UNION FIRST MARKET BANKSHARES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
September 30, 2010
1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Union First Market Bankshares Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company). Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and follow general practice within the banking industry. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. If needed, certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 105, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principlesa replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.
2. | BUSINESS COMBINATIONS |
On February 1, 2010, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of First Market Bank, FSB (First Market Bank or FMB) in an all stock transaction. First Market Banks common shareholders received 6,273.259 shares of the Companys common stock in exchange for each share of First Market Banks common stock, resulting in the Company issuing 6,701,478 common shares. The Series A preferred shareholder of First Market Bank received 775,795 shares of the Companys common stock in exchange for all shares of the Series A preferred stock. In connection with the transaction, the Company issued a total of 7,477,273 common shares with an acquisition date fair value of $96.1 million. The Series B and Series C preferred shareholder of First Market Bank received 35,595 shares of the Companys Series B preferred stock in exchange for all shares of the Series B and Series C preferred stock.
The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Assets acquired totaled $1.4 billion, including $981.5 million in net loans and $218.7 million in investment securities. Liabilities assumed were $1.3 billion, including $1.2 billion of deposits. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded $1.1 million of goodwill and $26.4 million of core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible is being amortized over an average of 4.3 years using an accelerated method. In addition, the Company recorded $1.2 million related to a trademark intangible. This is being amortized over a three year time period. The recorded goodwill was allocated to the community banking segment of the Company and is non-deductible for tax purposes.
In many cases, determining the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities required the Company to estimate cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. The most significant of these determinations related to the fair valuation of acquired loans. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference
- 5 -
between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and other factors, such as prepayments. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carryover of First Market Banks previously established allowance for loan losses. Subsequent decreases in the expected cash flows will require the Company to evaluate the need for additions to the Companys allowance for credit losses. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows will result in the recognition of additional interest income over the then remaining lives of the loans.
The consideration paid for First Market Bank and the amounts of acquired identifiable assets and liabilities and preferred equity assumed as of the acquisition date were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Loans obtained in the acquisition of First Market Bank for which there is specific evidence of credit deterioration and for which it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required principal and interest payments represent less than 0.43% of the Companys consolidated assets and, accordingly, are not considered material.
The table that follows presents certain pro forma information as if First Market Bank had been acquired on January 1, 2009 for 2009 and January 1, 2010 for 2010. These results combine the historical results of First Market Bank into the Companys consolidated statement of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair valuation adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on the stated dates. In particular, no adjustments have been made to eliminate the amount of First Market Banks provision for credit losses of $4.4 million in 2009 (there was no provision for loan losses during the month of January 2010 for First Market Bank) that would not have been necessary had the acquired loans been recorded at fair value as of the beginning of each year. The disclosure of First Market Banks post-acquisition revenue and net income were not practicable due to combining its operations with the Companys largest affiliate shortly after the acquisition.

Additionally, the Company expects to achieve further operating cost savings and other business synergies as a result of the acquisition which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts that follow (dollars in thousands):

Acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of First Market Bank were $123,000 and $7.8 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, respectively, and are recorded in Other operating expenses in the Companys condensed consolidated statements of income. Acquisition-related expenses were $307,000 and $948,000 for the three and nine months ended September 2009. Such costs include legal and accounting fees, lease and contract termination expenses, system conversion, integrating operations, and employee severances, which have been expensed as incurred.
A summary of acquisition-related expenses associated with the First Market Bank acquisition included in the condensed consolidated statements of income is as follows (dollars in thousands). Included in the equipment and net occupancy category is the write-down of select fixed assets of approximately $1.7 million following acquisition.

Total acquisition costs incurred from the date the Company announced the acquisition of First Market Bank through September 30, 2010 were $9.3 million, approximately $1.5 million below the initial estimate of approximately $10.8 million. No further costs are expected.
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company compared the expected prepayments at acquisition to actual prepayments and anticipated future payments. The slower prepayment speed noted on land loans during this assessment is considered a change in accounting estimate and resulted in a lower effective yield. A cumulative reduction of $994,000 in discount accretion was recorded during the third quarter, of which $319,000 relates to the current quarter, to align year-to-date accretion following an assessment of actual and anticipated future payments.
3. | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION |
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted ASC 718, Stock Compensation. This statement requires the costs resulting from all share-based payments to employees to be recognized in the financial statements.
The Companys 2003 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, and nonvested stock awards to key employees of the Company. The stock incentive plan makes available 525,000 shares which may be awarded to employees of the Company in the form of incentive stock options intended to comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, non-statutory stock options, and nonvested stock. Under the plan, the option price cannot be less than the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. The stock options maximum term is 10 years from the date of grant and generally vests in equal annual installments of 20 percent over a five-year vesting schedule. The Company issues new shares to satisfy share-based awards. As of September 30, 2010, there were 94,268 shares available for issuance under the Companys 2003 Stock Incentive Plan.
- 7 -
For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $223,000 and $410,000, net of tax, respectively, and less than $0.01 per common share for both periods ended September 30, 2010.

No options were exercised in the third quarter of 2010. The fair value of stock options vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was approximately $113,000. Cash received from the exercise of stock options for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was zero and $40,000, respectively.

Nonvested Stock
The 2003 plan permits the granting of nonvested stock, but such grants are limited to one-third of the aggregate number of total awards granted. This equity component of compensation is divided between restricted (time-based) stock grants and performance-based stock grants. The restricted stock generally vests on either of the following vesting schedules: 1) In four installments, 25% at the ends of each of the four years following the grant date, or 2) In two installments, 50% at the end of the third year following the grant date and 50% at the end of the fourth year following the grant date. The performance-based stock is subject to vesting on the fourth anniversary of the date of the grant based on the performance of the Companys stock price. The value of the nonvested stock awards was calculated by multiplying the fair market value of the Companys common stock on the grant date by the number of shares awarded. Employees have the right to vote the shares and to receive cash or stock dividends (restricted stock), if any, except for the nonvested stock under the performance-based component (performance stock).

5. | EARNINGS PER SHARE |
Basic earnings per common share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS uses as the denominator the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding attributable to stock awards. Dividends on preferred stock and amortization of discount on preferred stock are treated as a reduction of the numerator in calculating basic and diluted EPS. There were approximately 247,206 and 178,203 shares underlying anti-dilutive stock awards as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Dividends paid on nonvested stock awards were approximately $10,000 and $8,000 as of September 30, 2010 and 2009.
The following is a reconcilement of the denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 (dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts):

6. | TRUST PREFERRED CAPITAL NOTES |
During the first quarter of 2006, Union Bankshares Corporation Statutory Trust II (Statutory Trust II), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable capital securities in connection with the acquisition of Prosperity Bank & Trust Company. A Trust Preferred Capital Note of $36.0 million was issued through a pooled underwriting. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate (three month LIBOR plus 1.40%) which adjusts and is payable quarterly. The interest rate for the period ended September 30, 2010 was 1.69%. The redeemable capital securities may be called at par after five years on March 31, 2011 and each quarterly anniversary of such date until the securities mature in 30 years on March 31, 2036. The principal asset of the Statutory Trust II is $37.1 million of the Companys junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the capital notes, of which $1.1 million is reflected as the Companys investment in Statutory Trust II reported as Other assets within the financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2004, Union Bankshares Corporation Statutory Trust I (Statutory Trust I), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable capital securities in connection with the acquisition of Guaranty Financial Corporation. A Trust Preferred Capital Note of $22.5 million was issued through a pooled underwriting. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate (three month LIBOR plus 2.75%) which adjusts and is payable quarterly. The interest rate for the period ended September 30, 2010 was 3.04%. The redeemable capital securities have been redeemable at par since June 17, 2009 and each quarterly anniversary of such date until the securities mature on June 17, 2034. The principal asset of the Statutory Trust I is $23.2 million of the Companys junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the capital notes, of which $696,000 is reflected as the Companys investment in Statutory Trust I reported as Other assets within the financial statements.
7. | SEGMENT REPORTING DISCLOSURES |
The Company has two reportable segments: a traditional full service community bank business and a mortgage loan origination business. The community bank business includes three banks, which provide loan, deposit, investment, and other banking services to consumer and commercial customers through 91 branch offices located in Virginia. On October 12, 2010, the Company combined two of its community banks, Northern Neck State Bank and Rappahannock National Bank, into its largest bank affiliate, Union First Market Bank. As a result of this transaction, Union First Market Bank is the Companys only bank subsidiary. The Companys largest affiliate, Union First Market Bank, also offers trust services. The mortgage segment provides a variety of mortgage loan products principally in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, and South Carolina. These loans are originated and sold primarily in the secondary market through purchase commitments from investors, which subject the Company to only de minimis risk.
Profit and loss is measured by net income after taxes including realized gains and losses on the Companys investment portfolio. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Inter-segment transactions are recorded at cost and eliminated as part of the consolidation process.
Both of the Companys reportable segments are service based. The mortgage business is a fee-based business while the community banks are driven principally by net interest income. The community banks provide a distribution and referral network through their customers for the mortgage loan origination business. The mortgage segment offers a more limited referral network for the banks, due largely to the number of mortgage branches outside the banks operating markets.
The community bank segment provides the mortgage segment with the short-term funds needed to originate mortgage loans through a warehouse line of credit and charges the mortgage banking segment interest at the three month LIBOR rate plus 25 basis points. These transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. A management fee for operations and administrative support services is charged to all subsidiaries and eliminated in the consolidated totals.

8. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-04, Accounting for Various Topics Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs (ASU 2010-04). This update makes technical corrections to existing Securities and Exchange Commission guidance including the following topics: accounting for subsequent investments, termination of an interest rate swap, issuance of financial statements - subsequent events, use of residential method to value acquired assets other than goodwill, adjustments in assets and liabilities for holding gains and losses, and selections of discount rate used for measuring defined benefit obligation. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (ASU 2010-06). ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, requires new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value

measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-08, Technical Corrections to Various Topics (ASU 2010-08). ASU 2010-08 clarifies guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging. ASU 2010-08 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In May 2010, the FASB issued an Exposure Draft (ED) of a proposed ASU of Accounting for Financial Instruments and Revisions to the Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Financial Instruments (Topic 825) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (File Reference No 1810-100). This proposal would require (1) presentation of both amortized cost and fair value on an entitys statement of financial position for most financial instruments held for collection or payment of contractual cash flows and (2) the inclusion of both amortized cost and fair value information for these instruments in determining net income and comprehensive income. In addition, this proposal would require that financial instruments held for sale or settlement (primarily derivatives and trading financial instruments) be recognized and measured at fair value with all changes in fair value recognized in net income. The FASB is currently working on this amendment to existing accounting standards. Upon completion of the standards, the Company will need to re-evaluate its accounting and disclosures. The FASB is proposing sweeping changes to the classification and measurement of financial instruments, hedging and impairment guidance. This project may have significant impacts for the Company. However, due to ongoing deliberations of the standard-setters, the Company is currently unable to determine the effect of future amendments or proposals at this time.
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (ASU 2010-20). The new disclosure guidance will significantly expand the existing requirements and will lead to greater transparency into a companys exposure to credit losses from lending arrangements. The extensive new disclosures of information as of the end of a reporting period will become effective for both interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2010. Specific items regarding activity that occurred before the issuance of the ASU, such as the allowance roll-forward and modification disclosures, will be required for periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2010-20 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2010, the FASB issued an ED of a proposed ASU of Leases, Topic 840 (File Reference No. 1850-100). This ED generally proposes that lessees and lessors should apply a right-of-use model in accounting for all leases (including leases of right-of-use assets in a sublease). For leases within the scope of the proposed guidance, this means that: a lessee would recognize an asset representing its right to use the leased (underlying) asset for the lease term (the right-of-use asset) and a liability to make lease payments; a lessor would recognize an asset representing its right to receive lease payments and, depending on its exposure to risks or benefits associated with the underlying asset, would either: (i) recognize a lease liability while continuing to recognize the underlying asset (a performance obligation approach); or (ii) derecognize the rights in the underlying asset that it transfers to the lessee and continue to recognize a residual asset representing its rights to the underlying asset at the end of the lease term (a derecognition approach). Assets and liabilities recognized by lessees and lessors would be measured on a basis that assumes the longest possible term, uses an expected outcome technique and is updated when facts and circumstances change and significant changes occur in those recorded assets or liabilities. The ED also proposes disclosures based on stated objectives, including disclosures about the amounts recognized in the financial statements arising from leases and the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from those contracts. The FASB is currently working on this amendment to existing accounting standards governing financial lease accounting. Upon completion of the standards, the Company will need to re-evaluate its accounting and disclosures. Due to ongoing deliberations of the standard-setters, the Company is currently unable to determine the effect of future amendments or proposals at this time.

9. | GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS |
The Company adopted ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to initial recognition. The provisions of this statement discontinued the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives but require an impairment review at least annually and more frequently if certain impairment indicators are evident. Based on the annual testing during the second quarter of each year and the absence of impairment indicators during the current quarter the Company has recorded no impairment charges to date.
Core deposit intangible assets are being amortized over the period of expected benefit, which ranges from 4 to 15 years. In connection with the First Market Bank acquisition, accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, the Company recorded $26.4 million of core deposit intangible, $1.2 million of trademark intangible and $1.1 million in goodwill. None of the goodwill recognized will be deductible for income tax purposes. Changes in goodwill in the Companys consolidated balance sheet from December 31, 2009 were attributable to the acquisition of First Market Bank. The core deposit intangible on that acquisition is being amortized over an average of 4.3 years using an accelerated method and the trademark intangible is being amortized over three years using the straight-line method.
Information concerning goodwill and intangible assets is presented in the following table (in thousands):

10. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers as long as there are no violations of any conditions established in the contracts. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payments of fees. Because many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. At September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company had outstanding loan commitments approximating $858.8 million and $473.5 million, respectively.
Letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The amount of standby letters of credit whose contract amounts represent credit risk totaled approximately $39.7 million and $26.3 million at September 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively.
At September 30, 2010, Union Mortgage Group, Inc. (Union Mortgage), a wholly owned subsidiary of Union First Market Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of Union First Market Bankshares Corporation, had rate lock commitments to originate mortgage loans amounting to $161.5 million and loans held for sale of $84.4 million. Union Mortgage has entered into corresponding commitments on a best-efforts basis to sell loans on a servicing released basis totaling approximately $246.0 million. These commitments to sell loans are designed to mitigate the mortgage companys exposure to fluctuations in interest rates in connection with rate lock commitments and loans held for sale.

As of September 30, 2010, there were $21.5 million, or 48 issues, of individual securities that had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months. Additionally, these securities had an unrealized loss of $914,000 and consisted primarily of municipal obligations. In the second quarter of 2009, the Company adopted other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) guidance, as amended, for debt securities regarding recognition and disclosure. The major change in the guidance was that an impairment is other-than-temporary if any of the following conditions exists: the entity intends to sell the security; it is more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or, the entity does not expect to recover the securitys entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell). If a credit loss exists, but an entity does not intend to sell the impaired debt security and is not more likely than not to be required to sell before recovery, the impairment is other-than-temporary and should be separated into a credit portion to be recognized in earnings and the remaining amount relating to all other factors recognized as other comprehensive loss.
During each quarter the Company conducts an assessment of the securities portfolio for OTTI consideration. The assessment considers factors such as external credit ratings, delinquency coverage ratios, market price, managements judgment, expectations of future performance and relevant industry research and analysis. Based on the assessment for the current quarter ended September 30, 2010 and in accordance with the revised guidance, no OTTI was recognized.
12. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
The Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820), on January 1, 2008 to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. This statement clarifies that fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants.
ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Companys market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 based on these two types of inputs are as follows:
Level 1 | - | Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. | ||
Level 2 | - | Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the markets. |
- 16 -
Level 3 | - | Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market. These unobservable inputs reflect the Companys assumptions about what market participants would use and information that is reasonably available under the circumstances without undue cost and effort. |
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.
Securities available for sale
Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2). If the inputs used to provide the evaluation for certain securities are unobservable and/or there is little, if any, market activity then the security would fall to the lowest level of the hierarchy (Level 3). The carrying value of restricted Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of each entity and is therefore excluded from the following table.
Interest rate swap agreement used for interest rate risk management
The Company utilizes an interest rate swap agreement as part of the management of interest rate risk to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portions of the Companys interest-bearing liabilities. The Company determines the fair value of its interest rate swap using externally developed pricing models based on market observable inputs and therefore classifies such valuation as Level 2. The Company has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap assets and has considered its own credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap liabilities.

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.
Loans held for sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value. These loans currently consist of residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, the Company records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. No nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded within income from the mortgage segment on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Impaired Loans
Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements will not be collected. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the Companys collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the property is more than two years old, then a Level 3 valuation is considered to measure the fair value. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable businesss financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. At September 30, 2010, the Companys Level 3 loans consisted of three relationships secured by commercial real estate of $2.0 million with a $417,000 valuation reserve; three relationships secured by residential real estate and lots of $1.6 million with a valuation reserve of $177,000; four relationships secured by inventory, receivables or equipment of $1.0 million with a $576,000 valuation reserve; and one relationship unsecured of $110,000 with a $6,000 valuation reserve.

The Companys nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis relate to other real estate owned (OREO), goodwill, and intangible assets. In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, OREO with a carrying value above fair value is written down to its fair value and results in an impairment charge. The fair value of the real property is generally determined using appraisals or other indicators of value based on recent comparables of similar properties or assumptions generally observable in the marketplace and the related nonrecurring fair value measurement adjustments have generally been classified as Level 2. Total valuation expenses related to OREO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $43,000 for both periods and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 were zero and $62,000, respectively. No impairment charges have been recorded for goodwill or intangible assets.
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, was effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. This statement requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments for interim periods and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Loans
The fair value of performing loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Fair value for significant nonperforming loans is based on recent external appraisals. If appraisals are not available, estimated cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the estimated cash flows.
Deposits
The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Borrowings
The carrying value of short-term borrowings is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term borrowings is estimated based on interest rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.
Accrued Interest
The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
Cash Flow Hedge
The carrying amount of the cash flow hedge approximates fair value.
- 19 -
Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit
The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. At September 30, 2010, the fair value of loan commitments and standby letters of credit were immaterial.

13. | DERIVATIVES |
During the second quarter of 2010, the Company entered into one interest rate swap agreement (the trust swap) as part of the management of interest rate risk. The Company designated the trust swap as a cash flow hedge intended to protect against the variability of cash flows associated with the aforementioned Statutory Trust II preferred capital securities. The trust swap hedges the interest rate risk, wherein the Company receives interest of LIBOR from a counterparty and pays a fixed rate of 3.51% to the same counterparty calculated on a notional amount of $36.0 million. The term of the trust swap is six years with a fixed rate that starts June 15, 2011. The trust swap was entered into with a counterparty that met the Companys credit standards and the agreement contains collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Company believes that the credit risk inherent in the contract is not significant.
Amounts receivable or payable are recognized as accrued under the terms of the agreements. The trust swap is designated as a cash flow hedge, with the effective portion of the derivatives unrealized gain or loss recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. The ineffective portion of the unrealized gain or loss, if any, would be recorded in other expense. At September 30, 2010, the fair value of the trust swap agreement was an unrealized loss of $2.9 million, the amount the Company would have expected to pay if the contract was terminated. There was no hedge ineffectiveness for this trust swap. The below offsetting asset or liability is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income recorded in the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders Equity. Shown below is a summary of the derivative designated as an accounting hedge at September 30, 2010:

The Company continues to have two interest rate swap loan relationships (loan swaps) as a result of the acquisition of First Market Bank. Upon entering into loan swaps with borrowers to meet their financing needs, offsetting positions with counterparties were entered into in order to minimize interest rate risk. These back-to-back loan swaps qualify as financial derivatives with fair values reported in other assets and other liabilities. The Company had loan swaps with a notional value of $4.3 million and offsetting fair values of $230,257 recorded in other assets and other liabilities with no net effect on other operating income.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Union First Market Bankshares Corporation
Richmond, Virginia
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of Union First Market Bankshares Corporation and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders equity and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the consolidated balance sheet of Union First Market Bankshares Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 16, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The Companys financial position and results of operations are affected by managements application of accounting policies, including estimates, assumptions and judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities, and amounts reported for revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in the Companys consolidated financial position and/or results of operations.
The more critical accounting and reporting policies include the Companys accounting for the allowance for loan losses, mergers and acquisitions, and goodwill and intangible assets. The Companys accounting policies are fundamental to understanding the Companys consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations. Accordingly, the Companys significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 105, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principlesa replacement of FASB Statement No. 162, during the third quarter 2009.
- 23 -
The following is a summary of the Companys critical accounting policies that are highly dependent on estimates, assumptions, and judgments.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) ASC 450 Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when occurrence is probable and can be reasonably estimated, and (ii) ASC 310 Receivables, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market, and the loan balance.
The Companys allowance for loan losses is the accumulation of various components that are calculated based on independent methodologies. All components of the allowance represent an estimation performed pursuant to applicable GAAP. Managements estimate of each homogenous pool component is based on certain observable data that management believes are most reflective of the underlying credit losses being estimated. This evaluation includes credit quality trends; collateral values; loan volumes; geographic, borrower and industry concentrations; seasoning of the loan portfolio; the findings of internal credit quality assessments and results from external bank regulatory examinations. These factors, as well as historical losses and current economic and business conditions, are used in developing estimated loss factors used in the calculations.
Applicable GAAP requires that the impairment of loans that have been separately identified for evaluation are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows or, alternatively, the observable market price of the loans or the fair value of the collateral. However, for those loans that are collateral dependent (that is, if repayment of those loans is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral) and for which management has determined foreclosure is probable, the measure of impairment is to be based on the net realizable value of the collateral. This statement also requires certain disclosures about investments in impaired loans and the allowance for loan losses and interest income recognized on impaired loans.
Reserves for commercial loans are determined by applying estimated loss factors to the portfolio based on historical loss experience and managements evaluation and risk grading of the commercial loan portfolio. Reserves are provided for noncommercial loan categories using historical loss factors applied to the total outstanding loan balance of each loan category. Additionally, environmental factors based on national and local economic conditions, as well as portfolio-specific attributes, are considered in estimating the allowance for loan losses.
While management uses the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the valuations or, if required by regulators, based upon information available to them at the time of their examinations. Such adjustments to original estimates, as necessary, are made in the period in which these factors and other relevant considerations indicate that loss levels may vary from previous estimates.
Mergers and Acquisitions
On February 1, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of First Market Bank, FSB (First Market Bank or FMB) in an all stock transaction. First Market Banks common shareholders received 6,273.259 shares of the Companys common stock in exchange for each share of First Market Banks common stock, resulting in the Company issuing 6,701,478 common shares. The Series A preferred shareholder of First Market Bank received 775,795 shares of the Companys common stock in exchange for all shares of the Series A preferred stock. In connection with the transaction the Company issued a total of 7,477,273 common shares with an acquisition date fair value of $96.1 million. The Series B and Series C preferred shareholder of First Market Bank received 35,595 shares of the Companys Series B preferred stock in exchange for all shares of the Series B and Series C preferred stock.
- 24 -
The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Assets acquired totaled $1.4 billion, including $981.5 million in net loans and $218.7 million in investment securities. Liabilities assumed were $1.3 billion, including $1.2 billion of deposits. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded $1.1 million of goodwill and $26.4 million of core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible is being amortized over an average of 4.3 years using an accelerated method. In addition, the Company recorded $1.2 million related to a trademark intangible. This is being amortized over a three year time period.
In many cases, determining the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities required the Company to estimate cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. The most significant of these determinations related to the fair valuation of acquired loans. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and other factors, such as prepayments. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carryover of First Market Banks previously established allowance for loan losses. Subsequent decreases in the expected cash flows (credit deterioration) will require the Company to evaluate the need for additions to the Companys allowance for credit losses. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows will result in the recognition of additional interest income over the then remaining lives of the loans.
The estimated fair value of liabilities assumed was based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows and compared to other securities with similar characteristics and remaining maturities. Specifically, First Market Banks Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) advances, subordinated debt and certificates of deposit were assumed at a net premium. This premium will have a favorable impact on the Companys net interest expense over the next 7 quarters as the premium reduces interest expense based on an accelerated method.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income
The Company reported net income of $8.1 million and basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.29 for its third quarter ended September 30, 2010. The results are a year-over-year increase of $5.3 million in net income and $0.16 in basic and diluted earnings per share from the prior year period which ended on September 30, 2009. The increase in net income from last year largely relates to improvements in the net interest margin and the addition of the operations of the former FMB for the period. Third quarter net income available to common shareholders, which deducts dividends and discount accretion on preferred stock from net income, was $7.5 million compared to $1.9 million for the third quarter last year.
Third quarter net income decreased $653,000 from the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was largely attributable to an increase in the provision for loan losses in response to continued slowness in economic recovery.
The reported net income of $18.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, represented an increase of $13.0 million from the same period a year ago. The increase was largely attributable to the addition of FMB and improvement in the net interest margin, partially offset by nonrecurring acquisition costs and provision for loan losses.
NET INTEREST INCOME
On a linked quarter basis, tax-equivalent net interest income decreased $897,000, or 2.2%, to $39.7 million due principally to lower yields on loans and lower accretion from purchased performing loans partially offset by the continued low cost structure of interest-bearing liabilities. The tax-equivalent net interest margin decreased 18 basis points from 4.65% in the prior quarter to 4.47%. The net interest margin decrease was principally attributable to the aforementioned lower accretion from purchased performing loans and lower yields on investment securities partially offset by a continued low cost structure from interest-bearing liabilities. During the third quarter of 2010, the funding mix shifted from higher cost certificates of deposit to lower cost money market accounts and demand deposits. The following table shows average interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities, their related income/expense and change for the periods shown:

For the three months ended September 30, 2010, tax-equivalent net interest income increased $18.0 million, or 82.6%, to $39.7 million compared to the same period last year. This improvement was principally attributable to declines in costs of interest-bearing liabilities, as well as increased interest-earning assets related to the acquisition of FMB. The tax-equivalent net interest margin increased 78 basis points from 3.69% in the prior year to 4.47%. Improvements in the cost of funds were principally a result of declining costs on certificates of deposit, fair value adjustments from acquisition accounting and lower costs related to FHLB borrowings. The decrease in interest-earning asset yields were principally related to improvements in loan yields offset by lower yields on investment securities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, tax-equivalent net interest income increased $55.4 million, or 92.3%, to $115.4 million compared to the same period last year. This improvement was principally attributable to declines in costs of interest-bearing liabilities as well as increased interest-earning assets related to the acquisition of FMB. The tax-equivalent net interest margin increased 115 basis points from 3.41% in the prior year to 4.56%. The improvement in the cost of funds was principally a result of declining costs on certificates of deposit and money market accounts, fair value adjustments from acquisition accounting and lower costs related to FHLB borrowings.

Acquisition Activity
Total net loans and investment securities acquired in the First Market Bank transaction were recorded at their estimated fair values of $981.5 million and $218.7 million, respectively. The fair value of noninterest and interest-bearing liabilities assumed were $171.1 million and $1.0 billion, respectively. Borrowings assumed were $75.8 million, of which $61.4 million and $14.4 million consisted of FHLB advances and subordinated debt, respectively. Following the acquisition of First Market Bank, the Company reduced wholesale funding by approximately $159.0 million through the sale of $103.0 million in acquired investment securities and excess cash balances.
The acquired loan and investment security portfolios of FMB were marked-to-market with a fair value discount to market rates. The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans and the investment security fair value discount is recognized on a straight line basis over the estimated lives of the investment securities. The Company also assumed FHLB borrowings, subordinated debt and certificates of deposit. These liabilities were marked-to-market with estimates of fair value on acquisition date. FHLB borrowings and certificates of deposit were purchased at a premium to market rates. Subordinated debt was purchased at a discount to market. The related discount (or premium) to market is recorded as an increase (or decrease) to interest expense over the estimated lives of the liabilities.
The impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments on net interest income was $2.8 million and $8.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. If not for this impact, the net interest margin for the third quarter would have been 4.23%, unchanged from the second quarter and a 54 basis point improvement from the same quarter a year ago. The Companys ability to maintain the net interest margin at current levels is largely dependent upon future interest rates, loan demand, and deposit competition.
- 27 -
Performing loan and investment security discount accretion is recognized as interest income over the estimated remaining life of the loans and investment securities. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company compared the expected prepayments at acquisition to actual prepayments and anticipated future payments. The slower prepayment speed noted on land loans during this assessment is considered a change in accounting estimate and resulted in a lower effective yield. A cumulative reduction of $994,000 in discount accretion was recorded during the third quarter, of which $319,000 relates to the current quarter, to align year-to-date accretion following an assessment of actual and anticipated future payments. The Company also assumed borrowings (FHLB and subordinated debt) and certificates of deposit. These liabilities were marked-to-market with estimates of fair value on acquisition date. The resulting discount/premium to market will be accreted/amortized as an increase (or decrease) to interest expense over the estimated lives of the liabilities.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses for the third quarter was $5.9 million, an increase of $1.9 million from the second quarter and $1.4 million from the same quarter a year ago. The current levels of the allowance for loan losses reflect specific reserves related to nonperforming loans, changes in risk ratings on loans, net charge-off activity, loan growth, delinquency trends, and other credit risk factors that the Company considers in assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. As noted above, in acquisition accounting there was no carryover of FMBs previously established allowance for loan losses. The increases in the provision for loan losses from the second quarter was principally related to specific reserves on the acquired commercial real estate and residential real estate loan portfolios, which have shown deterioration since acquisition. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of the total loan portfolio, including net loans
- 30 -
purchased at fair value in the FMB acquisition, was 1.32% at September 30, 2010, 1.20% at June 30, 2010 and 1.75% at September 30, 2009. The reduction in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans compared to the prior year is related to the elimination of FMBs allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of the total loan portfolio, adjusted for acquired loans, was 1.86% at September 30, 2010, an increase from 1.76% at June 30, 2010. This ratio excludes the carrying value of acquired loans but includes any deteriorated loans and related allowance since acquisition.
Noninterest Income
On a linked quarter basis, noninterest income increased $252,000, or 2.1%, to $12.4 million from $12.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Gains on the sale of loans in the mortgage segment increased $714,000 and were driven by increased originations at favorable pricing. Increased loan originations were stimulated by refinances driven by a low interest rate environment in addition to contributions from recent branch office additions. Gains on sales of other real estate owned increased by $327,000 and principally related to individual residential real estate lot sales. Offsetting these increases, other operating income decreased $408,000 primarily related to a non-recurring reversal of a property improvement liability that occurred in the second quarter of 2010. Other service charges and account fees decreased $276,000 and were primarily due to a decline in ATM usage and related surcharges, a decline in letter of credit fees driven by slower construction activity, and a decline in brokerage commissions. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $138,000 and principally related to lower overdraft and returned check and checking account fee income. Excluding the mortgage segment operations, investment securities and real estate sales gains, noninterest income declined $815,000, or 11.7%.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, noninterest income increased $4.5 million, or 56.1%, to $12.4 million from $7.9 million in the same period in 2009 and reflects the FMB acquisition. Gains on sales of loans in the mortgage segment increased $2.2 million, or 58.5%. Gains on the sale of loans were driven by the increased originations, adjustments to loan fee and pricing policies, and the contribution of newer branches originating loans at favorable margins. Other service charges and fees increased $1.4 million, primarily due to debit card income, ATM income, and brokerage commissions. Other operating income increased $436,000 primarily related to trust revenue and bank owned life insurance investment income. Gains on sales of other real estate owned increased $302,000 and principally related to individual residential real estate lot sales. Account service charges increased $128,000, related to commercial and savings accounts fee income partially offset by lower overdraft and returned check income.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, noninterest income increased $9.7 million, or 39.4%, to $34.2 million from $24.5 million in the same period in 2009, and reflects the FMB acquisition for eight months since the acquisition date. Other service charges and fees increased $3.9 million, primarily related to debit card income, ATM income, and brokerage commissions and letter of credit fees. Mortgage originations increased $53.6 million from $518.4 million to $572.0 million, or 10.3%, over the same period last year, as gains on the sale of loans increased $3.3 million, or 26.7%. Gains on the sale of loans were driven by increased originations in addition to the contribution of newer branches originating loans at favorable margins, adjustments to loan fee and pricing policies and volume related revenue incentives. Other operating income increased $1.5 million and primarily related to revenue from the former FMB trust operations, bank owned life insurance investment income, and other income. Account service charges increased $579,000 and related to overdraft and returned check charges and fees on commercial and savings accounts. Gains on sales of other real estate owned increased $400,000 and principally related to individual residential real estate lot sales.
Noninterest Expense
On a linked quarter basis, noninterest expense decreased $1.2 million, or 3.3%, to $34.0 million from $35.2 million for second quarter of 2010. Other operating expenses decreased $1.2 million, or 9.1%, primarily related to decreased marketing and advertising costs of $812,000 in television and print brand awareness campaigns for Union First Market Bank that occurred in the second quarter. Additionally, the Company experienced decreased costs in maintaining the Companys portfolio of other real estate owned of $159,000, and lower Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance and data processing fees of $127,000, and $116,000, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by higher professional fees of $109,000
- 31 -
related to continuing problem loan work outs and foreclosure activity. Other non-recurring costs during the quarter were related to the consolidation of bank affiliates of $259,000 and costs associated with the acquisition of FMB. Excluding mortgage segment operations, acquisition related expenses and gains from investment securities and real estate sales, noninterest expense decreased approximately $1.2 million, or 4.0%, from the second quarter. Remaining costs of the consolidation of bank affiliates, expected to be incurred during the fourth quarter, are approximately $500,000.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, noninterest expense increased $12.9 million, or 61.0%, to $34.0 million from $21.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2009 and reflects the FMB acquisition. Salaries and benefits increased $6.6 million and were primarily due to increased salaries expense of $4.8 million related to additional personnel as result of the acquisition and higher group insurance costs of $468,000 from increased current year premiums and additional personnel. Also contributing to the increase was higher profit sharing expense of $807,000 due to improved profitability. Commissions in the mortgage segment increased $833,000, or 42.3%, as a result of increased originations.
Other operating expenses increased $4.5 million. Included in other operating expenses were higher amortization on acquired intangible assets of $1.6 million, higher internet and communication expenses of $854,000 and higher data processing fees of $401,000 related to increased loans and deposits from the FMB acquisition. Other increased costs included higher legal and professional fees increases of $401,000 due to continuing problem loan work outs and foreclosure activity, increased FDIC insurance premiums of $233,000 and other costs associated with ATMs of $244,000. Occupancy expenses increased $1.2 million primarily related to additional rental expense and operations of acquired branches. Furniture and equipment expense increased $611,000 due to higher depreciation and amortization expense related to acquired fixed assets and equipment service contracts.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, noninterest expense increased $42.5 million, or 67.1%, to $105.9 million from $63.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and reflects the FMB acquisition for the eight months since acquisition date. Other operating expenses increased $20.1 million. This increase included acquisition costs of $7.8 million and increases in amortization of acquired intangible assets of $4.2 million, higher marketing and advertising expenses of $1.9 million related to television and print brand awareness campaigns for Union First Market Bank and higher communications expenses of $2.1 million. Data processing fees also increased $1.6 million and principally related to acquired loans and deposits. Additional other increases of $1.1 million related to ATM, bank card and overdraft losses. Professional fees increased $899,000 primarily related to higher legal fees for continuing problem loan work outs and foreclosure activity. In addition, loan expenses increased $792,000 due to maintenance of the Companys portfolio of other real estate owned and collection efforts on problem loans.
Salaries and benefits expense increased $17.9 million primarily due to higher salaries expense of $12.0 million related principally to additional personnel from the FMB acquisition, higher profit sharing expense of $2.4 million due to improved profitability, higher group insurance costs of $1.4 million due to higher current year premiums and additional personnel as well as higher incentive compensation costs of $712,000. Commissions in the mortgage segment increased $1.5 million, or 25.4%, as a result of increased originations. Occupancy costs increased $3.1 million and primarily related to additional rental expense and operations of acquired branches. Furniture and equipment expense increased $1.4 million due to higher depreciation and amortization expense related to acquired fixed assets and equipment service contracts.
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company incurred the remaining costs related to the acquisition of FMB and no additional costs are expected going forward. Costs included legal and accounting fees, lease and contract termination expenses, system conversion, integrating operations, and employee severances, which were expensed as incurred. For the third quarter, costs associated with the acquisition of FMB were $123,000 and for the nine months ending on September 30, 2010 the costs were $7.8 million. Acquisition-related costs were $307,000 and $948,000 for the three and nine months ended September 2009. The costs are reported as a component of Other operating expenses within the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Total acquisition costs incurred from the date the Company announced the acquisition of FMB through September 30, 2010 were $9.3 million, approximately $1.5 million below the initial estimate of approximately $10.8 million.

Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is based upon the results of operations, adjusted for the effect of certain tax-exempt income and non-deductible expenses. In addition, certain items of income and expense are reported in different periods for financial reporting and tax return purposes. The tax effects of these temporary differences are recognized currently in the deferred income tax provision or benefit. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the applicable enacted marginal tax rate.
The Company must also evaluate the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. If any such assets are not likely to be recovered, a valuation allowance must be recognized. The Company has determined that a valuation allowance is not required for deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2010. The assessment of the carrying value of deferred tax assets is based on certain assumptions, changes in which could have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was 27.3% and 28.2% respectively, compared to 9.7% and 6.1%, respectively, for the same periods in 2009. The reduction in the effective tax rate in the prior year was principally related to lower income before tax with a similar amount of nontaxable municipal bond interest income in each period (i.e., nontaxable income represented a greater portion of total income).
SEGMENT INFORMATION
Community Banking Segment
On a linked quarter basis, net interest income after provision for loan losses, decreased $2.8 million, or 8.1%, to $32.2 million compared to the most recent quarter, due principally to lower accretion from purchased performing loans and the continued low cost structure of interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin decrease was principally attributable to the aforementioned lower accretion from purchased performing loans, lower yields on investment securities and a continued low cost structure from interest-bearing liabilities. During the third quarter, the funding mix shifted from higher cost certificates of deposit to lower cost money market accounts and demand deposits.
Noninterest income decreased $455,000, or 6.5%, from $7.0 million to $6.5 million at September 30, 2010. Gains on sales of other real estate owned increased by $327,000 and principally related to individual residential real estate lot sales. Offsetting these increases, other operating income decreased $407,000 primarily related to a non-recurring reversal of a property improvement liability that occurred in the second quarter. Other service charges and account fees decreased $276,000 and were primarily due to a decline in ATM usage and related surcharges, a decline in letter of credit fees driven by slower construction activity, and a decline in brokerage commissions. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $138,000 and principally related to lower overdraft and returned check and checking account fee income.

- 33 -
to third quarter of 2009. This improvement was principally attributable to declines in costs of interest-bearing liabilities, as well as increased interest-earning assets related to the acquisition of FMB.

Originations increased $76.1 million from $144.3 million to $220.4 million, or 52.7%, during the same period last year. Gains on the sale of loans increased $2.2 million, or 58.8%, driven by the increased originations, adjustments to loan fee and pricing policies and the contribution of newer branches originating loans at favorable margins. Noninterest expenses increased $1.5 million. Of this amount, salaries and benefits increased $1.2 million primarily related to increased commissions associated with the growth of loan originations and expenses connected to the addition of branch office and corporate support personnel. Other operating expenses increased $149,000 principally due to increased loan costs related to higher origination volume, investments in technology and management fees.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the mortgage segment net income increased $327,000, or 16.8%, to $2.3 million from $1.9 million in the same period of 2009. Originations increased $53.6 million from $518.4 million to $572.0 million, or 10.3%, compared to the same period last year, as gains on the sale of loans increased $3.3 million, or 26.8%. Gains on the sale of loans were driven by increased originations in addition to the contribution of newer branches originating loans at favorable margins, adjustments to loan fee and pricing policies and volume related revenue incentives. Noninterest expenses increased $3.1 million. Of this amount, salaries and benefits increased $2.4 million primarily related to increased commissions generated by loan originations as well as costs associated with additional branch office and corporate support personnel required to support production growth. Other operating expenses increased $541,000 principally due to origination related increased underwriting costs and loan expenses in addition to higher operating expenses for communications and office supplies associated with additional branch offices.
BALANCE SHEET
At September 30, 2010, total cash and cash equivalents were $80.1 million, a decrease of $55.6 million from June 30, 2010, and an increase of $34.2 million and $8.8 million from December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively. At September 30, 2010, net loans were $2.8 billion, an increase of $19.1 million from the prior quarter. Net loans increased $961.1 million, or 52.1%, from December 31, 2009, and increased $952.7 million, or 51.4%, compared to September 30, 2009. Both of these period increases were principally the result of the acquired loan portfolio of FMB, which totaled $981.5 million at acquisition. The Companys mortgage segment increased loans held for sale by $9.7 million from the prior quarter, by $30.1
- 35 -
million from December 31, 2009 and by $42.3 million from September 30, 2009 as mortgage production remained strong. At September 30, 2010, total assets were $3.86 billion, a decrease of $14.9 million compared to the second quarter. Total assets increased $1.3 billion from $2.6 billion at both December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively, driven principally by the acquisition of FMB.
Total deposits decreased $21.3 million compared to the most recent quarter, driven by lower demand deposits. Total deposits increased $1.2 billion, or 60.4%, from December 31, 2009, and $1.1 billion, or 56.4%, from September 30, 2010. Both of these period increases principally related to the acquired deposits of FMB, which totaled $1.2 billion. Total borrowings, including repurchase agreements, decreased $2.2 million on a linked quarter basis and $40.0 million from December 31, 2009. Total borrowings increased $66.3 million to $326.1 million at September 30, 2010 from the same period a year ago. The Companys equity to assets ratio was 11.16% and 13.17% at September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Companys tangible common equity to assets ratio was 8.19% and 8.70% at September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Management remains focused on maintaining strong levels of liquidity and capital during this challenging environment and believes its sound risk management practices in underwriting and lending will enable the Company to weather successfully this period of economic uncertainty.
Liquidity
Liquidity represents an institutions ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Management monitors liquidity levels on a daily basis. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, money market investments, Federal funds sold, loans held for sale, investment securities and loans maturing or repricing within one year. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds when necessary through Federal funds lines with several correspondent banks, a line of credit with the FHLB, and a corporate line of credit with a large correspondent bank. Management considers the Companys overall liquidity to be sufficient to satisfy its depositors requirements and to meet its customers credit needs.
As of September 30, 2010, cash, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, money market investments, Federal funds sold, loans held for sale, investment securities and loans that mature within one year totaled $1.5 billion, or 43.9%, of total earning assets. As of September 30, 2010, approximately $1.3 billion, or 47.1%, of total loans are scheduled to mature within one year. In addition to deposits, the Company utilizes Federal funds purchased, FHLB advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and customer repurchase agreements, to fund the growth in its loan portfolio, securities purchases, and periodically, wholesale leverage transactions.

The mix of the Companys loan portfolio did not materially change as a result of the FMB acquisition. Equity loans, dealer loans and construction and development loans as a percentage of total loans increased slightly, while the residential 1-4 family percentage decreased slightly. As reflected in the loan table, at September 30, 2010, the largest component of the Companys loan portfolio consisted of real estate loans, concentrated in commercial, construction and residential 1-4 family. The risks attributable to these concentrations are mitigated by the Companys credit underwriting and monitoring processes, including oversight by a centralized credit administration function and credit policy and risk management committee, as well as seasoned bankers focusing their lending to borrowers with proven track records in markets with which the Company is familiar.
Approximately $976.7 million, or 34.4%, of the Companys loan portfolio are amortizing commercial real estate loans (a combination of commercial and multifamily loans in the above table). While there continue to be industry concerns over possible softening in the commercial real estate sector, the Companys portfolio is not highly speculative or concentrated in large credits and has not experienced significant deterioration in the current credit cycle. Approximately 44.0% of the Companys commercial real estate loans are owner-occupied and typically carry a lower risk of loss. In addition, $514.8 million of the loan portfolio is concentrated in real estate construction loans, including raw land, land development, residential lots, speculative and presold residential construction and commercial construction loans (both owner-occupied and non-owner occupied). Of this amount, $215.3 million, or 41.8%, represents land and lot loans; $123.5 million, or 24%, represents land development loans; $86.7 million, or 16.8%, represents speculative and presold residential construction loans and $89.4 million, or 17.4%, is commercial construction. The Companys real estate lending is conducted within its operating footprint in markets it understands and monitors.
Asset Quality
Overview
Asset quality remains a primary focus of the Company. During the third quarter, the Company continued to experience some deterioration in asset quality as the economy remained soft. While economic indicators suggest the recession has technically ended and there are signs of increased economic activity (including Virginia housing markets), the signals are somewhat mixed and there could be additional softening in asset quality in the near term. The magnitude of any such softening is largely dependent upon any lagging impact on commercial real estate, the recovery of residential housing, and the pace at which the local economies recover.
- 37 -
Necessary resources continue to be devoted to the ongoing review of the loan portfolio and the workouts of problem assets to minimize any losses to the Company. The Company has in place a special assets loan committee, which includes the Companys Chief Executive Officer, Chief Credit Officer, and other senior lenders and credit officers who address significant potential problem loans, formulate strategies, and develop action plans related to such assets. Management will continue to monitor delinquencies, risk rating changes, charge-offs, market trends and other indicators of risk in the Companys portfolio, particularly those tied to residential and commercial real estate, and adjust the allowance for loan losses accordingly. Historically, and particularly in the current economic environment, the Company seeks to work with its customers on loan collection matters while taking appropriate actions to improve the Companys position and minimize any losses. These loans are closely monitored and evaluated for collection with appropriate loss reserves established whenever necessary.
Portfolio Concentration
The Companys loan portfolio has a significant concentration in real estate loans. The composition, risk and performance of the Companys loan portfolio are reflective of the relatively stable markets in which it operates. During the economic downturn, both residential acquisition and development lending and builder/construction lending were scaled back as housing activity across the Companys markets declined. While this softening has negatively impacted delinquency and nonperforming asset levels, the collateralized nature of real estate loans serves to better protect the Company from losses.
Acquisition
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company acquired the loan portfolio of FMB at a fair value discount of $30.0 million (the discount represents expected credit losses, comparison to market rates and liquidity adjustments). The performing loan portfolio fair value estimate was $960.7 million, and the impaired loan portfolio fair value estimate was $20.8 million. During the third quarter and year-to-date, the Company recognized $4.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively in provision for loan losses related to the acquired portfolio, offsetting a portion of the accretion on the acquired performing loan portfolio.
Loans obtained in connection with the FMB acquisition have been accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations and/or ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (ASC 310-30) if the loan experienced deterioration of credit quality at the time of acquisition. Both require that acquired loans be recorded at fair value and prohibit the carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. Determining the fair value of the acquired loans required estimating cash flows expected to be collected on the loans. Because ASC 310-30 loans (i.e., impaired loans) have been recorded at fair value, such loans were not classified as nonaccrual even though some payments may be or may have been contractually past due. The carrying amount of purchased impaired loans was $16.5 million at September 30, 2010, or approximately 0.58% of total loans.
Nonperforming Assets (NPAs)
At September 30, 2010, nonperforming assets totaled $78.0 million, a slight increase of $700,000 compared to the second quarter and an increase of $34.6 million compared to the same period a year ago. The increase in NPAs continues to be related to stresses in the residential home builder market, which is largely a result of the broader and extended economic slowdown. Given the outlook for a prolonged economic recovery, these levels of nonperforming assets are likely to remain unchanged in the near term. The increase compared to the second quarter principally related to increases in nonaccrual loans of $2.7 million partially offset by lower other real estate owned (OREO) of $2.0 million. The net increase in nonaccrual loans are principally within the commercial real estate loan and residential loan portfolios. At September 30, 2010, the coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 72.4%, a decline from 111.1% a year earlier and up from 69.4% in the second quarter.

Nonperforming Loans (NPLs)
Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2010 included $51.6 million in NPLs as summarized in the table below. The following table reflects the balances and changes from the most recent quarter (dollars in thousands):

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)
Nonperforming assets also included $26.4 million in OREO. Included in land development is $8.7 million related to a residential community in the Northern Neck region of Virginia, which includes developed residential lots, a golf course and undeveloped land. Foreclosed properties were adjusted to their fair values at the time of each foreclosure and any losses were taken as loan charge-offs against the allowance for loan losses at that time. OREO asset valuations are also evaluated at least quarterly and any necessary write down to fair value is recorded as impairment; $43,000 was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. During the third quarter, the Company reduced OREO by $2.0 million, selling approximately $4.0 million at a net gain of $332,000 while adding $2.0 million. The sales principally related to a partially completed land development project and residential real estate properties on a lot by lot basis. The Company expects this type of activity to continue until the market for these properties and the economy as a whole improve. The Company also believes that its foreclosure practices are sound.
Additionally, nonperforming assets also included $26.4 million in OREO as summarized in the table below. The following table reflects the balances and changes from the most recent quarter (dollars in thousands):

Net charge-offs in the third quarter included real estate loans of $1.5 million, consumer loans of $715,000 and commercial loans of $310,000. At September 30, 2010, total past due loans were $56.6 million, or 1.99%, of total loans, an increase from 1.53% a year ago, and from 1.79% at June 30, 2010.

Capital Resources
Capital resources represent funds, earned or obtained, over which financial institutions can exercise greater or longer control in comparison with deposits and borrowed funds. The adequacy of the Companys capital is reviewed by management on an ongoing basis with reference to size, composition, and quality of the Companys resources consistent with regulatory requirements and industry standards. Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses, yet allow management to effectively leverage its capital to maximize return to shareholders.
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the FDIC have adopted capital guidelines to supplement the existing definitions of capital for regulatory purposes and to establish minimum capital standards. Specifically, the guidelines categorize assets and off-balance sheet items into four risk-weighted categories. The minimum ratio of qualifying total assets is 8.0%, of which 4.0% must be Tier 1 capital, consisting of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of perpetual preferred stock, less certain intangible items. The Company had a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.44% and a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 12.75% as of September 30, 2010. In addition, each of the Companys subsidiary banks had risk-based capital ratios exceeding the minimum requirements of well-capitalized as established by the Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the FDIC. The Companys equity to asset ratio was 11.16% at September 30, 2010.
While the subsidiary banks risk-based capital levels were considered well-capitalized by regulatory definition at September 30, 2010, a prolonged period of earnings at current levels and dividend payouts could negatively impact capital ratios. The Company has a capital planning and monitoring process in place as it strives to maintain its historical strong capital levels and remain well-capitalized.
As noted earlier, on February 1, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of First Market Bank in an all stock transaction. In connection with the transaction, the Company issued a total of 7,477,273 common shares with an acquisition date fair value of $96.1 million.
In September 2009, the Company completed a follow-on equity raise, which generated cash and capital of approximately $58.8 million, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses, from the issuance of 4,725,000 shares of common stock at a price of $13.25 per share.
In December 2008, the Company issued to the U. S. Treasury 59,000 shares of the Companys Series A Preferred Stock having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, for a total price of $59 million. The
- 40 -
issuance was made pursuant to the U.S. Treasurys Capital Purchase Program (CPP) under the Troubled Asset Relief Program. The Series A Preferred Stock paid a cumulative dividend at a rate of 5% per year during the first five years and thereafter at 9% per year. The transaction closed on December 19, 2008. At the time of issuance, the U. S. Treasury also received a warrant to purchase 422,636 shares of the Companys common stock at an initial per share exercise price of $20.94 to expire 10 years from the issuance date. In November 2009, the Company redeemed the Series A Preferred Stock, by repaying, with accumulated dividends, the $59 million it received in December 2008. Additionally, in December 2009, the Company entered into a Warrant Repurchase Letter Agreement (Warrant Repurchase) with the U. S. Treasury to repurchase a warrant to purchase 211,318 shares of the Companys common stock that was issued in connection with the Companys sale of Series A Preferred Stock. Only half of the share equivalent was required to be repurchased as part of the Warrant Repurchase. As a result of the Warrant Repurchase, the Company had no securities issued or outstanding to the U. S. Treasury and was no longer participating in the U. S. Treasurys CPP as of November 18, 2009.
Prior to being acquired by the Company, First Market Bank participated in the U.S. Treasurys CPP. In connection with the acquisition of First Market Bank, each share of Series B and Series C preferred stock of First Market Bank issued to the U.S. Treasury was converted into one share of the Companys Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B. Despite the U.S. Treasurys being the sole holder of the Companys Series B Preferred Stock, the Company is not considered a participant in the U.S. Treasurys CPP.
The Companys outstanding series of preferred stock resulted from the acquisition of First Market Bank. On February 6, 2009, First Market Bank issued and sold to the U. S. Treasury 33,900 shares of its Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B and a warrant to purchase up to 1,695 shares of its Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C. The U. S. Treasury immediately exercised the warrant for the entire 1,695 shares. In connection with the Companys acquisition of FMB, the board of directors established a series of preferred stock with substantially identical preferences, rights and limitations to the First Market Bank preferred stock, except as explained below. Pursuant to the closing of the acquisition, each share of First Market Bank Series B and Series C preferred stock was exchanged for one share of the Companys Series B preferred stock. The Series B preferred stock of the Company pays cumulative dividends to the U.S. Treasury at a rate of 5.19% per annum for the first five years and thereafter at a rate of 9.0% per annum. The 5.19% dividend rate is a blended rate comprised of the dividend rate of the 33,900 shares of First Market Bank 5% Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and 1,695 shares of First Market Bank 9% Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock. The Series B preferred stock of the Company is non-voting and each share has a liquidation preference of $1,000. The Company anticipates redemption of this capital issue during 2011, subject to regulatory approval.
In connection with its acquisitions of Prosperity Bank & Trust Company and Guaranty Financial Corporation, the Company issued trust preferred capital notes to fund the cash portion of those acquisitions, collectively totaling $58.5 million. The total of the trust preferred capital notes currently qualify for Tier 1 capital of the Company for regulatory purposes.

NON-GAAP MEASURES
In reporting the results as of September 30, 2010, the Company has provided supplemental performance measures on an operating or tangible basis. Such measures exclude amortization expense related to intangible assets, such as core deposit intangibles. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors as they exclude non-operating adjustments resulting from acquisition activity and allow investors to see the combined economic results of the organization.
These measures are a supplement to GAAP used to prepare the Companys financial statements and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP measures. In addition, the Companys non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP measures of other companies.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures from their respective GAAP basis measures is presented in the following table (dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. The Companys market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) of the Company is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to this risk. The Companys Board of Directors reviews and approves the guidelines established by ALCO.
Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of three complementary modeling tools: static gap analysis, earnings simulation modeling, and economic value simulation (net present value estimation). Each of these models measures changes in a variety of interest rate scenarios. While each of the interest rate risk models has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk in the Company, the distribution of risk along the yield curve, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain interest rate relationships. Static gap, which measures aggregate re-pricing values, is less utilized because it does not effectively measure the options risk impact on the Company and is not addressed here. Earnings simulation and economic value models, which more effectively measure the cash flow and optionality impacts, are utilized by management on a regular basis and are explained below.
EARNINGS SIMULATION ANALYSIS
Management uses simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates. The model calculates an earnings estimate based on current and projected balances and rates. This method is subject to the accuracy of the assumptions that underlie the process, but it provides a better analysis of the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates than other analyses, such as the static gap analysis discussed above.
Assumptions used in the model are derived from historical trends and managements outlook and include loan and deposit growth rates and projected yields and rates. Such assumptions are monitored and periodically adjusted as appropriate. All maturities, calls and prepayments in the securities portfolio are assumed to be reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities prepayment assumptions are based on industry estimates of prepayment speeds for portfolios with similar coupon ranges and seasoning. Different interest rate scenarios and yield curves are used to measure the sensitivity of earnings to changing interest rates. Interest rates on different asset and liability accounts move differently when the prime rate changes and are reflected in the different rate scenarios.
The Company uses its simulation model to estimate earnings in rate environments where rates ramp up or down around a most likely rate scenario, based on implied forward rates. The analysis assesses the impact on net interest income over a 12 month time horizon by applying 12-month rate ramps, with interest rates rising gradually, versus an immediate increase or shock in rates, of 100 basis points up to 200 basis points. The ramp down 200 basis points analysis is not meaningful as interest rates are at historic lows and cannot decrease another 200 basis points. The model, under all scenarios, does not drop the index below zero. The following table represents the interest rate sensitivity on net interest income for the Company across the rate paths modeled for balances ended September 30, 2010 (dollars in thousands):

ECONOMIC VALUE SIMULATION
Economic value simulation is used to calculate the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate environments. Economic values are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The net economic value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities. The change in net economic value over different rate environments is an indication of the longer-term earnings capability of the balance sheet. The same assumptions are used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation. The economic value simulation uses instantaneous rate shocks to the balance sheet where the earnings simulation uses rate ramps over 12 months. The following chart reflects the estimated change in net economic value over different rate environments using economic value simulation for the balances at the period ended September 30, 2010 (dollars in thousands):
Change In Economic Value of Equity | ||||||||
% | $ | |||||||
Change in Yield Curve: |
||||||||
+200 basis points |

(8.02 | ) | (38,904 | ) | ||||
-200 basis points |
(14.12 | ) | (68,465 | ) |

The down 200 basis points scenario is impacted largely by the low rate environment, where a 200 basis point shock to rates would take most rates on the yield curve to a floor of zero. While management considers this scenario highly unlikely, the natural floor increases the Companys sensitivity in rates down scenarios.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. There was no change in the internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
In the ordinary course of its operations, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings. Based on the information presently available, and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome in such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the business or the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
There have been no material changes with respect to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.
