REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
The Plan Administrator
Trustmark 401(k) Plan
 
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Trustmark 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2007, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year 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 audit.  The statement of net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2006 and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, was audited by other auditors whose report, dated June 18, 2007, expressed an unqualified opinion on that statement.
 
We conducted our audit 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.  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 audit provides 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, 2007, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of assets held at end of year as of December 31, 2007, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the United States Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management.  The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

TRUSTMARK 401(k) PLAN
December 31, 2007 and 2006


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Note 1.  Plan Description
 

The following description of the Trustmark 401(k) 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 a defined contribution plan established for the associates of Trustmark Corporation (the "Company") and certain other associated companies.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") of 1974.

Eligibility

Effective January 1, 2004, the Plan was amended to provide eligibility for participation in elective deferrals by employees on the first day of the month after thirty days of employment. Prior to 2004, the Plan provided eligibility for participation on the first day of the month following the completion of at least 1,000 hours of service during the twelve-month period ending on the anniversary of a person's employment commencement date.

Plan Administration

Nationwide Life Insurance Company and Nationwide Trust Company served as custodian of the Plan's assets through January 31, 2007.  Effective February 1, 2007, the Company named Federated Retirement Plan Services as custodian of the Plan's assets.  The Plan administrator and sponsor is Trustmark Corporation, parent company of Trustmark National Bank.  The Plan's trustee functions are handled by Trustmark National Bank.

Participant Accounts

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and allocations of (a) the Company's contribution and (b) Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses.  Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined.  The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account.

Participant Contributions

The Plan allows participants to make voluntary before-tax salary deferral contributions, through payroll deductions, to separately invested funds in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.  If certain requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) are not met in Plan operation, the salary deferral agreements of participants may, on a nondiscriminatory and uniform basis, be amended or revoked to preserve the qualified status of the Plan.  Voluntary after-tax contributions by participants are not allowed.

TRUSTMARK 401(k) PLAN
December 31, 2007 and 2006


 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Note 1.  Continued

Participants may elect to contribute up to 75 percent of eligible compensation each period, subject to regulatory limitations.  Any excess contributions must be returned to the applicable participant by April 15 of the calendar year following the year of excess contributions.  The Plan allows for rollover contributions from individual retirement accounts, Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 457(b) plans or other qualified plans.

Provisions of the Plan allow participants who were age 50 years or older by the end of the calendar year to make catch-up contributions to the Plan.  Catch-up contributions represent associate compensation deferrals in excess of certain plan limits and statutory limits, including Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") annual deferral limits.

Employer Contributions

During 2006, eligible participant contributions were matched by the employer at a rate of 100 percent of the first 3 percent and 50 percent of the next 3 percent of covered compensation. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company increased its employer matching contributions to 100 percent of the first 6 percent of covered compensation.  The employer may also make discretionary contributions.  No such contributions were made for the years ended December 31, 2007 or 2006.

Investment Options

Participants may direct the investment of their account balance among several investment options.

Vesting

Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions, employer contributions made on their behalf and the investment earnings and losses thereon.

Payment of Benefits

On retirement, death, disability or termination of service, a participant may elect to receive a lump-sum distribution equal to his or her account balance or in installments.  In addition, hardship distributions are permitted if certain criteria are met.

Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.  However, no such action may deprive any participant or beneficiary under the Plan of any vested benefit.

TRUSTMARK 401(k) PLAN
December 31, 2007 and 2006


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Note 2.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Plan's financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, with the exception of the payment of benefits, which are recognized as a reduction in the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as they are disbursed to participants.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition

Investments are stated at fair value.  The fair value of mutual funds and other securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the closing quoted market price on the last business day of the year.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.  Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Net Appreciation (Depreciation) in Fair Value of Investments

Net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments, as recorded in the accompanying statements of changes in net assets available for benefits, includes changes in the fair value of investments acquired, sold or held during the year.

Administrative Fees

Administrative fees are paid by the Plan.  All other fees, including professional fees, are paid by the Company.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Plan's investments include funds which invest in various types of investment securities and in various companies within various markets.  Investment securities are exposed to several risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participant's account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.

Net (depreciation) appreciation  in fair value of investments
  $ (12,134,644 )   $ 7,703,962  
 
The Plan provides participants the opportunity to annually elect whether cash dividends paid on employer stock will be invested in shares of employer stock within the individual participant's account or be paid to the participant in cash.
 
Note 4.  Tax Status

The IRS has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated November 19, 2001, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the IRC.  The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.  However, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

TRUSTMARK 401(k) PLAN
December 31, 2007 and 2006


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
Note 5.  Related Parties

Certain Plan investments are invested in the common stock of Trustmark Corporation.  Investment transactions in employer securities qualify as party-in-interest transactions.  For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, dividends of $1,285,482 and $1,297,155, respectively, were received by the Plan from the Company.

Trustmark National Bank serves as the investment advisor for the Performance Funds Trust Mutual Funds.

Note 6.  Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to lawsuits and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.  Some of the lawsuits assert claims related to various business activities, and some of the lawsuits allege substantial claims for damages.  The cases are being vigorously contested.  In the regular course of business, management evaluates estimated losses or costs related to litigation, and provision is made for anticipated losses whenever management believes that such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated.  At the present time, management believes, based on the advice of legal counsel, that the final resolution of pending legal proceedings will not have a material impact on the Company or the Plan's financial statements.
