Short-term Borrowings

Total short-term borrowings consist of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are secured transactions with customers and generally mature the day following the date sold.

The Bank maintains federal funds lines with several correspondent banks; the remaining available balance was $87.0 million and $113.0 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company has certain restrictive covenants related to certain asset quality, capital, and profitability metrics associated with these lines and is considered to be in compliance with these covenants. Additionally, the Company had a collateral dependent line of credit with the FHLB of up to $802.2 million and $776.8 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Long-term Borrowings

During the first quarter of 2004, the Company’s Statutory Trust I, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued a Trust Preferred Capital Note of $22.5 million through a pooled underwriting for an acquisition in 2004. The securities have an indexed London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) floating rate (three month LIBOR rate plus 2.75%) which adjusts and is payable quarterly. The interest rate at December 31, 2012 was 3.06%. The capital securities were redeemable at par beginning on June 17, 2009 and quarterly thereafter until the securities mature on June 17, 2034. The principal asset of Statutory Trust I is $23.2 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the capital notes. Of the above amount, $696,000 is reflected as the Company’s investment in Statutory Trust I and reported as “Other assets” within the consolidated balance sheets.

During the first quarter of 2006, the Company’s Statutory Trust II, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued a Trust Preferred Capital Note of $36.0 million through a pooled underwriting for an acquisition in 2006. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate (three month LIBOR plus 1.40%) that adjusts and is payable quarterly. The interest rate at December 31, 2012 was 1.71% (see Note 19 “Derivatives” for further discussion of the related cash flow hedge). The capital securities were redeemable at par on June 15, 2011 and quarterly thereafter until the securities mature on June 15, 2036. The principal asset of Statutory Trust II is $37.1 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the capital notes. Of this amount, $1.1 million is reflected as the Company’s investment in Statutory Trust II reported as “Other assets” within the consolidated balance sheets.

The obligations of the Company with respect to the issuance of the capital securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the trust’s obligations with respect to the capital securities. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may elect from time to time to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related capital securities and require a deferral of common dividends. No such deferrals have taken place to date.

As part of the acquisition of FMB, the Company assumed subordinated debt with terms of LIBOR plus 1.45% and a maturity date of April 2016. At December 31, 2012 the carrying value of the subordinated debt, net of the purchase accounting discount, was $15.9 million.

On August 23, 2012, the Company modified its fixed rate FHLB advances to floating rate advances which resulted in reducing the Company’s FHLB borrowing costs. In connection with this modification, the Company incurred a prepayment penalty of $19.6 million on the original advances, which is included as a component of long-term borrowings in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with Accounting Statements Codification (“ASC”) 470-50, Modifications and Extinguishments, the Company will amortize this prepayment penalty over the term of the modified advances using the effective rate method. The amortization expense is included as a component of interest expense on long-term borrowings on the Company’s consolidated income statement. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $612,000 and $0.
