4) certain residential real estate loans.
Park’s watch list includes all criticized and classified commercial loans, defined
by Park as loans rated special mention or worse, less those commercial loans
currently considered to be impaired. As a percentage of year-end total commer-
cial loans, Park’s watch list of potential problem commercial loans was 0.6% in
2016, 1.1% in 2015, and 0.8% in 2014. The existing conditions of these loans
do not warrant classification as nonaccrual. However, these loans have shown
some weakness and management performs additional analyses regarding each
borrower’s ability to comply with payment terms.

As of December 31, 2016, management had taken partial charge-offs of approx-
imately $24.9 million related to the $70.4 million of commercial loans
considered to be impaired, compared to charge-offs of approximately $28.7
million related to the $80.6 million of impaired commercial loans at December
31, 2015.  The table below provides additional information related to Park’s
impaired commercial loans at December 31, 2016, including those impaired
commercial loans at PNB, PNB participations in impaired Vision loans and
those impaired Vision commercial loans retained at SEPH.

Allowance for Loan Losses: Loss factors are reviewed quarterly and updated
at least annually to reflect recent loan loss history and incorporate current risk
and trends which may not be recognized in historical data. Several enhance-
ments were made in the third quarter of 2016 as a result of management’s
quarterly review.

(cid:0) Management updated the historical loss calculation during the third

quarter of 2016, incorporating annualized net charge-offs plus changes 
in specific reserves through September 30, 2016. Additionally, manage-
ment removed from the historical loss calculation net charge-offs plus
changes in specific reserves for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Management’s belief has been that  historical losses should encompass 
the complete economic cycle. However, given the extended length of the
 economic recovery, management determined that 2009 loss data was 

PNC_AR2016_K+PMS286_PressFinal.qxp  2/21/17  3:27 PM  Page 22

M A N A G E M E N T ’ S   D I S C U S S I O N   &   A N A L Y S I S

no longer reflective of the current portfolio. Management has taken 
the look-back period into  consideration in the quarterly evaluation 
of environmental loss factors.

(cid:0) As part of the 2016 mid-year historical loss update, management deter-
mined that it was no longer appropriate to more heavily weight those
years with higher losses in the historical loss calculation and applied
equal  per centages to each of the years in this calculation. The trends that
existed resulting in management applying different weightings to the years
within the historical loss calculation no longer appeared to exist, resulting
in the adjustment back to equal weightings.

(cid:0) As part of the normal quarterly process, management reviewed and
updated the environmental loss factors applied to the commercial
 portfolio in order to incorporate changes in the macroeconomic
 environment. Additionally,  management updated the calculation 
of the loss emergence period utilizing a more granular process.

The impact of the changes described above resulted in a decrease of $3.8
million in the ALLL at September 30, 2016, compared to what the ALLL would
have been had the calculation, and related assumptions, used at June 30, 2016
remained constant.

The historical loss factors were updated again in the fourth quarter of 2016 
to incorporate losses through December 31, 2016.

A significant portion of Park’s allowance for loan losses is allocated to  com -
mercial loans. “Special mention” loans are loans that have potential weaknesses
that may result in loss exposure to Park. “Substandard” loans are those that
exhibit a well-defined weakness, jeopardizing repayment of the loans, resulting
in a higher probability that Park will suffer a loss on the loans unless the
 weakness is corrected. The allowance for loan losses related to performing
commercial loans was $32.8 million or 1.25% of the outstanding principal
balance of other accruing commercial loans at December 31, 2016. At
December 31, 2016, the coverage level within the commercial loan portfolio
was approximately 3.20 years compared to 2.37 years at December 31, 
2015. Historical loss experience, defined as charge-offs plus changes in 
specific reserves, over the past 84 months for the commercial loan portfolio
was 0.39% for 2016 and 0.53% for 2015. This 84-month loss experience
includes only the performance of the PNB loan portfolio and includes the 
impact of PNB participations in Vision loans.

The overall reserve of 1.25% for other accruing commercial loans breaks down
as follows: pass-rated commercial loans are reserved at 1.24%; special mention
commercial loans are reserved at 3.82%; and substandard commercial loans
are reserved at 12.88%.  The reserve levels for pass-rated, special mention 
and substandard commercial loans in excess of the annualized 84-month loss
experience of 0.39% are due to the following factors which management
reviews on a quarterly or annual basis:

(cid:0) Loss Emergence Period Factor: At least annually, management

 calculates the loss emergence period for each commercial loan segment.
This loss emergence period is calculated based upon the average period
of time it takes from the probable occurrence of a loss event to the credit
being moved to nonaccrual. If the loss emergence period for any commer-
cial loan segment is greater than one year, management applies additional
general reserves to all performing loans within that segment of the com-
mercial loan portfolio. The loss emergence period was last updated in 
the fourth quarter of 2016.

(cid:0) Loss Migration Factor: Park’s commercial loans are individually risk
graded. If loan downgrades occur, the probability of default increases,
and accordingly, management allocates a higher percentage reserve to
those accruing commercial loans graded special mention and substan-
dard. Annually, management calculates a loss migration factor for each
commercial loan segment for special mention and substandard credits

based on a review of losses over the period of time a loan takes to migrate
from pass-rated to impaired. The loss migration factor was last updated in
the fourth quarter of 2016.

(cid:0) Environmental Loss Factor: Management has identified certain

 macroeconomic factors that trend in accordance with losses in Park’s
commercial loan portfolio. These macroeconomic factors are reviewed
quarterly and the adjustments made to the environmental loss factor
impacting each segment in the performing commercial loan portfolio
 correlate to changes in the macroeconomic environment.

Generally, consumer loans are not individually graded. Consumer loans include:
(1) mortgage and installment loans included in the construction real estate
segment of the loan portfolio; (2) mortgage, home equity lines of credit
(HELOC), and installment loans included in the residential real estate segment
of the loan portfolio; and (3) all loans included in the consumer segment of the
loan portfolio. The amount of loan loss reserve assigned to these loans is based
on historical loss experience over the past 84 months, through December 31,
2016. Management generally considers a one-year coverage period (the
“Historical Loss Factor”) appropriate because the probable loss on any given
loan in the consumer loan pool should ordinarily become apparent in that time
frame. However, management may incorporate adjustments to the Historical
Loss Factor as circumstances warrant additional reserves (e.g., increased loan
delinquencies, borrower bankruptcy status, improving or deteriorating eco-
nomic conditions, changes in lending management and underwriting standards,
etc.). At December 31, 2016, the coverage level within the consumer loan
 portfolio was approximately 1.95 years compared to 1.99 years at December
31, 2015. Historical loss experience over the past 84 months for the consumer
loan  portfolio was 0.34% for 2016 and 0.42% for 2015.

The judgmental increases discussed above incorporate management’s evalua-
tion of the impact of environmental qualitative factors which pose additional
risks and assignment of a component of the allowance for loan losses in  con -
sideration of these factors. Such environmental factors include: national and
local economic trends and conditions; experience, ability and depth of lending
management and staff; effects of any changes in lending policies and  pro -
cedures; and levels of, and trends in, consumer bankruptcies, delinquencies,
impaired loans, and charge-offs and recoveries. The determination of this
 component of the allowance for loan losses requires considerable management
judgment. Management is working to address weaknesses in those loans that
may result in future loss. Actual loss experience may be more or less than the
amount allocated.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity Management: Park’s objective in
managing our liquidity is to maintain the ability to continuously meet the cash
flow needs of customers, such as borrowings or deposit withdrawals, while at
the same time seeking higher yields from longer-term lending and investing
activities.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.0 million during 2016 to $146.4
million at year end. Cash provided by operating activities was $87.9 million in
2016, $89.2 million in 2015, and $71.7 million in 2014. Net income was the
primary source of cash from operating activities during each year.

Cash used in investing activities was $152.6 million in 2016, $395.5 million 
in 2015, and $229.6 million in 2014. Investment security transactions and 
loan originations/repayments are the major use or source of cash in investing
activities. Proceeds from the sale, repayment or maturity of investment securi-
ties provide cash and purchases of investment securities use cash. Net security
transactions provided cash of $59.7 million in 2016, used cash of $145.2
million in 2015, and used cash of $29.7 million in 2014. Cash used by the 
net increase in the loan  portfolio was $199.5 million in 2016, $247.9 million 
in 2015, and $234.0 million in 2014.

Cash provided by financing activities was $61.7 million in 2016, $218.0 million
in 2015, and $248.5 million in 2014. A major source of cash for financing
activities is the net change in deposits. Deposits increased and provided $174.3
million of cash in 2016, $219.6 million of cash in 2015, and $338.0 million 
of cash in 2014. Of the $338.0 million deposit increase in 2014, $200 million
was related to the settlement of brokered deposits in September 2014. Another
major source of cash for financing activities is short-term borrowings and long-
term debt. In 2016, net long-term borrowings decreased and used $55.6
million in cash. In 2015, net short-term borrowings increased and provided
$117.3 million in cash, and net long-term borrowings decreased and used
$55.1 million in cash. In 2014, net short-term borrowings increased and
 provided $35.0 million in cash, and net long-term borrowings decreased and
used $64.2 million in cash. Finally, cash declined by $57.7 million in 2016,
$57.8 million in 2015, and $57.9 million in 2014, from the payment of cash
 dividends.

Funds are available from a number of sources, including the capital markets,
the investment securities portfolio, the core deposit base, Federal Home Loan
Bank borrowings, the capability to securitize or package loans for sale, and 
a $10.0 million revolving line of credit with another financial institution, which
did not have an outstanding balance as of December 31, 2016. In the opinion 
of Park’s management, the present funding sources provide more than ade-
quate liquidity for Park to meet our cash flow needs.

Investment securities and loans that are subject to prepayment are shown in the table by the
earlier of their re-pricing date or their expected repayment date and not by their contractual
maturity date. Nonaccrual loans of $87.8 million are included within the three-month to 
twelve-month maturity category. 

(2) Management considers interest bearing transaction accounts and savings accounts to be 
core deposits and, therefore, not as rate sensitive as other deposit accounts and borrowed
money. Accordingly, only 51% of interest bearing transaction accounts and 39% of savings
 accounts are considered to re-price within one year. If all of the interest bearing transaction
 accounts and savings accounts were considered to re-price within one year, the one-year
 cumulative gap would change from a positive 2.89% to a negative 20.70%.

The interest rate sensitivity gap analysis provides an overall picture of Park’s
static interest rate risk position. At December 31, 2016, the cumulative interest
earning assets maturing or repricing within twelve months were $2,962 million
compared to the cumulative interest bearing liabilities maturing or repricing
within twelve months of $2,763 million. For the twelve-month cumulative inter-
est rate sensitivity gap position, rate sensitive assets exceeded rate sensitive
liabilities by $199 million or 2.89% of interest earning assets.

A positive twelve-month cumulative rate sensitivity gap (assets exceed liabilities)
would suggest that Park’s net interest margin would increase if interest rates
were to increase. Conversely, a negative twelve-month cumulative rate sensitivity
gap would suggest that Park’s net interest margin would decrease if interest
rates were to increase. However, the usefulness of the interest rate sensitivity
gap analysis as a forecasting tool in projecting net interest income is limited.
The gap analysis does not consider the magnitude, timing or frequency by
which assets or liabilities will reprice during a period and also contains
assumptions as to the repricing of transaction and savings accounts that 
may not prove to be correct.

The cumulative twelve-month interest rate sensitivity gap position at year-end
2015 was a positive $407 million or 6.03% of total interest earning assets. The
percentage of interest earning assets maturing or repricing within one year was
43.0% at year-end 2016, compared to 40.8% at year-end 2015. The percentage
of interest bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within one year was 53.8%
at year-end 2016, compared to 45.8% at year-end 2015.

Management supplements the interest rate sensitivity gap analysis with 
periodic simulations of balance sheet sensitivity under various interest rate and
what-if scenarios to better forecast and manage the net interest margin. Park’s
management uses an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income
sensitivity to movements in interest rates. This model is based on actual cash
flows and repricing characteristics for balance sheet instruments and  incor -
porates market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest
rates on the prepayment rate of certain assets and liabilities. This model also
includes management’s projections for activity levels of various balance sheet
instruments and non-interest fee income and operating expense. Assumptions
based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to
changes in interest rates are also incorporated into this earnings simulation
model. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model
cannot precisely measure net interest income and net income. Actual results
will differ from simulated results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of
interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management
strategies.

Management uses a 50 basis point change in market interest rates per quarter
for a total of 200 basis points per year in evaluating the impact of changing
interest rates on net interest income and net income over a twelve-month
horizon. At December 31, 2016, the earnings simulation model projected that
net income would decrease by 1.9% using a rising interest rate scenario and
decrease by 6.3% using a declining interest rate scenario over the next year. 
At December 31, 2015, the earnings simulation model projected that net
income would decrease by 0.4% using a rising interest rate scenario and
decrease by 10.9% using a declining interest rate scenario over the next year. 
At December 31, 2014, the earnings simulation model projected that net
income would increase by 1.3% using a rising interest rate scenario and
decrease by 7.1% using a declining interest rate scenario over the following
year. Consistently, over the past several years, Park’s earnings simulation model
has projected that changes in interest rates would have only a small impact on
net income and the net interest margin. Park’s net interest margin was 3.52% 
in 2016, 3.39% in 2015 and 3.55% in 2014.

(1) Pension payments reflect 10 years of payments, through 2027.

As of December 31, 2016, Park had $14.3 million in unfunded commitments
related to investments in qualified affordable housing projects which are not
included in Table 36. Commitments are funded when capital calls are made by
the general partner. Park expects that the current commitments will be funded
between 2017 and 2027.

The Corporation’s operating lease obligations represent short-term and 
long-term lease and rental payments for facilities and equipment. Purchase
obligations represent obligations under agreements to purchase goods or
 services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Corporation.

Commitments, Contingent Liabilities, and Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements: In order to meet the financing needs of our customers, 
the Corporation issues loan commitments and standby letters of credit. At
December 31, 2016, the Corporation had $912.0 million of loan commitments
for commercial, commercial real estate, and residential real estate loans and
had $13.7 million of standby letters of credit. At December 31, 2015, the
Corporation had $888.4 million of loan commitments for commercial,
 commercial real estate, and residential real estate loans and had $12.3 
million of standby letters of credit.

Commitments to extend credit under loan commitments and standby letters 
of credit do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. These
 commitments often expire without being drawn upon. However, all of the 
loan commitments and standby letters of credit were permitted to be drawn
upon in 2016. See Note 23 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
for additional information on loan commitments and standby letters of credit.

The Corporation did not have any unrecorded significant contingent liabilities 
at December 31, 2016.

Capital: Park’s primary means of maintaining capital adequacy is through
retained earnings. At December 31, 2016, the Corporation’s total shareholders’
equity was $742.2 million, compared to $713.4 million at December 31, 2015.
Total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2016 was 9.94% of total assets,
compared to 9.76% of total assets at December 31, 2015.

Tangible shareholders’ equity was $669.9 million [total shareholders’ equity
($742.2 million) less goodwill ($72.3 million)] at December 31, 2016 and
was $641.0 million [total shareholders’ equity ($713.4 million) less goodwill
($72.3 million)] at December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2016, tangible
shareholders’ equity was 9.06% of total tangible assets [total assets ($7,468

million) less goodwill ($72.3 million)], compared to 8.86% of total tangible
assets [total assets ($7,311 million) less goodwill ($72.3 million)] at
December 31, 2015.

Net income was $86.1 million in 2016, $81.0 million in 2015 and $84.0 million
in 2014.

Cash dividends declared for Park’s common shares were $58.0 million in 2016
and $57.9 million in each of 2015 and 2014. On a per share basis, the cash
 dividends declared were $3.76 per share in each of 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Park did not issue any new common shares, which it had not already held as
treasury shares, in any of 2016, 2015 or 2014. Common shares had a balance
of $305.8 million, $304.0 million, and $303.1 million at December 31, 2016,
2015, and 2014, respectively.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss (net) was $17.7 million at December
31, 2016, compared to $15.6 million at December 31, 2015, and $13.6 million
at December 31, 2014. During the 2016 year, the change in net unrealized
holding gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net of income tax, was 
a loss of $2.7 million. During the 2015 year, the change in net unrealized
holding gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net of income tax, was 
a loss of $1.5 million. During the 2014 year, the change in net unrealized
holding gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net of income tax, was 
a gain of $31.1 million. Finally, Park recognized an other comprehensive gain
of $611,000, net of income tax, related to the change in pension plan assets 
and benefit obligations in 2016, compared to an other comprehensive loss 
of $486,000, net of income tax, in 2015, and an other comprehensive loss 
of $9.3 million, net of income tax, in 2014.

Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital
ratios for banks, thrifts and bank holding companies. Park has elected not to
include the net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities in com-
puting regulatory capital. During the first quarter of 2015, Park adopted the
Basel III regulatory capital framework as approved by the federal banking
 agencies. The adoption of this framework modified the calculation of the
various capital ratios, added an additional ratio, common equity tier 1, and
revised the adequately and well capitalized thresholds. Additionally, under 
this framework, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including
dividend payments, Park must hold a capital conservation buffer above the
 adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer
is being phased in from 0.0% for 2015 to 2.50% by 2019. The capital conserva-
tion buffer was 0.625% for 2016. The amounts shown below as the adequately
capitalized ratio plus capital conservation buffer includes the fully phased-in
2.50% buffer.

Effects of Inflation: Balance sheets of financial institutions typically contain
assets and liabilities that are monetary in nature and, therefore, differ greatly
from most commercial and industrial companies which have significant
 investments in premises, equipment and inventory. During periods of inflation,
financial institutions that are in a net positive monetary position will experience
a decline in purchasing power, which does have an impact on growth. Another
significant effect on internal equity growth is other expenses, which tend to rise
during periods of inflation.

Management believes the most significant impact on financial results is the
Corporation’s ability to align our asset/liability management program to react 
to changes in interest rates.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH
Table 42 compares the total return performance for Park’s common shares
with the Amex Composite, the NASDAQ Bank Stocks Index, SNL Financial Bank
and Thrift Index, NYSE MKT Composite Index, and the SNL U.S. Bank NYSE
Index for the five-year period from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2016.
The Amex Composite Index is a market capitalization-weighted index made up
of stocks that represent the NYSE Amex equities market. The NASDAQ Bank
Stocks Index is comprised of all depository institutions, holding companies 
and other investment companies that are traded on The NASDAQ Global Select,
Global, and Capital Markets. Park considers a number of bank holding compa-
nies traded on The NASDAQ Global Select Market to be within our peer group.
The SNL Financial Bank and Thrift Index is comprised of all  publicly-traded
bank holding company and thrift holding company stocks researched by SNL
Financial. The NYSE MKT Composite Index is a market capitalization-weighted
index of the stocks listed on NYSE MKT. The SNL U.S. Bank NYSE Index is com-
prised of all publicly-traded U.S. bank holding company stocks listed on NYSE
MKT researched by SNL Financial.

The NYSE MKT Financial Stocks Index includes the stocks of bank holding
 companies, thrift holding companies, finance companies and securities  
broker-dealers. Park believes that the NASDAQ Bank Stocks Index and the 
SNL Financial Bank and Thrift Index are more appropriate industry indices 
for Park to use for the five-year total return performance comparison.

The annual compound total return on Park’s common shares for the past five
years was a positive 18.5%. By comparison, the annual compound total returns
for the past five years on the Amex Composite, the NASDAQ Bank Stocks Index,
the SNL Financial Bank and Thrift Index, the NYSE MKT Composite Index, and
the SNL U.S. Bank NYSE Index were a positive 3.4%, a positive 21.5%, a positive
21.5%, a positive 11.0% and a positive 21.6%, respectively.

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Park National Corporation

The management of Park National Corporation (the “Corporation”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining
 adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities
 Exchange Act of 1934, for the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Corporation’s internal control over
 financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable  assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and 
the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
 principles. The Corporation’s internal control over financial  reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions 

and dispositions of the assets of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries;

b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial

statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures
of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the Corporation; and

c) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or

 disposition of the assets of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries that could have a material effect 
on the financial statements.

The Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as it relates to the consolidated financial statements is
 evaluated for  effectiveness by management and tested for reliability through a program of internal audits. Actions 
are taken to correct potential deficiencies as they are identified.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 
Also, projections of any evaluations of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
 inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
 deteriorate. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control over financial reporting will provide only reasonable
assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.

With the participation of our Chairman of the Board, our Chief Executive Officer and President and our Chief Financial
 Officer, management evaluated the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of
 December 31, 2016, the end of the Corporation’s fiscal year. In making this assessment, management used the criteria 
set forth for effective internal control over financial reporting by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
 Treadway Commission’s (COSO) 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework. 

Based on our assessment under the criteria described in the immediately preceding paragraph, management concluded
that the  Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016.

The Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe Horwath LLP, has audited the Corporation’s 
2016 and 2015 consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report and the Corporation’s internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, and has issued their Report of Independent Registered Public
 Accounting Firm, which appears in this Annual Report.

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Park National Corporation
Newark, Ohio

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Park National Corporation and subsidiaries as of
 December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in
 shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2016. We also have
 audited Park National Corporation’s internal  control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria
 established in the 2013 Internal Control –  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations 
of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Park  National Corporation’s management is responsible for these financial statements, 
for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting, included in the  accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the company’s internal control  
over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial state-
ments are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
 material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by manage-
ment, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included
obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also
 included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
 reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
 accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions
of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
 projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
 because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
 position of Park National Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting
 principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, Park National Corporation maintained, in 
all material respects, effective  internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established 
in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
 Commission (COSO).

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed 
in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park 
National Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Park”, the “Company” or 
the “Corporation”). Material intercompany accounts and transactions 
have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make
 estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or
shareholders’ equity.

Restrictions on Cash and Due from Banks
The Corporation’s national bank subsidiary is required to maintain average
reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank. The average required reserve
balance was approximately $51.6 million at December 31, 2016 and $44.2
million at December 31, 2015. No other compensating balance arrangements
were in existence at December 31, 2016.

Investment Securities
Investment securities are classified upon acquisition into one of three
 categories: held-to-maturity (“HTM”), available-for-sale (“AFS”), or trading
(see Note 4 – Investment Securities).

HTM securities are those securities that the Corporation has the positive 
intent and ability to hold to maturity and are recorded at amortized cost. AFS
securities are those securities that would be available to be sold in the future in
response to the Corporation’s liquidity needs, changes in market interest rates,
and asset-liability management strategies, among other reasons. AFS securities
are reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded
from earnings but included in other comprehensive income (loss), net of
 applicable income taxes. The Corporation did not hold any trading securities
during any period presented.

AFS and HTM securities are evaluated quarterly for potential other-than-
 temporary impairment. Management considers the facts related to each security
including the nature of the security, the amount and duration of the loss, the
credit quality of the issuer, the expectations for that security’s performance 
and whether Park intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that Park will be
required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its
amortized cost basis. Declines in the value of equity securities that are consid-
ered to be other-than-temporary are recorded as a charge to earnings in the
Consolidated Statements of Income. Declines in the value of debt securities that
are considered to be other-than-temporary are separated into (1) the amount
of the total impairment related to credit loss and (2) the amount of the total
impairment related to all other factors. The amount of the total other-than-
 temporary impairment related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings. 
The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other
factors is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of income tax.

Interest income from investment securities includes amortization of purchase
premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized on
the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage-
backed securities where prepayments are anticipated.

Gains and losses realized on the sale of investment securities are recorded 
on the trade date and determined using the specific identification basis.

56

Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and 
Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) Stock
Park’s national bank subsidiary, The Park National Bank (“PNB”) is a member
of the FHLB. Additionally, PNB is a member of the FRB. Members are required
to own a certain amount of stock based on their level of borrowings and other
factors and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock and FRB stock are
classified as restricted securities and are carried at their redemption value
within other investment securities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Impairment is evaluated based on the ultimate recovery of par value. 
Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.

Bank Owned Life Insurance
Park has purchased insurance policies on the lives of directors and certain 
key officers. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value
(or the amount that can be realized).

Loans Held for Sale
Generally, loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. 
Park has elected the fair value option for mortgage loans held for sale, which
are carried at their fair value as of each balance sheet date.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives
Commitments to fund mortgage loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the
secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of these
mortgage loans are accounted for as free standing derivatives. The fair values 
of these mortgage derivatives are estimated based on changes in mortgage
 interest rates from the date the interest rate on the loan is locked. The 
Company enters into forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage
loans when interest rate locks are entered into, in order to hedge the change 
in interest rates resulting from its commitments to fund the loans. Changes in
the fair values of these derivatives are included in net gains on sale of loans.

Loans
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable
future or until maturity or payoff, are reported at their outstanding principal
balances adjusted for any charge-offs, any deferred fees or costs on originated
loans, and any unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.
Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Net deferred 
loan origination fees and costs are deferred and recognized in interest 
income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments.

Commercial loans include: (1) commercial, financial and agricultural loans;
(2) commercial real estate loans; (3) those commercial loans in the real estate
construction loan segment; and (4) those commercial loans in the residential
real estate loan segment. Consumer loans include: (1) mortgage and install-
ment loans included in the real estate construction segment; (2) mortgage,
home equity lines of credit (“HELOCs”), and installment loans included in the
residential real estate segment; and (3) all loans included in the consumer
segment.

Generally, commercial loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 90 days past
due and consumer and residential mortgage loans are placed on nonaccrual
status at 120 days past due. Commercial loans placed on nonaccrual status are
considered impaired (see Note 5 – Loans). For loans which are on nonaccrual
status, it is Park’s policy to reverse interest previously accrued on the loans
against interest income. Interest on such loans may be recorded on a cash 
basis and be included in earnings only when Park expects to receive the entire
recorded investment of the loan. Park’s charge-off policy for commercial loans
requires management to establish a specific reserve or record a charge-off as
soon as it is apparent that the  borrower is troubled and there is, or likely will
be, a collateral shortfall related to the estimated value of the collateral securing
the loan. The Company’s charge-off policy for consumer loans is dependent on
the class of the loan. Residential mortgage loans, HELOCs, and consumer loans
secured by  resi dential real estate are typically charged down to the value of the
collateral, less estimated selling costs, at 180 days past due. The charge-off

PNC_AR2016_K+PMS286_PressFinal.qxp  2/21/17  3:27 PM  Page 38

N O T E S   T O   C O N S O L I D A T E D   F I N A N C I A L   S T A T E M E N T S

policy for other consumer loans, primarily installment loans, requires a
monthly review of delinquent loans and a complete charge-off for any 
account that reaches 120 days past due.

The delinquency status of a loan is based on contractual terms and not on how
recently payments have been received. Loans may be removed from nonaccrual
status when loan payments have been received to cure the delinquency status,
the borrower has demonstrated the ability to maintain current payment status in
accordance with the loan agreement and the loan is deemed to be well-secured
by management.

A description of each segment of the loan portfolio, along with the risk
 characteristics of each segment, is included below:

Commercial, financial and agricultural: Commercial, financial and
 agricultural loans are made for a wide variety of general corporate purposes,
including financing for commercial and industrial businesses, financing for
equipment, inventories and accounts receivable, acquisition financing and
 commercial leasing. The term of each commercial loan varies by its purpose.
Repayment terms are structured such that commercial loans will be repaid
within the economic useful life of the underlying asset. The commercial loan
portfolio includes loans to a wide variety of corporations and businesses across
many industrial classifications originated in the 28 Ohio counties where PNB
operates. The primary industries represented by these customers include
 manufacturing, retail trade, health care and other services.

Commercial real estate: Commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans include
mortgage loans to developers and owners of commercial real estate. The
lending policy for CRE loans is designed to address the unique risk attributes 
of CRE lending. The collateral for these CRE loans is the underlying commercial
real estate.

Construction real estate: The Company defines construction loans as both
commercial construction loans and residential construction loans where the
loan proceeds are used exclusively for the improvement of real estate as to
which the Company holds a mortgage. Construction loans may be in the form 
of a permanent loan or short-term construction loan, depending on the needs
of the individual borrower. Construction financing is generally considered to
involve a higher degree of risk of loss than long-term financing on improved,
occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan depends largely upon
the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property’s value at completion of
 construction and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. If the
estimate of construction cost proves to be inaccurate, the PNB division making
the loan may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally
 committed to permit completion of the project. If the estimate of value proves
inaccurate, the PNB division may be confronted, at or prior to the maturity of
the loan, with a project having a value insufficient to assure full repayment,
should the borrower default. In the event that a default on a construction loan
occurs and foreclosure follows, the PNB division must take control of the
project and attempt to either arrange for completion of construction or dispose
of the unfinished project. Additional risk exists with respect to loans made to
developers who do not have a buyer for the property, as the developer may 
lack funds to pay the loan if the property is not sold upon completion. PNB and
its divisions attempt to reduce such risks on loans to developers by requiring
personal guarantees and reviewing current personal financial statements and
tax returns as well as other projects undertaken by the developer.

Residential real estate: The Company defines residential real estate loans 
as first mortgages on individuals’ primary residences or second mortgages 
of individuals’ primary residences in the form of HELOCs or installment loans.
Credit approval for residential real estate loans requires demonstration of
 sufficient income to repay the principal and interest and the real estate taxes
and insurance, stability of employment, an established credit record and an
appraised value of the real estate securing the loan.

Consumer: The Company originates direct and indirect consumer loans,
 primarily automobile loans, to customers in its primary market areas. Credit
approval for consumer loans requires income sufficient to repay principal and
interest due, stability of employment, an established credit record and sufficient
collateral for secured loans. Consumer loans typically have shorter terms and
lower balances with higher yields as compared to real estate mortgage loans,
but generally carry higher risks of default. Consumer loan collections are
dependent on the borrower’s financial stability, and thus are more likely 
to be affected by adverse personal circumstances.

Allowance for Loan Losses (“ALLL”)
The allowance for loan losses is that amount believed adequate to absorb
 probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio based on management’s
evaluation of various factors. The determination of the allowance requires
 significant estimates, including the timing and amounts of expected cash 
flows on impaired loans, consideration of current economic conditions, 
and historical loss experience pertaining to pools of homogeneous loans, 
all of which may be susceptible to change. The allowance is increased through 
a provision for loan losses that is charged to earnings based on management’s
quarterly evaluation of the factors previously mentioned and is reduced by
charge-offs, net of recoveries.

The allowance for loan losses includes both (1) an estimate of loss based 
on historical loss experience within both commercial and consumer loan
 categories with similar characteristics (“statistical allocation”) and (2) an
 estimate of loss based on an impairment analysis of each commercial loan 
that is considered to be impaired (“specific allocation”). Included in the
 statistical allocation is a reserve for troubled debt restructuring (“TDRs”)
within the consumer loan portfolio. Management performs a periodic
 evaluation to ensure the reserve calculated utilizing the statistical allocation 
is consistent with a reserve calculated under Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) 310-10 – Receivables.

In calculating the allowance for loan losses, management believes it is
 appropriate to consider historical loss rates that are comparable to the current
period being analyzed, giving consideration to losses experienced over a full
cycle. For the historical loss factor at December 31, 2016, the Company utilized
an annual loss rate (“historical loss experience”), calculated based on an
average of the net charge-offs and the annual change in specific reserves for
impaired commercial loans, experienced during 2010 through 2016 within 
the individual segments of the commercial and consumer loan categories.
Management believes the 84-month historical loss experience methodology 
is appropriate in the current economic conditions.

The loss factor applied to Park’s consumer loan portfolio as of December 
31, 2016 was based on the historical loss experience over the past 84 months,
plus an additional judgmental reserve, increasing the total allowance for loan
loss  coverage in the consumer loan portfolio to approximately 1.95 years of
 historical losses. The consumer loan portfolio loss coverage ratio was 1.99
years at December 31, 2015. Historical loss experience over the past 84 
months for the consumer loan portfolio was 0.34% for 2016 and 0.42% 
for 2015.

The loss factor applied to Park’s commercial loan portfolio as of December 31, 
2016 was based on the historical loss experience over the past 84 months, 
plus additional reserves for consideration of (1) a loss emergence period
factor, (2) a loss migration factor and (3) a judgmental or environmental 
loss factor. These additional reserves increased the total allowance for loan 
loss coverage in the commercial loan portfolio to approximately 3.20 years 
of  historical losses at December 31, 2016. The commercial loan portfolio loss
coverage ratio was 2.37 years at December 31, 2015. Historical loss experience
over the past 84 months for the commercial loan portfolio was 0.39% for 2016
and 0.53% for 2015. Park’s commercial loans are  individually risk graded. If
loan downgrades occur, the probability of default increases and accordingly
management allocates a higher percentage reserve to those accruing  com -
mercial loans graded special mention and substandard.

The judgmental increases discussed above incorporate management’s
 evaluation of the impact of environmental qualitative factors which pose
 additional risks and assign a component of the allowance for loan losses in
consideration of these factors. Such environmental factors include: national 
and local economic trends and conditions; experience, ability and depth of
lending management and staff; effects of any changes in lending policies and
procedures; and levels of, and trends in, consumer bankruptcies, delinquen-
cies, impaired loans and charge-offs and recoveries.

GAAP requires a specific allocation to be established as a component of the
allowance for loan losses for certain loans when it is probable that all amounts
due pursuant to the contractual terms of the loans will not be collected, and 
the recorded investment in the loans exceeds their measure of impairment.
Management considers the following related to commercial loans when
 determining if a loan should be considered impaired: (1) current debt service
coverage levels of the borrowing entity; (2) payment history over the most
recent 12-month period; (3) other signs of deterioration in the borrower’s
financial situation, such as changes in credit scores; and (4) consideration of
global cash flows of financially sound guarantors that have previously supported
loan payments. The recorded investment is the carrying balance of the loan,
plus accrued interest receivable, both as of the end of the year. Impairment is
measured using either the present value of expected future cash flows based
upon the initial effective interest rate on the loan, or the fair value of the
 collateral. If a loan is considered to be collateral dependent, the fair value 
of collateral, less estimated selling costs, is used to measure impairment.

Troubled Debt Restructuring
Management classifies loans as TDRs when a borrower is experiencing 
financial difficulty and Park has granted a concession. In order to determine
whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is per-
formed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any 
of the borrower's debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This
evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy.
Management’s policy is to modify loans by extending the term or by granting 
a temporary or permanent contractual interest rate below the market rate, 
not by forgiving debt. A court's discharge of a borrower's debt in a Chapter 7
bankruptcy is considered a concession when the borrower does not reaffirm
the discharged debt. TDRs are separately identified for impairment disclosures
and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the
loan’s effective rate at inception. If a TDR is considered to be a collateral
dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral.

Income Recognition
Income earned by the Corporation and its subsidiaries is recognized on 
the accrual basis of accounting, except for nonaccrual loans as previously
 discussed, and late charges on loans which are recognized as income when
they are collected.

Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost and is not subject to depreciation. Premises 
and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and
 amortization. Depreciation is generally provided on the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements
are amortized over the shorter of the remaining lease period or the estimated
useful lives of the improvements. Upon the sale or other disposal of an asset,
the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
and the resulting gain or loss is recognized. Maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense as incurred while renewals and improvements that extend
the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Premises and equipment are evaluated
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of a particular asset may not be recoverable.

The range of depreciable lives over which premises and equipment are being
depreciated are:

Buildings
Equipment, furniture and fixtures
Leasehold improvements

30 Years
3 to 12 Years
1 to 10 Years

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)
Management transfers a loan to OREO at the time that Park takes deed/title of
the asset. OREO is initially recorded at fair value less anticipated selling costs
(net realizable value), establishing a new cost basis, and consists of property
acquired through foreclosure and real estate held for sale. If the net realizable
value is below the carrying value of the loan at the date of transfer, the differ-
ence is charged to the allowance for loan losses. These assets are subsequently
accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent
changes in the value of real estate are classified as OREO valuation adjustments,
are reported as adjustments to the carrying amount of OREO and are recorded
within “Other income.” In certain circumstances where management believes
the devaluation may not be permanent in nature, Park utilizes a valuation
allowance to record OREO devaluations, which is also expensed through 
“Other income.” Costs relating to development and improvement of such
 properties are capitalized (not in excess of fair value less estimated costs 
to sell) and costs relating to holding the properties are charged to “Other
expense.”

Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSR”)
When Park sells mortgage loans with servicing rights retained, servicing rights
are recorded at an amount not to exceed fair value with the income statement
effect recorded in “Other service income.” Capitalized servicing rights are
 amortized in proportion to and over the period of the estimated future servicing
income of the underlying loan and are included within “Other service income”.

Mortgage servicing rights are assessed for impairment periodically, based on
fair value, with any impairment recognized through a valuation allowance. The
fair value of mortgage servicing rights is determined by discounting estimated
future cash flows from the servicing assets, using market discount rates and
expected future prepayment rates. In order to calculate fair value, the sold loan
portfolio is stratified into homogeneous pools of like categories. (See Note 24 –
Loan Servicing.)

Fees received for servicing mortgage loans owned by investors are based on a
percentage of the outstanding monthly principal balance of such loans and are
included in income as loan payments are received. The cost of servicing loans 
is charged to expense as incurred.

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over net identifiable
 tangible and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized to expense, 
but are subject to impairment tests annually, or more frequently, if events 
or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired, by
assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events 
or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not 
that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If after
assessing these events or circumstances, it is concluded that it is not more likely
than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount,
then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying
amount of the goodwill exceeds the fair value, an impairment charge must 
be recorded in an amount equal to the excess.

Management considers several factors when performing the annual impairment
tests on goodwill. The factors considered include the operating results for the
particular Park segment for the past year and the operating results budgeted for
the current year (including multi-year projections), the deposit and loan totals
of the Park segment and the economic conditions in the markets served by 
the Park segment. At December 31, 2016, the goodwill remaining on Park’s
Consolidated Balance Sheet consisted entirely of goodwill at PNB. (See Note
27 – Segment Information for operating segment results.)

Park evaluates goodwill for impairment on April 1 of each year, with financial
data as of March 31. Based on the analysis performed as of April 1, 2016, the
Company determined that goodwill for Park’s national bank subsidiary (PNB)
was not impaired. There have been no subsequent circumstances or events
 triggering an additional evaluation.

Goodwill in the amount of $72.3 million was recorded at each of December 
31, 2016, 2015, and 2014.

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and cash items, amounts due from
banks and money market instruments. Generally, money market instruments
are purchased and sold for one-day periods.

Loss Contingencies and Guarantees
Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary
course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is
probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated.

Income Taxes
The Corporation accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability
approach. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
 liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in
effect when the differences are expected to reverse. To the extent that Park does
not consider it more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, 
a valuation allowance is recorded. All positive and negative evidence is reviewed
when determining how much of a valuation allowance is recognized on a quar-
terly basis. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the
amount expected to be realized.

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more-likely-
than-not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination being
presumed to occur. The benefit recognized for a tax position that meets the
“more-likely-than-not” criteria is measured based on the largest benefit that 
is more than 50 percent likely to be realized, taking into consideration the
amounts and probabilities of the outcome upon settlement. For tax positions
not meeting the “more-likely-than-not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Park
recognizes any interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income
tax expense.

Treasury Shares
The purchase of Park’s common shares to be held in treasury is recorded at
cost. At the date of  retirement or subsequent reissuance, the treasury shares
account is reduced by the weighted average cost of the common shares retired
or reissued.

Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive
income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains
and losses on securities available for sale, and changes in the funded status 
of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan, which are also recognized 
as separate components of equity.

Share-Based Compensation
Compensation cost is recognized for restricted stock units and stock awards
issued to employees and directors, respectively, based on the fair value of these
awards at the date of grant. The market price of Park’s common shares at the
date of grant is used to estimate the fair value of restricted stock units and stock
awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period,
 generally defined as the vesting period and is recorded in “Salaries” expense.
(See Note 17 – Share-Based Compensation.)

Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments
Financial instruments include off balance sheet credit instruments, such as
commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet
customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the
 exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay.
Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Fair Value Measurement
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market infor-
mation and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 25 – Fair Value.
Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment
regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially
in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions
or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Transfers of Financial Assets
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over 
the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed 
to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the
transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking
advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and 
the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets
through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Retirement Plans
Pension expense is the net of service and interest cost, return on plan assets
and amortization of gains and losses not immediately recognized. Employee
KSOP plan expense is the amount of matching contributions to Park’s employ-
ees stock ownership plan. Deferred compensation and supplemental retirement
plan expense allocates the benefits over years of service. (See Note 18 – Benefit
Plans.)

Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is net income available to common share-
holders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive
effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock awards,
stock options, warrants and convertible securities. Earnings and dividends 
per common share are restated for any stock splits and stock dividends through
the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements. (See Note 21 –
Earnings Per Common Share.)

Operating Segments
The Corporation is a financial holding company headquartered in Newark,
Ohio. The operating segments for the Corporation are its chartered national
bank subsidiary, PNB (headquartered in Newark, Ohio), SE Property Holdings,
LLC (“SEPH”), and Guardian Financial Services Company (“GFSC”).

2. ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND
ISSUED NOT YET EFFECTIVE ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

ASU 2014-09 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606):
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with
Customers (Topic 606). The ASU creates a new topic, Topic 606, to provide
guidance on revenue recognition for entities that enter into contracts with
 customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer
of nonfinancial assets. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity
should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services
to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additional
 disclosures are required to provide quantitative and qualitative information
regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash
flows arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance is effective 
for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those 
annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. While interest income 
is specifically out of scope of this standard, management is currently evaluating
the revenue streams within “Other Income” to assess the applicability of this
standard. Specifically, management is evaluating the impact of this new guid-
ance on deposit fees recorded within “Service Charges on Deposit Accounts”
and trust income within “Income from Fiduciary Activities.”

ASU 2015-02 – Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the
Consolidation Analysis: In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02,
Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis.
The ASU amends the current consolidation guidance and affect both the variable
interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models. The new guidance
is effective for annual reporting periods and interim reporting periods within
those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this
guidance on January 1, 2016 did not have an impact on Park’s consolidated
financial statements.

ASU 2016-01 – Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10):
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 – Financial
Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement
of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Changes to the current U.S.
GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial
 liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure
requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance
related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax
assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities. The new
guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim reporting periods
within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption
of this guidance is not expected to have a  material impact on Park’s consoli-
dated financial statements.

ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842): In February 2016, the FASB issued 
ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842). The ASU will require all organizations that
lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the
rights and obligations created by those leases. Additional qualitative and quanti-
tative disclosures will be required so that users can understand more about the
nature of an entity’s leasing activities. The new guidance is effective for annual
reporting periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods,
beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Management
is currently analyzing data on leased assets. The adoption of this guidance is
expected to increase both assets and liabilities, but is not expected to have 
a material impact on Park's consolidated statement of income.

ASU 2016-09 – Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718):
Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting:
In March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-09 – Compensation—Stock

Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based
Payment Accounting. The ASU provides simplification for several aspects 
of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income 
tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and
classification on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for
annual reporting periods and interim reporting periods within those annual
periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The
adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact 
on Park’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-13 – Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326):
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments: In June 2016,
FASB issued ASU 2016-13 – Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic
326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The new
guidance replaces the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, 
which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. 
The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial
assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables, HTM debt secu-
rities, and reinsurance receivables. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit
exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters
of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net invest-
ments in leases recognized by a lessor. The CECL model requires an entity to
estimate the credit losses over the life of an asset or off-balance sheet exposure.
The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim report-
ing periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019.
Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods and interim reporting
periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018.

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance
on Park’s consolidated financial statements. We anticipate that the adoption of
the CECL model will result in a material increase to Park’s allowance for loan
losses. Management has established a committee to oversee the implementation
of CECL. This committee is currently assessing the data and system require-
ments necessary for adoption. Management plans to run our current model 
and a CECL model concurrently for 12 months prior to the adoption of this
guidance on January 1, 2020.

ASU 2016-15 – Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 203): Classification 
of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the
Emerging Issues Task Force): In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-
15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 203): Classification of Certain Cash
Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task
Force). This ASU provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues where
current GAAP is either unclear or does not include specific guidance. The 
new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting
periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. As
such transactions arise, management will utilize the updated guidance within
Park’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

ASU 2017-04 – Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350):
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment: In January 2017, the 
FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350):
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2
from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, under the new guidance, an entity
should perform its annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value
of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge would be
recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting
unit’s fair value. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, 
and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after
December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual 
goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. 
The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have an impact on Park’s
 consolidated financial statements.

3. ORGANIZATION
Park National Corporation is a financial holding company headquartered in
Newark, Ohio. Through its national bank subsidiary, PNB, Park is engaged 
in a general commercial banking and trust business, primarily in Ohio. PNB
operates through eleven banking divisions with the Park National Bank Division
headquartered in Newark, Ohio, the Fairfield National Bank Division headquar-
tered in Lancaster, Ohio, The Park National Bank of Southwest Ohio & Northern
Kentucky Division headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, the First-Knox National
Bank Division headquartered in Mount Vernon, Ohio, the Farmers Bank
Division headquartered in Loudonville, Ohio, the Security National Bank
Division headquartered in Springfield, Ohio, the Unity National Bank Division
headquartered in Piqua, Ohio, the Richland Bank Division headquartered 
in Mansfield, Ohio, the Century National Bank Division headquartered in
Zanesville, Ohio, the United Bank, N.A. Division headquartered in Bucyrus, 
Ohio and the Second National Bank Division headquartered in Greenville, 
Ohio. A wholly-owned subsidiary of Park, GFSC is a consumer finance 
company located in Central Ohio.

Through February 16, 2012, Park operated a second banking subsidiary, 
Vision Bank (“Vision”), which was engaged in a general commercial banking
business, primarily in Baldwin County, Alabama and the panhandle of Florida.
Promptly following the sale of the Vision business to Centennial Bank (a wholly-
owned subsidiary of HomeBanc Shares, Inc.), Vision surrendered its Florida
banking charter to the Florida Office of Financial Regulation and became a 
non-bank Florida corporation. Vision (the Florida corporation) merged with
and into a wholly-owned, non-bank subsidiary of Park, SEPH, with SEPH being
the surviving entity. SEPH holds the remaining assets and liabilities retained by
Vision subsequent to the sale. SEPH also holds OREO that had previously been
transferred to SEPH from Vision. SEPH’s assets consist primarily of performing
and nonperforming loans and OREO. This segment represents a run off  port -
folio of the legacy Vision assets.

All of the Ohio-based banking divisions provide the following principal services:
the acceptance of deposits for demand, savings and time accounts; commercial,
industrial, consumer and real estate lending, including installment loans, credit
cards, home equity lines of credit; trust services; cash management; safe deposit
operations; electronic funds transfers and a variety of additional banking-related
services. See Note 27 – Segment Information for financial information on the
Corporation’s operating segments.

4. INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The amortized cost and fair value of investment securities are shown in the
 following tables. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of investment
securities for any other-than-temporary impairment. During 2016, 2015 and

Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of December 31,
2016 or 2015 represented an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized
losses on debt securities are primarily the result of interest rate changes. These
conditions will not prohibit Park from receiving its contractual principal and
interest payments on these debt securities. The fair value of these debt securities
is expected to recover as payments are received on these securities and they
approach maturity. Should the impairment of any of these securities become
other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the
resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary
impairment is identified.

Management’s general practice is to proactively charge down loans 
individually evaluated for impairment to the fair value of the underlying
 collateral. At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were 
$24.7 million and $24.2 million, respectively, of partial charge-offs on loans
individually evaluated for impairment with no related allowance recorded 
and $177,000 and $4.5 million, respectively, of partial charge-offs on loans
individually evaluated for impairment that also had a specific reserve allocated.

The allowance for loan losses included specific reserves related to loans
 individually evaluated for impairment at December 31, 2016 and 2015, of 
$0.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively. These loans with specific reserves
had a recorded investment of $2.1 million and $19.9 million as of December
31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Interest income on nonaccrual loans individually evaluated for impairment 
is recognized on a cash basis only when Park expects to receive the entire
recorded investment of the loan. Interest income on accruing TDRs individually
evaluated for impairment continues to be recorded on an accrual basis. The
 following tables present the average recorded investment and interest income
recognized subsequent to impairment on loans individually evaluated for
impairment as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014:

Includes an aggregate of $2.0 million of loans past due 90 days or more and accruing. 
The remaining are past due, nonaccrual loans.
Includes an aggregate of $55.5 million of nonaccrual loans which are current in regards

Credit Quality Indicators
Management utilizes past due information as a credit quality indicator across
the loan portfolio. Past due information as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 
is included in the tables above. The past due information is the primary credit
quality indicator within the following classes of loans: (1) mortgage loans and
installment loans in the construction real estate segment; (2) mortgage loans,
HELOC and installment loans in the residential real estate segment; and 
(3) consumer loans. The primary credit indicator for commercial loans is
based on an internal grading system that grades all commercial loans on a 
scale from 1 to 8. Credit grades are continuously monitored by the responsible
loan officer and adjustments are made when appropriate. A grade of 1 indicates
little or no credit risk and a grade of 8 is considered a loss. Commercial loans
that are pass-rated (graded a 1 through a 4) are considered to be of acceptable
credit risk. Commercial loans graded a 5 (special mention) are considered to

be watch list credits and a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allocated 
to these loans. Loans classified as special mention have potential weaknesses
that require management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential
weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan
or of Park’s credit position at some future date. Commercial loans graded a 6
(substandard), also considered watch list credits, are considered to represent
higher credit risk and, as a result, a higher loan loss reserve percentage is allo-
cated to these loans. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected
by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the value of
the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness
or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are character-
ized by the distinct possibility that Park will sustain some loss if the deficiencies
are not corrected. Commercial loans graded a 7 (doubtful) are shown as
nonaccrual and Park generally charges these loans down to their fair value 
by taking a partial charge-off or recording a specific reserve. Loans classified 
as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard
with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquida-
tion in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly
questionable and improbable. Certain 6-rated loans and all 7-rated loans are
placed on nonaccrual status and included within the impaired category. A loan
is deemed impaired when management determines the borrower’s ability to
perform in accordance with the contractual loan agreement is in doubt. Any
commercial loan graded an 8 (loss) is completely charged off.

Troubled Debt Restructuring
Management classifies loans as TDRs when a borrower is experiencing financial
difficulties and Park has granted a concession to the borrower as part of a
 modification or in the loan renewal process. In order to determine whether 
a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of 
the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of the bor-
rower’s debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation
is performed in accordance with the Company’s internal underwriting policy.
Management’s policy is to modify loans by extending the term or by granting 
a temporary or permanent contractual interest rate below the market rate, 
not by forgiving debt. A court’s discharge of a borrower’s debt in a Chapter 7
bankruptcy is considered a concession when the borrower does not reaffirm
the discharged debt.

Certain loans which were modified during the years ended December 31, 
2016 and December 31, 2015 did not meet the definition of a TDR as the
 modification was a delay in a payment that was considered to be insignificant.
Management considers a forbearance period of up to three months or a delay
in payment of up to 30 days to be insignificant. TDRs may be classified as
 accruing if the borrower has been current for a period of at least six months
with respect to loan payments and management expects that the borrower 
will be able to continue to make payments in accordance with the terms of 
the restructured note. Management reviews all accruing TDRs quarterly to
ensure payments continue to be made in accordance with the modified terms.

Management reviews renewals/modifications of loans previously identified 
as TDRs to consider if it is appropriate to remove the TDR classification. If the
borrower is no longer experiencing financial difficulty and the renewal/modifi-
cation does not contain a concessionary interest rate or other concessionary
terms, management considers the potential removal of the TDR classification. 
If deemed appropriate, the TDR classification is removed as the borrower has
complied with the terms of the loan at the date of the renewal/modification and
there was a reasonable expectation that the borrower would continue to comply
with the terms of the loan subsequent to the date of the renewal/modification.
The majority of these TDRs were originally considered restructurings in a 
prior year as a result of a renewal/modification with an interest rate that 
was not commensurate with the risk of the underlying loan at the time of the
renewal/modification. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015,
Park removed the TDR classification on $2.7 million and $1.2 million, respec-
tively, of loans that met the requirements discussed above.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were $46.9 million and $41.1 million,
respectively, of TDRs included in the nonaccrual loan totals. At December 31,
2016 and 2015, $38.0 million and $19.1 million, respectively, of these  non -
accrual TDRs were performing in accordance with the terms of the restructured
note. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, loans with a recorded investment of
$18.2 million and $25.1 million, respectively, were included in accruing TDR
loan totals. Management will continue to review the restructured loans and may
determine it appropriate to move certain nonaccrual TDRs to accrual status in
the future. 

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, Park had commitments to lend $0.7 million
and $2.3 million, respectively, of additional funds to borrowers whose outstand-
ing loan terms had been modified in a TDR.

The specific reserve related to TDRs at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $0.2
million and $2.3 million, respectively. Modifications made in 2015 and 2016
were largely the result of renewals and extending the maturity date of the loan,
at terms consistent with the original note. These modifications were deemed 
to be TDRs primarily due to Park’s conclusion that the borrower would likely
not have qualified for similar terms through another lender. Many of the  mod -
ifications deemed to be TDRs were previously identified as impaired loans, 
and thus were also previously evaluated for impairment under ASC 310.
Additional  specific reserves of $1.0 million were recorded during the 
year ended December 31, 2016, as a result of TDRs identified in the 2016 
year. Additional specific reserves of $1.3 million were recorded during the 
year ended December 31, 2015 as a result of TDRs identified in the 2015 year.
Additional specific reserves of $0.7 million were recorded during the year
ended December 31, 2014 as a result of TDRs identified in the 2014 year.

The terms of certain other loans were modified during the years ended
December 31, 2016 and 2015 that did not meet the definition of a TDR.
Modified substandard commercial loans which did not meet the definition 
of a TDR had a total recorded investment as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 
of $26,000 and $116,000, respectively. The renewal/modification of these
loans: (1) resulted in a delay in a payment that was considered to be  insig -
nificant, or (2) resulted in Park obtaining additional collateral or guarantees
that improved the likelihood of the ultimate collection of the loan such that the
modification was deemed to be at market terms. Modified consumer loans

which did not meet the definition of a TDR had a total recorded investment 
as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 of $7.4 million and $16.5 million, respec-
tively. Many of these loans were to borrowers who were not experiencing
 financial difficulties but who were looking to reduce their cost of funds.

The following tables detail the number of contracts modified as TDRs during 
the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 as well as the recorded
investment of these contracts at December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014. The
recorded investment pre- and post-modification is generally the same due 
to the fact that Park does not typically forgive principal.

Of the $3.8 million in modified TDRs which defaulted during the year ended
December 31, 2016, $111,000 were accruing loans and $3.7 million were
nonaccrual loans. Of the $2.9 million in modified TDRs which defaulted during
the year ended December 31, 2015, $44,000 were accruing loans and $2.8
million were nonaccrual loans. Of the $2.0 million in modified TDRs which
defaulted during the year ended December 31, 2014, $314,000 were accruing
loans and $1.7 million were nonaccrual loans.

Certain of the Corporation’s executive officers, directors and related entities 
of directors are loan customers of PNB. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015,
credit exposure aggregating approximately $43.4 million and $47.0 million,
respectively, was outstanding to such parties. Of this total exposure, approxi-
mately $29.6 million and $36.0 million was outstanding at December 31, 
2016 and 2015, respectively, with the remaining balance representing available
credit. During 2016, new loans and advances on existing loans were made to
these executive officers, directors and related entities of directors totaling $5.4
million and $3.5 million, respectively. These extensions of credit were offset by
principal payments of $15.3 million. During 2015, new loans and advances on
existing loans were $5.8 million and $7.1 million, respectively. These exten-
sions of credit were offset by principal payments of $12.9 million.

6. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses is that amount management believes is 
adequate to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio 
based on management’s evaluation of various factors including the overall
growth in the loan portfolio, an analysis of individual loans, prior and current
loss experience, and current economic conditions. A provision for loan losses 
is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of these 
and other pertinent factors as discussed within Note 1 – Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies.

The activity in the allowance for loan losses for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 is summarized in the following tables.

Loss factors are reviewed quarterly and updated at least annually to reflect
recent loan loss history and incorporate current risk and trends which may 
not be recognized in historical data. Several enhancements were made in the
third quarter of 2016 as a result of management’s quarterly review.

(cid:0) Management updated the historical loss calculation during the third

quarter of 2016, incorporating annualized net charge-offs plus changes 
in specific reserves through September 30, 2016. Additionally, manage-
ment removed from the historical loss calculation net charge-offs plus
changes in specific reserves for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Management’s belief has been that  historical losses should encompass 
the complete economic cycle. However, given the extended length of 
the economic recovery, management  determined that 2009 loss data 
was no longer reflective of the current  portfolio. Management has taken
the look-back period into consideration in the quarterly evaluation of
environmental loss factors.

(cid:0) As part of the 2016 mid-year historical loss update, management deter-
mined that it was no longer appropriate to more heavily weight those
years with higher losses in the historical loss calculation and applied
equal  per centages to each of the years in this calculation. The trends 
that existed resulting in management applying different weightings to 
years within the historical loss calculation no longer appeared to exist,
resulting in the adjustment back to equal weightings.

(cid:0) As part of the normal quarterly process, management reviewed and

updated the environmental loss factors applied to the commercial  port -
folio in order to incorporate changes in the macroeconomic environment.
Additionally, management updated the calculation of the loss emergence
period utilizing a more granular process.

The impact of the changes described above resulted in a decrease of $3.8
million in the ALLL at September 30, 2016, compared to what the ALLL would
have been had the calculation, and related assumptions, used at June 30, 2016
remained constant.

The loss factors were updated in the fourth quarter of 2016 to incorporate
losses through December 31, 2016. 

Loans collectively evaluated for impairment in the following tables include all
performing loans at December 31, 2016 and 2015, as well as nonperforming
loans internally classified as consumer loans. Nonperforming consumer loans
are not typically individually evaluated for impairment, but receive a portion 
of the statistical allocation of the allowance for loan losses. Loans individually
evaluated for impairment include all impaired loans internally classified as
commercial loans at December 31, 2016 and 2015, which are evaluated for
impairment in accordance with GAAP (see Note 1 – Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies).

10. INVESTMENT IN QUALIFIED AFFORDABLE HOUSING
Park makes certain equity investments in various limited partnerships that
sponsor affordable housing projects. The purposes of these investments are 
to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, help create affordable housing
opportunities, and assist the Company to achieve our goals associated with 
the Community Reinvestment Act.

As permitted by ASU 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified
Affordable Housing Projects, Park elected the proportional amortization
method of accounting. Under the proportional amortization method,  amor -
tization expense and tax benefits are recognized through the provision for
income taxes. 

The table below details the balances of Park’s affordable housing tax credit
investments and related unfunded commitments as of December 31, 2016 
and 2015.

During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, Park recognized
amortization expense of $7.3 million, $6.7 million and $6.9 million, respec-
tively, which was included within the provision for income taxes. For the years

12. REPURCHASE AGREEMENT BORROWINGS
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”)
with customers represent funds deposited by customers, generally on an
overnight basis, that are collateralized by investment securities owned by Park.
Repurchase agreements with customers are included in short-term borrowings
on the consolidated balance sheets. Park's repurchase agreements with a third-
party financial institution are classified as long-term debt on the Consolidated
Balance Sheets.

All repurchase agreements are subject to terms and conditions of
repurchase/security agreements between Park and the client and are 
accounted for as secured borrowings. Park’s repurchase agreements 
reflected in short-term borrowings consist of customer accounts and 
securities which are pledged on an individual security basis.

At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Park’s repurchase agreement
borrowings totaled $510 million and $554 million, respectively. At both
December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $300 million of Park’s
 repurchase agreement borrowings were classified as long-term debt with 
the remaining amount being classified as short-term debt on the Consolidated
Balance Sheets. These borrowings were collateralized with U.S. government 
and agency securities with a carrying value of $569 million and $622 million 
at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Declines in 
the value of the collateral would require Park to pledge additional securities. 
As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Park had $640 million 
and $583 million, respectively, of available unpledged securities.

The following table presents the carrying value of Park’s repurchase agreements

On November 30, 2012, Park restructured $300 million in repurchase agree-
ments at a rate of 1.75%. As part of this restructuring, Park paid a prepayment
penalty of $25 million. The penalty is being amortized as an adjustment to
 interest expense over the remaining term of the repurchase agreements using
the effective interest method, resulting in an effective interest rate of 3.55%. 
Of the $25 million prepayment penalty, $4.7 million remained to be amortized
as of December 31, 2016. The remaining $4.7 million will be amortized in
2017.

On November 21, 2014, Park restructured $50 million in FHLB advances at 
a rate of 1.25%. As part of this restructuring, Park paid a prepayment penalty 
of $3.2 million. The penalty is being amortized as an adjustment to interest
expense over the remaining term of the advances using the effective interest
method, resulting in an effective interest rate of 3.52%. Of the $3.2 million
 prepayment penalty, $1.0 million remained to be amortized as of December 
31, 2016. The remaining $1.0 million will be amortized in 2017.

On March 30, 2015, Park prepaid $54.5 million of FHLB advances, with a
weighted average rate of 1.59%, resulting in a prepayment penalty of $532,000
recognized within other expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

On October 20, 2016, Park prepaid $50.0 million of FHLB advances, incurring
a $5.6 million prepayment penalty recognized within other expense on the
Consolidated Statements of Income. These advances had an interest rate of
3.15% and a maturity date of November 13, 2023.

Park had approximately $100.0 million of long-term debt at December 31,
2016 with a contractual maturity longer than five years. However, all of this 
debt is callable by the lender in 2017.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, FHLB advances were collateralized by invest-
ment securities owned by PNB’s banking divisions and by various loans pledged
under a blanket agreement by PNB’s banking divisions. At December 31, 2016
and 2015, $25 million and $21 million, respectively, of investment securities
were pledged as collateral for FHLB advances. At December 31, 2016 and
2015, $1,909 million and $1,985 million, respectively, of commercial real
estate and residential mortgage loans were pledged under a blanket agreement
to the FHLB by Park's bank subsidiary. See Note 12 – Repurchase Agreement
Borrowings for information related to investment securities collateralizing
repurchase agreements.

15. SUBORDINATED NOTES
As part of the acquisition of Vision's parent bank holding company (“Vision
Parent”) on March 9, 2007, Park became the successor to Vision Parent under
(i) the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement of Vision Bancshares Trust I
(the “Trust”), dated as of December 5, 2005, (ii) the Junior Subordinated
Indenture, dated as of December 5, 2005, and (iii) the Guarantee Agreement,
also dated as of December 5, 2005.

On December 1, 2005, Vision Parent formed a wholly-owned Delaware
 statutory business trust, Vision Bancshares Trust I (“Trust I”), which issued
$15.0 million of Trust I’s floating rate preferred securities (the “Trust Preferred
Securities”) to institutional investors. These Trust Preferred Securities qualify as
Tier I capital under FRB guidelines. All of the common securities of Trust I are
owned by Park. The proceeds from the issuance of the common securities and
the Trust Preferred Securities were used by Trust I to purchase $15.5 million 
of junior subordinated notes, which carry a floating rate based on three-month
LIBOR plus 148 basis points. The debentures represent the sole asset of Trust I.
The Trust Preferred Securities accrue and pay distributions at a floating rate of
three-month LIBOR plus 148 basis points per annum. The Trust Preferred
Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the notes in December
2035, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the notes. Park has the right
to redeem the notes purchased by Trust I in whole or in part, on or after
December 30, 2010. As specified in the indenture, if the notes are redeemed
prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount, plus any
unpaid accrued interest. In accordance with GAAP, Trust I is not consolidated
with Park’s financial statements, but rather the subordinated notes are reflected
as a liability.

On December 23, 2009, Park entered into a Note Purchase Agreement, dated
December 23, 2009, with 38 purchasers (the “2009 Purchasers”). Under the
terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the 2009 Purchasers purchased from
Park an aggregate principal amount of $35.25 million of 10% Subordinated
Notes due December 23, 2019 (the “2009 Notes”). The 2009 Notes were
intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital under applicable rules and regulations 
of the FRB. The 2009 Notes could not be prepaid in any amount prior to
December 23, 2014; however, subsequent to that date, Park could prepay,
without penalty, all or a portion of the principal amount outstanding. Of the
$35.25 million in 2009 Notes, $14.05 million were purchased by related
parties. The 2009 Notes were prepaid in full on December 24, 2014, together
with accrued interest.

On April 20, 2012, Park entered into a Note Purchase Agreement, dated April
20, 2012 (the “2012 Purchase Agreement”), with 56 purchasers (the “2012
Purchasers”). Under the terms of the 2012 Purchase Agreement, the 2012
Purchasers purchased from Park an aggregate principal amount of $30 million
of 7% Subordinated Notes due April 20, 2022 (the “2012 Notes”). The 2012
Notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital under applicable rules and regu-
lations of the FRB. Each 2012 Note was purchased at a purchase price of 100%
of the principal amount thereof. The 2012 Notes may not be prepaid by Park
prior to April 20, 2017. From and after April 20, 2017, Park may prepay all, 
or from time to time, any part of the 2012 Notes at 100% of the principal
amount (plus accrued interest) without penalty, subject to any requirement
under FRB regulations to obtain prior approval from the FRB before making
any prepayment.

16. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company is a defendant in lawsuits and other adversary proceedings arising
in the ordinary course of business. Legal costs incurred in connection with the
resolution of claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred, and the
Company establishes accruals for the outcome of litigation where losses are
deemed probable and reasonably estimable. The Company’s assessment of the
current exposure could change in the event of the discovery of additional facts
with respect to legal matters pending against the Company or determinations 
by judges, juries, administrative agencies or other finders of fact that are not 
in accordance with the Company’s evaluation of claims.

As of December 31, 2016, the Company had accrued charges of approximately
$2.3 million for legal contingencies related to various legal and other adversary
proceedings.

17. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Park National Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2013
Incentive Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors of Park on January 
28, 2013 and was approved by Park’s shareholders at the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders on April 22, 2013. The 2013 Incentive Plan makes equity-based
awards and cash-based awards available for grant to participants in the form of
incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights,
restricted common shares, restricted stock unit awards that may be settled in
common shares, cash or a combination of the two, unrestricted common
shares and cash-based awards. Under the 2013 Incentive Plan, 600,000
common shares are authorized to be issued and delivered in connection with
grants under the 2013 Incentive Plan. The common shares to be issued and
delivered under the 2013 Incentive Plan may consist of either common shares
currently held or common shares subsequently acquired by Park as treasury
shares, including common shares purchased in the open market or in private
transactions. No awards may be made under the 2013 Incentive Plan after April
22, 2023. At December 31, 2016, 473,725 common shares were available for
future grants under the 2013 Incentive Plan. 

During 2016, 2015, and 2014, Park granted 9,950, 10,150, and 10,200
common shares, respectively, to directors of Park and to directors of Park’s
bank subsidiary PNB (and its divisions) under the 2013 Incentive Plan. The
common shares granted to directors were not subjected to a vesting period and
resulted in expense of $950,000, $963,000, and $801,000 in 2016, 2015, and
2014, respectively, which is included in Professional fees and services on the
Consolidated Statement of Income. 

During 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board 
of Directors of Park granted awards of an aggregate of 41,550, 23,025 and
21,975, respectively, performance based restricted stock units (“PBRSUs”) 
to certain employees of Park and its subsidiaries. The number of PBRSUs
earned or settled will depend on certain performance conditions and are 
also subject to service based vesting. None of the PBRSUs had vested as 
of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, an aggregate of 1,125
PBRSUs had been forfeited.

A summary of changes in Park’s nonvested shares for the year ended December
31, 2016 follows:

18. BENEFIT PLANS
The Corporation has a noncontributory Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the
“Pension Plan”) covering substantially all of the employees of the Corporation
and its subsidiaries. The Pension Plan provides benefits based on an employee’s
years of service and compensation.

There were no pension contributions in 2015 or 2016 and there is no  con -
tribution expected to be made in 2017.

Using an accrual measurement date of December 31, 2016 and 2015, plan
assets and benefit obligation activity for the Pension Plan are listed below:

The investment policy, as established by the Retirement Plan Committee, is 
to invest assets according to the target allocation stated above. Assets will be
reallocated periodically based on the investment strategy of the Retirement 
Plan Committee. The investment policy is reviewed periodically.

The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used to measure the
benefit obligation was 7.00% as of December 31, 2016 and 7.25% as of
December 31, 2015. This return was based on the expected return of each 
of the asset categories, weighted based on the median of the target allocation
for each class.

The accumulated benefit obligation for the Pension Plan was $97.2 million and
$86.1 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

On November 17, 2009, the Park Pension Plan completed the purchase of
115,800 common shares of Park for $7.0 million or $60.45 per share. At
December 31, 2016 and 2015, the fair value of the 115,800 common shares
held by the Pension Plan was $13.9 million, or $119.66 per share and $10.5
million, or $90.48 per share, respectively.

The Pension Plan maintains cash in a PNB savings account. The Pension Plan
cash balance was $2.5 million at December 31, 2016.

GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received by Park for an asset
or paid by Park to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction
between market participants on the measurement date, using the most  advan -
tageous market for the asset or liability. The fair values of equity securities,
consisting of mutual fund investments and common stock (U.S. large cap) held
by the Pension Plan and the fixed income and cash equivalents, are determined
by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level
1 inputs). The fair value of Pension Plan assets at December 31, 2016 was
$167.0 million. At December 31, 2016, $149.2 million of equity investments
and cash in the Pension Plan were categorized as Level 1 inputs; $17.8 million
of plan investments in corporate (U.S. large cap) and U.S. Government spon-
sored entity bonds were categorized as Level 2 inputs, as fair value was based
on quoted market prices of comparable instruments; and no investments were
categorized as Level 3 inputs. The fair value of Pension Plan assets was $153.5
million at December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2015, $135.0 million of invest-
ments in the Pension Plan were categorized as Level 1 inputs; $18.5 million
were categorized as Level 2; and no investments were categorized as Level 3.

The Corporation has a voluntary salary deferral plan covering substantially all 
of the employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Eligible employees
may contribute a portion of their compensation subject to a maximum statutory
limitation. The Corporation provides a matching contribution established
 annually by the Corporation. Contribution expense for the Corporation was 
$1.3 million, $1.2 million, and $1.1 million for 2016, 2015 and 2014,
 respectively.

The Corporation has entered into Supplemental Executive Retirement 
Plan Agreements (the “SERP Agreements”) with certain key officers of the
Corporation and its subsidiaries which provide defined pension benefits in
excess of limits imposed by federal tax law. The accrued benefit cost for the
SERP Agreements totaled $8.8 million and $8.0 million for 2016 and 2015,
respectively. The expense for the Corporation was $1.5 million for 2016, 
$1.1 million for 2015 and $1.5 million for 2014.

19. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant compo-
nents of the Corporation’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

Park performs an analysis to determine if a valuation allowance against
deferred tax assets is required in accordance with GAAP. Management has deter-
mined that it is not required to establish a valuation allowance against 
the December 31, 2016 or 2015 deferred tax assets in accordance with GAAP
since it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be fully utilized 
in future periods.

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably
affect the effective income tax rate in the future periods at December 31, 2016,
2015 and 2014 was $482,000, $432,000 and $413,000, respectively. Park does
not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase 
or decrease during the next year.

The expense related to interest and penalties recorded on unrecognized 
tax benefits in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended
December 31, 2016, and 2015 was $1,500 and $2,000, respectively. There was
no expense related to interest and penalties for the year ended December 31,
2014. The amount accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2016,
2015 and 2014 was $70,500, $69,000 and $67,000, respectively.

in various state jurisdictions. The Corporation is subject to routine audits of 
tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and states in which we conduct
business. No material adjustments have been made on closed federal and 
state tax audits. All tax years ending prior to December 31, 2013 are closed 
to examination by the federal taxing authorities. Generally, all tax years prior 
to December 31, 2012 are closed to examination by state taxing authorities.

Park awarded 41,550, 23,025 and 21,975 PBRSUs to certain employees during
the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The PBRSUs
vest based on service and performance conditions. The dilutive effect of the
PBRSUs was the addition of 72,607, 40,459 and 18,861 common shares for 
the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, Park repurchased
71,700 and 29,700 common shares, respectively, to fund the PBRSUs and
common shares awarded to directors of Park and to directors of Park’s
 subsidiary PNB (and its divisions). No common shares were repurchased
during 2016.

22. DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
Bank regulators limit the amount of dividends a subsidiary bank can declare 
in any calendar year without obtaining prior approval. At December 31, 2016,
approximately $71.7 million of the total shareholders’ equity of PNB was avail-
able for the payment of dividends to the Corporation, without approval by the
applicable regulatory authorities.

23. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CONCENTRATIONS OF
CREDIT RISK

The Corporation is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk 
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.
These financial instruments include loan commitments and standby letters 
of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and
 interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated
 financial statements.

The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments and standby letters
of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The
Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and condi-
tional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Since many of the
loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment
amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The credit
risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved 
in extending loan commitments to customers.

The total amounts of off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk
were as follows:

The loan commitments are generally for variable rates of interest.

The Corporation grants retail, commercial and commercial real estate 
loans to customers primarily located in Ohio. The Corporation evaluates each
customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral
obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation upon extension of credit, is
based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies
but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment,
and income-producing commercial properties.

Although the Corporation has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial 
portion of the borrowers’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon 
the economic conditions in each borrower’s geographic location and industry.

24. LOAN SERVICING
Park serviced sold mortgage loans of $1,330 million at December 31, 2016,
compared to $1,276 million at December 31, 2015 and $1,265 million at
December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2016, $4.1 million of the sold mortgage
loans were sold with recourse compared to $5.4 million at December 31, 2015
and $7.0 million at December 31, 2014. Management closely monitors the
delinquency rates on the mortgage loans sold with recourse. As of December
31, 2016 and 2015, management had established a reserve of $266,000 and
$454,000, respectively, to account for future loan repurchases.

When Park sells mortgage loans with servicing rights retained, servicing rights
are initially recorded at fair value. Park selected the “amortization method” as
permissible within U.S. GAAP, whereby the servicing rights capitalized are amor-
tized in proportion to and over the period of estimated future servicing income
of the underlying loan. At the end of each reporting period, the carrying value 
of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) is assessed for impairment with a com-
parison to fair value. MSRs are carried at the lower of their amortized cost 
or fair value. The amortization of mortgage loan servicing rights is included
within “Other service income” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was $9.3 million and $9.6 million at
December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The fair value of mortgage servicing
rights at December 31, 2016 was established using a discount rate of 13% 
and constant prepayment speeds ranging from 6.2% to 16.8%. The fair value 
of mortgage servicing rights at December 31, 2015 was established using 
a discount rate of 10% and constant prepayment speeds ranging from 6.3% 
to 22.0%.

Servicing fees included in other service income were $3.4 million, $3.4 million
and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014,
respectively.

25. FAIR VALUE
The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The three levels of inputs that Park uses to measure fair value are as follows:
(cid:0) Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in
active markets that Park has the ability to access as of the measurement
date.

(cid:0) Level 2: Level 1 inputs for assets or liabilities that are not actively traded.
Also consists of an observable market price for a similar asset or liability.
This includes the use of “matrix pricing” to value debt securities absent
the exclusive use of quoted prices.

(cid:0) Level 3: Consists of unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair

value when observable market inputs are not available. This could include
the use of internally developed models, financial forecasting and similar
inputs.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
to transfer a liability between market participants at the balance sheet date.
When possible, the Company looks to active and observable markets to price
identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded
in active markets, the Company looks to observable market data for similar
assets and liabilities. However, certain assets and liabilities are not traded in
observable markets and Park must use other valuation methods to develop 
a fair value. The fair value of impaired loans is typically based on the fair value
of the underlying collateral, which is estimated through third-party appraisals
or internal estimates of collateral values in accordance with Park's valuation
requirements per its commercial and real estate loan policies.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2016 or 2015.
Management’s policy is to transfer assets or liabilities from one level to another
when the methodology to obtain the fair value changes such that there are more
or fewer unobservable inputs as of the end of the reporting period.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
 determining fair value of the financial assets and liabilities discussed above:

Investment securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on
quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not avail-
able, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.
For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are
not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows.

Fair value swap: The fair value of the swap agreement entered into with the
purchaser of the Visa Class B shares represents an internally developed estimate
of the exposure based upon probability-weighted potential Visa litigation losses.

Mortgage Interest Rate Lock Commitments (IRLCs): IRLCs are based on
current secondary market pricing and are classified as Level 2.

Mortgage loans held for sale: Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at
their fair value. Mortgage loans held for sale are estimated using security prices
for similar product types and, therefore, are classified in Level 2.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
 determining the fair value of assets and liabilities measured at fair value 
on a nonrecurring basis described below:

Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at 
the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value have been
partially charged off or receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan
losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is generally based on real
estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach 
or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income
approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the inde-
pendent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and
income data available. Such adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the
inputs for determining fair value. Collateral is then adjusted or discounted
based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions
from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge 
of the client and client’s business, also resulting in a Level 3 fair value  classi -
fication. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional
impairment and adjusted accordingly. Additionally, updated independent
 valuations are obtained annually for all impaired loans in accordance with
Company policy.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO): Assets acquired through or in lieu 
of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when
acquired. The carrying value of OREO is not re-measured to fair value on a
recurring basis, but is subject to fair value adjustments when the carrying value
exceeds the fair value, less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based on recent
real estate appraisals and is updated at least annually. These appraisals may
utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including
the comparable sales approach and the income approach. Adjustments are
 routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust
for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such
adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair
value.

Appraisals for both collateral dependent impaired loans and OREO are per-
formed by licensed appraisers. Appraisals are generally obtained to support the
fair value of collateral. In general, there are three types of appraisals, real estate
appraisals, income approach appraisals and lot development loan appraisals,
received by the Company. These are discussed below:

(cid:0) Real estate appraisals typically incorporate measures such as recent sales
prices for comparable properties. Appraisers may make adjustments to
the sales prices of the comparable properties as deemed appropriate
based on the age, condition or general characteristics of the subject
 property. Management generally applies a 15% discount to real estate
appraised values which management expects will cover all disposition
costs (including selling costs). This 15% is based on historical discounts
to appraised values on sold OREO properties.

(cid:0) Income approach appraisals typically incorporate the annual net operat-
ing income of the business divided by an appropriate capitalization rate,
as determined by the appraiser. Management generally applies a 15%
 discount to income approach appraised values which management
expects will cover all disposition costs (including selling costs).
(cid:0) Lot development loan appraisals are typically performed using a

 discounted cash flow analysis. Appraisers determine an anticipated
absorption period and a discount rate that takes into account an investor’s
required rate of return based on recent comparable sales. Management
generally applies a 6% discount to lot development appraised values,
which is an additional discount above the net present value calculation
included in the appraisal, to account for selling costs.

MSRs: MSRs are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. MSRs do not trade in
active, open markets with readily observable prices. For example, sales of MSRs
do occur, but precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available. 
As such, management, with the assistance of a third-party specialist, determines
fair value based on the discounted value of the future cash flows estimated to be
received. Significant inputs include the discount rate and assumed prepayment
speeds utilized. The calculated fair value is then compared to market values
where possible to ascertain the reasonableness of the valuation in relation 
to current market expectations for similar products. Accordingly, MSRs are
classified as Level 2.

The following tables present assets and liabilities measured at fair value on 
a nonrecurring basis. Collateral dependent impaired loans are carried at fair
value if they have been charged down to fair value or if a specific valuation
allowance has been established. A new cost basis is established at the time 
a property is initially recorded in OREO. OREO properties are carried at fair
value if a devaluation has been taken to the property’s value subsequent to the
initial measurement.

The income (expense) from credit adjustments related to impaired loans
carried at fair value for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014
was $0.9 million, $(2.1) million, and $(3.0) million, respectively.

MSRs totaled $9.3 million at December 31, 2016. Of this $9.3 million MSR
 carrying balance, $6.8 million was recorded at fair value and included a
 valuation allowance of $0.7 million. The remaining $2.5 million was recorded
at cost, as the fair value exceeded cost at December 31, 2016. At December 31,
2015, MSRs totaled $9.0 million. Of this $9.0 million MSR carrying balance,
$1.9 million was recorded at fair value and included a valuation allowance of
$0.5 million. The remaining $7.1 million was recorded at cost, as the fair value
exceeded cost at December 31, 2015. The (expense) income related to MSRs
carried at fair value for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014
was $(0.2) million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Total OREO held by Park at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $13.9 million
and $18.7 million, respectively. Approximately 50% and 46% of OREO held by
Park at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, was carried at fair value
due to fair value adjustments made subsequent to the initial OREO measure-
ment. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, OREO held at fair value, less estimated
selling costs, amounted to $6.9 million and $8.5 million, respectively. The net
expense related to OREO fair value adjustments was $0.6 million, $1.6 million
and $2.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014,
respectively.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in esti-
mating its fair value disclosures for assets and liabilities not discussed above:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the
Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and short-term instruments approximate
those assets’ fair values.

Other investments: FHLB stock and FRB stock within other investments are
carried at their respective redemption values as it is not practical to calculate
their fair values. Additional investments within this category are carried at their
cost basis as these investments do not have a readily determinable fair value and
Park does not have the ability to influence the operating or financial decisions
of the investee.

Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with 
no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
The fair values for certain mortgage loans (e.g., one-to-four family residential)
are based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold in conjunction with
securitization transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The
fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses,
based upon interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms 
to borrowers of similar credit quality. The methods utilized to estimate fair
value do not necessarily represent an exit price.

Off-balance sheet instruments: Fair values for the Corporation’s loan com-
mitments and standby letters of credit are based on the fees currently charged

to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the
agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The carrying amount and
fair value are not material.

Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g.,
 interest and non-interest checking, savings, and money market accounts) 
are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting 
date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts for variable-rate,
fixed-term certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting
date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a
 discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being
offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities
of time deposits.

Short-term borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased,
borrowings under repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings
approximate their fair values.

Long-term debt: Fair values for long-term debt are estimated using a
 discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being
offered on long-term debt to a schedule of monthly maturities.

Subordinated notes: Fair values for subordinated notes are estimated using 
a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rate spreads currently
being offered on similar debt structures to a schedule of monthly maturities.

26. CAPITAL RATIOS
Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital
ratios for banks, thrifts and bank holding companies. During the first quarter of
2015, Park adopted the Basel III regulatory capital framework as approved by
the federal banking agencies. The adoption of this framework modified the cal-
culation of the various capital ratios, added an additional ratio, common equity
tier 1, and revised the adequately and well capitalized thresholds. Additionally,
under this framework, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions,
including dividend payments, Park must hold a capital conservation buffer
above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital  con -
servation buffer is being phased in from 0.0% for 2015 to 2.50% by 2019. 
The capital conservation buffer was 0.625% for 2016. The amounts shown
below as the adequately capitalized ratio plus capital  conservation buffer
includes the fully phased-in 2.50% buffer.

PNB met each of the well-capitalized ratio guidelines at December 31, 2016.
The following table indicates the capital ratios for PNB and Park at December
31, 2016 and 2015.

Failure to meet the minimum requirements above could cause the FRB to take
action. PNB is also subject to the capital requirements of its primary regulator,
the OCC. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Park and PNB were well-capital-
ized and met all capital requirements to which each was then subject. There are
no conditions or events since PNB's most recent regulatory report filings, that
management believes have changed the risk categories for PNB.

27. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Corporation is a financial holding company headquartered in Newark,
Ohio. The operating segments for the Corporation are its chartered national
bank subsidiary, PNB (headquartered in Newark, Ohio), SEPH and GFSC.

GAAP requires management to disclose information about the different types 
of business activities in which a company engages and also information on the
different economic environments in which a company operates, so that the

users of the financial statements can better understand a company’s perform-
ance, better understand the potential for future cash flows, and make more
informed judgments about the company as a whole. Park’s current operating
segments are in line with GAAP as: (i) discrete financial information is available
for each operating segment and (ii) the segments are aligned with internal
reporting to Park’s Chief Executive Officer and President, who is the chief
 operating decision-maker.
