Credit Costs Decline Across Most Loan Portfolios

CHARLOTTE, April 16, 2010 - Bank of America Corporation today reported first-quarter 2010 net income
of US$3.2 billion compared with a net loss of US$194 million in the fourth
quarter and net income of US$4.2 billion a year earlier. After preferred
dividends, the company earned US$0.28 per diluted share in the first quarter,
up from a loss of US$0.60 per share in the fourth quarter and earnings of
US$0.44 per share in the first quarter of 2009.

Two factors primarily drove results in the first quarter:

    - Provision for credit losses fell by US$3.6 billion from the year-ago
      period, reflecting an improvement in credit quality.
    - Strong capital markets activity, including record sales and trading
      driven by industry-leading corporate and investment banking positions,
      helped drive results for Global Banking and Markets.

"With each day that passes, the 2010 story appears to be one of
continuing credit recovery, and our results reflect a gradually improving
economy," said Chief Executive Officer and President Brian T. Moynihan. "Our
customers - individuals, companies, and institutional investors -
increasingly see the value of our integrated capabilities. We also are seeing
ample indications that those integrated capabilities hold promise for
long-term shareholder value."

First-Quarter 2010 Business Highlights

    - Bank of America Merrill Lynch ranked No. 1 in both global high-yield
      debt and leveraged loans and No. 2 in overall global and U.S. net
      investment banking revenues with a 7 percent market share, according to
      Dealogic first-quarter 2010 league tables.
    - Average retail deposits during the quarter increased US$15.2 billion,
      or 2 percent, from a year earlier, paced by strong organic growth in
      Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management as momentum in the affluent
      customer base continued.
    - Consumer referrals and sales to Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management
      clients accelerated in the first quarter. Approximately 60,000 lending
      and deposit products were sold to Merrill Lynch clients. Referrals
      between Global Wealth and Investment Management and the company's
      commercial and corporate businesses increased 56 percent compared with
      the fourth quarter of 2009.
    - During the quarter, Bank of America extended US$150 billion in credit,
      according to preliminary data. Credit extensions included US$70 billion
      in first mortgages, US$56 billion in commercial non-real estate, US$10
      billion in commercial real estate, US$3 billion in domestic consumer
      and small business card, US$2 billion in home equity products and US$9
      billion in other consumer credit. Commercial credit extensions include
      a significant number of credit renewals.
    - Bank of America funded US$69.5 billion in first mortgages, helping more
      than 320,000 people either purchase homes or refinance existing
      mortgages. This funding included US$17.4 billion in mortgages made to
      nearly 115,000 low- and moderate-income borrowers. Approximately 37
      percent of first mortgages were for home purchases.

Initiatives to Help Customers

    - Bank of America introduced several initiatives during the quarter to
      help customers. The company will eliminate debit point-of-sale
      transactions that would result in an overdraft if a customer does not
      have enough funds in their account.
    - The company introduced an earned principal forgiveness approach to
      modifying certain types of mortgages that are severely underwater to
      expand the company's existing aggressive homeowner retention programs.
    - Bank of America was the first to extend credit card assistance programs
      to small businesses.
    - Since the start of 2008, Bank of America and previously Countrywide
      have provided home ownership retention opportunities to customers for
      approximately 819,000 home loan modification transactions. This includes
      569,000 loan modifications and approximately 251,000 consumers who were
      in trial-period modifications under the government's Making Home
      Affordable program at March 31, 2010. During the quarter, 77,000 loan
      modifications were completed with total unpaid principal balances of
      US$17.8 billion, including 33,000 customers who converted from
      trial-period to permanent modifications under the government's Making
      Home Affordable program.
    - Bank of America Home Loans expanded its default management staff by
      nearly 7 percent to more than 16,000 during the quarter to help
      customers experiencing difficulty with their home loans.
    - Bank of America issued clarity statements on a number of consumer
      products to help customers better understand the products they use.
    - Bank of America helped more than 200,000 Global Card Services account
      holders by reducing their interest rates and providing more affordable
      payment terms during the quarter.

"We will continue to support our customers through these and other
initiatives aimed at helping restore their financial health," Moynihan said.
"We want to ensure quality relationships with our customers and earn their
trust and future business. This will benefit not just our customers, but our
company and our shareholders."

First-Quarter 2010 Financial Summary

Revenue and Expense

Revenue net of interest expense on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE)(1)
basis declined 11 percent to US$32.3 billion from US$36.1 billion a year ago.
Revenue declines were driven by the absence of year-earlier credit-related
gains on Merrill Lynch structured notes, the sale of an equity investment and
lower mortgage banking volume and income.

Revenue was up 27 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009.

Net interest income on an FTE basis was US$14.1 billion, compared with
US$12.8 billion a year earlier. On a managed FTE basis, net interest income
declined from US$15.6 billion a year earlier as loan demand decreased and
charge-offs reduced loan balances. The increase in reported net interest
income was primarily due to the adoption of new consolidation accounting
guidance effective Jan. 1, which moved net assets of approximately US$100
billion
onto the balance sheet. The change, while having no material impact
on net income, primarily affected net interest income, card income and the
provision for loan and lease losses. The net interest yield widened 23 basis
points to 2.93 percent, but average loans declined by 2 percent, reflecting
economic conditions and lower demand.

Noninterest income declined 22 percent to US$18.2 billion from US$23.3
billion
a year ago. Lower mortgage banking income and decreases in both card
income and equity investment income drove the decline. Mortgage banking
income declined, driven by less favorable mortgage servicing rights hedging
results and lower production volume and margins. Card income declined due to
the recent adoption of new accounting guidance and the CARD Act, while equity
investment income was impacted by the absence of the gain a year earlier on
the sale of China Construction Bank (CCB) shares. However, noninterest income
was up 35 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009, reflecting record sales
and trading revenue in the current quarter.

Noninterest expense increased 5 percent to US$17.8 billion from US$17.0
billion
a year earlier as personnel costs and other general operating
expenses rose. Pretax merger and restructuring charges declined to US$521
million
from US$765 million a year earlier.

The efficiency ratio on an FTE basis was 55.05 percent, compared with
47.12 percent a year earlier.

    resulting in the addition of approximately $103 billion in loans to
    the balance sheet on January 1, 2010.
    (2) Net charge-off/loss ratios are calculated as annualized held

    outstanding held or managed loans and leases during the period.
    (3) Prior periods are shown on a managed basis, which prior to the

    in net charge-offs post adoption.
    (4) Nonperforming loans, leases and foreclosed properties ratios are
    calculated as nonperforming loans, leases and foreclosed properties
    divided by outstanding loans, leases and foreclosed properties at
    the end of the period.
    (5) Allowance for loan and lease losses ratios are calculated as
    allowance for loan and lease losses divided by loans and leases
    outstanding at the end of the period.
    Note: Ratios do not include loans measured under the fair value
    option.

Credit quality continued to improve during the quarter, with net losses
declining in most consumer portfolios. Credit costs, however, remain high
amid relatively weak global economic conditions.

Credit quality across most commercial portfolios showed signs of
improvement with criticized and nonperforming loans decreasing from the prior
quarter. Net charge-offs in the commercial portfolios declined across a broad
range of borrowers and industries.

Net charge-offs were $2.4 billion higher than the fourth quarter of 2009,
driven mainly by the adoption of new accounting guidance that resulted in
securitized credit card loans and other loans coming back onto the company's
balance sheet. Also contributing to the increase were charge-offs on certain
modified collateral-dependent consumer real estate loans. Excluding these
factors, net charge-offs would have been $1.3 billion lower. Net charge-offs
in the first quarter of $10.8 billion, or 4.44 percent, which reflect the new
accounting guidance, are comparable with managed net losses of $11.3 billion,
or 4.54 percent, in the prior quarter. Nonperforming loans, leases and
foreclosed properties were $35.9 billion, compared with $35.7 billion at
December 31, 2009.

The provision for credit losses was $9.8 billion, $305 million lower than
the fourth quarter of 2009 and $3.6 billion lower than the same period a year
earlier. Excluding the $10.8 billion increase to the reserve for credit
losses associated with adopting the new accounting guidance, which did not
initially impact provision, reserves were reduced $992 million during the
quarter. This compares with a $1.7 billion addition to the reserve for credit
losses in the fourth quarter and $6.4 billion a year earlier. The reduction
from the fourth quarter of 2009 was primarily due to improved delinquencies
and lower bankruptcies in consumer and small business products in Global Card
Services and the stabilization of commercial portfolios. These were partially
offset by higher reserve additions in the consumer real estate portfolios
amid continued stress in the housing market, including reserve additions for
purchased credit-impaired consumer portfolios obtained through acquisitions.

    press release.

Capital ratios were negatively impacted from the fourth quarter of 2009
primarily due to the adoption of new accounting guidance on consolidation.
The company's liquidity position strengthened during the quarter as customers
continued to reduce debt. Cash and equivalents rose more than $20 billion.
The company's total global excess liquidity sources rose by approximately $50
billion
to more than $260 billion. The company's time to required funding
stands at 24 months.

During the quarter, a cash dividend of $0.01 per common share was paid
and the company reported $348 million in preferred dividends. Period-end
common shares issued and outstanding were 10.03 billion for the first quarter
of 2010, 8.65 billion for the fourth quarter of 2009 and 6.40 billion for the
first quarter of 2009. The increase in outstanding shares was driven
primarily by the conversion of common equivalent shares into common stock in
the first quarter of 2010.

Deposits net income rose 14 percent as the 8 percent increase in revenue
was partially offset by increased noninterest expense. Revenue increased
mainly due to growth in deposits as well as improved spreads. Noninterest
income remained relatively flat. Expenses rose as a higher percentage of the
retail distribution costs shifted to Deposits from the other consumer
businesses.

Average deposits rose 10 percent, or $37.9 billion, from a year ago due
to the transfer of $39.7 billion in certain client deposits from Global
Wealth and Investment Management and $15.2 billion of organic growth. Organic
growth was driven by the continuing need of customers to manage their
liquidity as illustrated by growth in higher spread deposits. The increase
was partially offset by the expected decline in higher-yielding Countrywide
deposits.

Global Card Services reported net income of $952 million as credit costs
declined, reflecting continued improvement in the U.S. economy. Net revenue
declined 9 percent to $6.8 billion due to lower net interest income from the
decline in average loans and lower fee income resulting from the
implementation of the CARD Act.

Provision for credit losses decreased $4.7 billion to $3.5 billion from a
year ago as lower delinquencies and lower expected losses from the improved
economic outlook drove reserve reductions during the quarter.

Expenses decreased as a higher percentage of the retail distribution
costs shifted to Deposits from Global Card Services.

The net loss in Home Loans and Insurance widened to $2.1 billion as
higher credit costs continued to negatively impact results. Net revenue
decreased 31 percent due to lower mortgage banking income, driven by less
favorable mortgage servicing rights results and lower production volume and
margins resulting from a decrease in refinance activity.

The provision for credit losses rose to $3.6 billion, driven by higher
reserve additions amid continued stress in the housing market. Also driving
the increase was the impact of certain modified loans where carrying value is
based on the underlying collateral value and higher home equity net
charge-offs related to loans that were consolidated in the quarter as a
result of new accounting guidance. These increases were partially offset by
lower reserve additions on the Countrywide home equity purchased
credit-impaired portfolio, compared with the year-ago period.

Noninterest expense rose to $3.3 billion mostly due to expenses related
to increased litigation costs, default management staff, vendor expenses and
loss mitigation efforts.

Effective January 1, 2010, Bank of America realigned the Global Banking
and Global Markets business segments. The segments are now referred to as
Global Commercial Banking and Global Banking and Markets. Prior period
amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Global Commercial Banking returned to profitability, recording net income
of $713 million, driven by lower credit costs and increased revenues.

Net revenue rose as improved loan spreads on new, renewed and amended
facilities drove an increase in net interest income. The increase was
partially offset by reduced loan balances. Net revenue also benefited from
strong deposit growth, as clients remain very liquid, partially offset by
narrower spreads on deposits and lower treasury services transaction volumes
that reflect current economic conditions.

The provision for credit losses decreased to $916 million on lower credit
costs in the retail dealer-related portfolio and stabilization across most
commercial portfolios.

Average loan balances decreased $23.7 billion as loan demand remained
weak. Average deposit balances continued to grow, increasing $24.9 billion as
clients sought to increase liquidity.

Note: Global Commercial Banking clients include middle-market and
business banking companies, commercial real estate firms and governments and
are generally defined as companies with sales up to $2 billion. Lending
products and services include commercial loans and commitment facilities,
real estate lending, asset-based lending and indirect consumer loans.
Treasury solutions include treasury management, foreign exchange and
short-term investing options.

Global Banking and Markets net income increased $709 million to $3.2
billion
, driven by record performance in sales and trading. Revenue increased
by $795 million as market conditions improved and the impact of writedowns on
legacy assets decreased from a year earlier. Noninterest expense declined
$338 million due to merger efficiencies and the shift in compensation that
delivers a greater portion of incentive pay over time.

Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities revenue of $5.8 billion was
primarily driven by sales and trading revenues. Revenue rose on improved
market conditions, increased liquidity, tighter credit spreads and the
reduced impact of writedowns on legacy assets.

Equities revenue rose to $1.7 billion primarily driven by sales and
trading revenues of $1.5 billion. Higher revenue was driven by effective
market positioning and related equity derivative trading gains.

Corporate and Investment Banking revenue of $2.3 billion included
corporate banking revenue of $1.6 billion. Corporate banking revenue was flat
year over year, as higher credit related revenue was offset by lower treasury
services revenue. Investment banking revenue, which rose 18 percent to $1.2
billion
, was shared between the subsegments of Global Banking and Markets.
The increase reflected the strength of the Bank of America Merrill Lynch
platform and was driven by debt and equity issuances.

Note: Global Banking and Markets includes the results of the Fixed
Income, Currency and Commodities, Equities, and Corporate and Investment
Banking businesses and the core banking products to large corporate clients
that are defined as having sales in excess of $2 billion, as well as the
results related to the Merchant Services joint venture.

Global Wealth and Investment Management net income rose to $497 million,
driven mainly by higher investment and brokerage activity. Net revenue
increased to $4.4 billion on the absence of support for certain cash funds
and higher investment and brokerage service income, partially offset by lower
net interest income.

Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management net revenue declined $202 million
to $3.1 billion
from a year earlier, mainly due to the impact of the
migration of certain deposits and loan balances to the Deposits and Home
Loans and Insurance businesses and lower residual net interest income. These
impacts to net interest income were partially offset by improvements in
investment and brokerage income due to higher valuations in the equity
markets and increased transactional activity.

U.S. Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management net revenue of $688
million
was flat as higher valuations in the equity markets and increased
deposit spreads were offset by net outflows and lower residual net interest
income.

Columbia Management net revenue increased $127 million to $277 million,
driven by the absence of support provided to certain cash funds and the
impact of higher valuations in the equity markets. These were partially
offset by a reduction in revenues, driven by net outflows in the cash
complex.

Global Wealth and Investment Management also includes the results related
to the Retirement and Philanthropic Services business and the economic
ownership interest related to the company's investment in BlackRock, Inc.

All Other

All Other reported a net loss of $810 million due to lower net revenue,
which was further impacted by increases in provision for credit losses and
noninterest expense. Effective January 1, 2010, due to the recent adoption of
new consolidation accounting guidance, the securitization offsets for net
interest income, card income and the provision for credit losses are no
longer recorded as part of All Other. Results were also impacted by
other-than-temporary impairment charges primarily related to non-agency
collateralized mortgage obligations. Provision for credit losses was driven
by the impact of new accounting guidance and higher credit costs in the
discontinued real estate purchased credit-impaired portfolio, partially
offset by lower reserve builds related to the residential mortgage portfolio.
Noninterest expense increased due to higher personnel, general operating and
other expenses.

All Other consists primarily of equity investments, the residential
mortgage portfolio associated with asset and liability management (ALM)
activities, the residual impact of the cost allocation process, merger and
restructuring charges, intersegment eliminations, fair value adjustments
related to certain Merrill Lynch structured notes and the results of certain
consumer finance, investment management and commercial lending businesses
that are being liquidated. In prior periods, All Other also included the
offsetting securitization impact to present Global Card Services on a managed
basis. For more information and detailed reconciliation, please refer to the
data pages supplied with this press release. In addition, All Other includes
the results of First Republic Bank, which was acquired as part of the Merrill
Lynch acquisition.

    measure used by management in operating the business that management
    believes provides investors with a more accurate picture of the
    interest margin for comparative purposes. (See Reconciliation to
    GAAP Financial Measures on page 4).

    Reconciliation to GAAP Financial Measures
    (Dollars in millions, shares in thousands)

    The Corporation evaluates its business based upon a FTE basis which
    is a non-GAAP measure. Total revenue, net of interest expense,
    includes net interest income on a FTE basis and noninterest income.
    The adjustment of net interest income to a FTE basis results in a
    corresponding increase in income tax expense. The Corporation also
    evaluates its business based upon ratios that utilize tangible
    equity which is a non-GAAP measure. The tangible equity ratio
    represents shareholders' equity less goodwill and intangible assets
    (excluding mortgage servicing rights), net of related deferred tax
    liabilities divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible
    assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights), net of related
    deferred tax liabilities. The tangible common equity ratio
    represents common shareholders' equity plus any Common Equivalent
    Securities less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage
    servicing rights), net of related deferred tax liabilities divided
    by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding
    mortgage servicing rights), net of related deferred tax liabilities.
    Tangible book value per share of common stock represents ending
    common shareholders' equity plus any Common Equivalent Securities
    less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing
    rights), net of related ending common shareholders' equity plus any
    common equivalent securities less goodwill and intangible assets
    (excluding mortgage servicing rights), net of related deferred tax
    liabilities divided by ending common shares outstanding plus the
    number of common shares issued upon conversion of common equivalent
    shares.  These measures are used to evaluate the Corporation's use
    of equity (i.e., capital). We believe the use of these non-GAAP
    measures provides additional   any Common Equivalent Securities less
    goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing
    rights), net of related deferred tax liabilities divided by total
    assets less clarity in assessing the results of the Corporation.

    Other companies may define or calculate supplemental financial data
    differently.  See the tables below for corresponding reconciliations
    to GAAP financial measures at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and
    March 31, 2009. We believe the use of these non-GAAP measures
    provides additional clarity in assessing the results of the
    Corporation.

    Reconciliation - Managed to GAAP
    --------------------------------
    (Dollars in millions)

     The Corporation reports Global Card Services current period results in
     accordance with new accounting guidance on consolidation of VIEs and
     transfers of financial assets. Prior period results are presented on a
     managed basis. Managed basis assumes that securitized loans were not
     sold and presents earnings on these loans in a manner similar to the way
     loans that have not been sold (i.e., held loans) are presented. Loan
     securitization is an alternative funding process that is used by the
     Corporation to diversify funding sources. In prior periods, loan
     securitization removed loans from the Consolidated Balance Sheet through
     the sale of loans to an off-balance sheet qualifying special purpose
     entity which was excluded from the Corporation's Consolidated Financial
     Statements in accordance with GAAP applicable at the time.

     The performance of the managed portfolio is important in understanding
     Global Card Services results as it demonstrates the results of the
     entire portfolio serviced by the business. Securitized loans continue to
     be serviced by the business and are subject to the same underwriting
     standards and ongoing monitoring as held loans. In addition, excess
     servicing income is exposed to similar credit risk and repricing of
     interest rates as held loans. In prior periods, Global Card Services
     managed income statement line items differed from a held basis reported
     as follows:

    -- Managed net interest income included Global Card Services net interest
       income on held loans and interest income on the securitized loans less
       the internal funds transfer pricing allocation related to securitized
       loans.
    -- Managed noninterest income includes Global Card Services noninterest
       income on a held basis less the reclassification of certain components
       of card income (e.g., excess servicing income) to record securitized
       net interest income and provision for credit losses. Noninterest
       income, both on a held and managed basis, also included the impact of
       adjustments to the interest-only strips that were recorded in card
       income as management managed this impact within Global Card Services.
    -- Provision for credit losses represented the provision for managed
       credit losses on held loans combined with realized credit losses
       associated with the securitized loan portfolio.
