INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT 

March 7, 2014 

Shareholders and Board of Directors 
Fentura Financial, Inc. 
Fenton, Michigan 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Fentura  Financial,  Inc.  (the 
“Corporation”),  which  comprise  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  as  of  December  31,  2013  and  2012,  and  the 
related  consolidated  statements  of  income,  comprehensive  income,  shareholders’  equity  and  cash  flows  for  the 
years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. 

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in 
accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America;  this  includes  the 
design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of 
consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

Independent Auditors’ Responsibility 

Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  these  consolidated  financial  statements  based  on  our  audits.    We 
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.  
Those  standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the 
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  

An  audit  involves  performing  procedures  to  obtain  audit  evidence  about  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the 
consolidated  financial  statements.    The  procedures  selected  depend  on  auditor  judgment,  including  the 
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or 
error.    In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the  auditor  considers  internal  control  relevant  to  the  Corporation’s 
preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that 
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the 
Corporation’s  internal  control.    Accordingly,  we  express  no  such  opinion.    An  audit  also  includes  evaluating  the 
appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  significant  accounting  estimates  made  by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit 
opinion. 

Opinion 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the 
consolidated financial position of Fentura Financial, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated 
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles 
generally accepted in the United States of America. 

Emphasis of Matter 

As more fully described in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the reversal of a large 
portion of a deferred income tax asset valuation allowance in 2013 had a significant impact on net income for the 
year.

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  Fentura  Financial,  Inc.  (the  “Corporation”) 
and its wholly owned subsidiaries Fentura Holdings LLC (“FHLLC”) and The State Bank (“the 
Bank”)  in  Fenton,  Michigan.    Intercompany  transactions  and  balances  are  eliminated  in 
consolidation. 

The Corporation provides banking and trust services principally to individuals, small businesses 
and governmental entities through its eight community banking offices in Genesee, Livingston, 
and  Oakland  Counties  in  southeastern  Michigan.    Its  primary  deposit  products  are  checking, 
savings,  and  term  certificate  accounts,  and  its  primary  lending  products  are  residential 
mortgage,  commercial,  and  installment  loans.  Commercial  real  estate  loans  were  50.1%  and 
51.7%  of  gross  loans,  and  other  commercial  loans  were  17.1%  and  21.7%  of  gross  loans  at 
December  31,  2013  and  2012,  respectively.    Substantially  all  loans  are  secured  by  specific 
items  of  collateral  including  business  assets,  consumer  assets,  and  real  estate.    Commercial 
loans  are  expected  to  be  repaid  from  cash  flow  from  operations  of  businesses.    Real  estate 
loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate.  The Corporation’s exposure 
to credit risk is substantially affected by the economy in the Corporation’s market area and by 
changes in commercial real estate values.  While the loan portfolio is substantially commercial 
based, the Corporation is not dependent on any single borrower. Other financial instruments 
which  potentially  represent  concentrations  of  credit  risk  in  the  normal  course  of  business 
include deposit accounts in other financial institutions and federal funds sold. 

The  Bank’s  primary  sources  of  liquidity  are  time  deposits  and  non-maturity  deposits.    At 
December  31,  2013  retail  time  deposits  equal  21.2%  of  total  deposits.    This  is  compared  to 
December  31,  2012  when  retail  time  deposits  consisted  of  22.8%  of  total  deposits.    Details 
regarding deposits are further described in Note 7 of the consolidated financial statements. 

Use of Estimates 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles 
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates 
and assumptions based on available information.  These estimates and assumptions affect the 
amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the disclosures provided, and 
future  results  could  differ.    The  allowance  for  loan  losses,  the  fair  values  of  securities  and 
other financial instruments, other than temporary impairment of securities, the carrying value 
of other real estate owned, the valuation of share appreciation rights and deferred taxes are 
particularly subject to change. 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents, includes cash, deposits with other financial institutions under 
90  days,  and  federal  funds  sold.    Net  cash  flows  are  reported  for  customer  loan  and 
deposit transactions and short-term borrowings. 

Investment Securities 
Securities  are  classified  as  held  to  maturity  and  carried  at  amortized  cost  when 
management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity.  Securities are 
classified  as  available  for  sale  when  they  might  be  sold  before  maturity.    Securities

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

available  for  sale  are  carried  at  fair  value,  with  unrealized  holding  gains  and  losses 
reported in other comprehensive income (loss).   

Interest  income  includes  amortization  of  purchase  premium  or  discount.    Premiums  and 
discounts  on  securities  are  amortized  on  the  level-yield  method  without  anticipating 
prepayments, except for mortgage-backed securities, where prepayments are anticipated.  
Premiums are amortized to call date whereby discounts are amortized to maturity.  Gains 
and losses on sales are based on the amortized cost of the security sold.   

Management  evaluates  securities  for  other-than-temporary  impairment  (“OTTI”)  at  least 
on  a  quarterly  basis,  and  more  frequently  when  economic  or  market  conditions  warrant 
such an evaluation. 

In determining OTTI management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time 
and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition 
and  near-term  prospects  of  the  issuer,  (3) whether  the  market  decline  was  affected  by 
macroeconomic  conditions,  and  (4) whether  the  Corporation  has  the  intent  to  sell  the 
debt  security  or  it  is  more  likely  than  not  it  will  be  required  to  sell  the  debt  security 
before  its  anticipated  recovery.  The  assessment  of  whether  an  other-than-temporary 
decline  exists  involves  a  high  degree  of  subjectivity  and  judgment  and  is  based  on  the 
information available to management at a point in time. 

When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether the 
Corporation intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to 
sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit 
loss. If the Corporation intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to 
sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit 
loss, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the 
investment’s  amortized  cost  basis  and  its  fair  value  at  the  balance  sheet  date.  If  the 
Corporation does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the 
Corporation will not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost 
basis  less  any  current-period  loss,  the  OTTI  shall  be  separated  into  the  amount 
representing  the  credit  loss  and  the  amount  related  to  all  other  factors.  The  amount  of 
the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash 
flows  expected  to  be  collected  and  is  recognized  in  earnings.  The  amount  of  the  total 
OTTI  related  to  other  factors  is  recognized  in  other  comprehensive  income,  net  of 
applicable  taxes.  The  previous  amortized  cost  basis  less  the OTTI  recognized  in  earnings 
becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment. 

Loans 
Loans  that  management  has  the  intent  and  ability  to  hold  for  the  foreseeable  future  or 
until  maturity  or  payoffs  are  reported  at  the  principal  balance  outstanding,  net  of 
unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses.  Loans 
held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value, on an aggregate basis and are 
sold with servicing rights released. 

Interest  income  is  reported  on  the  interest  method  and  includes  amortization  of  net 
deferred  loan  fees  and  costs  over  the  loan  term.    Loan  origination  fees,  net  of  certain 
direct  origination  costs,  are  deferred  and  recognized  in  interest  income  using  the  level-
yield method without anticipating prepayments.  Interest income is not reported when full 
loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due 
over 90 days (180 days for residential mortgages).

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

All interest accrued in the current year but not received for loans placed on non-accrual 
are reversed against current interest income.  Interest received on such loans is accounted 
for  on  the  cash-basis  or  cost-recovery  method,  until  qualifying  for  return  to  accrual.  
Loans  are  returned  to  accrual  status  when  all  the  principal  and  interest  amounts 
contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. 

Allowance for Loan Losses 
The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, 
increased  by  the  provision  for  loan  losses  and  decreased  by  charge-offs  less  recoveries.  
Management  estimates  the  allowance  balance  required  using  past  loan  loss  experience, 
the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and 
estimated  collateral  values,  economic  conditions,  and  other  factors.    Allocations  of  the 
allowance  may  be  made  for  specific  loans,  but  the  entire  allowance  is  available  for  any 
loan  that,  in  management’s  judgment,  should  be  charged-off.    Loan  losses  are  charged 
against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is 
confirmed.  Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. 

The  allowance  consists  of  specific,  general,  and  unallocated  components.    The  specific 
component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise 
classified as substandard or doubtful.  The general component covers non-classified loans 
and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.  The historical loss 
experience  is  determined  by  portfolio  segments  and  is  based  on  the  actual  weighted 
average  loss  history  experienced  by  the  Corporation  over  a  range  of  the  most  recent  4 
quarters to the most recent 20 quarters.  This actual loss experience is supplemented with 
other  economic  factors  based  on  the  risks  present  for  each  portfolio  segment.    These 
economic  factors  include  consideration  of  the  following:  levels  of  and  trends  in 
delinquencies  and  impaired  loans;  levels  of  and  trends  in  charge-offs  and  recoveries; 
trends  in  volume  and  terms  of  loans;  effects  of  any  changes  in  risk  selection  and 
underwriting  standards;  other  changes  in  lending  policies,  procedures,  and  practices; 
experience,  ability  and  depth  of  lending  management  and  other  relevant  staff;  national 
and local economic trends and  conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in 
credit  concentrations. 
identified: 
commercial,  commercial  real  estate,  residential  mortgage,  installment  loans,  and  home 
equity loans. 

  The  following  portfolio  segments  have  been 

A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected.  Commercial 
and commercial real estate loans are individually evaluated for impairment.  If a loan is 
impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the 
present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair 
value  of  collateral  if  repayment  is  expected  solely  from  the  collateral.    Large  groups  of 
smaller  balance  homogeneous  loans,  such  as  consumer  and  residential  real  estate  loans 
are  collectively  evaluated  for  impairment,  and  accordingly,  they  are  not  separately 
identified for impairment disclosures.

Troubled Debt Restructurings 
Under  certain  circumstances,  the  Bank  will  provide  borrowers  relief  through  loan 
restructurings  and  modifications.  A  loan  restructuring  constitutes  a  troubled  debt 
restructuring (“TDR”) if for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial 
difficulties  the  Corporation  grants  a  concession  to  the  borrower  that  it  would  not 
otherwise consider. Restructured loans typically present an elevated level of credit risk as 
the borrowers are not able to perform according to the original contractual terms. Loans 
that are reported as TDRs are considered impaired and are measured for impairment. 

Loans Held for Sale 
Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the 
lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate.  Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized 
through a valuation allowance of which the provision is accounted for in the consolidated 
statements of income.   

Transfers of Financial Assets 
Transfers of financial assets, including mortgage loans held-for-sale, as described above, 
are  accounted  for  as  sales  when  control  over  the  assets  has  been  surrendered.    Control 
over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when 1) the assets have been legally 
isolated  from  the  Bank,  2)  the  transferee  obtains  the  right  (free  of  conditions  that 
constrain  it  from  taking  advantage  of  that  right)  to  pledge  or  exchange  the  transferred 
assets  and  3)  the  Bank  does  not  maintain  effective  control  over  the  transferred  assets 
through  an  agreement  to  repurchase  them  before  their  maturity.    The  Bank  has  no 
substantive continuing involvement related to these loans.   

Other Real Estate Owned and Foreclosed Assets 
Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value 
less  estimated  selling  costs  when  acquired,  establishing  a  new  cost  basis.    If  fair  value 
declines, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense.  Costs after acquisition are 
expensed. 

Bank Premises and Equipment 
Land  is  carried  at  cost.    Premises  and  equipment  are  stated  at  cost  less  accumulated 
depreciation.    Buildings  and  related  components  are  depreciated  using  the  straight-line 
method with useful lives ranging from 15 to 40 years.  Furniture, fixtures, and equipment 
are depreciated using the straight-line method with useful lives ranging from 3 to 7 years.  
Premises  and  equipment  and  other  assets  are  reviewed  for  impairment  when  events 
indicate  their  carrying  amount  may  not  be  recoverable  from  future  undiscounted  cash 
flows.  If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value, if lower than carrying amount. 

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock 
The  Bank  is  a  member  of  the  FHLB  system.    Members  are  required  to  own  a  certain 
amount  of  stock  based  on  the  level  of  borrowings  and  other  factors,  and  may  invest 
additional amounts.  FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and 
periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value.  Both cash 
and stock dividends are reported as income.

Bank Owned Life Insurance 
The  Corporation  holds  life  insurance  policies  purchased  on  the  lives  of  key  members  of 
management.    In  the  event  of  death  of  one  of  these  individuals,  the  Corporation,  as 
beneficiary  of  the  policies,  would  receive  a  specified  cash  payment  equal  to  the  face 
value  of  the  policy.    Such  policies  are  recorded  at  their  cash  surrender  value,  or  the 
amount that can be currently realized as of the balance sheet date.  The change in cash 
surrender  value  is  an  adjustment  of  premiums  paid  in  determining  the  net  expense  or 
income  recognized  under  the  contracts  for  the  year  and  is  included  in  noninterest 
expenses. 

Stock Based Compensation 
Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and stock appreciation rights based on 
the  fair  value  of  these  awards  at  the  date  of  grant.    A  valuation  model  is  utilized  to 
estimate the fair value of stock options and stock appreciation rights. Compensation cost 
is  recognized  over  the  requisite  service  period,  generally  defined  as  the  vesting  period.  
For awards with  graded vesting,  compensation  cost  is  recognized  on  a straight-line  basis 
over the requisite service period for the entire award. 

Income Taxes 
Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the 
change  in  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities.    Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  the 
expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and 
tax  bases  of  assets  and  liabilities,  computed  using  enacted  tax  rates.    If  determined 
necessary, a valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to 
be realized. 

A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax 
position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed 
to occur.  The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater 
than 50% likelihood of being realized on examination including the appeals process.  For 
tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.   

The  Corporation  recognizes  interest  and/or  penalties  related  to  income  tax  matters  in 
income  tax  expense.  Such  interest  or  penalties  recorded  in  2013  or  2012  were  not 
significant.  As more fully described in Note 9, a reversal of a large portion of a deferred 
income tax asset valuation allowance in 2013 had a significant impact on net income for 
the year. 

Loan Commitments and Financial Instruments 
Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments 
to  make  loans  and  standby  letters  of  credit,  issued  to  meet  customer  financing  needs.  
The  face  amount  for  these  items  represents  the  exposure  to  loss,  before  considering 
customer  collateral  or  ability  to  repay.    Such  financial  instruments  are  recorded  when 
they are funded. 

Earnings Per Common Share 
Basic  earnings  per  common  share  is  calculated  as  net  income  divided  by  the  weighted 
average  number  of  common  shares  outstanding  during  the  period.    Employee  Stock 
Ownership  Plan  (ESOP)  shares  are  considered  outstanding  for  this  calculation  unless 
unearned.  Stock options were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common 
share because they were antidilutive.   
Comprehensive Income  

11 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
FENTURA FINANCIAL, INC. 

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Comprehensive  income  consists  of  net  income  and  other  comprehensive  income  (loss).  
Other  comprehensive  income  (loss)  includes  unrealized  gains  and  losses  on  securities 
available for sale, which are also recognized as separate components of equity. 

Loss Contingencies 
Loss  contingencies,  including  claims  and  legal  actions  arising  in  the  ordinary  course  of 
business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount 
or range of loss can be reasonably estimated.   

Restrictions on Cash 
Cash  on  hand  or  on  deposit  with  the  Federal  Reserve  Bank  of  $25,000  was  required  to 
meet regulatory reserve and clearing requirements at December 31, 2013 and 2012.   

Dividend Restrictions 
The  Holding  Company  is  under  restrictions  by  the  Federal  Reserve  regarding  the 
declaration or payment of any dividends to shareholders and the receipt of dividends from 
the Bank.   

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and 
other  assumptions,  as  more  fully  disclosed  in  Note  12.    Fair  value  estimates  involve 
uncertainties  and  matters  of  significant  judgment  regarding  interest  rates,  credit  risk, 
prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular 
items.    Changes  in  assumptions  or  in  market  conditions  could  significantly  affect  the 
estimates. 

Reclassifications 
Certain  items  in  the  prior  year  consolidated  financial  statements  were  reclassified  to 
conform to the current year presentation. 

Subsequent Events 
In  preparing  these  consolidated  financial  statements,  the  Corporation  has  evaluated,  for 
potential recognition or disclosure, significant events or transactions that occurred during 
the  period  subsequent  to  December  31,  2013,  the  most  recent  balance  sheet  presented 
herein,  through  March  7,  2014,  the  date  these  consolidated  financial  statements  were

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment 
Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a 
quarterly  basis,  and  more  frequently  when  economic  or  market  conditions  warrant  such  an 
evaluation.  In  evaluating  OTTI,  management  additionally  considers  the  factors  presented  in 
Note 1.  No OTTI was indicated following analysis in 2013 or 2012.   

4.  LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES 

The Bank originates primarily residential and commercial real estate loans, commercial, and 
installment loans.  The Corporation estimates that the majority of their loan portfolio is based 
in  Genesee,  Oakland  and  Livingston  counties  within  southeast  Michigan.    The  ability  of  the 
Corporation's debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general 
economic conditions in these areas. 

Activity  in  the  allowance  for  loan  losses,  by  loan  portfolio  segment,  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2013 is as follows:

Modifications 
A modification of a loan constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when a borrower is 
experiencing  financial  difficulty  and  the  modification  constitutes  a  concession.    The 
Corporation  offers  various  types  of  concessions  when  modifying  a  loan  or  lease,  however, 
forgiveness of principal is rarely granted.  Commercial loans modified in a TDR often involve 
temporary  interest-only  payments,  term  extensions,  and  converting  revolving  credit  lines  to 
term  loans.    Additional  collateral,  a  co-borrower,  or  a  guarantor  is  often  requested.  
Commercial  real  estate  loans  modified  in  a  TDR  often  involve  reducing  the  interest  rate  for 
the  remaining  term  of  the  loan,  extending  the  maturity  date  at  an  interest  rate  lower  than 
the  current  market  rate  for  new  debt  with  similar  risk,  or  substituting  or  adding  a  new 
borrower  or  guarantor.    Residential  real  estate  loans  modified  in  a  TDR  are  primarily 
comprised  of  loans  where  monthly  payments  are  lowered  to  accommodate  the  borrowers’ 
financial  needs  through  a  reduction  of  interest  rate  and/or  extension  of  the  maturity  date. 
Installment  loans  modified  in  a  TDR  are  primarily  comprised  of  loans  where  the  Corporation 
has lowered monthly payments by extending the term.   

Loans  modified  in  a  TDR  are  typically  already  on  non-accrual  status  and  partial  charge-offs 
have  in  some  cases  been  taken  against  the  outstanding  loan  balance.    As  a  result,  loans 
modified in a TDR for the Corporation may have the financial effect of increasing the specific 
allowance associated with the loan. 

The  Corporation  allocated  $893,000  and  $1,690,000  of  specific  reserves  to  customers  whose 
loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.  The 
Corporation does not have material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers with 
loans whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings or whose loans are on 
nonaccrual as of December 31, 2013.

Credit Quality Indicators 
The Corporation categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the 
ability  of  borrowers  to  service  their  debts  such  as:  current  financial  information,  historical 
payment experience; credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, 
among other factors.  The Corporation analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to 
credit  risk.    This  analysis  includes  non-homogeneous  loans,  such  as  commercial  and 
commercial  real  estate  loans.    This  analysis  is  performed  on  a  quarterly  basis.    The 
Corporation uses the following definitions for classified risk ratings: 

Prime.  Loans classified as prime are well seasoned borrowers displaying strong financial 
condition, consistently superior earnings performance, and access to a range of financing 
alternatives.    The  borrower’s  trends  and  outlook,  as  well  as  those  of  its  industry  are 
positive.  

Pass.  Loans classified as pass have a moderate to average risk to established borrowers 
that display sound financial condition and operating results.  The capacity to service debt 
is  stable  and  demonstrated  at  a  level  consistent  with  or  above  the  industry  norms.  
Borrower and industry trends and outlook are considered good. 

Watch.  Loans classified as watch have a potential weakness that deserves management’s 
close  attention.    If  left  uncorrected,  these  potential  weaknesses  may  result  in 
deterioration  of  the  repayment  prospects  for  the  loan  or  of  the  institution’s  credit 
position at some future date. 

Substandard.  Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current 
net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans so 
classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of 
the  debt.    They  are  characterized  by  the  distinct  possibility  that  the  institution  will 
sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified 
as  substandard,  with  the  added  characteristic  that  the  weaknesses  make  collection  or 
liquidation in full, on the basis of currently  existing facts, conditions, and values, highly 
questionable and improbable. The Corporation does not classify loans as doubtful.  Loans 
that approach this status are charged-off. 

Based  on  the  most  recent  analysis  performed,  the  recorded  investment  by  risk  category  of

Subordinated Debentures and Trust Preferred Securities 
A trust formed by the Corporation issued $12,000,000 of trust preferred securities in 2003 as 
part  of  a  pooled  offering  of  such  securities.    The  interest  rate  is  a  floating  rate  (3  month 
LIBOR plus 3.00%) and the current rate at December 31, 2013 is 3.31%.  The Corporation issued 
subordinated  debentures  at  the  same  terms  as  the  trust  preferred  securities  to  the  trust  in 
exchange  for  the  proceeds  of  the  offering;  the  debentures  and  related  debt  issuance  costs 
represent  the  sole  assets  of  the  trust.    The  Corporation  may  redeem  the  subordinated 
debentures,  in  whole  but  not  in  part,  any  time  after  2008  at  a  price  of  100%  of  face  value.  
The subordinated debentures must be redeemed no later than 2033.  

A  trust  formed  by  the  Corporation  issued  $2,000,000  of  trust  preferred  securities  in  2005  as 
part  of  a  pooled  offering  of  such  securities.    The  interest  rate  is  a  floating  rate  (3  month 
LIBOR plus 1.60%) and the current rate at December 31, 2013 is 1.91%.  The Corporation issued

represent  the  sole  assets  of  the  trust.    The  Corporation  may  redeem  the  subordinated 
debentures,  in  whole  but  not  in  part,  any  time  after  2010  at  a  price  of  100%  of  face  value.  
The subordinated debentures must be redeemed no later than 2035. 

The Corporation is not considered the primary beneficiary of these trusts, therefore the trusts 
are  not  consolidated  in  the  Corporations’  financial  statements  but  rather  the  subordinated 
debentures are shown as a liability. 

In the normal course of the interest rate risk management processes, management identified 
a possible risk to its interest rate risk profile that exposed the Corporation to a possible rise in 
funding  costs.    Specifically,  during  management’s  review  of  its  Trust  Preferred  (“Trups”) 
facilities referred to above, it noted that the interest rate currently maintains a floating rate 
based upon LIBOR.  Management determined that the continuation of the Trups facilities at a 
floating  rate  may  adversely  affect  the  Corporation’s  net  interest  margin  in  a  possible  rising 
rate environment, exposing the Corporation to increased interest rate costs.    

In  the  second  quarter  of  2013,  the  Corporation  entered  into  an interest  rate  cap  with  Wells 
Fargo.   An interest-rate cap is an over-the-counter derivative that protects the holder from 
rises  in  interest  rates  by  making  a  payment  to  the  holder  when  an  underlying  interest  rate 
(the "index" interest rate) exceeds a specified strike rate (the "cap rate").  The interest rate 
cap is intended to effectively fix the maximum  interest rate paid on  the Corporation’s trust 
preferred securities.   

The  interest  rate  cap  has  a  notional  amount  of  $12,000,000  and  expires  on  June  15,  2020.  
During the term of the interest rate cap the Corporation will receive quarterly payments from 
Wells Fargo, calculated as the excess (if any) of LIBOR over the strike rate of 2.00%. 

As of December 31, 2013 the interest rate cap is included in other assets at an amortized cost 
of approximately $520,000.  Management estimates that the fair value of the interest rate cap 
as  of  December  31,  2013  approximates  its  amortized  cost.  The  Corporation  assessed  the 
significance of the impact of any credit valuation adjustment (counterparty credit risk) on the 
overall  valuation  of  its  derivative  position,  and  determined  that  the  credit  valuation 
adjustment was not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative.

In assessing whether or not some or all of the deferred tax assets are more likely than not to 
be realized in the future, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, 
including  projected  future  taxable  income,  tax  planning  strategies,  and  recent  financial 
performance.  Based  on  an  evaluation  of  the  then-available  positive  and  negative  evidence, 
management determined it was appropriate to establish a full valuation allowance against its 
deferred  tax  asset  as  of  June  30,  2009.    At  that  time,  and  in  subsequent  periods,  negative 
evidence,  including  a  recent  cumulative  history  of operating  losses,  outweighed  the  positive 
evidence.

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

However,  as  of  December  31,  2013,  management’s  assessment  concluded  that  the  positive 
evidence outweighed the negative evidence and management determined that a full deferred 
tax  asset  valuation  allowance  was  no  longer  necessary.  The  significant  positive  evidence  in 
management’s  analysis  included:  consecutive  quarters  of  profitability,  termination  of  the 
consent  agreement  with  primary  regulators,  improved  capital  levels,  solid  and  improving 
credit  metrics,  strong  deposit  mix,  reduced  regulatory  risk,  and  a  stabilizing  economy.    The 
federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $8,447,000 will expire beginning in 
2030 if not previously utilized. 

A  valuation  allowance  of  $1,149,000  and  $7,092,000  was  determined  to  be  necessary  as 
December 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively.  A partial valuation allowance as of December 31, 
2013  was  maintained  for  tax  assets  associated  with  previously  generated  capital  losses  for 
which management determined it is more likely than not will expire prior to being realized. 

The  deferred  tax  assets  will  continue  to  be  analyzed  at  each  reporting  period  for  changes 
affecting  realizability,  and  the  valuation  allowance  may  be  adjusted  in  future  periods 
accordingly.  The ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets is primarily dependent on 
the  generation  of  future  taxable  income  during  the  periods  in  which  those  temporary 
differences  become  deductible.  Changes  in  existing  tax  laws  could  also  affect  actual  tax 
results and the valuation of deferred tax assets over time. The accounting for deferred taxes 
is  based  on  an  estimate  of  future  results.  Differences  between  anticipated  and  actual 
outcomes  of  these  future  tax  consequences  could  have  an  impact  on  the  Corporation’s 
consolidated statement of income and balance sheet.  

The  Corporation  concluded  that  there  are  no  significant  uncertain  tax  positions  requiring 
recognition  in  the  Corporation’s  consolidated  financial  statements  based  on  the  evaluation 
performed for the years 2010 through 2013, the years which remain subject to examination by 
major  tax  jurisdictions  as  of  December  31,  2013.  The  Corporation  does  not  expect  the  total 
amount  of  unrecognized  tax  benefits  (“UTB”)  (e.g.  tax  deductions,  exclusions,  or  credits 
claimed or expected to be claimed) to significantly change in the next 12 months.  

At December 31, 2012, amounts accrued for uncertain tax positions under examination by the 
IRS were $230,000.  The amount recorded was for tax positions previously taken and was the 
result  of  the  Corporation’s  IRS  examination  covering  the  2009  tax  year.    During  2013  the 
Corporation  was  successful  in  discussions  with  the  IRS,  and  as  such,  these  amounts  are  no 
longer  uncertain.    Therefore,  this  liability  was  reversed  when  this  determination  was  made.  
The Corporation does not expect the total amount of unrecognized or recognized tax benefits 
to significantly change within the next twelve months.  

The  Corporation  and  its  subsidiaries  are  subject  to  U.S.  federal  income  taxes  as  well  as 
income tax of the state of Michigan.  The Corporation is no longer subject to examination by 
taxing authorities for years before 2010.

10.  BENEFIT PLANS 

The Corporation has a noncontributory discretionary employee stock ownership plan covering 
substantially all of its employees.  It is a requirement of the plan to invest principally in the 
Corporation's common stock.  No contributions were made to the plan in 2013 or 2012. 

The  Corporation  has  also  established  a  401(k)  Plan  in  which  100%  of  the  employees' 
contribution can be matched up to 3% of their gross pay and 50% can be matched on the next 
2% of their gross pay with a discretionary contribution by the Corporation. Contributions to the 
plan were $41,000 in 2013 and $0 in 2012. 

The  Corporation  entered  into  Supplemental  Executive  Retirement  Agreements  (“SERP”)  with 
certain  executives.    The  SERP  Agreements  are  designed  to  encourage  executives  to  remain 
long  term  employees  of  the  Corporation,  and  to  provide  specified  benefits  to  certain  key 
executives  who  contribute  materially  to  the  continued  growth,  development,  and  future 
business success of the Corporation.  The retirement benefits are an unsecured obligation of 
the Corporation.  At year end 2013 and 2012, the accumulated liability for these agreements 
totaled $796,000 and $861,000, respectively. The Corporation has also established other Non-
Qualified  Deferred  Compensation  arrangements  for  employees  not  covered  under  the  SERP.  
The arrangements are designed to encourage certain officers to remain long-term employees 
of  the  Corporation  and  the  Bank,  and  to  provide  the  officers  with  supplemental  retirement 
income.    The  Corporation’s  contributions  to  the  plans  in  2013  and  2012  were  $64,000  and 
$172,000, respectively.   

11.  COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AND OPTION PLANS 

Director and Employee Plans 
The  Stock  Purchase  Plan  permits  directors  and  employees  of  the  Corporation  to  purchase 
shares  of  common  stock  made  available  for  purchase  under  the  plan  at  the  average  fair 
market  value  of  the  shares  over  the  most  recent  five  days  prior  to  the  issuance  date.    The 
total number of shares issuable under this plan is limited to 330,000 shares. 

The Retainer Stock Plan allows directors to elect to receive shares of common stock in full or 
partial payment of the director's retainer fees and fees for attending meetings. The number of 
shares is determined by dividing the dollar amount of fees to be paid in shares by the market 
value of the stock on the first business day prior to the payment date. 

The Executive Stock Bonus Plan permits the administrator of the plan to grant shares of the 
Corporation's  common  stock  to  eligible  employees.    Any  executive  or  managerial  level 
employee is eligible to receive grants under the plan.  The Board of Directors administers the 
plan and the numbers of shares issued are at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. No 
shares were granted under this plan during 2013 or 2012. 

Dividend Investment Plan 
The  Automatic  Dividend  Reinvestment  Plan  ("DRIP")  permits  enrolled  shareholders  to 
automatically  use  dividends  paid  on  common  stock  to  purchase  additional  shares  of  the 
Corporation's common stock at the fair market value on the investment date.  Any shareholder 
who  is  the  beneficial  or  record  owner  of  not  more  than  9.9%  of  the  issued  and  outstanding 
shares of the Corporation's common stock is eligible to participate in the plan.

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Pursuant to a separate agreement with a family who collectively holds more than 9.9% of the 
Corporation's  stock  on  or  prior  to  January  31  of  each  year  beginning  January  31,  1997,  the 
Corporation is to advise the family, in a written notice, of the number of shares sold under the 
DRIP.    Each  family  member  will  have  the  option,  until  February  28  of  the  same  year,  to 
purchase  from  the  Corporation  one-third  of  the  total  number  of  shares  that  would  be 
sufficient to prevent the dilution to all family members as a group that result from the DRIP 
shares.  The purchase price under this agreement is the fair market value on December 31 of 
the  year  immediately  preceding  the  year  in  which  the  written  notice  is  given.    Similarly,  a 
reverse  agreement  exists  which  allows  the  Corporation  to  redeem  family  shares  to  maintain 
the family ownership percentage in the event that stock repurchase activity more than offsets 
the shares available because of the DRIP.

Stock Option Plans 
The  Nonemployee  Director  Stock  Option  Plan  provides  for  granting  options  to  nonemployee 
directors to purchase the Corporation's common stock.  The purchase price of the shares is the 
estimated fair value at the date of the grant, and there is a three-year vesting period before 
options  may  be  exercised.    Options  to  acquire  no  more  than  8,131  shares  of  stock  may  be 
granted  under  the  plan  in  any  calendar  year  and  options  to  acquire  not  more  than  73,967 
shares in the aggregate may be outstanding at any one time. No options were granted in 2013 
or 2012.  

The  Employee  Stock  Option  Plan  grants  options  to  eligible  employees  to  purchase  the 
Corporation's common stock at or above, the fair market value of the stock at the date of the 
grant.    Awards  granted  under  this  plan  are  limited  to  an  aggregate  of  86,936  shares.    The 
administrator  of  the  plan  is  a  committee  of  directors.    The  administrator  has  the  power  to 
determine the number of options to be granted, the exercise price of the options and other 
terms  of  the  options,  subject  to  consistency  with  the  terms  of  the  plan.  No  options  were 
granted in 2013 or 2012. 

The  fair  value  of  each  option  award  is  estimated  on  the  date  of  grant  using  a  closed  form 
option  valuation  (Black-Scholes)  model.    Expected  volatilities  are  based  on  historical 
volatilities  of  the  Corporation’s  common  stock.    The  Corporation  uses  historical  data  to 
estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. The expected term of options 
granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are 
expected to be outstanding, which takes into  account that the  options are not transferable.  
The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury 
yield  curve  in  effect  at  the  time  of  the  grant.    Shares  that  are  issued  upon  option  exercise 
come from authorized but unissued shares.

No options were exercised during 2013 or 2012.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there was 
no  unrecognized  compensation  cost  related  to  non-vested  stock  options  granted  under  the 
Plan.   

The  Corporation  has  issued  a  total  of  35,000  stock  appreciation  rights  (“SARs”)  to  the 
executive management team, using a price of $2.00 per share.  The terms of the SARs provide 
that any appreciation in stock price will be paid in cash on two fixed dates which were subject 
to certain performance conditions, which management has determined have been met during 
2013.  SAR payment dates vary by individual agreement and range from February 2014 through 
May 2017. Initial measurement of the SAR’s resulted in recording expense of $120,000 for the 
year ended December 31, 2013, which is reflective of vesting through December 31, 2013 and 
is  recorded  in  accrued  interest  payable  and  other  liabilities  on  the  consolidated  balance 
sheet. Approximately $184,000 of additional estimated liability has yet to be reflected in the 
consolidated financial statements as vesting conditions have not yet been met.  The liability 
will continue to be re-measured each reporting period with changes recorded on a prospective 
ratable basis in salaries and employee benefits expense as further vesting transpires over the 
remaining SAR terms. The SAR’s vest immediately upon a change in ownership control.

12.  FAIR VALUE 

Fair  value  is  the  exchange  price  that  would  be  received  for  an  asset  or  paid  to  transfer  a 
liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in 
an  orderly  transaction  between  market  participants  on  the  measurement  date.    There  are 
three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values. 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that 
the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. 

Level  2:  Significant  other  observable  inputs  other  than  Level  1  prices  such  as  quoted 
prices  for  similar  assets  or  liabilities;  quoted  prices  in  markets  that  are  not  active;  or 
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.  

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions 
about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. 

Securities Available for Sale 
The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on 
nationally  recognized  securities  exchanges  (Level  1  inputs)  or  matrix  pricing,  which  is  a 
mathematical  technique  widely  used  in  the  industry  to  value  debt  securities  without  relying 
exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ 
relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).  The remaining fair values 
of  securities  (Level  3  inputs)  are  based  on  the  reporting  entity’s  own  assumptions  and  basic 
knowledge  of  market  conditions  and  individual  investment  performance.    The  Corporation 
reviews the performance of the securities that comprise level 3 on a quarterly basis. 

Impaired Loans  
The  fair  value  of  impaired  loans  with  specific  allocations  of  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  is 
generally  based  on  recent  real  estate  appraisals.    These  appraisals  may  utilize  a  single 
valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income 
approach.    Adjustments  are  routinely  made  in  the  appraisal  process  by  the  appraisers  to 
adjust  for  differences  between  the  comparable  sales  and  income  data  available.    Such 
adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs 
for determining fair value. 

Other Real Estate Owned 
Non-recurring  adjustments  to  certain  commercial  and  residential  real  estate  properties 
classified  as  other  real  estate  owned  are  measured  at  the  lower  of  carrying  amount  or  fair 
value,  less  costs  to  sell.    Fair  values  are  generally  based  on  third  party  appraisals  of  the 
property. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust 
for  differences  between  the  comparable  sales  and  income  data  available,  which  results  in  a 
Level 3 classification.  In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to 
sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

The following represent impairment charges recognized during the year:  

Impaired loans that are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral had a 
carrying amount of $4,124,000, with a valuation allowance of $774,000 at December 31, 2013. 
Impaired loans that are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral had a 
carrying amount of $3,101,000, with a valuation allowance of $870,000 at December 31, 2012. 

Other  real  estate  owned  which  is  measured  at  the  lower  of  carrying  value  or  fair  value  less 
costs to sell, had a net carrying amount of $2,594,000, of which $535,000 was at fair value at 
December  31,  2013,  which  resulted  from  write-downs  totaling  $117,000.  Other  real  estate 
owned which is measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, had a 
net carrying amount of $2,579,000, of which $229,000 was at fair value at December 31, 2012,

The  following  methods  and  assumptions  were  used  by  the  Corporation  in  estimating  its  fair 
value disclosures for financial instruments: 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 
The  carrying  amounts  reported  in  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  for  cash  and  short-term 
instruments approximate their fair values. 

Securities Held to Maturity 
Fair  values  for  securities  held  to  maturity  are  based  on  similar  information  previously 
presented for securities available for sale.   

Loans Held for Sale 
The fair values of these loans are determined in the aggregate on the basis of existing forward 
commitments or fair values attributable to similar loans.

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

FHLB Stock 
It was not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its 
transferability. 

Loans 
For variable rate loans that re-price frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, 
fair  values  are  based  on  carrying  values.    The  fair  value  of  other  loans  is  estimated  using 
discounted cash flow analysis.   

Accrued Interest 
The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value. 

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments 
The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered material. 

Deposits 
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition equal to the amount payable 
on demand at the reporting date.  The carrying amounts for variable rate, fixed term money 
market  accounts  and  certificates  of  deposit  approximate  their  fair  values  at  the  reporting 
date.  Fair values for fixed certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow 
calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on similar certificates.   

FHLB Advances 
Rates currently available for FHLB advances with similar terms and remaining maturities are 
used to estimate the fair value of the existing obligations. 

Subordinated Debentures 
The estimated fair value of the existing subordinated debentures is calculated by comparing a 
current market rate for the instrument compared to the book rate.  The difference between 
these rates computes the fair value. 

Limitations 
Fair  value  estimates  are  made  at  a  specific  point  in  time,  based  on  relevant  market 
information and  information about  the  financial  instrument.   These  estimates  do  not  reflect 
any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation's 
entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.  Because no market exists for a significant 
portion  of  the  Corporation's  financial  instruments,  fair  value  estimates  are  based  on 
management's  judgments  regarding  future  expected  loss  experience,  current  economic 
conditions,  risk  characteristics  and  other  factors.    These  estimates  are  subjective  in  nature 
and  involve  uncertainties  and  matters  of  significant  judgment  and  therefore  cannot  be 
determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. 

13.  REGULATORY MATTERS 

The  Corporation  (on  a  consolidated  basis)  and  its  Bank  subsidiary  are  subject  to  various 
regulatory  capital  requirements  administered  by  the  federal  banking  agencies.    Failure  to 
meet  minimum  capital  requirements  can  initiate  certain  mandatory  -  and  possibly 
discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect 
on  the  Corporation.  Under  capital  adequacy  guidelines  and  the  regulatory  framework  for

  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

prompt corrective action, the Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines 
that  involve  quantitative  measures  of  assets,  liabilities,  and  certain  off-balance-sheet  items 
that  are  calculated  under  regulatory  accounting  practices.    The  capital  amounts  and 
classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, 
risk weightings, and other factors.  Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to 
bank holding companies. 

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank 
to  maintain  minimum  amounts  and  ratios  (set  forth  in  the  table  below)  of  total  and  Tier  1 
capital  (as  defined  in  the  regulations)  to  risk-weighted  assets  (as  defined),  and  of  Tier  1 
capital  (as  defined)  to  average  assets  (as  defined).  As  of  December  31,  2013  and  2012,  the 
most recent notifications from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank 
as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  Management 
believes, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, that the Corporation and the Bank met all capital 
adequacy requirements to which they are subject. 

In January 2010, The State Bank entered into a Consent Order with federal and state banking 
regulators that contained provisions to foster improvement in The State Bank’s earnings, lower 
nonperforming  loan  levels,  increase  capital,  and  require  revisions  to  various  policies.  This 
order was lifted in March 2013 and was replaced with an informal action requiring continuation 
of certain reporting as well as continued maintenance of an 8.0% leverage capital ratio. 

Effective in November 2010, the Corporation received a notice from the Federal Reserve which 
defined restrictions being placed upon the holding company.  This order was lifted in August 
2013  and  was  replaced  with  an  informal  action  requiring  permission  be  requested  before 
paying  or  declaring  a  dividend,  incurring  debt,  or  purchasing  or  redeeming  shares  of  the 
Corporation’s  common  stock  and  restriction  of  dividend  payments  without  prior  regulatory 
approval.  

The Corporation’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from 
the Bank.  Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior 
approval of regulatory agencies.   

The tables below illustrate the regulatory capital amounts and ratios as of December 31:

14.  LOAN COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES 

Off-balance-Sheet Risk 
Some  financial  instruments,  such  as  loan  commitments,  credit  lines,  letters  of  credit,  and 
overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs.  These are agreements to 
provide  credit  or  to  support  the  credit  of  others,  as  long  as  conditions  established  in  the 
contract are met, and usually have expiration dates.  Commitments may expire without being 
used.  Off-balance-sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, 
although material losses are not anticipated.  The same credit policies are used to make such 
commitments  as  are  used  for  loans,  including  obtaining  collateral  at  exercise  of  the 
commitment. 

The contractual amount of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk was as follows at 
year-end:

Commitments  to  make  loans  are  generally  made  for  periods  of  90  days  or  less.    At 
December 31,  2013,  loan commitments  and  unused  lines  of  credit  had  interest  rates  ranging 
from 2.99% to 6.00% and maturities ranging from 1 month to 30 years.

15.  CONTINGENCIES 

Litigation 
The  Corporation  is  party  to  litigation  arising  during  the  normal  course  of  business.    In  the 
opinion  of  management,  based  on  consultation  with  legal  counsel,  the  resolution  of  such 
litigation is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. 

Environmental Issues 
As a result of acquiring real estate from foreclosure proceedings, the Corporation is subject to 
potential  claims  and  possible  legal  proceedings  involving  environmental  matters.    No  such 
claims have been asserted as of December 31, 2013.
