Independent Auditor's Report
----------------------------
May 5, 2005
To the Compensation and Personnel Committee
and Board of Directors of Tompkins Trustco, Inc.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the Tompkins Trustco, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("the
Plan") as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related statements of changes
in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required
to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the
Plan as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the changes in net assets available
for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets
Held for Investment Purposes at End of Year as of December 31, 2004, Schedule of
Investment Assets That Were Both Acquired and Disposed of Within the Plan Year
for the Year Ended December 31, 2004, and Schedule of Reportable Transactions
for the Year Ended December 31, 2004, are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the
- 1 -
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
Note 1 - Description of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan
---------------------------------------------------------
The following description of the Tompkins Trustco, Inc. (the "Company")
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description
of the Plan's provisions.
General - The Plan is an employee stock ownership plan covering
eligible employees who have met certain age and service requirements. It is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA). The Plan is administered by the Compensation and Personnel Committee
(the "Committee") appointed by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").
The Trust Department of Tompkins Trust Company is the Plan's Trustee (the
"Trustee"). All investments are non-participant directed.
Company contributions - The Company shall contribute to the Plan a
discretionary amount, which shall not exceed 5% of participant compensation. The
Committee approved 4.0% and 3.5% discretionary contributions to the Plan for the
years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Participants' accounts - Each participant's account is credited with an
allocation of the Company's discretionary and non-elective contributions and an
allocation of Plan earnings. Allocations of Company contributions are based upon
the participant's compensation and the allocations of Plan earnings are based
upon participant account balances. The benefit to which a participant is
entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.
Forfeitures of non-vested account balances are allocated to participants'
accounts as Company contributions.
Eligibility - An employee shall become eligible for participation in
the Plan on the first day of the month coinciding with completing one (1) year
of employment and attaining the age of twenty-one (21). Leased employees,
employees covered under a collective bargaining agreement and "On-Call"
employees are not eligible to participate.
Vesting - Participants will become vested in the Plan over a five (5)
year period. The Plan has non-vested assets of approximately $44,700 and $36,300
as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Payments of benefits - Upon retirement or disability, a participant may
elect to receive either a lump sum amount equal to the value of their account or
payments on an instalment method. Distributions to participants upon termination
of employment other than for retirement or disability may be made in a lump sum.
- 7 -
Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies
---------------------------------------------------
Basis of presentation - The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared on the accrual method of accounting.
Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America requires the Plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and changes therein, and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from
those estimates.
Risks and uncertainties - The Plan's investments are in company stocks
and money market funds. These investments are exposed to market and credit
risks. Due to the level of risk associated with these investments and the level
of uncertainty related to changes in the value of the investments, it is at
least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would
materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the
statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in
net assets available for benefits.
Investments - Investments are recorded at fair value. The investment in
the Company's common stock is valued at December 31, 2004 and 2003, at the
market value as listed on the American Stock Exchange for publicly-traded
securities.
Economic dependency and concentration of risk - The Plan has
approximately 97% of its assets invested in Tompkins Trustco, Inc. common stock
as of December 31, 2004 and 2003. Accordingly, the Plan is dependent upon the
financial condition of Tompkins Trustco, Inc.
Note 3 - Administration of Plan assets
--------------------------------------
The Trustee of the Plan holds the Plan's assets, which consist
principally of Tompkins Trustco, Inc. common shares. Dividends on the stock are
paid in cash to the participants, or reinvested to buy more shares of common
stock for a participant account or used to make loan payments.
Certain administrative functions are performed by officers or employees
of the Company or its subsidiaries. No such officer or employee receives
compensation from the Plan. Administrative expenses, including maintaining
participant accounts, legal and accounting costs are paid directly by the
Company.

Note 4 - Investments

The Plan's investments are held by the Company's administered Trust
fund. The fair values of investments are as follows:

The Plan's investments (including investments bought, sold and held

----------- -----------

=========== ===========
Note 5 - Termination of the Plan
--------------------------------
The Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time,
subject to Plan provisions and provisions of ERISA. Upon Plan termination, all
assets would be used to pay the administrative expenses, liquidation expenses
and participant claims until all fund assets have been expended. The Company
would not be entitled to receive any assets or other benefits upon termination
of the Plan.
- 9 -
Note 6 - Diversification and transfers
--------------------------------------
Under the Plan document, participants meeting certain age and service
requirements may elect to diversify an eligible portion of the Company stock
held in their account within ninety (90) days after the close of each Plan year.
The participants may make this election over a six (6) year period. In the first
five (5) years a participant may diversify up to 25% of the number of shares
allocated to their account. In the sixth year, the percentage changes to 50%.
The funds elected to be diversified, are transferred to the Tompkins Trustco,
Inc. Investment and Stock Ownership Plan ("ISOP") and invested in funds as
chosen by the participant. During 2004 and 2003, the Plan transferred $274,008
and $176,762 to the ISOP, respectively.
Note 7 - Plan amendments
------------------------
Effective August 11, 2004, various sections of the Plan document were
amended to facilitate the Internal Revenue Service Determination Letter process.
Note 8 - Tax status
-------------------
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company
that the Plan and related Trust are designed in accordance with applicable
Sections of the Code. Accordingly, the Plan has been accounted for as a
tax-exempt plan.
Note 9 - Contingencies
----------------------
The Plan is currently under examination by the Department of Labor for
the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003. Management believes the Plan
is in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of ERISA and the
Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, there has been no adjustments made to the
financial statements as a result of this examination.
