Proxies in the accompanying form may be revoked or superseded at any
time before they are voted by a proxy of a later date, or by written
notification received by the Secretary of the Corporation prior to the Annual
Meeting. Attendance in person at the Annual Meeting does not of itself revoke a
proxy theretofore given, but any stockholder who attends the Annual Meeting in
person is free to revoke any proxy theretofore given and vote his or her shares

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The Bylaws of the Corporation provide that the Board of Directors will
be divided into three equal classes of Directors. Each class of Directors is
elected to serve a 3 year staggered term, with the term of one class expiring
at each Annual Meeting. The number of Directors on the current Board is fixed
at 15. The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders again set the
total number of Directors at 15.
Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders
of the Corporation's common stock at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is
present. Under the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and
under Delaware law, abstentions and broker non-votes will not have the effect
of votes in opposition to a Director.
Proxies in the accompanying form will (unless a contrary direction is
indicated therein) be voted to elect the nominees named below (who have been
nominated by the present Board of Directors) as Directors to serve subject to
the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Corporation. If elected,
each will serve for a term of three years and until a successor is duly elected
and qualified.
If any of the nominees listed are not available for election at the
Annual Meeting (a contingency which the Board of Directors of the Corporation
does not now foresee), it is the intention of the Board of Directors to
recommend the election of such other persons as the Board may select in order
to fill such vacancies. Proxies in the accompanying form will be voted for the
election of such other persons unless authority to vote such proxies in the
election of Directors has been withheld.
The nominees designated by the Board of Directors are named below,

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
REPORT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
The Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
"Committee") is composed entirely of independent, outside Directors. The
Committee has been designated by the Board of Directors with the responsibility
for administering the executive compensation program of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries.
The philosophy underlying the administration of the Corporation's
executive compensation program is an appropriate linkage between executive
compensation, financial and operating performance, and the creation of
stockholder value. Key objectives of this philosophy include:
o providing a competitive pay system to attract, retain and
motivate executives;
o establishing compensation plans which emphasize
performance-based pay opportunities, as measured by operating,
financial and strategic objectives and goals;
o providing longer-term, equity-based incentives for executives
to ensure they are motivated and rewarded for growth in equity
value and generating higher returns to the stockholders
relative to comparable financial institutions.
The Corporation's present executive compensation program was
established in 1991 and 1992 with the assistance of an independent consultant.
In establishing the program, the Committee took into consideration the total
compensation paid to executives of a peer group of companies (the "Initial Peer
Group") recommended by the consultants. The companies chosen for the Initial
Peer Group were comparably-sized or larger regional bank holding companies,
including the one comparable bank holding company in Hawaii. Compensation
levels were adjusted for relative size of the companies in the Initial Peer
Group. The companies included some, but not all, of the companies which
comprise the S&P Major Regional Bank Index shown in the Comparison of Five-Year
Cumulative Stockholder Return performance graph included in this Proxy
Statement.
The objective of the new executive compensation program was to set the
total compensation package to be competitive with the companies in the Initial
Peer Group, maintaining the existing base salary program while emphasizing
performance-based pay opportunities which would allow compensation to increase
as the Corporation's financial performance improves. The Committee, however,
does not obtain surveys annually to determine whether actual compensation
packages granted each year are at, below or above the median compensation
packages of the companies that were in the Initial Peer Group, and has based
its compensation decisions since the establishment of the current programs
principally on individual factors relating to the Corporation and its
executives as described below.

11
The compensation program adopted by the Committee includes three
components designed to implement the foregoing objectives: (1) base salaries;
(2) annual incentives; and (3) long-term incentives. Each of these components
of compensation is discussed separately below.
BASE SALARIES
Base salaries of executive officers are set by the Committee in
December of each year for the following year. The Committee takes into
consideration factors such as varying levels of responsibility, individual
performance, consistency and fairness, cost of living increases, the
Corporation's operating results and financial performance and cost control. The
Committee places no particular weight on, or relative importance to, any single
factor in adjusting base salaries.
ANNUAL INCENTIVES
Annual incentives for executive officers are provided pursuant to the
Incentive Plan for Key Executives (the "IPKE"), which provides cash and
deferred bonuses based upon the Corporation's profitability and the executive's
performance over the course of the year. The IPKE promotes the Corporation's
pay-for-performance philosophy by providing executives with direct financial
incentives, in the form of annual cash bonuses or restricted stock awards, to
achieve corporate and individual performance goals. Moreover, annual bonus
opportunities allow the Corporation to communicate specific goals that are of
primary importance during the coming year and to motivate executives to achieve
these goals. The IPKE was originally approved by the stockholders in 1969 and
has subsequently been amended several times by the stockholders.
The total amount of bonuses available under the IPKE is a bonus pool
equal to 2-1/2% of consolidated income before income taxes and securities
gains for the performance year. Guideline percentages of base salary were set,
increasing as the executives' pay grades increase. In allocating the bonus
pool, the Committee grants bonuses above or below guideline percentages based
upon the Committee members' judgment as to individual performance and relative
levels of responsibility.
IPKE bonuses to the named executive officers for 1993 were established
in accordance with the general procedures set forth above. In 1993, the
Corporation's performance (as measured by profitability) was 5.8% lower than
the level of performance attained in 1992. Bonuses to the named executive
officers for 1993 were at the guideline percentages of base salary. Total
bonuses under the IPKE for 1993 were lower by 8-1/2% as compared to 1992.
Executive officers are also eligible to receive annual bonuses under
the Corporation's Profit Sharing Plan and Cash Bonus Plan, which is a plan with
fixed profit sharing formulas in which all eligible employees of the
Corporation participate and which is not administered by the Committee.
LONG-TERM INCENTIVES
Long-term incentives are provided in the form of cash awards under the
Corporation's Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") and grants of stock options
under the Stock Incentive Plan (the "SIP"). In keeping with the Corporation's
commitment to provide a total compensation package which places a significant
amount of pay "at-risk", long-term incentives (plus awards under the IPKE)
comprise approximately 40 percent of the value of an executive's total
compensation package if the Corporation meets its target performance levels.
The Corporation's LTIP applies to a group of key executives approved
by the Committee, much smaller than the group eligible for IPKE and SIP awards.
It is intended to provide incentive compensation to participants based on the
Corporation's ability to sustain a target level of performance over a
three-year performance cycle. Under the current formula LTIP awards are based
on target percentages (ranging from 10% to 35%) of participants' average base
salary over the three-year performance cycle. If the Corporation does not
achieve a threshold average return on equity ("ROE") of 15% over the three-year
performance cycle, no awards are payable under the LTIP. When the Corporation's
ROE exceeds the threshold level, the target awards to participants are adjusted
by a factor (ranging from 0% to 140%) based on the Corporation's financial
performance compared to a peer group, as measured by average return on assets
("ROA"), and the Corporation's asset growth over the period. Relative ROA and
growth of assets are equally weighted in the award determination. In the
Committee's judgement, these performance measures are closely linked to
stockholder value creation and reinforce desired long-term strategies and
performance. In addition, LTIP awards to participants may be adjusted by the
Committee based on that individual's performance (from 0% to 140% of the
10
12
individual's targeted amount as adjusted for the Corporation's performance).
The peer group used for LTIP purposes is comprised of regional bank
holding companies similar to the Corporation in size, performance and nature of
operations. The group, which is not the same as the Initial Peer Group,
includes some, but not all of the companies in the S&P Major Regional Bank
Index.
The Corporation has completed the first performance cycle for the
period 1991-1993. The Corporation's average ROE for the period was 15.85%
(which therefore exceeded the current threshold for awards to be earned) and
its average annual asset growth over the period was 9.7%. When information
regarding the financial performance of the peer group becomes available during
1994, the Committee will determine the appropriate LTIP participants' payouts,
based on the Corporation's ROA compared to that of the peer group as well as
the performance of the individual participants. The amount of the LTIP awards
determined by the Committee in 1994 in respect of the 1991-1993 cycle will be
reported in the proxy statement for the 1995 annual meeting of stockholders.
Under the SIP approved by the stockholders, stock options are granted
at an option exercise price not less than the fair market value of the
Corporation's stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, stock options have value
only if the stock price appreciates from the date the options are granted. This
design focuses executives on the creation of stockholder value over the long
term and encourages equity ownership in the Corporation.
Guidelines for setting the size of stock option grants were set by the
Committee at the time the SIP was established, based on the recommendation of
the independent consultant. The guideline for stock option grants is a
percentage of base salary (ranging from 10% to 85%), based upon officer grades
(increasing as grade increases), resulting in a dollar target which is then
converted into the target number of shares by dividing the dollar target by the
Corporation's stock price on the date of grant. The size of individual annual
awards is increased or decreased from the guideline level based on individual
performance at the sole discretion of the Committee.
CORPORATE PERFORMANCE IN 1993
The Corporation's net income for 1993 represented the second best year
in the Corporation's 135-year history. Net income totalled $81,857,000 in 1993
compared to $86,900,000 in 1992, the Corporation's best year ever.
Despite the challenges created by a continued economic slowdown in the
United States and Japan during 1993, which resulted in Hawaii's worst recession
since statehood, the Committee believes the actual performance results are
commendable. The Corporation's ROA of 1.21% for 1993 continued to exceed the
regional bank average. Although the Corporation's ROE was lower than the
regional bank average for the first time since prior to 1988, this was
attributable in part to the Corporation's strong capital levels. However, the
Corporation did not meet its budgeted financial goals in 1993 and given the
Corporation's policy of closely linking performance and compensation, these
results affect the level of executive compensation in 1993 and 1994 as
discussed in this Report. As discussed above, the Corporation's ROA and ROE
were among the factors considered by the Committee in their determination of
base salary levels for the named executive officers and will be factors in the
setting of LTIP awards for the performance cycle 1991-1993.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
Mr. Dods has been Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation since
October, 1989. In addition to his corporate responsibilities, Mr. Dods is
regarded as one of Hawaii's premier business leaders and is also respected for
his numerous community, charitable, and educational activities. His involvement
in these activities has contributed considerably to the favorable image of the
Corporation in the community.
BASE SALARY In December, 1992, the Committee met to consider Mr. Dods'
performance in 1992 and his base salary for 1993. Based on the fact that the
Corporation exceeded its financial goals for 1992 and had reported
11
13
record results for that year, and in light of Mr. Dods' role in achieving these
results, the Committee set Mr. Dods' base salary for 1993 at $625,000. The 1993
IPKE and SIP awards were, and the LTIP award for the performance cycle
1991-1993 will be, in part affected by this base salary, because awards under
the plans are based in part upon targeted percentages of base salary.
In December, 1993, the Committee reviewed Mr. Dods' performance and
concluded that his management performance was outstanding and that well
conceived plans were executed, including corporate acquisitions and the
development of a new corporate headquarters building. Based on those factors
and the Corporation's sustained financial performance during a difficult
economic period, the Committee concluded that a merit increase in base pay was
warranted. However, in view of the economic conditions facing the Corporation
and the emphasis on cost controls, Mr. Dods requested that his base salary and
the base salaries of the other four executive officers listed in the Summary
Compensation Table, Messrs. Hoag, Karr, Ching, and Horner, not be increased for
1994. Accordingly, the Committee set Mr. Dods' base salary at $625,000 for
1994, which is the same as it was in 1993. The base salaries for the other key
officers noted above also will remain at 1993 levels.
ANNUAL INCENTIVES In 1993, the Committee awarded Mr. Dods $312,500 under the
IPKE based on its discretionary assessment of the same factors noted above.
This award was at the IPKE's guideline percentage of base salary. The Committee
concluded that the amount was appropriate in light of the consistent success of
the Corporation and Mr. Dods' individual contributions. The amount was less
than the $375,000 annual incentive award earned by Mr. Dods in 1992, because
the bonus pool was smaller as a result of lower earnings in 1993 and because
there were more participants in the IPKE in 1993 than in 1992. In 1993, Mr.
Dods also received a cash bonus of $15,625 from the Corporation's qualified
Profit Sharing Plan and Cash Bonus Plan in which all eligible employees
participate and receive payments based on the formulas set forth in the Plans.
LONG TERM INCENTIVES In April, 1993, Mr. Dods received options to purchase
18,000 shares pursuant to the SIP, as set forth in the table under "Option
Grants in Last Fiscal Year." This award was based upon the SIP's guideline
percentage of base salary, and the number of shares was rounded up to the
closest 1,000 shares. The Committee has determined that in their judgment the
number of options granted was appropriate in light of other elements of
compensation awarded, and would serve the objective of directly linking a
significant portion of Mr. Dods' compensation to future creation of stockholder
value.
Mr. Dods will also be eligible to receive the first payout under the
LTIP in 1994 based on the Corporation's financial performance for the 1991-1993
performance cycle. As discussed above, the amount awarded will be disclosed in
the proxy statement for the 1995 annual meeting.
POLICY WITH RESPECT TO THE $1 MILLION DEDUCTION LIMIT
Recently enacted Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally
limits the deductibility by corporations of compensation in excess of
$1,000,000 paid to certain executive officers beginning in 1994, unless certain
requirements are met. The Committee continues to consider the impact of this
new tax code provision on the Corporation, and, in due course, will review its
compensation programs for the executive officers subject to the deduction limit
while preserving its focus on performance-driven compensation.
CONCLUSION
The Committee believes these compensation policies and programs
effectively serve the interests of stockholders and the Corporation. The
various pay programs offered are appropriately balanced to provide increased
motivation for executives to contribute to the Corporation's overall future
successes, thereby enhancing stockholder value.

Dividends are paid to the above named executive officers on their restricted
stock holdings. The IPKE awards are intended to reward key employees based upon
the Corporation's overall performance, the individual's business unit's
performance and the key employee's own performance. The IPKE is administered by
the Committee. The IPKE provides for a maximum bonus pool equivalent to 2-1/2%
of consolidated income before income taxes and securities gains for the
performance year. The Chief Executive Officer will, at his discretion, allocate
a portion of the bonus pool to each business unit. The manager of each business
unit will recommend how this allocated amount should be distributed to
individual participants in the business unit. Individual awards are generally
based upon the participant's management level and performance during the
performance period. The business unit manager's recommendations are reviewed
and approved or adjusted by the Chief Executive Officer. These recommendations
are then presented to the Committee for final review and approval.

17
The awards under the IPKE can be paid, at the Committee's sole discretion,
in cash and/or common stock with a fair market value equal to the award
amount. A participant can elect to have all or a portion of the cash award
deferred for future payment under the Corporation's Deferred Compensation
Plan.
Participants are entitled to vote the restricted shares. IPKE shares
become vested upon the participant attaining 60 years of age, completion of
20 full years of employment, retirement, death, or termination of employment
prior to retirement with the approval of the Corporation, whichever occurs
earliest. Beginning in 1989, for those participants who had previously met
the minimum restrictions for completion of 20 full years of employment or
attaining 60 years of age, the Committee imposed a five-year restriction
from the date of any subsequent stock awards. IPKE also provides for
forfeiture by the participant and reversion to the Corporation of all
non-vested shares, previously awarded in certain cases of termination of
employment.
(5)Includes term life insurance premiums including "gross-up" for income taxes,
and split dollar insurance agreements as discussed below. Details of All
Other Compensation for each of the above named executive officers for 1993
are as follows:

--------- ------------ -------
Dods . . . . . . . . $32,735 $ 8,697 $41,432
Hoag . . . . . . . . $ 7,206 $16,812 $24,018

Ching . . . . . . . $ 3,751 $ 8,531 $12,282
Horner . . . . . . . $ 824 $ 5,527 $ 6,351
The Corporation has split dollar insurance agreements with the named
executive officers, as well as other senior officers. The Corporation pays
the insurance premium and imputes the economic benefit to the executive
utilizing the PS58 table published by the Internal Revenue Service. Under
the agreement, the executive owns a policy with a death benefit equal to
three times final salary and the Corporation owns an interest in the policy
on the life of the executive sufficient to recover all previously paid
premiums plus any foregone interest, net of the income tax benefit, on such
premium payments upon the death of the executive. The amount for each named
executive officer under this split dollar agreement included in the above
table represents the foregone interest, net of applicable income tax
benefit. The Corporation also has a $1,000,000 whole life insurance policy
on the life of Mr. Dods. The premium and related "gross-up" income taxes on
this policy are included under the Term Insurance column. The death benefit
under this policy is deducted from the death benefit under Mr. Dods' split
dollar policy.
(6)The Corporation did not have a stock incentive plan in effect in 1991.
(7)The amounts of LTIP awards for the first LTIP cycle (1991-1993) have not
been determined at this time. The amounts will be determined and paid in
1994 and will be disclosed in the proxy statement for the annual meeting to
be held in 1995.
There are no employment contracts, change-in-control arrangements (other than
in the LTIP, SIP and Deferred Compensation Plan) or termination of employment
arrangements with the named executive officers.

NOTES:
(1) Options under the SIP are granted at 100% of the market value of the
stock on the date of the grant. Options vest 25% per year after the first
anniversary after the date of grant. No option may be exercised prior to
vesting (and in no event earlier than 6 months after the date of grant) or
later than 10 years after the date of grant. The exercise price of an option
is payable either in cash, by tendering previously acquired shares by the
optionee, or by a combination of cash and previously acquired shares. In the
event of a change in control, as defined in the SIP, all options granted and
held at least six months become immediately exercisable and vested. In the
event of death, disability or retirement, the Committee has the discretion
to accelerate the vesting of options previously granted. The SIP provides
for the shortening of the exercise period for vested options if termination
is due to death, disability or retirement. The SIP also provides for the
Corporation to withhold statutory income taxes upon the exercise of the
options by the option holder paying cash or tendering previously acquired
Corporation shares or by the Corporation withholding the appropriate number
of option shares which would have been issued following the option exercise.
Without the approval of the stockholders of the Corporation, the SIP cannot
be terminated, amended, or modified to (a) increase the total amount of
shares which may be issued except as provided in the SIP; (b) change the
class of eligible employees; (c) materially increase the cost of the SIP or
benefits to the participants; (d) extend the maximum period after the date
of grant during which the options may be exercised; or (e) change the
provisions of the exercise price.
(2) The potential realizable value is reported net of the option exercise
price, but before income taxes associated with exercise. These amounts
represent assumed annual compounded rates of appreciation of 5% and 10% from
the date of grant to the end of the option. Actual gains, if any, on stock
option exercises are dependent on the future performance of the
Corporation's common stock, overall stock market conditions, and the
optionees' continued employment through the vesting period. The amounts
reflected in these columns may not necessarily be achieved.
(3) None of the options granted represent reload options.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS--AWARDS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR
The Corporation's LTIP applies to a group of key executives approved
by the Executive Compensation Committee, much smaller than the group eligible
for IPKE and SIP awards. It is intended to provide incentive compensation to
participants based on the Corporation's ability to sustain a target level of
performance over a three-year performance cycle. The first cycle covers
1991-1993; the second cycle 1992-1994; and so on. The LTIP is administered by
the Executive Compensation Committee and has no expiration date.
Under the current formula LTIP awards are based on target percentages
(ranging from 10% to 35%) of participant's average base salary over the
three-year performance cycle. If the Corporation does not achieve a threshold
average return on equity ("ROE") of 15% over the three-year performance cycle,
no awards are payable under the LTIP. When the Corporation's ROE exceeds the
threshold level, the target awards to par-
17
19
ticipants are adjusted by a factor (ranging from 0% to 140%) based on the
Corporation's financial performance compared to a peer group, as measured by
average return on assets ("ROA"), and the Corporation's asset growth over the
period. Relative ROA and growth of assets are equally weighted in the award
determination. In the Committee's judgment, these performance measures are
closely linked to stockholder value creation and reinforce desired long-term
strategies and performance. In addition, LTIP awards to participants may be
adjusted by the Committee based on that individual's performance (from 0% to
140% of the individual's targeted amount as adjusted for the Corporation's
performance).
The peer group used for LTIP purposes is comprised of regional bank
holding companies similar to the Corporation in size, performance and nature of
operations. The group, which is not the same as the Initial Peer Group,
includes some but not all of the companies in the S&P Major Regional Bank
Index.
Cash payouts are made after each three-year performance cycle. A
participant can elect to have the cash award deferred for future payment under
the Corporation's Deferred Compensation Plan.
The following table reflects the estimated future payouts, with
respect to the named executive officers, at threshold, target and maximum award
levels for the three-year performance cycle beginning in 1993 and ending in
1995. Actual payouts are contingent upon the Corporation meeting its threshold
ROE and are subject to adjustment by the Committee as described above, based
upon corporate and individual performance, which will be determined in 1996 for
the 1993-1995 performance cycle.

NOTES:
(1)Performance period beginning January 1, 1993 and ending December 31, 1995.
(2)Estimated future payouts under the target and maximum columns are based upon
the named executive officer's base salary as of 12/31/93.
(3)If the Corporation does not meet its threshold ROE or the participant
receives a 0% performance rating, there is no payout.
(4)Under the current formula, the maximum individual payout is limited to 196%
of the target amount.
PROFIT SHARING PLAN AND CASH BONUS PLAN. The Corporation has a defined
contribution Profit Sharing Plan and Cash Bonus Plan (the "Plan"). All regular
employees of the Corporation and participating subsidiaries (including those
who are officers and directors) become members of the Plan on the first of the
month coincident with or next following their completion of one year of service
in which they work 1,000 hours. The Plan provides that for every taxable year,
the Corporation and its participating subsidiaries shall each contribute to the
Plan an amount of cash equal to one-half of the applicable percentage of the
total compensation of the members employed by each company, respectively, for
such year. Such percentage of the total compensation is a function of the
percentage increase in the Corporation's consolidated net earnings for such
year as determined from the following table:
Percent Increase In Percent of Total
Consolidated Net Earnings Compensation
------------------------- ----------------
0 or less 5.0
5 8.0
10 11.5
15 15.5
20 20.0
25 25.0
18
20
The other half of the amount of the Corporation's contribution is distributed
in the form of a cash bonus that is currently taxable to the employee.
A member's share of the total profit sharing contribution bears the
same proportion to the total as is represented by the member's compensation for
the plan year divided by the total compensation of members entitled to an
allocable share of the profit sharing contribution.
PENSION PLANS
The Corporation has an Employees' Retirement Plan (the "ERP") for
employees of the Corporation and participating subsidiaries who have completed
certain age and service requirements. Under the ERP, covered compensation
includes salary, including overtime, but excluding bonuses. Pension
compensation is also limited to a maximum allowable under the Internal Revenue
Code. Retirement benefits become payable effective upon an employee's
retirement at the normal retirement age of 65 years. Normal retirement benefits
payable under the ERP are based on total or final compensation and years of
credited service. Under specified circumstances, an employee who has attained a
certain age and length of service may retire early with reduced benefits.
The Corporation has a non-qualified, unfunded Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan (the "SERP") for executives of the Corporation and
participating subsidiaries. To be eligible, an executive must have had benefits
under the Corporation's tax-qualified plans that are limited by certain laws or
regulations governing such plans and their benefits. The SERP provides the
difference between an unrestricted benefit and the restricted benefit allowed
under the qualified plan. In determining the pension benefits under the SERP, a
participant's covered compensation includes salary, including overtime, as well
as the annual bonus earned under the IPKE.
The following table illustrates the estimated annual pension benefits
payable to an executive officer at age 65. Whether these amounts become payable
depends on the contingencies and conditions governing the Corporation's ERP and
SERP.

NOTES:
(1)Final average compensation represents the average annual compensation during
the highest 60 consecutive calendar months in the last 120 calendar months of
creditable service. Compensation for the purpose of this table includes total
salary plus the value of awards under the IPKE as shown on the Summary
Compensation Table (but not bonuses under the Profit Sharing Plan and Cash
Bonus Plan). The estimated annual benefits are computed on the basis of a
straight-life annuity form of payment with no social security offset.

Inc.'s common stock in a fiduciary capacity. Mr. Dods does not serve on the
executive compensation committee (or other board committee performing the
equivalent function) of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc.
The Bank has (a) made loans to Mr. Wallace S. Fujiyama and Alexander &
Baldwin, Inc. and (b) made loans to, and issued a letter of credit on behalf
of, Matson Navigation Company, Inc., a subsidiary of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc.
These loans and the letter of credit were made in the ordinary course of
business, were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates
and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions
with other persons, and did not involve more than normal risks of
collectibility or present other unfavorable features.
CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
The total amount of loans outstanding to directors and executive
officers of the Corporation from the Bank aggregated $957,270 at December 31,
1993. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business, were made on
substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those
prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons, and did
not involve more than normal risks of collectibility or present other
unfavorable features.

NOTE:
(1) All loans are secured by real estate mortgages or are consumer credit lines.
The Bank leases a parcel of land, on which a branch of the Bank is
located, from the Estate of Samuel M. Damon pursuant to a lease commencing July
1, 1967. This lease is for a term of 50 years, requiring the payment of a fixed
annual rent of $95,713 annually from July 1, 1993 to June 30, 1997. Rents
thereafter are to be fixed for each of two succeeding 10-year periods by
agreement or failing agreement by appraisal. Messrs. Haig, Weyand, Ganley and
Dods are Directors of the Corporation and the Bank and Trustees of the Estate.
Management of the Corporation believes that this transaction is as favorable to
the Corporation and the Bank as that which would have been obtainable in
transactions with persons or companies not affiliated with the Corporation or
the Bank.
The Bank leases 4,178 square feet of office space to the Estate of
Samuel M. Damon in a downtown Honolulu office building in which the Bank's
headquarters are temporarily located pending the construction of a new
headquarters building. The Estate leased 4,031 square feet in the old
headquarters building at $2.00 per square foot per month for the period ending
April 30, 1997. In consideration of the Estate and other tenants of the old
headquarters building agreeing to temporarily relocate their offices to allow
for construction of the new building, the Bank offered the Estate and 3 other
non-related tenants comparable space in the temporary location at the same
aggregate rent as previously applied in the old building. Management of the
Corporation believes that, while the rent charged to the Estate and the other
tenants may not be market rate rents for the temporary location, the temporary
arrangements made for the Estate described above are as favorable to the
Corporation and the Bank as those that would have been obtainable in a similar
transaction with persons or companies not affiliated with the Corporation or
the Bank.

ELECTION OF AUDITOR
The Board of Directors, on recommendation of the Joint Audit
Committee, recommends the re-election of Coopers & Lybrand as Auditor of the
Corporation to serve for the ensuing year. Coopers & Lybrand has served the
Corporation in the capacity of independent Auditors since 1973. Proxies in the
accompanying form will be voted for the election of Coopers & Lybrand unless a
contrary specification is indicated therein, in which event they will be voted
as specified. Election of the Auditor requires the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares present or represented at the meeting. Under the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, abstentions and broker
non-votes will not have the effect of votes in opposition to the election of
Coopers & Lybrand.
It is expected that representatives of Coopers & Lybrand will be at the
Annual Meeting and will be available to respond to questions and make a
statement if they choose.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR.
AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO INCREASE AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK
The Board of Directors believes that it is advisable, for the reasons
set forth below, to amend Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation of
the Corporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock,
par value $5.00 per share ("Common Stock"), from 66,500,000 to 100,000,000
shares. Accordingly, at its meeting on January 20, 1994, the Board of Directors
adopted a resolution proposing that an amendment to Article Fourth of the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation be presented to the stockholders at
the Annual Meeting for their approval. The proposed resolution being submitted
for stockholder approval is as follows:
RESOLVED, that Article Fourth of the Certificate of
Incorporation be amended to increase the number of authorized shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation by 33,500,000 shares and to read in
its entirety as follows:
FOURTH: The total number of shares of stock which
this corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred
Million (100,000,000) shares of common stock having a par
value of Five Dollars ($5.00) per share.
As of the close of business on February 22, 1994, 32,350,349 of the
66,500,000 shares of Common Stock now authorized by the Certificate of
Incorporation were issued and outstanding, and an additional 212,497 shares of
Common Stock were held by the Corporation for issuance in connection with the
IPKE and SIP.
The Corporation has no agreements, commitments or plans at this time
for the sale or other use of the additional authorized shares of Common Stock.
However, the Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interest of the
Corporation and its stockholders to increase the shares of authorized Common
Stock so that a sufficient number of additional shares of Common Stock will be
available for issuance from time to time in connection with possible future
actions such as stock splits or stock dividends or for the purpose of
accomplishing a merger with, or of acquiring, another corporation, bank or
trust company. Having such additional authorized shares of Common Stock
available for issuance in the future will give the Corporation greater
flexibility to take advantage of opportunities that may arise and allow
additional shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares presently
authorized to be issued without the expense and delay of a special meeting of
stockholders. The Corporation does not have any plan at present to effect a
merger with, or otherwise acquire, any other company.
If the resolution is adopted and the Certificate of Incorporation is
amended in accordance therewith, the newly authorized Common Stock could
generally be issued at the discretion of the Board of Directors, subject,
however, to the rights of the Corporation's stockholders under Article Ninth of
the Certificate of Incorporation, as described below. In addition, in certain
circumstances, the rules and regulations of NASDAQ (on which the Common Stock
is now traded) may require specific stockholder authorization of a proposed
issuance of shares of Common Stock.
Article Ninth of the Certificate of Incorporation provides that upon
any increase in the authorized capital stock of the Corporation, unless the
resolution of the stockholders of the Corporation authorizing said increase
shall otherwise provide, the Board of Directors shall first offer the
additional authorized stock pro rata
22
24
to all stockholders of record at such price and on such terms as the Board of
Directors may in each instance fix. An exception to the requirement that
authorized capital stock first be offered to all stockholders is provided in
Article Ninth with respect to the issuance of additional stock of the
Corporation for the purposes of accomplishing the merger with, or of otherwise
acquiring, another corporation, bank or trust company. Therefore, except for
the issuance of the new shares in connection with a merger or acquisition by
the Corporation, the proposed increase in authorized Common Stock should not
have any effect upon a change in control of the Corporation.
The additional shares for which authorization is sought would be
identical in terms with the shares of Common Stock now authorized and
outstanding, and the amendment would not affect the terms or the rights of the
holders of those shares. The Corporation's Common Stock has no conversion
rights and is not redeemable under the terms of the Certificate of
Incorporation.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
Common Stock is required for adoption of the proposed amendment to Article
Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation. Accordingly, under the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, and under Delaware law,
abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of votes cast against
adoption of the proposed amendment.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR.
OTHER BUSINESS
At the date of this proxy statement, management does not know of any
