Great Heights
Earnings per share up 104%. Total assets surpassed $1 billion,
increasing more than 30%. Total shareholder return, over 70%,
placed us first among all public companies in Indiana and second
among all banks in America.
We achieved great heights in 2015.
We did it by identifying a need and imagining a solution. We
did it by building a bridge between the essential banking services
people and businesses need and the conveniences and economies
made possible by world-changing technology. We did it by
sticking with our vision of what a bank could be—and should
be—in the digital age.

Dear Fellow Shareholder,
What a year it was! Our 2015 earnings per share were up 104% over the prior year. First Internet
Bancorp provided more than a 70% total shareholder return—placing our company first among
Indiana-based public companies and second among banks across the country. In one year, we added
$54 million in market capitalization, a 73% increase.
The formula for our success is simple: We are executing our growth strategy. Assets at First Internet
Bancorp crossed the billion-dollar threshold in 2015 and were up more than 30% from 2014. Our
growth—and sustained growth, at that—significantly outpaces banks of similar
size. Over the past five years, we have grown our loan balances by 211%, while
comparable banks averaged 30% growth.
Through this growth, we have achieved economies of scale that are critical to our
continued financial success. Net income for the year was up 106% on revenues
that were up 39% over 2014. Our tangible book value is up, and our improving
efficiency ratio continues to reflect the impact of this growth.
Importantly, though, we have achieved these results without sacrificing service.
Concepts like “efficiency” and “economies of scale,” so critical to investors,
are often at odds with customer expectations. We recognize that we have been
and will continue to be successful because we are passionate about helping our
customers succeed. We don’t view the business of banking as a commodity.
Our business was born in 1999 after we identified a need. Put simply, we asked
consumers what they wanted from a bank. As we have grown, we have kept an
open dialogue with our customers and have maintained the discipline of aligning
our product and service offerings with customer needs. While many banks layer
online services atop a traditional branch network, First Internet Bank was built
from the start to serve customers in the digital economy, and we continue to
delight them with customer-centric digital banking solutions. Take, for instance,
the mobile phone: Millennials look at their phones more than 40 times a day. Even those of us who
are slightly (ahem) more advanced in age seldom go long without sneaking a peek at our mobile
devices. In 2015, we introduced two forms of biometric authentication—Touch ID and Eyeprint
ID—to our mobile app to make it as easy for our customers to access their accounts as it is to touch
a button or take a selfie.
Today, consumers prefer online and mobile banking two-to-one over branch banking. (This helps to
explain why more than 5,000 bank branches have closed across the country over the past five years.)
According to Accenture, almost 40% of consumers ages 18-34, the “digital natives,” would consider

a bank with no branches. Our business model uniquely positions us to build relationships, with a
combination of product, service, value, and a story that consumers find compelling.
Using technology to modernize the delivery channel of an industry deeply rooted in tradition,
we have also given convenience and control back to the businesses we serve. Our loan portfolio,
once made up almost entirely of consumer loans, is now more diversified—with 61% of our loan
portfolio composed of commercial loans.
An evolution of that scale requires dedication and focus. Across our organization, we have talented
people on a mission to establish and strengthen customer connections. The leaders of our lending
teams and members of their staff are highly seasoned, career bankers who bring deep industry
knowledge and relationships from regional, super-regional, or money center banks.
To attract the kind of talent we need to execute our strategy, we have made a concerted effort to
be an employer of choice. Just as we listen to our customers, we listen to our employees. We have
expanded employee opportunities for education, professional enrichment, philanthropy, and fun
competition. As a result, First Internet Bank has received two consecutive Top Workplaces honors
from The Indianapolis Star and three consecutive Best Banks to Work For titles from American
Banker. Anonymous, voluntary employee surveys are the basis for these awards. Employees noted
First Internet Bank is a “unique banking organization with [an] experienced management team not
afraid to try new things,” and that the company “rewards hard work. The environment is great.”
We genuinely like what we do—and it shows: in the relationships we build with our customers, in
the capabilities we continue to expand and enhance, and in the returns we have been able to provide
on investments in First Internet Bancorp. On behalf of everyone at First Internet and the Board of
Directors, thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
D AV I D B . B E C K E R
Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

For David Couch, there have never
been enough hours in the day.
As president and CEO of Artifex
Finishing—a professional finishing
service for wood, metal, plastic,
and other material surfaces based
in Dayton, Ohio—he often gets up
before dawn and works well past
normal business hours.
Which doesn’t leave much time to get
to the bank. That’s why David turned
to First Internet Bank to handle his
personal banking needs more than 15
years ago.
He may have discovered First Internet
Bank “on a whim” while browsing the
web back in 2000, but his decision to
choose us was anything but whimsical.
He did the research—learning
more about our security protocols,
encryption methods, services, and
rates—and decided it was worth a shot.
He’s glad he did. We earn our
customers’ trust with every transaction
and interaction. Now, we don’t just
handle his personal banking needs—
we handle all the banking needs of
Artifex Finishing, too.
“I’ve been with lots of different banks
over the years—too many to name.
Over time I’ve dropped them. All my
business goes through First Internet
Bank,” said David. “The length of our
relationship speaks volumes. I get
top-notch customer service, and
combined with the value they give me,
that goes a long way.”
Today, David’s business is booming.
And the days still aren’t long enough.
“Everyone who knows me knows I’m
a busy guy, and that time is my most
precious resource. First Internet Bank’s
competitive rates and customer service
are great—but it’s the extra time they
give me that I love most.”

The economic downturn bulldozed the
residential construction business, and
new home sales were slow to pick up
after the general economy recovered.
Even Arbor Homes, among the largest
and most respected home builders
based in Indianapolis, had trouble
getting a foot in the door with many
commercial real estate lenders. But
First Internet Bank saw potential in
developing a relationship.
“We were one of the few home
builders that made it through the
crash, and First Internet Bank was
one of the few banks that still had
interest in working with us,” said
Curtis Rector, founder and CEO of
Arbor Homes. “They’ve been a perfect
match for us because they have lots
of experience with our industry and
a unique understanding of how our
business works.”
The relationship between First Internet
Bank and Arbor Homes started small.
As our relationship grew, we found
an opportunity to customize loan
structures in order to help streamline
Arbor Homes’ loan process, making it
faster and more cost effective.
“Whereas most banks structure
separate loans for each individual
community financed, First Internet
Bank aggregated our loans so we have
just one note and a single structure
for most of our developments,” says
Curtis. “Innovative ideas like this go a
long way toward helping our business
succeed, which is just one reason I
recommend First Internet Bank to
other people all the time.”
Planning, perseverance, and a quality
product are the foundation for success
at Arbor Homes—and we have a
banking partnership built to last.

Say you’re looking for a bike. You
know exactly what you want: a
mountain bike with an XT-9 parts set,
F20 clipless pedals, and a carbon fiber
frame.
Randy Clark, founder and president of
Bicycle Garage Indy, knows that people
make the difference between a good
business and a great one. And that’s
especially true for a bank.
so that funds can be transferred
instantly. And because First Internet
Bank has no branches, it’s easy to keep
Bicycle Garage Indy’s fees low without
sacrificing convenience.
If you live in the Indianapolis area, you
know the people to see. With three
Central Indiana locations, Bicycle
Garage Indy is Indianapolis’ go-to bike
and fitness retailer. They’ve been in
business for more than 30 years—and
they’ve built their business on the
strength of their personable, expert
staff and the outstanding service they
provide.
“Our partnership with First
Internet Bank is founded on strong
relationships with the people who work
there,” said Randy. “They’re responsive,
competent, can-do people—and they
do a great job of taking care of us.”
Easy access to checking and savings
accounts are critical to any retail
business. We set up Bicycle Garage
Indy with an efficient check scanner
But in the end, it’s still all about the
people.
“They use lots of cool technology to
help us,” said Randy. “But what you
really want out of a bank is fairness,
competence, communication. They’ve
earned our loyalty. Their people make
them the best.”

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This annual report on Form 10-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities
laws. These statements are not historical facts, rather statements based on the current expectations of First Internet Bancorp and
its consolidated subsidiaries (“we,” “our,” “us”) regarding its business strategies, intended results and future performance. Forward-
looking statements are generally preceded by terms such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plan” and similar
expressions. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including: general economic conditions, whether national
or regional, and conditions in the lending markets in which we participate that may have an adverse effect on the demand for our
loans and other products, our credit quality and related levels of nonperforming assets and loan losses, and the value and salability
of the real estate that we own or that is the collateral for our loans; failures of or interruptions in the communication and information
systems on which we rely to conduct our business that could reduce our revenues, increase our costs or lead to disruptions in our
business; our plans to grow our commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loan portfolios which may carry greater
risks of non-payment or other unfavorable consequences; our dependence on capital distributions from First Internet Bank of
Indiana (the “Bank”); results of examinations of us by our regulators, including the possibility that our regulators may, among
other things, require us to increase our allowance for loan losses or to write-down assets; changing bank regulatory conditions,
policies or programs, whether arising as new legislation or regulatory initiatives, that could lead to restrictions on activities of
banks generally, or the Bank in particular, more restrictive regulatory capital requirements, increased costs, including deposit
insurance premiums, regulation or prohibition of certain income producing activities or changes in the secondary market for loans
and other products; changes in market rates and prices that may adversely impact the value of securities, loans, deposits and other
financial instruments and the interest rate sensitivity of our balance sheet; our liquidity requirements could be adversely affected
by changes in our assets and liabilities; the effect of legislative or regulatory developments, including changes in laws concerning
taxes, banking, securities, insurance and other aspects of the financial services industry; competitive factors among financial
services organizations, including product and pricing pressures and our ability to attract, develop and retain qualified banking
professionals; the growth and profitability of noninterest or fee income being less than expected; the loss of any key members of
senior management; the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and
other regulatory agencies; and the effect of fiscal and governmental policies of the United States federal government. Additional
factors that may affect our results include those discussed in this report under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other reports filed
with the SEC. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the
date made. The factors listed above could affect our financial performance and could cause our actual results for future periods
to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements.
Except as required by law, we do not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result
of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such
statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

General
PART I
First Internet Bancorp is a bank holding company that conducts its business activities through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
First Internet Bank of Indiana, an Indiana chartered bank. First Internet Bank of Indiana was the first state-chartered, Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured Internet bank and commenced banking operations in 1999. First Internet Bancorp
was incorporated under the laws of the State of Indiana on September 15, 2005. On March 21, 2006, we consummated a plan of
exchange by which we acquired all of the outstanding shares of the Bank.
When we refer to “First Internet Bancorp,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” in the remainder of this annual report
on Form 10-K, we mean First Internet Bancorp and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. References
to “First Internet Bank” or the “Bank” refer to First Internet Bank of Indiana, an Indiana chartered bank and wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company. The Bank has one wholly owned subsidiary, JKH Realty Services, LLC, which was established on August 20,
2012 as a single member LLC to manage other real estate owned properties as needed.
We offer a full complement of products and services on a nationwide basis. We conduct our deposit operations primarily
over the Internet and have no traditional branch offices. We have diversified our operations by adding commercial real estate
(“CRE”) lending, including nationwide single tenant lease financing and commercial and industrial (“C&I”) lending, including
business banking/treasury management services to meet the needs of high-quality commercial borrowers and depositors. We have
no significant customer concentrations within our loan portfolio.
As of December 31, 2015, we had total assets of $1.3 billion, total liabilities of $1.2 billion, and shareholders’ equity of
$104.3 million. We employed 152 full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2015.
Our principal executive offices are located at 11201 USA Parkway, Fishers, Indiana 46037 and our telephone number is
(317) 532-7900.
Business Strategies
Our business model is significantly different from that of a typical community bank. We do not have a conventional brick
and mortar branch system, but instead operate through our scalable Internet banking platform. The market area for our residential
real estate lending, consumer lending, and deposit gathering activities is the entire United States. We also offer single tenant lease
financing on a nationwide basis. Our other commercial banking activities, including CRE and C&I loans, corporate credit cards,
and corporate treasury management services, are offered by our commercial banking team to businesses primarily within Central
Indiana, Phoenix, Arizona and adjacent markets.
Performance
Growth. Total assets have increased 116.9% from $585.4 million at December 31, 2011 to $1.3 billion at December 31,
2015. This increase was driven primarily by strong organic growth. During the same time period, loans receivable increased from
$335.2 million to $953.9 million and deposits increased from $486.7 million to $956.1 million, increases of 184.5% and 96.5%,
respectively. Our sustained growth profile is the result of our flexible and highly scalable Internet banking platform that allows
us to target a broad reach of customers across all 50 states. Additionally, key strategic commercial banking hires have enabled us
to further expand our product offerings on both a local and national basis. At December 31, 2015, commercial loans comprised
61.1% of loans receivable compared to 16.1% at December 31, 2011.
Earnings Trend. Net income has increased 180.3% from $3.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011
to $8.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015. Diluted earnings per share have increased 76.6% from $1.11 for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 to $1.96 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015.
Asset Quality. We have maintained a high quality loan portfolio due to our emphasis on a strong credit culture, conservative
underwriting standards, and a diverse national and local customer base. At December 31, 2015, our nonperforming assets to total
assets was 0.37%, our nonperforming loans to total loans receivable was 0.02% and our allowance for loan losses to total loans
receivable was 0.88%.

Strategic Focus
We operate on a national basis through our scalable Internet banking platform to gather deposits and offer residential
mortgage and consumer lending products rather than relying on a conventional brick and mortar branch system. We also primarily
conduct commercial banking and related activities on a local basis, except for single tenant lease financing which is offered
nationwide. Our overriding strategic focus is enhancing franchise and shareholder value while maintaining strong risk management
policies and procedures. We believe the continued creation of franchise and shareholder value will be driven by profitable growth
in consumer and commercial banking, effective underwriting, strong asset quality and efficient technology-driven operations.
National Focus on Deposit and Consumer Banking Growth. Our first product offerings were basic deposit accounts,
certificates of deposit, electronic bill pay and credit cards. Within 90 days of opening, we had accounts with consumers in all
50 states. Over the years, we added consumer loans, lines of credit, home equity loans and single-family mortgages. Our footprint
for deposit gathering and these consumer lending activities is the entire nation. With the use of our Internet-based technology
platform, we do not face geographic boundaries that traditional banks must overcome for customer acquisition. Armed with smart
phones, tablets and computers, our customers can access our online banking system, bill pay, and remote deposit capture 24 hours
a day, seven days a week, on a real-time basis. In addition, we have dedicated banking specialists who can service customer needs
via telephone, email or online chat. We intend to continue to expand our deposit base by leveraging technology and through cross-
selling capabilities as well as targeted marketing efforts.
Commercial Banking Growth. We have continued to diversify our operations by adding commercial banking to
complement our consumer platform. We offer traditional CRE loans, single tenant lease financing, C&I loans, corporate credit
cards and treasury management services. Our commercial lending teams consist of seasoned commercial bankers, most of whom
have had extensive careers with larger money center, super-regional or regional banks. These lenders leverage deep market
knowledge and experience to serve commercial borrowers with a relationship-based approach. We are continuing to develop new
products and services for this market which is expected to produce additional revenue. We also intend to grow and expand our
commercial banking platform by hiring additional seasoned loan officers and relationship managers with specialized market or
product expertise.
Experience. Our management team and our Board of Directors are integral to our success. Our management team and
Board of Directors are led by David B. Becker, the founder of First Internet Bank of Indiana. Mr. Becker is a seasoned business
executive and entrepreneur with over three decades of management experience in the financial services and financial technology
space, and has served as Chief Executive Officer since 2005. Mr. Becker has been the recipient of numerous business awards,
including Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year in 2001, and was inducted into the Central Indiana Business Hall of Fame in
2008. The senior management team consists of individuals with backgrounds in both regional and community banking and financial
technology services. The senior management team is complemented by a dedicated Board of Directors with a wide range of
experience from careers in financial services, legal and regulatory services, and industrial services.
Profitability. We intend to continue to leverage our technology, our long-term customer relationships and our noninterest
income sources to drive profitability. As we continue to grow, we believe that our model will produce a greater level of efficiency
than more traditional community banks, with the goal of higher returns on assets and shareholders’ equity.
Maintain Asset Quality, Diversified Loan Portfolio and Effective Underwriting. We place an emphasis on our strong
credit culture and strict underwriting standards of diverse loan products to maintain our excellent credit quality. As of December 31,
2015, the composition of our loan portfolio was 38.4% consumer loans, 61.1% commercial loans and 0.5% net deferred loan
origination costs and premiums and discounts on purchased loans. As of December 31, 2011, the composition of our loan portfolio
was 82.9% consumer loans, 16.1% commercial loans and 1.0% net deferred loan origination costs and premiums and discounts
on purchased loans.
Efficiency Through Technology. To date, we have pursued growth in a prudent and disciplined fashion. We will continue
to monitor our efficiency ratio and intend to invest in and utilize technology to compete more effectively as we grow in the future.
Through our online account access services, augmented by our team of dedicated banking specialists, we can satisfy the needs of
our retail and commercial customers in an efficient manner. Our data processing systems run on a “real-time” basis, unlike many
banks that run a “batch system,” so customers benefit from an up-to-the-minute picture of their financial position, particularly our
commercial customers who complete numerous transactions in a single day. We believe we have built a scalable banking
infrastructure based upon technology, rather than a traditional branch network, and that our Internet banking processes are capable
of supporting continued growth while improving operational efficiencies.
Expand Market Share Through Disciplined Acquisition Strategy. We may expand through acquisitions on an opportunistic
basis, primarily as a means of securing additional asset generation capabilities and product or geographic expertise.
2
Lending Activities
We earn interest income on loans as well as fee income from the origination of loans. Lending activities include loans
to individuals, which primarily consist of residential real estate loans, home equity loans and lines of credit, and consumer loans,
and loans to commercial clients, which include commercial loans, commercial real estate loans, lines of credit, letters of credit,
and single tenant lease financing. Residential real estate loans are either kept in our loan portfolio or sold to secondary investors,
with gains or losses from the sales being recognized within noninterest income. Refer to Note 4 of the financial statements for
further discussion of each loan portfolio segment.
Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds
We obtain deposits through the ACH network (direct deposit as well as customer-directed transfers of funds from outside
financial institutions), remote and mobile deposit capture, mailed checks, wire transfers and a deposit-taking ATM network.
Additionally, we had approximately $12.8 million in brokered time deposits at December 31, 2015 that were originated in prior
years.
The Bank does not own or operate any ATMs. Through network participation, the Bank’s customers are able to use nearly
any ATM worldwide to withdraw cash. The Bank currently rebates up to $10.00 per customer per month for surcharges our
customers incur when using an ATM owned by another institution. Management believes this program is more cost effective for
the Bank, and more convenient for customers, than it would be to build and maintain a proprietary nationwide ATM network for
our customers.
By providing robust online capabilities, quality customer service and competitive pricing for the products and services
offered, we have been able to develop relationships with our customers and build brand loyalty. As a result, we are not dependent
upon costly account acquisition campaigns to attract new customers on a continual basis.
Market Areas
The market area for our residential real estate lending, consumer lending and deposit gathering activities is the entire
United States. We also offer single tenant lease financing on a nationwide basis. Our other commercial banking activities, including
CRE and C&I loans, corporate credit cards, and corporate treasury management services, are offered by our commercial banking
team to businesses primarily within Central Indiana, Phoenix, Arizona, and adjacent markets.
Competition
The markets in which we compete to make loans and attract deposits are highly competitive.
For retail banking activities, we compete with other banks that use the Internet as a primary service channel, including
Ally Bank, EverBank and Bank of Internet. However, we also compete with other banks, savings banks, credit unions, investment
banks, insurance companies, securities brokerages and other financial institutions, as nearly all have some form of Internet delivery
for their services. For residential mortgage lending, competitors that use the Internet as a primary service channel include Quicken
Loans and Loan Depot. However, we also compete with the major banks in residential mortgage lending, including Bank of
America, Chase and Wells Fargo.
For our traditional commercial lending activities, we compete with larger financial institutions operating in the Midwest
and Central Indiana regions, including Key Bank, PNC Bank, Chase, BMO Harris, Huntington National Bank and First Financial
Bank. In the Southwest, competitors include Wells Fargo, Chase, Bank of America, U.S. Bank, Bank of Arizona and CoBiz Bank.
For our single tenant lease financing activities, we compete nationally with regional banks, local banks and credit unions, as well
as life insurance companies and commercial mortgage-backed securities lenders. Examples of these competitors include Wells
Fargo, Everbank and StanCorp. These competitors may have significantly greater financial resources and higher lending limits
than we do, and may also offer specialized products and services that we do not.
In the United States, banking has experienced widespread consolidation over the last decade leading to the emergence
of several large nationwide banking institutions. These competitors have significantly greater financial resources and offer many
branch locations as well as a variety of services we do not. We have attempted to offset some of the advantages of the larger
competitors by leveraging technology to deliver product solutions and better compete in targeted segments. We have positioned
ourselves as an alternative to these institutions for consumers who do not wish to subsidize the cost of large branch networks
through high fees and unfavorable rates.
3
We anticipate that consolidation will continue in the financial services industry and perhaps accelerate as a result of
ongoing financial stress, intensified competition for the same customer segments and significantly increased regulatory burdens
and rules that are expected to increase expenses and put pressure on earnings.
Regulation and Supervision
General
Because the Company is a public company, it is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”). Under these regulations, the Company is considered to be an accelerated filer and, as such, must comply with SEC
reporting requirements applicable to accelerated filers.
The Company and the Bank are extensively regulated under federal and state law. The Company is a registered bank
holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the “BHCA”) and, as such, is subject to regulation, supervision
and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). The Company is required to
file reports with the Federal Reserve on a quarterly basis.
The Bank is an Indiana-chartered bank formed pursuant to the Indiana Financial Institutions Act (the “IFIA”). As such,
the Bank is regularly examined by and subject to regulations promulgated by the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions (the
“DFI”) and the FDIC as its primary federal bank regulator. The Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System.
The regulatory environment affecting the Company has been and continues to be altered by the enactment of new statutes
and the adoption of new regulations as well as by revisions to, and evolving interpretations of, existing regulations. State and
federal banking agencies have significant discretion in the conduct of their supervisory and enforcement activities and their
examination policies. Any change in such practices and policies could have a material impact on the Company’s operations and
shareholders.
The following discussion is intended to be a summary of the material statutes, regulations and regulatory directives that
are currently applicable to us. It does not purport to be comprehensive or complete and it is expressly subject to and modified by
reference to the text of the applicable statutes, regulations and directives.
The Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) comprehensively reformed
the regulation of financial institutions and the products and services they offer. Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act noted
in this section are also discussed in other sections. Furthermore, many of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act require further
study or rulemaking by federal agencies, a process which will take years to implement fully.
Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act provides for new capital standards that eliminate or restrict the treatment of
trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital based on the asset size of an institution. The Company has never issued any trust preferred
securities. The Dodd-Frank Act permanently raised deposit insurance levels to $250,000, retroactive to January 1, 2008, and
provided unlimited deposit insurance coverage for noninterest-bearing transaction accounts through December 31, 2012. Pursuant
to modifications under the Dodd-Frank Act, deposit insurance assessments are now being calculated based on an insured depository
institution’s assets rather than its insured deposits, and the minimum reserve ratio of the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund (the
“DIF”) has been raised to 1.35%. The payment of interest on business demand deposit accounts is permitted by the Dodd-Frank
Act. The Dodd-Frank Act authorized the Federal Reserve to regulate interchange fees for debit card transactions and established
new minimum mortgage underwriting standards for residential mortgages. Further, the Dodd-Frank Act barred certain banking
organizations from engaging in proprietary trading and from sponsoring and investing in hedge funds and private equity funds,
except as permitted under certain limited circumstances. The Dodd-Frank Act empowered the newly established Financial Stability
Oversight Council to designate certain activities as posing a risk to the U.S. financial system and to recommend new or heightened
standards and safeguards for financial organizations engaging in such activities.
4
The Dodd-Frank Act also established the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) as an independent agency
within the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The CFPB has the exclusive authority to administer, enforce, and
otherwise implement federal consumer financial laws, which includes the power to make rules, issue orders, and issue guidance
governing the provision of consumer financial products and services. The CFPB has exclusive federal consumer law supervisory
authority and primary enforcement authority over insured depository institutions with assets totaling over $10 billion. Authority
for institutions with $10 billion or less rests with the prudential regulator, and in the case of the Bank will be enforced by the FDIC.
The CFPB was also required to establish four offices: 1) Office of Fair Lending and Equal Opportunity, 2) Office of Financial
Education, 3) Office of Service Member Affairs, and 4) Office of Financial Protection for Older Americans. Additionally, the
Bureau was required to establish a Consumer Advisory Board to advise and consult with the Bureau in the exercise of its functions.
Further, the Dodd-Frank Act established the Office of Financial Research, which has the power to require reports from other
financial services companies.
On December 10, 2013, five federal agencies published the final “Volcker Rule” pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act. Among
other things, the Volcker Rule imposes significant limitations on certain activities by covered banks and bank holding companies,
including restrictions on holding certain types of securities, proprietary trading and private equity investing. Most of the limitations
imposed by the Volcker Rule are not likely to impact smaller banks which do not engage in proprietary trading or private equity
activities. However, the restrictions on investing in hedge funds and similar entities could impact the ability to invest in collateralized
debt obligations and other investments that many smaller banks hold. On January 14, 2014, through publication of an Interim
Final Rule, the federal banking agencies clarified that investments by banks in certain trust preferred collateralized debt obligations
are not prohibited by the Volcker Rule. The Volcker Rule did not have any material implications on the Bank or our investments
or activities.
On October 3, 2015, the CFPB’s final rules on integrated mortgage disclosures under the Truth in Lending Act and the
Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act became effective. The new disclosures are intended to improve disclosures to consumers
and also contain tolerance limitations that may cause lenders to refund fees charged to consumers when certain costs vary between
the initial and final disclosure.
Holding Company Regulation
We are subject to supervision and examination as a bank holding company by the Federal Reserve under the BHCA. In
addition, the Federal Reserve has the authority to issue orders to bank holding companies to cease and desist from unsafe or
unsound banking practices and from violations of conditions imposed by, or violations of agreements with, the Federal Reserve.
The Federal Reserve is also empowered, among other things, to assess civil money penalties against companies or individuals
who violate Federal Reserve orders or regulations, to order termination of nonbanking activities of bank holding companies and
to order termination of ownership and control of a nonbanking subsidiary by a bank holding company. Federal Reserve approval
is also required in connection with bank holding companies’ acquisitions of more than 5% of the voting shares of any class of a
depository institution or its holding company and, among other things, in connection with the bank holding company’s engaging
in new activities.
Under the BHCA, our activities are limited to businesses so closely related to banking, managing or controlling banks
as to be a proper incident thereto. The BHCA also requires a bank holding company to obtain approval from the Federal Reserve
before (1) acquiring or holding more than a 5% voting interest in any bank or bank holding company, (2) acquiring all or substantially
all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company or (3) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.
We have not filed an election with the Federal Reserve to be treated as a “financial holding company,” a type of holding
company that can engage in certain insurance and securities-related activities that are not permitted for a bank holding company.
Source of Strength. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, we are required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength
for the Bank in the event of the financial distress of the Bank. This provision codifies the longstanding policy of the Federal
Reserve. Although the Dodd-Frank Act requires the federal banking agencies to issue regulations to implement the source of
strength provisions, no regulations have been promulgated at this time. In addition, any capital loans by a bank holding company
to any of its depository subsidiaries are subordinate to the payment of deposits and to certain other indebtedness. In the event of
a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to
maintain the capital of a depository subsidiary will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment.
5
Regulatory Capital. The Federal Reserve sets risk-based capital ratio and leverage ratio guidelines for bank holding
companies. Under the guidelines and related policies, bank holding companies must maintain capital sufficient to meet both a
risk-based asset ratio test and a leverage ratio test on a consolidated basis. The guidelines provide a systematic analytical framework
that makes regulatory capital requirements sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations, takes off-balance
sheet exposures expressly into account in evaluating capital adequacy and minimizes disincentives to holding assets considered
by regulatory agencies to be liquid and low-risk. The risk-based ratio is determined by allocating assets and specified off-balance
sheet commitments into risk-weighted categories, with higher weighting assigned to categories perceived as representing greater
risk. The risk-based ratio represents total capital divided by total risk-weighted assets. The leverage ratio is Tier 1 capital divided
by total average assets adjusted as specified in the guidelines. The Bank, supervised by the FDIC and DFI, is subject to substantially
similar capital requirements. Our applicable capital ratios as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are summarized in
Note 13 to the financial statements.
In July 2013, the Federal Reserve published final rules (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) establishing a new comprehensive
capital framework for U.S. bank holding companies. The FDIC adopted substantially identical standards for institutions, like the
Bank, subject to its jurisdiction in an interim final rule. The Basel III Capital Rules implement requirements consistent with
agreements reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. These
rules substantially revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to depository institutions and their holding companies,
including the Company and the Bank. The Basel III Capital Rules were effective for all banks as of January 1, 2015, subject to
certain phase-in periods for some requirements.
Among other things, the Basel III Capital Rules (i) introduce a new capital measure called “Common Equity Tier
1” (“CET1”), (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting specified
requirements, (iii) apply most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures to CET1 and not to the other components of
capital, thus potentially requiring higher levels of CET1 in order to meet minimum ratios, and (iv) expand the scope of the
deductions/adjustments from capital in comparison to current regulations.
As of December 31, 2015, the minimum capital ratios under Basel III Capital Rules were: 4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted
assets, 6.0% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, 8.0% Total capital (Tier 1 Capital plus Tier 2 Capital) to risk-weighted assets
and 4.0% leverage ratio.
In addition, a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above each level applicable to the CET1, Tier 1, and Total capital ratios
will be required for banking institutions like the Company and the Bank to avoid restrictions on their ability to make capital
distributions, including dividends, and pay certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The following are the Basel
III regulatory capital levels that the Company and the Bank must satisfy to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including
dividends, and discretionary bonus payments during the applicable transition period from January 1, 2015, until January 1, 2019:

The Basel III Capital Rules provide for multiple new deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These include, for
example, the requirement that deferred tax assets dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments in non-
consolidated financial entities be deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one category exceeds 10% of total CET1 or all such
categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of CET1. Implementation of these adjustments began on January 1, 2015, and will be
phased in over the following four years.
The Basel III Capital Rules also revise the prompt corrective action framework by (i) introducing a CET1 ratio requirement
at each capital level, with a required CET1 ratio to remain well-capitalized at 6.5%, (ii) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital
ratio requirement for each category, with the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio for well-capitalized status being increased to 8% and
(iii) transitioning to a leverage ratio of 4% in order to qualify as adequately capitalized and a leverage ratio of 5% to be well-
capitalized.
The Company believes that, as of December 31, 2015, the Company and the Bank would meet all capital adequacy
requirements under the Basel III Capital Rules on a fully phased-in basis if such requirements were then effective.
6
Regulation of Banks
Business Activities. The Bank derives its lending and investment powers from the IFIA, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act (the “FDIA”) and related regulations.
Loans-to-One Borrower Limitations. Generally, the Bank’s total loans or extensions of credit to a single borrower,
including the borrower’s related entities, outstanding at one time, and not fully secured, cannot exceed 15% of the Bank’s unimpaired
capital and surplus. If the loans or extensions of credit are fully secured by readily marketable collateral, the Bank may lend up
to an additional 10% of its unimpaired capital and surplus.
Community Reinvestment Act. Under the Community Reinvestment Act (the “CRA”), as implemented by FDIC
regulations, the Bank has a continuing and affirmative obligation, consistent with safe and sound banking practices, to help meet
the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific
lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it limit an institution’s discretion to develop the types of
products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the CRA. The CRA requires the
FDIC, in connection with its examinations of the Bank, to assess the Bank’s record of meeting the credit needs of its entire
community and to take that record into account in evaluating certain applications for regulatory approvals that we may file with
the FDIC.
Due to its Internet-driven model and nationwide consumer banking platform, the Bank has opted to operate under a CRA
Strategic Plan, which was submitted to and approved by the FDIC and sets forth certain guidelines the Bank must meet. The current
Strategic Plan expires December 31, 2017. The Bank received a “Satisfactory” CRA rating in its most recent CRA examination.
Failure of an institution to receive at least a “Satisfactory” rating could inhibit such institution or its holding company from engaging
in certain activities or pursuing acquisitions of other financial institutions.
Transactions with Affiliates. The authority of the Bank, like other FDIC-insured banks, to engage in transactions with its
“affiliates” is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and the Federal Reserve’s Regulation W. An “affiliate”
for this purpose is defined generally as any company that owns or controls the Bank or is under common ownership or control
with the Bank, but excludes a company controlled by a bank. In general, transactions between the Bank and its affiliates must be
on terms that are consistent with safe and sound banking practices and at least as favorable to the Bank as comparable transactions
between the Bank and non-affiliates. In addition, covered transactions with affiliates are restricted individually to 10% and in the
aggregate to 20% of the Bank’s capital. Collateral ranging from 100% to 130% of the loan amount depending on the quality of
the collateral must be provided for an affiliate to secure a loan or other extension of credit from the Bank. The Company is an
“affiliate” of the Bank for purposes of Regulation W and Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. We believe the Bank
is in compliance with these provisions.
Loans to Insiders. The Bank’s authority to extend credit to its directors, executive officers and principal shareholders, as
well as to entities controlled by such persons (“Related Interests”), is governed by Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the Federal Reserve
Act and Regulation O of the Federal Reserve. Among other things, these provisions require that extensions of credit to insiders:
(1) be made on terms that are substantially the same as, and follow credit underwriting procedures that are not less stringent than,
those prevailing for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons and that do not involve more than the normal risk of
repayment or present other unfavorable features; and (2) not exceed certain limitations on the amount of credit extended to such
persons, individually and in the aggregate, which limits are based, in part, on the amount of the Bank’s capital. In addition,
extensions of credit in excess of certain limits must be approved in advance by the Bank’s Board of Directors. Further, provisions
of the Dodd-Frank Act require that after July 21, 2011, any sale or purchase of an asset by the Bank with an insider must be on
market terms and if the transaction represents more than 10% of the Bank’s capital stock and surplus it must be approved in advance
by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Bank. We believe the Bank is in compliance with these provisions.
Enforcement. The DFI and the FDIC share primary regulatory enforcement responsibility over the Bank and its institution-
affiliated parties (“IAPs”), including directors, officers and employees. This enforcement authority includes, among other things,
the ability to appoint a conservator or receiver for the Bank, to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease and desist orders, to
seek judicial enforcement of administrative orders and to remove directors and officers from office and bar them from further
participation in banking. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated in response to violations of laws, regulations and
administrative orders, as well as in response to unsafe or unsound banking practices or conditions.
7
Standards for Safety and Soundness. Pursuant to the FDIA, the federal banking agencies have adopted a set of guidelines
prescribing safety and soundness standards. These guidelines establish general standards relating to internal controls and
information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth,
asset quality, earnings standards, compensation, fees and benefits. In general, the guidelines require appropriate systems and
practices to identify and manage the risks and exposures specified in the guidelines. We believe we are in compliance with the
safety and soundness guidelines.
Dividends. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is limited by state and federal laws and regulations that require the
Bank to obtain the prior approval of the DFI before paying a dividend that, together with other dividends it has paid during a
calendar year, would exceed the sum of its net income for the year to date combined with its retained net income for the previous
two years. The amount of dividends the Bank may pay may also be limited by the principles of prudent bank management.
Capital Distributions. The FDIC may disapprove of a notice or application to make a capital distribution if:
•
•
•
the Bank would be undercapitalized following the distribution;
the proposed capital distribution raises safety and soundness concerns; or
the capital distribution would violate a prohibition contained in any statute, regulation or agreement applicable
to the Bank.
Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The Bank is a member of the DIF, which is administered by the FDIC. All deposit accounts
at the Bank are insured by the FDIC up to a maximum of $250,000 per depositor.
The FDIA, as amended by the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act and the Dodd-Frank Act, requires the FDIC to set
a ratio of deposit insurance reserves to estimated insured deposits—the designated reserve ratio (the “DRR”)—of at least 1.35%.
The FDIC utilizes a risk-based assessment system that imposes insurance premiums based upon a risk matrix that takes into account
a bank’s capital level and supervisory rating. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC introduced three possible adjustments to an
institution’s initial base assessment rate: (1) a decrease of up to five basis points for long-term unsecured debt, including senior
unsecured debt (other than debt guaranteed under the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program) and subordinated debt and, for
small institutions, a portion of Tier 1 capital; (2) an increase not to exceed 50 percent of an institution’s assessment rate before
the increase for secured liabilities in excess of 25 percent of domestic deposits; and (3) for non-Risk Category I institutions, an
increase not to exceed 10 basis points for brokered deposits in excess of 10 percent of domestic deposits. On November 9, 2010,
the FDIC proposed to change its assessment base from total domestic deposits to average total assets minus average tangible equity
as required in the Dodd-Frank Act. The new assessment formula became effective on April 1, 2011, and was used to calculate the
June 30, 2011 assessment. The FDIC plans to raise the same expected revenue under the new base as under the current assessment
base. Since the new base is larger than the current base, the proposal would lower the assessment rate schedule to maintain revenue
neutrality. Assessment rates would be reduced to a range of 2.5 to 9 basis points on the broader assessment base for banks in the
lowest risk category (well capitalized and CAMELS I or II) and up to 30 to 45 basis points for banks in the highest risk category.
FDIC insurance expense, including assessments relating to Financing Corporation (FICO) bonds, totaled $0.6 million
for 2015.
Under the FDIA, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe and
unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule,
order or condition imposed by the FDIC.
Liquidity. The Bank is required to maintain a sufficient amount of liquid assets to ensure its safe and sound operation.
To fund its operations, the Bank historically has relied upon deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLB”)
borrowings, fed funds lines with correspondent banks and brokered deposits. The Bank believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet
its funding obligations.
8
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB, which is one of the regional Federal Home Loan
Banks comprising the Federal Home Loan Bank System. Each Federal Home Loan Bank serves as a central credit facility primarily
for its member institutions. The Bank, as a member of the FHLB, is required to acquire and hold shares of FHLB capital stock.
While the required percentage of stock ownership is subject to change by the FHLB, the Bank is in compliance with this requirement
with an investment in FHLB stock at December 31, 2015 of $8.6 million. Any advances from the FHLB must be secured by
specified types of collateral, and long term advances may be used for the purpose of providing funds to make residential mortgage
or commercial loans and to purchase investments. Long term advances may also be used to help alleviate interest rate risk for
asset and liability management purposes. The Bank receives dividends on its FHLB stock.
Federal Reserve System. Although the Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System, it is subject to provisions
of the Federal Reserve Act and the Federal Reserve’s regulations under which depository institutions may be required to maintain
reserves against their deposit accounts and certain other liabilities. In 2008, the Federal Reserve Banks began paying interest on
reserve balances. Currently, reserves must be maintained against transaction accounts (primarily NOW and regular checking
accounts). As of December 31, 2015, the Federal Reserve’s regulations required reserves equal to 3% on transaction account
balances over $14.5 million and up to $103.6 million, plus 10% on the excess over $103.6 million. These requirements are subject
to adjustment annually by the Federal Reserve. The Bank is in compliance with the foregoing reserve requirements. The balances
maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements imposed
by the FDIC.
Anti-Money Laundering and the Bank Secrecy Act. Under the Bank Secrecy Act (the “BSA”), a financial institution is
required to have systems in place to detect and report transactions of a certain size and nature. Financial institutions are generally
required to report to the U.S. Treasury any cash transactions involving more than $10,000. In addition, financial institutions are
required to file suspicious activity reports for transactions that involve more than $5,000 and which the financial institution knows,
suspects or has reason to suspect involves illegal funds, is designed to evade the requirements of the BSA or has no lawful purpose.
The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001
(the “USA PATRIOT Act”), which amended the BSA, is designed to deny terrorists and others the ability to obtain anonymous
access to the U.S. financial system. The USA PATRIOT Act has significant implications for financial institutions and businesses
of other types involved in the transfer of money. The USA PATRIOT Act, in conjunction with the implementation of various federal
regulatory agency regulations, has caused financial institutions, such as the Bank, to adopt and implement additional policies or
amend existing policies and procedures with respect to, among other things, anti-money laundering compliance, suspicious activity,
currency transaction reporting, customer identity verification and customer risk analysis.
The United States has imposed economic sanctions that affect transactions with designated foreign countries, nationals
and others. These sanctions, which are administered by the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), take many
different forms. Generally, however, they contain one or more of the following elements: (1) restrictions on trade with or investment
in a sanctioned country, including prohibitions against direct or indirect imports from and exports to a sanctioned country and
prohibitions on “U.S. persons” engaging in financial transactions relating to making investments in, or providing investment-
related advice or assistance to, a sanctioned country; and (2) blocking of assets in which the government or specially designated
nationals of the sanctioned country have an interest by prohibiting transfers of property subject to U.S. jurisdiction (including
property in the possession or control of U.S. persons). Blocked assets (for example, property and bank deposits) cannot be paid
out, withdrawn, set off or transferred in any manner without a license from OFAC.
Consumer Protection Laws. The Bank is subject to a number of federal and state laws designed to protect consumers and
prohibit unfair or deceptive business practices. These laws include the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Fair Housing Act, Home
Ownership Protection Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, as amended by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (the
“FACT Act”), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLBA”), the Truth in Lending Act, the CRA, the Home Mortgage Disclosure
Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the National Flood Insurance Act and various state law counterparts. These laws
and regulations mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which financial institutions must interact with
customers when taking deposits, making loans, collecting loans and providing other services. Further, the Dodd-Frank Act
established the CFPB, which has the responsibility for making and amending rules and regulations under the federal consumer
protection laws relating to financial products and services. The CFPB also has a broad mandate to prohibit unfair or deceptive
acts and practices and is specifically empowered to require certain disclosures to consumers and draft model disclosure forms.
Failure to comply with consumer protection laws and regulations can subject financial institutions to enforcement actions, fines
and other penalties. The FDIC will enforce applicable CFPB rules with respect to the Bank.
9
Mortgage Reform. The Dodd-Frank Act prescribes certain standards that mortgage lenders must consider before making
a residential mortgage loan, including verifying a borrower’s ability to repay such mortgage loan. The Dodd-Frank Act also allows
borrowers to assert violations of certain provisions of the Truth-in-Lending Act as a defense to foreclosure proceedings. Under
the Dodd-Frank Act, prepayment penalties are prohibited for certain mortgage transactions and creditors are prohibited from
financing insurance policies in connection with a residential mortgage loan or home equity line of credit. The Dodd-Frank Act
requires mortgage lenders to make additional disclosures prior to the extension of credit, in each billing statement and for negative
amortization loans and hybrid adjustable rate mortgages. Additionally, the Dodd-Frank Act prohibits mortgage originators from
receiving compensation based on the terms of residential mortgage loans and generally limits the ability of a mortgage originator
to be compensated by others if compensation is received from a consumer.
Customer Information Security. The federal banking agencies have adopted final guidelines for establishing standards
for safeguarding nonpublic personal information about customers. These guidelines implement provisions of the GLBA.
Specifically, the Information Security Guidelines established by the GLBA require each financial institution, under the supervision
and ongoing oversight of its board of directors or an appropriate committee thereof, to develop, implement and maintain a
comprehensive written information security program designed to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer information
(as defined under the GLBA), to protect against anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such information and
to protect against unauthorized access to or use of such information that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any
customer. The federal banking regulators have issued guidance for banks on response programs for unauthorized access to customer
information. This guidance, among other things, requires notice to be sent to customers whose “sensitive information” has been
compromised if unauthorized use of this information is “reasonably possible.”
Identity Theft Red Flags. The federal banking agencies jointly issued final rules and guidelines in 2007 implementing
Section 114 of the FACT Act and final rules implementing Section 315 of the FACT Act. The rules implementing Section 114
require each financial institution or creditor to develop and implement a written Identity Theft Prevention Program to detect,
prevent and mitigate identity theft in connection with the opening of certain accounts or certain existing accounts. In addition, the
federal banking agencies issued guidelines to assist financial institutions and creditors in the formulation and maintenance of an
Identity Theft Prevention Program that satisfies the requirements of the rules. The rules implementing Section 114 also require
credit and debit card issuers to assess the validity of notifications of changes of address under certain circumstances. Additionally,
the federal banking agencies issued joint rules, that became effective in 2008, under Section 315 that provide guidance regarding
reasonable policies and procedures that a user of consumer reports must employ when a consumer reporting agency sends the user
a notice of address discrepancy.
Privacy. The GLBA requires financial institutions to implement policies and procedures regarding the disclosure of
nonpublic personal information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties. In general, the statute requires financial institutions
to explain to consumers their policies and procedures regarding the disclosure of such nonpublic personal information and, except
as otherwise required or permitted by law, financial institutions are prohibited from disclosing such information except as provided
in their policies and procedures. The Bank is required to provide notice to its customers on an annual basis disclosing their policies
and procedures on the sharing of nonpublic personal information. In December 2009, the federal banking agencies promulgated
regulations that incorporate a two-page model form that financial institutions may use to satisfy their privacy disclosure obligations
under the GLBA. These regulations became effective in January 2011.
Cybersecurity. In March of 2015, federal regulators issued two related statements regarding cybersecurity. One statement
indicates that financial institutions should design multiple layers of security controls to establish lines of defense and ensure that
their risk management processes also address the risk posed by compromised customer credentials, including security measures
to reliably authenticate customers accessing internet-based services of the financial institution. The other statement indicates that
a financial institution’s management is expected to maintain sufficient business continuity planning processes to ensure the rapid
recovery, resumption, and maintenance of the institution’s operations after a cyber-attack involving destructive malware. A financial
institution is also expected to develop appropriate processes to enable recovery of data and business operations and address
rebuilding network capabilities and restoring data if the institution or its critical service providers fall victim to this type of cyber-
attack. If the Company fails to observe the regulatory guidance, it could be subject to various regulatory sanctions, including
financial penalties.
10
In support of its Internet banking platform, the Company relies heavily on electronic communications and information
systems to conduct its operations and store sensitive data. The Company employs an in-depth approach that leverages people,
processes, and technology to manage and maintain cybersecurity controls. In addition, the Company employs a variety of
preventative and detective tools to monitor, block, and provide alerts regarding suspicious activity, as well as to report on any
suspected advanced persistent threats. Notwithstanding the strength of the Company’s defensive measures, the threat from cyber-
attacks is severe, attacks are sophisticated and increasing in volume, and attackers respond rapidly to changes in defensive measures.
Although to date the Company has not experienced any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security
breaches, its systems and those of its customers and third-party service providers are under constant threat and it is possible that
the Company could experience a significant event in the future. Risks and exposures related to cybersecurity attacks are expected
to remain high for the foreseeable future due to the rapidly evolving nature and sophistication of these threats, as well as due to
the expanding use of Internet and mobile banking and other technology-based products and services, by the Company and its
customers.
Employees
At December 31, 2015, we had 152 full-time equivalent employees. None of our employees are currently represented
by a union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Management believes that its employee relations are satisfactory.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors
Risk factors which could cause actual results to differ from our expectations and which could negatively impact our
financial condition and results of operations are discussed below and elsewhere in this report. Additional risks and uncertainties
not presently known to us or that are currently not believed to be significant to our business may also affect our actual results and
could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of the risks or uncertainties described below or any
additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially
and adversely affected.
11
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
A failure of, or interruption in, the communications and information systems on which we rely to conduct our business could
adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
We rely heavily upon communications and information systems to conduct our business. Although we have built a level
of redundancy into our information technology infrastructure and update our business continuity plan annually, any failure or
interruption of our information systems, or the third-party information systems on which we rely, as a result of inadequate or failed
processes or systems, human errors or external events, could adversely affect our Internet-based operations and slow the processing
of applications, loan servicing, and deposit-related transactions. In addition, our communication and information systems may
present security risks and could be susceptible to hacking or other unauthorized access. The occurrence of any of these events
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our commercial loan portfolio exposes us to higher credit risks than residential real estate and consumer loans, including
risks relating to the success of the underlying business and conditions in the market or the economy and concentrations in our
commercial loan portfolio.
We are growing our C&I and CRE loan portfolios. At December 31, 2015, C&I loans amounted to $102.0 million, or
10.7% of total loans receivable, and CRE loans amounted to $480.9 million, or 50.4% of total loans receivable. These loans
generally involve higher credit risks than residential real estate and consumer loans and are dependent upon our lenders maintaining
close relationships with the borrowers. Payments on these loans are often dependent upon the successful operation and management
of the underlying business or assets, and repayment of such loans may be influenced to a great extent by conditions in the market
or the economy. Commercial loans typically involve larger loan balances than residential real estate or consumer loans and could
lead to concentration risks within our commercial loan portfolio. In addition, our C&I loans have primarily been extended to small
to medium sized businesses that generally have fewer financial resources in terms of capital or borrowing capacity than larger
entities. Our failure to manage this growth could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
In addition, with respect to commercial real estate loans, federal and state banking regulators are examining commercial
real estate lending activity with heightened scrutiny and may require banks with higher levels of commercial real estate loans to
implement more stringent underwriting, internal controls, risk management policies and portfolio stress testing, as well as possibly
higher levels of allowances for losses and capital levels as a result of commercial real estate lending growth and exposures. Because
a significant portion of our loan portfolio is comprised of commercial real estate loans, the banking regulators may require us to
maintain higher levels of capital than we would otherwise be expected to maintain, which could limit our ability to leverage our
capital and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Weakness in the economy may materially adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Our results of operations are materially affected by conditions in the economy generally, which continue to be uncertain
and include sluggish economic growth, accompanied by historically low interest rates. Dramatic declines in the housing market
following the 2008 financial crisis, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures and unemployment, resulted in significant
write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. While conditions have improved, a return to a recessionary economy could
result in financial stress on our borrowers that would adversely affect consumer confidence, a reduction in general business activity
and increased market volatility. The resulting economic pressure on consumers and businesses and the lack of confidence in the
financial markets could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price. Our ability to
properly assess the creditworthiness of our customers and to estimate the losses inherent in our credit exposure would be made
more complex by these difficult market and economic conditions. Accordingly, if market conditions worsen, we may experience
increases in foreclosures, delinquencies, write-offs and customer bankruptcies, as well as more restricted access to funds.
The market value of some of our investments could decline and adversely affect our financial position.
As of December 31, 2015, we had a net unrealized holding loss of approximately $1.9 million on the available for sale
portion of our $213.7 million investment securities portfolio. In assessing the impairment of investment securities, we consider
the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the
issuers, whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and whether we have the intent to sell the security
or will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. We also use economic models to assist in the valuation of
some of our investment securities. If our investment securities experience a decline in value, we would need to determine whether
the decline represented an other-than-temporary impairment, in which case we would be required to record a write-down of the
investment and a corresponding charge to our earnings.
12
Because our business is highly dependent on technology that is subject to rapid change and transformation, we are subject to
risks of obsolescence.
The Bank conducts its consumer lending and deposit gathering activities through the Internet. The financial services
industry is undergoing rapid technological change, and we face constant evolution of customer demand for technology-driven
financial and banking products and services. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological
improvement and product development, marketing and implementation. Any failure to successfully keep pace with and fund
technological innovation in the markets in which we compete could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
We may need additional capital resources in the future and these capital resources may not be available when needed or at all,
without which our financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially impaired.
If we continue to experience significant growth, we may need to raise additional capital. Our ability to raise capital, if
needed, will depend upon our financial performance and on conditions in the capital markets, as well as economic conditions
generally. Accordingly, such financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If we cannot raise additional capital
when needed, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The competitive nature of the banking and financial services industry could negatively affect our ability to increase our market
share and retain
profitability.
Competition in the banking and financial services industry is strong. We compete with commercial banks, savings
institutions, mortgage brokerage firms, credit unions, finance companies, mutual funds, insurance companies and brokerage and
investment banking firms operating locally and nationwide. Some of our competitors have greater name recognition and market
presence than we do and offer certain services that we do not or cannot provide. In addition, larger competitors may be able to
price loans and deposits more aggressively than we do, which could affect our ability to increase our market share and remain
profitable on a long term basis. Our success will depend on the ability of the Bank to compete successfully on a long term basis
within the financial services industry.
We rely on our management team and could be adversely affected by the unexpected loss of key officers.
Our future success and profitability is substantially dependent upon our management and the abilities of our senior
executives. We believe that our future results will also depend in part upon our ability to attract and retain highly skilled and
qualified management. Competition for senior personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining such
personnel. Changes in key personnel and their responsibilities may be disruptive to our business and could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In particular, the loss of our chief executive officer could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Fluctuations in interest rates could reduce our profitability and affect the value of our assets.
Like other financial institutions, we are subject to interest rate risk. Our primary source of income is net interest income,
which is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. We expect
that we will periodically experience imbalances in the interest rate sensitivities of our assets and liabilities and the relationships
of various interest rates to each other. Over any defined period of time, our interest-earning assets may be more sensitive to changes
in market interest rates than our interest-bearing liabilities, or vice-versa. In addition, the individual market interest rates underlying
our loan and deposit products may not change to the same degree over a given time period. In any event, if market interest rates
should move contrary to our position, earnings may be negatively affected. In addition, loan volume and quality and deposit volume
and mix can be affected by market interest rates as can the businesses of our clients. Changes in levels of market interest rates
could have a material adverse effect on our net interest spread, asset quality, loan origination volume, deposit gathering efforts
and overall profitability.
Market interest rates are beyond our control, and they fluctuate in response to economic conditions and the policies of
various governmental and regulatory agencies, in particular, the Federal Reserve. Changes in monetary policy, including changes
in interest rates, may negatively affect our ability to originate loans and leases, the value of our assets and our ability to realize
gains from the sale of our assets, all of which ultimately could affect our earnings.
13
An inadequate allowance for loan losses would reduce our earnings and adversely affect our financial condition and results
of operations.
Our success depends to a significant extent upon the quality of our assets, particularly the credit quality of our loans. In
originating loans, there is a substantial likelihood that credit losses will be experienced. We maintain an allowance for loan losses,
which is a reserve established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense, that represents management’s best estimate
of probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio. The level of the allowance reflects management’s continuing evaluation of industry
concentrations; specific credit risks; loan loss experience; current loan portfolio quality; present economic, political and regulatory
conditions; and unidentified losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance
for loan losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and requires us to make significant estimates of
current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Changes in such estimates may have a significant
impact on our financial statements. The allowance our management has established for loan losses may not be adequate to absorb
losses in our loan portfolio. Continuing deterioration of economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding
existing loans, identification of additional problem loans and other factors, both within and outside our control, may require an
increase in the allowance for loan losses.
Bank regulatory agencies periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require us to increase our provision
for loan losses or recognize further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of our management. To the extent
required charge-offs in future periods exceed the allowance for loan losses, we may need additional provisions to increase the
allowance. Any increases in the allowance for loan losses will result in a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital, and may
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
Consumer loans in our portfolio generally have greater risk of loss or default than residential real estate loans and may make
it necessary to increase our provision for loan losses.
At December 31, 2015, our consumer loans, excluding residential mortgage loans and home equity loans, totaled $108.3
million, representing approximately 11.4% of our total loan portfolio at such date. The overwhelming majority of our consumer
loans are horse trailer and recreational vehicle loans acquired through our indirect dealer network. Consumer loans generally have
a greater risk of loss or default than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of loans that are secured by rapidly
depreciating assets such as horse trailer and recreational vehicles. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer
loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of
damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability,
and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Furthermore, the application
of various federal and state laws, including federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be
recovered on such loans. It may become necessary to increase our provision for loan losses in the event that our losses on these
loans increase, which would reduce our earnings and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Portions of our commercial lending activities are geographically concentrated in the Midwest and Central Indiana, and changes
in local economic conditions may impact their performance.
We offer our retail products and services throughout the United States through our web-based operations. However, both
CRE and C&I relationships are highly dependent on strong lender/borrower relationships. We serve CRE borrowers primarily in
Indiana and the surrounding Midwest states, and our more recent expansion into C&I lending has historically focused primarily
on Central Indiana. Accordingly, the performance of our CRE and C&I lending depends upon demographic and economic conditions
in those regions. The profitability of our CRE and C&I loan portfolio may be impacted by changes in those conditions. Additionally,
unfavorable local or national economic conditions could reduce or limit the growth rate of our CRE and C&I loan portfolios for
a significant period of time, or otherwise decrease the ability of those borrowers to repay their loans, which could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Because of our holding company structure, we depend on capital distributions from the Bank to fund our operations.
We are a separate and distinct legal entity from the Bank and have no business activities other than our ownership of the
Bank. As a result, we primarily depend on dividends, distributions and other payments from the Bank to fund our obligations. The
ability of the Bank to pay dividends to us is limited by state and federal law and depends generally on the Bank’s ability to generate
net income. If we are unable to comply with applicable provisions of these statutes and regulations, the Bank may not be able to
pay dividends to us, and we would not be able to pay dividends on our outstanding common stock and our ability to service our
debt would be materially impaired.
14
Lack of seasoning of our commercial loan portfolios may increase the risk of credit defaults in the future.
Due to our increasing emphasis on CRE and C&I lending, a substantial amount of the loans in our commercial loan
portfolios and our lending relationships are of relatively recent origin. In general, loans do not begin to show signs of credit
deterioration or default until they have been outstanding for some period of time, a process referred to as “seasoning.” A portfolio
of older loans will usually behave more predictably than a newer portfolio. As a result, because a large portion of our commercial
loan portfolio is relatively new, the current level of delinquencies and defaults may not be representative of the level that will
prevail when the portfolio becomes more seasoned, which may be higher than current levels. If delinquencies and defaults increase,
we may be required to increase our provision for loan losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
A sustained decline in the mortgage loan markets or the related real estate markets could reduce loan origination activity or
increase delinquencies, defaults and foreclosures, which could adversely affect our financial results.
Historically, our mortgage loan business has provided a significant portion of our revenue and our ability to maintain or
grow that revenue is dependent upon our ability to originate loans and sell them on the secondary market. For the twelve months
ended December 31, 2014, income from mortgage banking activities was $5.6 million, and it was $9.0 million for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2015. Mortgage loan originations are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including decreased
economic activity, a slowdown in the housing market, and higher market interest rates, and has historically been cyclical, enjoying
periods of strong growth and profitability followed by periods of lower volumes and market-wide losses. During periods of rising
interest rates, refinancing originations for many mortgage products tend to decrease as the economic incentives for borrowers to
refinance their existing mortgage loans are reduced. In addition, the mortgage loan origination business is affected by changes in
real property values. A reduction in real property values could also negatively affect our ability to originate mortgage loans because
the value of the real properties underlying the loans is a primary source of repayment in the event of foreclosure. The national
market for residential mortgage loan refinancing has declined in recent years and future declines could adversely impact our
business. Any sustained period of increased delinquencies, foreclosures or losses could harm our ability to originate and sell
mortgage loans, and the price received on the sale of such loans, which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Reputational risk and social factors may negatively affect us.
Our ability to attract and retain customers is highly dependent upon consumer and other external perceptions of our
business practices and financial condition. Adverse perceptions could damage our reputation to a level that could lead to difficulties
in generating and maintaining deposit accounts and accessing credit markets as well as increased regulatory scrutiny of our business.
Borrower payment behaviors also affect us. To the extent that borrowers determine to stop paying their loans where the financed
properties’ market values are less than the amount of their loans, or for other reasons, our costs and losses may increase. Adverse
developments or perceptions regarding the business practices or financial condition of our competitors, or our industry as a whole,
may also indirectly adversely affect our reputation.
In addition, adverse reputational developments with respect to third parties with whom we have important relationships
may adversely affect our reputation. All of the above factors may result in greater regulatory and/or legislative scrutiny, which
may lead to laws or regulations that may change or constrain the manner in which we engage with our customers and the products
we offer and may also increase our litigation risk. If these risks were to materialize, they could negatively affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
A failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third party vendors and other
service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks, could disrupt our business, result in the disclosure or misuse of
confidential or proprietary information, damage our reputation, increase our costs and cause losses.
We depend upon our ability to process, record and monitor our client transactions on a continuous basis. As client, public
and regulatory expectations regarding operational and information security have increased, our operational systems and
infrastructure must continue to be safeguarded and monitored for potential failures, disruptions and breakdowns. Our business,
financial, accounting and data processing systems, or other operating systems and facilities, may stop operating properly or become
disabled or damaged as a result of a number of factors, including events that are wholly or partially beyond our control. For
example, there could be electrical or telecommunications outages; natural disasters such as earthquakes, tornadoes and hurricanes;
disease pandemics; events arising from local or larger scale political or social matters, including terrorist acts; and, as described
below, cyber-attacks. Although we have business continuity plans and other safeguards in place, our business operations may be
adversely affected by significant and widespread disruption to our physical infrastructure or operating systems that support our
business and clients.
15
Information security risks for financial institutions such as ours have generally increased in recent years in part because
of the proliferation of new technologies, the use of the internet and telecommunications technologies to conduct financial
transactions, and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, activists and other external
parties. As noted above, our operations rely on the secure processing, transmission and storage of confidential information in our
computer systems and networks. Our business relies on our digital technologies, computer and email systems, software and
networks to conduct its operations. In addition, to access our products and services, our clients may use personal smartphones,
tablets, personal computers and other mobile devices that are beyond our control systems. Although we have information security
procedures and controls in place, our technologies, systems, networks and our clients’ devices may become the target of cyber-
attacks or information security breaches that could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss or
destruction of our or our clients’ confidential, proprietary and other information, or otherwise disrupt our or our clients’ or other
third parties’ business operations.
Third parties with whom we do business or that facilitate our business activities, including financial intermediaries or
vendors that provide services or security solutions for our operations, could also be sources of operational and information security
risk to us, including from breakdowns or failures of their own systems or capacity constraints. Although to date we have not
experienced any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches, there can be no assurance that
we will not suffer such losses in the future. Our risk and exposure to these matters remains heightened because of the evolving
nature of these threats. As a result, cybersecurity and the continued development and enhancement of our controls, processes and
practices designed to protect our systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access
remain a focus for us. As threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or
enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate information security vulnerabilities.
Disruptions or failures in the physical infrastructure or operating systems that support our business and clients, or cyber-
attacks or security breaches of the networks, systems or devices that our clients use to access our products and services could
result in client attrition, regulatory fines, penalties or intervention, reputational damage, claims or litigation, reimbursement or
other compensation costs and/or additional compliance costs, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
RISKS RELATING TO THE REGULATION OF OUR INDUSTRY
We operate in a highly regulated environment, which could restrain our growth and profitability.
We are subject to extensive laws and regulations that govern almost all aspects of our operations. These laws and
regulations, and the supervisory framework that oversees the administration of these laws and regulations, are primarily intended
to protect depositors, the Deposit Insurance Fund and the banking system as a whole, and not shareholders. These laws and
regulations, among other matters, affect our lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy, operations
and growth. Compliance with the myriad laws and regulations applicable to our organization can be difficult and costly. In addition,
these laws, regulations and policies are subject to continual review by governmental authorities, and changes to these laws,
regulations and policies, including changes in interpretation or implementation of these laws, regulations and policies, could affect
us in substantial and unpredictable ways and often impose additional compliance costs. Further, any new laws, rules and regulations
could make compliance more difficult or expensive. All of these laws and regulations, and the supervisory framework applicable
to our industry, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Federal and state regulators periodically examine our business and we may be required to remediate adverse examination
findings.
The Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions periodically examine our business,
including our compliance with laws and regulations. If, as a result of an examination, a federal or state banking agency were to
determine that our financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects
of any of our operations had become unsatisfactory, or that we were in violation of any law or regulation, it may take a number
of different remedial actions as it deems appropriate. These actions include the power to enjoin “unsafe or unsound” practices, to
require affirmative action to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that
can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in our capital, to restrict our growth, to assess civil monetary penalties against our
officers or directors, to remove officers and directors and, if it is concluded that such conditions cannot be corrected or there is an
imminent risk of loss to depositors, to terminate our deposit insurance and place us into receivership or conservatorship. Any
regulatory action against us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
16
Our FDIC deposit insurance premiums and assessments may increase which would reduce our profitability.
The deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC up to legal limits and, accordingly, subject to the payment of FDIC
deposit insurance assessments. The Bank’s regular assessments are determined by its risk classification, which is based on its
regulatory capital levels and the level of supervisory concern that it poses. High levels of bank failures during and following the
financial crisis and increases in the statutory deposit insurance limits have increased resolution costs to the FDIC and put significant
pressure on the Deposit Insurance Fund. In order to maintain a strong funding position and restore the reserve ratios of the Deposit
Insurance Fund, the FDIC increased deposit insurance assessment rates and charged a special assessment to all FDIC-insured
financial institutions. Further increases in assessment rates or special assessments may occur in the future, especially if there are
significant additional financial institution failures. Any future special assessments, increases in assessment rates or required
prepayments in FDIC insurance premiums could reduce our profitability or limit our ability to pursue certain business opportunities,
which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The short term and long term impact of recently adopted regulatory capital rules is uncertain and a significant increase in our
capital requirements could have an adverse effect on our business and profitability.
In July 2013, the FDIC and the Federal Reserve approved a new rule that substantially amends the regulatory risk-based
capital rules applicable to the Bank and the Company. The final rule implements the “Basel III” regulatory capital reforms and
changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The final rule includes new minimum
risk-based capital and leverage ratios, which became effective for the Bank and the Company on January 1, 2015, and refines the
definition of what constitutes “capital” for purposes of calculating these ratios. The new minimum capital requirements are: (i) a
new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 to risk-based assets capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a
total capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%. The final rule also establishes a
“capital conservation buffer” of 2.5%, and will result in the following minimum ratios: (i) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio
of 7.0%; (ii) a Tier 1 to risk-based assets capital ratio of 8.5%; and (iii) a total capital ratio of 10.5%. The new capital conservation
buffer requirement will be phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year
until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution will be subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share
repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if its capital level falls below the buffer amount. These limitations will establish a
maximum percentage of eligible retained income that can be used for such actions.
The application of more stringent capital requirements for both the Bank and the Company could, among other things,
result in lower returns on equity, require the raising of additional capital, and result in regulatory actions constraining us from
paying dividends or repurchasing shares if we were to be unable to comply with such requirements, any of which could have a
material adverse effect on our business and profitability.
We are subject to numerous laws designed to protect consumers, including the Community Reinvestment Act and fair lending
laws, and failure to comply with these laws could lead to a wide variety of sanctions.
The Community Reinvestment Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act and other fair lending laws
and regulations impose nondiscriminatory lending requirements on financial institutions. The Department of Justice and other
federal agencies are responsible for enforcing these laws and regulations. A successful regulatory challenge to an institution’s
performance under the Community Reinvestment Act or fair lending laws and regulations could result in a wide variety of sanctions,
including damages and civil money penalties, injunctive relief, restrictions on mergers and acquisitions activity, restrictions on
expansion and restrictions on entering new business lines. Private parties may also have the ability to challenge an institution’s
performance under fair lending laws in private class action litigation. Such actions could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
17
We are subject to evolving and expensive regulations and requirements. Our failure to adhere to these requirements or the
failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures could seriously harm our business.
We are subject to extensive regulation as a financial institution and are also required to follow the corporate governance
and financial reporting practices and policies required of a company whose stock is registered under the Exchange Act and listed
on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Compliance with these requirements means we incur significant legal, accounting and other
expenses that we did not incur before 2013 and are not reflected in our historical financial statements prior to that time. Compliance
also requires a significant diversion of management time and attention, particularly with regard to disclosure controls and procedures
and internal control over financial reporting. Although we have reviewed, and will continue to review, our disclosure controls and
procedures in order to determine whether they are effective, our controls and procedures may not be able to prevent errors or
frauds in the future. Faulty judgments, simple errors or mistakes, or the failure of our personnel to adhere to established controls
and procedures may make it difficult for us to ensure that the objectives of the control system will be met. A failure of our controls
and procedures to detect other than inconsequential errors or fraud could seriously harm our business and results of operations.
We face a risk of noncompliance and enforcement action with the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering statutes
and regulations.
The Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and other laws and regulations require financial institutions,
among other duties, to institute and maintain an effective anti-money laundering program and file suspicious activity and currency
transaction reports as appropriate. The federal Financial Crimes Enforcement Network is authorized to impose significant civil
money penalties for violations of those requirements and has recently engaged in coordinated enforcement efforts with the individual
federal banking regulators, as well as the U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration and Internal Revenue
Service. We are also subject to increased scrutiny of compliance with the rules enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
If our policies, procedures and systems are deemed deficient, we would be subject to liability, including fines and regulatory
actions, which may include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends and the necessity to obtain regulatory approvals to proceed
with certain aspects of our business plan, including our acquisition plans. Failure to maintain and implement adequate programs
to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could also have serious reputational consequences for us. Any of these results
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
There is a limited trading market for our common stock and you may not be able to resell your shares.
Our common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on February 22, 2013 and we issued common stock
through a follow-on public offering in late 2013; however, trading remains relatively limited. Although we expect that a more
liquid market for our common stock will develop, we cannot guarantee that you would be able to resell shares of our common
stock at an attractive price or at all.
The market price of our common stock can be volatile and may decline.
Securities that are not heavily traded can be more volatile than stock trading in an active market. Stock price volatility
may make it more difficult for you to resell your common stock when you want and at prices you find attractive. Our stock price
can fluctuate significantly and may decline in response to a variety of factors including:
• Actual or anticipated variations in quarterly results of operations;
• Developments in our business or the financial sector generally;
• Recommendations by securities analysts;
• Operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;
• News reports relating to trends, concerns and other issues in the financial services industry;
•
• New technology used or services offered by competitors;
•
Perceptions in the marketplace regarding us or our competitors;
Significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint venture or capital commitments by
or involving us or our competitors;
Failure to integrate acquisitions or realize anticipated benefits from acquisitions;
•
• Regulatory changes affecting our industry generally or our business or operations; or
• Geopolitical conditions such as acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts.
18
General market fluctuations, industry factors and general economic and political conditions and events, such as economic
slowdowns or recessions, interest rate changes or credit loss trends, could also cause our stock price to decrease regardless of
operating results.
Federal banking laws limit the acquisition and ownership of our common stock.
Because we are a bank holding company, any purchaser of certain specified amounts of our common stock may be required
to file a notice with or obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended,
and the Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended. Specifically, under regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve, (1) any
other bank holding company may be required to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve before acquiring 5% or more of our
common stock and (2) any person may be required to file a notice with and not be disapproved by the Federal Reserve to acquire
10% or more of our common stock and will be required to file a notice with and not be disapproved by the Federal Reserve to
acquire 25% or more of our common stock.
Anti-takeover provisions could negatively impact our shareholders.
Provisions of Indiana law and provisions of our articles of incorporation could make it more difficult for a third party to
acquire control of us or have the effect of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire control of us. We are subject to
certain anti-takeover provisions under the Indiana Business Corporation Law. Additionally, our articles of incorporation authorize
our Board of Directors to issue one or more classes or series of preferred stock without shareholder approval and such preferred
stock could be issued as a defensive measure in response to a takeover proposal.
Although these provisions do not preclude a takeover, they may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or deferring a
tender offer or takeover attempt that a shareholder might consider in his or her best interest, including those attempts that might
result in a premium over the market price of our common stock. Such provisions will also render the removal of the board of
directors and of management more difficult and, therefore, may serve to perpetuate current management. These provisions could
potentially adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Our shares of common stock are not an insured deposit and as such are subject to loss of entire investment.
The shares of our common stock are not a bank deposit and are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other
government agency. An investment in our common stock is subject to investment risk and an investor must be capable of affording
the loss of the entire investment.
If we were to issue preferred stock, the rights of holders of our common stock and the value of such common stock could be
adversely affected.
Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue classes or series of preferred stock, without any action on the part of our
shareholders. The Board of Directors also has the power, without shareholder approval, to set the terms of any such classes or
series of preferred stock, including voting rights, dividend rights and preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends
or upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our business and other terms. If we issue preferred stock in the future that
has a preference over our common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up,
or if we issue preferred stock with voting rights that dilute the voting power of our common stock, the rights of holders of our
common stock or the value of our common stock would be adversely affected.
We may issue additional shares of common or preferred stock in the future, which could dilute existing shareholders.
Our articles of incorporation authorize our Board of Directors, generally without shareholder approval, to, among other
things, issue additional shares of common stock up to a total of forty-five million shares or up to five million shares of preferred
stock. The issuance of any additional shares of common or preferred stock could be dilutive to a shareholder’s ownership of our
common stock. To the extent that currently outstanding options or warrants to purchase our common stock are exercised, or to the
extent that we issue additional options or warrants to purchase our common stock in the future and the options or warrants are
exercised, our shareholders may experience further dilution. In addition, we may issue preferred stock that is convertible into
shares of our common stock, and upon conversion would result in our common shareholders’ ownership interest being diluted.
Holders of shares of our common stock have no preemptive rights that entitle holders to purchase their pro rata share of any offering
of shares of any class or series and, therefore, shareholders may not be permitted to invest in future issuances of common or
preferred stock. We and the Bank are required by federal and state regulatory authorities, as applicable, to maintain adequate levels
of capital to support our operations. Accordingly, regulatory requirements and/or deterioration in our asset quality may require us
to sell common stock to raise capital under circumstances and at prices which result in substantial dilution.
19
If we default on our subordinated debt, we will be prohibited from paying dividends or distributions on our common stock.
During 2013, we issued a $3.0 million subordinated debenture to a third party, and during 2015, we issued $10.0 million
in subordinated notes to a third party. The agreements under which the subordinated debenture and subordinated notes were issued
prohibit us from paying any dividends on our common stock or making any other distributions to our shareholders at any time
when there shall have occurred and be continuing an event of default under the applicable agreement.
Events of default generally consist of, among other things, our failure to pay any principal or interest on the subordinated
debenture or subordinated notes, as applicable, when due, our failure to comply with certain agreements, terms and covenants
under the agreement (without curing such default following notice), and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation
relating to us.
If an event of default were to occur and we did not cure it, we would be prohibited from paying any dividends or making
any other distributions to our shareholders or from redeeming or repurchasing any of our common stock, which would likely have
a material adverse effect on the market value of our common stock. Moreover, without notice to or consent from the holders of
our common stock, we may enter into additional financing arrangements that may limit our ability to purchase or to pay dividends
or distributions on our common stock.

Properties
The Company owns an office building at 11201 USA Parkway, Fishers, Indiana 46037 with approximately 52,000 square
feet of office space and related real estate located in Fishers, Indiana. This building houses our principal executive offices and
we intend to use the property for the current and future operations of the Company and the Bank.
The Bank is currently leasing approximately 34,618 square feet of office space at the Fishers property. The lease has an
initial term of five years and provides for monthly rent in the amount of $18.50 per square foot.
In March 2013, the Company borrowed $4.0 million from the Bank for the purchase of the Company’s principal executive
offices. The original scheduled maturity date of the loan was March 6, 2014. Effective March 6, 2014, the Company entered into
an Acknowledgment, Confirmation and Amendment that, among other things, extended the maturity of the loan to March 6, 2015.
Effective March 6, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Acknowledgment, Confirmation and Amendment that extended the
maturity of the loan to March 6, 2016. Effective February 26, 2016, the Company entered into a Third Acknowledgment,
Confirmation and Amendment that extended the maturity of the loan to March 6, 2017. The loan bears interest during the term at
a variable rate equal to the then applicable prime rate (as determined by the Bank with reference to the “Prime Rate” published
in The Wall Street Journal) plus 1.00% per annum. The loan agreement contains customary warranties and representations,
affirmative covenants and events of default. The loan agreement provides that the loan is to be secured by a first priority mortgage
and lien on the acquired property and requires that the Company, at all times, maintain collateral securing the loan with an “as is”
market value of not less than 1.3 times the principal balance of the loan.

Dividends
The Company began paying regular quarterly cash dividends in 2013. Total dividends declared in 2015 were $0.24 per
share. The Company expects to continue to pay cash dividends on a quarterly basis; however, the declaration and amount of any
future cash dividends will be subject to the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including
its results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, regulatory and contractual restrictions (including with respect
to the Company’s outstanding subordinated debt), business strategy and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.
During 2013, the Company issued a $3.0 million subordinated debenture to a third party, and during 2015, the Company
issued $10.0 million in subordinated notes to a third party. The agreements under which the subordinated debenture and subordinated
notes were issued prohibit the Company from paying any dividends on its common stock or making any other distributions to
shareholders at any time when there shall have occurred and be continuing an event of default under the applicable agreement. If
an event of default were to occur and the Company did not cure it, the Company would be prohibited from paying any dividends
or making any other distributions to shareholders or from redeeming or repurchasing any common stock.
On June 21, 2013 the Company effected a three-for-two (3:2) stock split of outstanding common stock through the
payment of a stock dividend of one-half of one share for each then-outstanding share of common stock.

Overview
First Internet Bancorp is a bank holding company that conducts its business activities through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
First Internet Bank of Indiana, an Indiana chartered bank. First Internet Bank of Indiana was the first state-chartered, FDIC insured
Internet bank and commenced banking operations in 1999. First Internet Bancorp was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Indiana on September 15, 2005. On March 21, 2006, we consummated a plan of exchange by which we acquired all of the
outstanding shares of the Bank.
We offer a full complement of products and services on a nationwide basis. We conduct our deposit operations primarily
over the Internet and have no traditional branch offices. We have diversified our operations by adding CRE lending, including
nationwide single tenant lease financing, and C&I lending, including business banking/treasury management services to meet the
needs of high-quality commercial borrowers and depositors.
Our business model differs from that of a typical community bank. We do not have a conventional brick and mortar
branch system, but instead operate through our scalable Internet banking platform. The market area for our residential real estate
lending, consumer lending, and deposit gathering activities is the entire United States. We also offer single tenant lease financing
on a nationwide basis. Our other commercial banking activities, including CRE and C&I loans, corporate credit cards, and corporate
treasury management services, are offered by our commercial banking team to businesses primarily within Central Indiana, Phoenix,
Arizona and adjacent markets. We have no significant customer concentrations within our loan portfolio.
Results of Operations
Refer to Item 6 for a summary of the Company's financial performance for the five most recent years.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, net income was $8.9 million, or $1.96 per diluted share, compared
to net income of $4.3 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 and net income of $4.6
million, or $1.51 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
The increase in net income of $4.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the twelve
months ended December 31, 2014 was primarily due to an $8.5 million increase in net interest income and a $3.0 million increase
in noninterest income. This was partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in income tax expense, a $2.6 million increase in
noninterest expense and a $1.6 million increase in provision for loan losses.
The decrease in net income of $0.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to the twelve
months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to a $2.3 million decrease in noninterest income, a $2.2 million increase in
noninterest expense and a $0.6 million increase in income tax expense, partially offset by a $4.8 million increase in net interest
income.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, return on average assets and return on average shareholders’ equity
were 0.81% and 8.89%, respectively, compared to 0.50% and 4.61%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31,
2014, and 0.67% and 7.10%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.

2015 v. 2014
Net interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 was $30.8 million, an increase of $8.5 million, or
38.0%, compared to $22.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. Net interest margin was 2.85% for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 2.65% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The increases in net
interest income and net interest margin were primarily driven by an increase in average interest-earning assets of $236.6 million,
or 28.1%, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, as well as
changes in the composition of the Company’s balance sheet, which resulted in an increase in the yield earned on interest-earning
assets and a decrease in the cost of funds related to interest-bearing liabilities.
The increase in net interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, compared to the twelve months
ended December 31, 2014, was also due to a $10.2 million, or 32.8%, increase in total interest income to $41.4 million for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $31.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The
increase in total interest income was partially offset by a $1.8 million, or 19.8%, increase in total interest expense to $10.7 million
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $8.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.
The increase in total interest income was due primarily to an increase in interest earned on loans resulting from an increase
of $222.3 million, or 35.2%, in the average balance of loans, including loans held-for-sale, as well as an increase in interest earned
on securities resulting from an increase of $28.1 million, or 18.3%, in the average balance of securities for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2015 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in total interest income was
also due to a 21 basis point (“bp”) increase in the yield earned on the securities portfolio, partially offset by a decline in the yield
earned on loans, including loans held-for-sale, of 7 bps.
The increase in total interest expense was driven primarily by an increase in interest expense related to interest-bearing
deposits as a result of a $131.1 million, or 18.5%, increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2015 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, partially offset by a decline of 4 bps in the
cost of funds related to these deposits. Interest expense related to other borrowed funds also contributed to the increase in total
interest expense, due to a $94.3 million, or 207.5%, increase in the average balance of other borrowed funds for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2015 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, partially offset by a decline of 142 bps in
the cost of other borrowed funds.
27
2014 v. 2013
Net interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $22.3 million, an increase of $4.8 million, or
27.7%, compared to $17.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. Net interest margin was 2.65% for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2014 compared to 2.67% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in net interest
income was primarily driven by an increase in average interest-earning assets of $187.2 million, or 28.6%, for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2014 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The modest decline in net interest margin
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 was driven primarily
by the decline in market interest rates during 2014 as the yield on interest-earnings assets decreased 19 bps and the cost of interest-
bearing liabilities decreased 17 bps.
The increase in net interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, as compared to the twelve months
ended December 31, 2013, was also due to a $5.7 million, or 22.2%, increase in total interest income to $31.2 million for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $25.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The
increase in total interest income was partially offset by a $0.8 million, or 10.4%, increase in total interest expense to $8.9 million
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $8.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
The increase in total interest income was due primarily to an increase in interest earned on loans resulting from an increase
of $195.9 million, or 45.0%, in the average balance of loans, including loans held-for-sale, which was offset by a decrease in
interest earned on securities resulting from a decrease of $27.1 million, or 15.0%, in the average balance of securities for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2014 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in total interest income
was also partially offset by a 48 bp decline in the yield earned on the securities portfolio and a 37 bp decline in the yield earned
on loans, including loans held-for-sale.
The increase in total interest expense was driven primarily by an increase in interest expense related to interest-bearing
deposits as a result of a $141.2 million, or 24.9%, increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2014 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, partially offset by a decline of 13 bps in the
cost of funds related to these deposits. Interest expense related to other borrowed funds also contributed to the increase in total
interest expense, due to a $14.0 million, or 44.3%, increase in the average balance of other borrowed funds for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2014 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, partially offset by a decline of 109 bps in
the cost of other borrowed funds.

2015 v. 2014
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, noninterest income totaled $10.1 million, representing an increase
of $3.0 million, or 41.4% compared to $7.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in noninterest
income was primarily driven by an increase of $3.4 million, or 60.5%, in mortgage banking activities resulting primarily from
higher origination volumes. The increase in mortgage banking activities was partially offset by a $0.5 million decline in gains
related to sales of securities.
28
2014 v. 2013
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, noninterest income totaled $7.2 million, representing a decrease
of $2.3 million, or 24.6%, compared to $9.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in noninterest
income was primarily driven by a decrease of $3.1 million, or 35.4%, in mortgage banking activities, due primarily to a decrease
in the volume of loans sold, which was slightly offset by an increase in the gain on sale margin. The decrease in income from
mortgage banking activities was partially offset by an increase of $0.6 million related to gains on sales of securities and a decrease
of $0.1 million from losses on asset disposals.

2015 v. 2014
Noninterest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 was $25.3 million, compared to $22.7 million for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The increase of $2.6 million, or 11.6%, compared to the twelve months ended
December 31, 2014 was primarily due to an increase of $1.9 million in salaries and employee benefits, an increase of $0.5 million
in consulting and professional services, an increase of $0.3 million in marketing, advertising and promotion, and an increase $0.1
million in deposit insurance premium expenses, slightly offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in premises and equipment expenses.
The increase in salaries and employee benefits was attributable to increased headcount driven by the Company's continued growth,
increased equity compensation expense, and increased bonus expense. The increase in bonus expense was primarily attributable
to improved profitability in 2015, which resulted in senior management earning annual cash bonuses under the 2015 Senior
Management Bonus Plan. In 2014, there were no cash bonuses earned under the 2014 Senior Management Bonus Plan because
the threshold criterion for payment was not met. The increase in consulting and professional services was due primarily to an
increase in legal and other professional fees consistent with the Company's balance sheet and operational growth as well as increased
regulatory compliance matters. The increase in marketing, advertising and promotion was due to higher sponsorships and online
channel origination costs related to the increase in mortgage origination activity.
2014 v. 2013
Noninterest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $22.7 million, compared to $20.5 million for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The increase of $2.2 million, or 10.6%, compared to the twelve months ended
December 31, 2013 was due to an increase of $2.1 million in salaries and employee benefits, an increase of $0.7 million in premises
and equipment, and an increase of $0.1 million in deposit insurance premium expenses, partially offset by decreases of $0.4 million
in marketing, advertising and promotion, $0.3 million in consulting and professional services, and $0.2 million in loan expenses.
The increase in salaries and employee benefits was attributable to increased headcount driven by the Company's continued growth.

$732.4 million as of December 31, 2014. Total commercial loans increased $231.8 million, or 66.0%, as of December 31, 2015
compared to December 31, 2014, due to increases of $181.7 million, or 94.4%, in single tenant lease financing, $24.8 million, or
32.1%, in commercial and industrial, $21.0 million, or 84.5%, in construction, and $10.2 million, or 29.6%, in owner-occupied
commercial real estate. These increases were partially offset by a decline of $5.9 million, or 26.7%, in investor commercial real
estate. Total consumer loans decreased $10.0 million, or 2.7%, as of December 31, 2015, compared to December 31, 2014, due
primarily to decreases of $15.2 million, or 25.9%, in home equity and $6.1 million, or 2.7%, in residential mortgages. These
decreases were partially offset by an increase of $11.2 million, or 11.6%, in other consumer loans.

Loan Approval Procedures and Authority
Our lending activities follow written, non-discriminatory policies with loan approval limits approved by the board of
directors of the Bank. Loan officers have underwriting and approval authorization of varying amounts based on their years of
experience in the lending field. Additionally, based on the amount of the loan, multiple approvals may be required. Based on the
Company’s legal lending limit, the maximum the Bank could lend to any one borrower at December 31, 2015 was $16.9 million.
Our goal is to have a well-diversified and balanced loan portfolio. In order to manage our loan portfolio risk, we establish
concentration limits by borrower, product type, industry and geography. To supplement our internal loan review resources, we
have engaged an independent third-party loan review group, which is a key component of our overall risk management process
related to credit administration.

A loan is designated as impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance when, based on current
information or events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due (principal and interest) according
to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Payments with delays generally not exceeding 90 days outstanding are not considered
impaired. Certain nonaccrual and substantially all delinquent loans more than 90 days past due may be considered to be impaired.
Generally, loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 90 days past due and accrued interest is reversed against earnings, unless the
loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. The accrual of interest on impaired and nonaccrual loans is discontinued
when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due.
Impaired loans include nonperforming commercial loans but also include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings
(“TDRs”) where concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions could include
a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions intended to
maximize collection.
Nonperforming loans are comprised of total nonaccrual loans and loans 90 days past due and accruing. Nonperforming
assets include nonperforming loans, other real estate owned and other nonperforming assets, which consist of repossessed assets.
Nonperforming assets also included investments that were classified as other-than-temporarily impaired as of December 31, 2012
and 2011.

The decrease in total nonperforming assets was due primarily to declines in loans 90 days past due and accruing and in
nonaccrual loans. Total nonperforming loans decreased $0.1 million, or 43.6%, to $0.2 million as of December 31, 2015 compared
to $0.3 million as of December 31, 2014. Other nonperforming assets increased by less than $0.1 million, or 3.7%, as of
December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014. As a result, the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans receivable improved
to 0.02% as of December 31, 2015 compared to 0.04% as of December 31, 2014, and the ratio of nonperforming assets to total
assets improved to 0.37% as of December 31, 2015 compared to 0.50% as of December 31, 2014.
As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had one commercial property in other real estate owned
with a carrying value of $4.5 million. This property consists of two buildings which are residential units adjacent to a university
campus. Improvements to the property have been made in collaboration with the university and the property continues to be
occupied.

The determination of the allowance for loan losses and the related provision is one of our critical accounting policies that
is subject to significant estimates, as discussed within the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section below. The current
level of the allowance for loan losses is a result of management’s assessment of the risks within the portfolio based on the information
obtained through the credit evaluation process. The Company utilizes a risk-rating system on non-homogenous commercial loans
that includes regular credit reviews to identify and quantify the risk in the commercial portfolio. Management conducts quarterly
reviews of the entire loan portfolio and evaluates the need to establish allowances on the basis of these reviews.
Management actively monitors asset quality and, when appropriate, charges off loans against the allowance for loan
losses. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance
for loan losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the economic conditions in
the assumptions used to determine the size of the allowance for loan losses.
The allowance for loan losses was $8.4 million as of December 31, 2015, compared to $5.8 million as of December 31,
2014. The increase of $2.6 million, or 44.0%, was due primarily to the continued growth in commercial loan balances. During
the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded net recoveries of $0.6 million, compared to net recoveries
of less than $0.1 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. During the twelve months ended December 31,
2015, the net recoveries were driven primarily by a $0.5 million recovery of an investor commercial real estate loan that had been
previously charged-off and a $0.4 million recovery of a residential mortgage loan, of which $0.3 million related to the recapture
of principal previously charged-off. The recoveries were partially offset by charge-offs of $0.6 million in residential mortgage and
other consumer loans. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, the net recoveries were driven primarily by a $0.5
million recovery of an investor commercial real estate loan. The recoveries were mostly offset by charge offs of $0.9 million,
primarily related to residential mortgage and other consumer loans.
33
The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans receivable increased to 0.88% as of December 31, 2015,
compared to 0.79% as of December 31, 2014, and as a percentage of nonperforming loans increased to 5,000.6% as of December 31,
2015, compared to 1,959.5% as of December 31, 2014. The increase in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans
receivable was primarily driven by a $2.6 million increase in the allowance related to total commercial loans at December 31,
2015 compared to December 31, 2014. Under the Company’s allowance for loan losses methodology, commercial loans are
assigned higher reserve factors than consumer loans. Since December 31, 2014, commercial loan growth has outpaced consumer
loan growth, and as of December 31, 2015, total commercial loans represented 61.1% of total loans receivable compared to 47.9%
as of December 31, 2014. The combination of higher growth and higher reserve factors related to commercial loans resulted in
the increased percentage of allowance for loan losses to total loans receivable. The increase in the allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of nonperforming loans as of December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014 was also due to the increase in the
allowance for loan losses and the decline in nonperforming loans.
Investment Securities
In managing the Company’s investment securities portfolio, management focuses on providing an adequate level of
liquidity and establishing an interest rate-sensitive position, while earning an adequate level of investment income without taking
undue risk. Investment securities that are acquired and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term with the
objective of generating economic profits on short-term differences in market characteristics are classified as securities held for
trading. Securities that we intend to hold until maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities, and all other investment
securities are classified as available-for-sale. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, all of the Company’s investment securities were
classified as available-for-sale. The carrying values of available-for-sale investment securities are adjusted for unrealized gains
or losses as a valuation allowance and any gain or loss is reported on an after-tax basis as a component of other comprehensive
income (loss).
The Company periodically evaluates each available-for-sale security in an unrealized loss position to determine if the
impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. As of December 31, 2015, the unrealized losses in the Company’s investment
securities portfolio were due solely to interest rate changes. The Company has the ability and intent to hold all investment securities
with identified impairments resulting from interest rate changes to the earlier of the forecasted recovery or the maturity of the
underlying investment security. As of December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any investment securities of a single issuer,
which were not governmental or government-sponsored, that exceeded 10% of shareholders’ equity.
The following tables present the amortized cost and approximate fair value of the Company’s investment securities
portfolio by security type as of the end of the last five years.

The approximate fair value of investment securities available-for-sale increased $76.2 million, or 55.4%, to $213.7 million
as of December 31, 2015 compared to $137.5 million as of December 31, 2014. The increase was due primarily to increases of
$24.2 million in U.S. Government-sponsored agencies, $21.5 million in municipal securities, $14.4 million in asset-backed
securities and $19.1 million in corporate securities, partially offset by a decrease of $4.0 million in mortgage-backed securities.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the Company deployed funds generated through deposit growth to purchase
additional securities to further diversify the securities portfolio and enhance net interest income, while supporting liquidity and
interest rate risk management.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
While the Company believes it has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet its cash and capital expenditure
requirements for at least the next twelve months, including any cash dividends it may pay, the Company intends to continue
pursuing its growth strategy, which may require additional capital. If the Company is unable to secure such capital at favorable
terms, its ability to execute its growth strategy could be adversely affected.
Liquidity management is the process used by the Company to manage the continuing flow of funds necessary to meet
its financial commitments on a timely basis and at a reasonable cost while also maintaining safe and sound operations. Liquidity,
represented by cash and investment securities, is a product of the Company’s operating, investing and financing activities. The
primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and investment securities, maturing loans and
investment securities, access to wholesale funding sources and collateralized borrowings. While scheduled payments and maturities
of loans and investment securities are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows are greatly influenced by interest rates,
general economic conditions and competition. Therefore, the Company supplements deposit growth and enhances interest rate
risk management through borrowings, which are generally advances from the FHLB.
The Company maintains cash and investment securities that qualify as liquid assets to maintain adequate liquidity to
ensure safe and sound operations and meet its financial commitments. At December 31, 2015, on a consolidated basis, the Company
had $239.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing time deposits and investment securities available-for-sale and
$36.5 million in loans held-for-sale that were generally available for its cash needs. The Company can also generate funds from
wholesale funding sources and collateralized borrowings. At December 31, 2015, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional
$99.0 million in advances from the FHLB and correspondent bank Fed Funds lines of credit.
The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its operating
expenses, the Company is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its common shareholders and interest and principal
on outstanding debt. The Company’s primary sources of funds are cash maintained at the holding company level and dividends
from the Bank, the payment of which is subject to regulatory limits. At December 31, 2015, the Company, on an unconsolidated
basis, had $6.9 million in cash generally available for its cash needs.
The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing financial commitments, including withdrawals by
depositors, credit commitments to borrowers, operating expenses and capital expenditures. At December 31, 2015, approved
outstanding loan commitments, including unused lines of credit, amounted to $131.9 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled
to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2015 totaled $287.7 million. Generally, the Company believes that a majority of
maturing deposits will remain with the Bank.
In March 2013, the Company borrowed $4.0 million from the Bank for the purchase of the Company’s principal executive
offices. The original scheduled maturity date of the loan was March 6, 2014. Effective March 6, 2014, the Company entered into
an Acknowledgment, Confirmation and Amendment that, among other things, extended the maturity of the loan to March 6, 2015.
Effective March 6, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Acknowledgment, Confirmation and Amendment that extended the
maturity of the loan to March 6, 2016. Effective February 26, 2016, the Company entered into a Third Acknowledgment,
Confirmation and Amendment that extended the maturity of the loan to March 6, 2017. The loan bears interest during the term at
a variable rate equal to the then applicable prime rate (as determined by the Bank with reference to the “Prime Rate” published
in The Wall Street Journal) plus 1.00% per annum. The loan agreement contains customary warranties and representations,
affirmative covenants and events of default. The loan agreement provides that the loan is to be secured by a first priority mortgage
and lien on the acquired property and requires that the Company, at all times, maintain collateral securing the loan with an “as is”
market value of not less than 1.3 times the principal balance of the loan.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This annual report on Form 10-K contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP financial measures, specifically tangible common equity,
tangible assets, average tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, return on average tangible common
equity and tangible common equity to tangible assets are used by management to measure the strength of its capital and its ability
to generate earnings on tangible capital invested by its shareholders. Although the Company believes these non-GAAP measures
provide a greater understanding of its business, they should not be considered a substitute for financial measures determined in
accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other
companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures
are included in the following table.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Allowance for Loan Losses. We believe the allowance for loan losses is the critical accounting policy that requires the
most significant judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. An estimate of
potential losses inherent in the loan portfolio is determined and an allowance for those losses is established by considering factors
including historical loss rates, expected cash flows, and estimated collateral values. The allowance for loan losses represents
management’s best estimate of losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the
provision for loan losses charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. Management evaluates the
allowance for loan losses quarterly. If the underlying assumptions later prove to be inaccurate based on subsequent loss evaluations,
the allowance for loan losses is adjusted.
38
Management estimates the appropriate level of allowance for loan losses by separately evaluating impaired and non-
impaired loans. A specific allowance is assigned to an impaired loan when expected cash flows or collateral do not justify the
carrying amount of the loan. The methodology used to assign an allowance to a non-impaired loan is more subjective. Generally,
the allowance assigned to non-impaired loans is determined by applying historical loss rates to existing loans with similar risk
characteristics, adjusted for qualitative factors including changes in economic conditions, changes in underwriting standards, and
changes in concentrations of credit risk, and changes in industry conditions. Because the economic and business climate in any
given industry or market, and its impact on any given borrower, can change rapidly, the risk profile of the loan portfolio is
periodically assessed and adjusted when appropriate. Notwithstanding these procedures, there still exists the possibility that the
assessment could prove to be significantly incorrect and that an immediate adjustment to the allowance for loan losses would be
required.
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. We classify investments in debt and equity securities as available-for-sale in
accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 320, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities.” Securities classified as held-to-maturity would be recorded at cost or amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are
carried at fair value. Fair value calculations are based on quoted market prices, when such prices are available. If quoted market
prices are not available, estimates of fair value are computed using a variety of pricing sources, including Reuters/EJV, Interactive
Data and Standard & Poors. Due to the subjective nature of the valuation process, it is possible that the actual fair values of these
investments could differ from the estimated amounts, thereby affecting our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
If the estimated value of investments is less than the cost or amortized cost, management evaluates whether an event or change
in circumstances has occurred that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. If such an event or
change has occurred and management determines that the impairment is other-than-temporary, a further determination is made as
to the portion of impairment that is related to credit loss. The impairment of the investment that is related to the credit loss is
expensed in the period in which the event or change occurred. The remainder of the impairment is recorded in other comprehensive
income (loss).
Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”). OREO acquired through loan foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less
costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. The adjustment at the time of foreclosure is recorded through the
allowance for loan losses. Due to the subjective nature of establishing the fair value when the asset is acquired, the actual fair
value of the OREO or foreclosed asset could differ from the original estimate. If it is determined that fair value declines subsequent
to foreclosure, a valuation adjustment is recorded through noninterest expense. Net operating costs associated with the assets after
acquisition are also recorded as noninterest expense. Gains and losses on the disposition of OREO and foreclosed assets are netted
and posted through noninterest income.
Impairment of Goodwill. As a result of the Company’s previous acquisition of Landmark Financial Corporation, goodwill,
an intangible asset with an indefinite life, is reflected on the balance sheet. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually, unless
there are factors present that indicate a potential impairment, in which case, the goodwill impairment test is performed more
frequently.
Deferred Income Tax Assets/Liabilities. Our net deferred income tax asset arises from differences in the dates that items
of income and expense enter into our reported income and taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for
these items as they arise. From an accounting standpoint, deferred tax assets are reviewed to determine if they are realizable based
on the historical level of taxable income, estimates of future taxable income and the reversals of deferred tax liabilities. In most
cases, the realization of the deferred tax asset is based on future profitability. If we were to experience net operating losses for tax
purposes in a future period, the realization of deferred tax assets would be evaluated for a potential valuation reserve.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Refer to Note 21 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial transactions to extend credit and forms of
commitments that may be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We enter into forward contracts relating to our mortgage
banking business to hedge the exposures we have from commitments to extend new residential mortgage loans to our customers
and from our mortgage loans held-for-sale. At December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had commitments to sell residential
real estate loans of $42.7 million and $55.1 million, respectively. These contracts mature in less than one year.

Item 7A.
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, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. The primary source of market risk for the Company is interest rate risk.
Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and the value of the Company’s equity resulting from changes in market interest rates and
arises in the normal course of business to the extent that there are timing and volume differences between the amount of interest-
earning assets and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities that are prepaid, withdrawn, re-priced or mature in specified periods.
The Company seeks to achieve consistent growth in net interest income and equity while managing volatility arising from shifts
in market interest rates.
The Company monitors its interest rate risk position using income simulation models and economic value of equity
(“EVE”) sensitivity analysis that capture both short-term and long-term interest rate risk exposure. Income simulation involves
forecasting net interest income (“NII”) under a variety of interest rate scenarios. The Company uses EVE sensitivity analysis to
understand the impact of changes in interest rates on long-term cash flows, income and capital. EVE is calculated by discounting
the cash flows for all balance sheet instruments under different interest-rate scenarios. Modeling the sensitivity of NII and EVE
to changes in market interest rates is highly dependent on the assumptions incorporated into the modeling process. The Company
continually reviews and refines the assumptions used in its interest rate risk modeling.
Presented below is the estimated impact on the Company's NII and EVE position as of December 31, 2015, assuming
parallel shifts in interest rates:
% Change from Base Case for Parallel Changes in Rates
-100 Basis Points 1
+100 Basis Points
+200 Basis Points
NII - next twelve months
EVE
(1.06)%
1.60 %
0.11 %
(5.16)%
0.21 %
(9.52)%
___________________________________
1 Because certain current interest rates are at or below 1.00%, the 100 basis point downward shock assumes that certain corresponding interest
rates approach an implied floor that, in effect, reflects a decrease of less than the full 100 basis point downward shock.
The Company’s objective is to manage the balance sheet with a bias toward asset sensitivity while simultaneously
balancing the potential earnings impact of this strategy. A “risk-neutral” position refers to the absence of a strong bias toward
either asset or liability sensitivity. An “asset sensitive” position refers to when the characteristics of the balance sheet are expected
to generate higher net interest income when interest rates, primarily short-term rates, increase as rates earned on interest-earning
assets would reprice upward more quickly or in greater quantities than rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities would reprice. A
“liability sensitive” position refers to when the characteristics of the balance sheet are expected to generate lower net interest
income when short-term interest rates increase as rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly or
in greater quantities than rates earned on interest-earning assets.

“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in SEC rules and forms. These
controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management,
including our principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, the Company has recognized that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control
objectives. Management is required to apply judgment in evaluating its controls and procedures.
40
The Company performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the
Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to assess the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our principal

Report of Management's Assessment of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the
Company, including accounting and other internal control systems that, in the opinion of management, provide reasonable assurance
that (1) transactions are properly authorized, (2) the assets are properly safeguarded, and (3) transactions are properly recorded
and reported to permit the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on
that assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
is effective based on those criteria. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 has been
audited by BKD, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in its report appearing on page F-2.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31,
2015, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Shareholders
First Internet Bancorp
Fishers, Indiana
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Internet Bancorp (the “Company”) as of December 31,
2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity and cash flows
for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015. The Company’s management is responsible for these
financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. Our audits included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of First Internet Bancorp as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), First
Internet Bancorp's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)
and our report dated March 10, 2016, expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting.

Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Shareholders
First Internet Bancorp
Fishers, Indiana
We have audited First Internet Bancorp’s (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015,
based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal
control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in
the accompanying Report of Management’s Assessment of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, First Internet Bancorp maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated financial statements of First Internet Bancorp and our report dated March 10, 2016, expressed an unqualified opinion
thereon.

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
Note 1:
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies of First Internet Bancorp and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) conform to accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). A summary of the Company’s significant accounting
policies follows:
Description of Business
The Company was incorporated on September 15, 2005, and consummated a plan of exchange on March 21, 2006, by
which the Company became a bank holding company and 100% owner of First Internet Bank of Indiana (the “Bank”).
The Bank provides commercial and retail banking services, with operations conducted on the Internet at www.firstib.com
and primarily through its corporate office located in Fishers, Indiana as well as a loan production office in Tempe, Arizona.
The majority of the Bank’s income is derived from commercial lending, retail lending, and mortgage banking activities.
The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank is regulated by certain state and federal
agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
JKH Realty Services, LLC was established August 20, 2012 as a single member LLC wholly owned by the Bank to
manage other real estate owned properties as needed.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s business
activities are currently limited to one reporting unit and reportable segment, which is commercial banking.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company utilizes
processes that involve the use of significant estimates and the judgment of management in determining the amount of the
Company’s allowance for credit losses and income taxes, as well as fair value measurements of investment securities,
derivatives, goodwill, and loans held-for-sale. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Securities
The Company classifies its securities in one of three categories and accounts for the investments as follows:
•
•
•
Securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to
maturity” and reported at amortized cost. The Company had no securities classified as “held to maturity” at
December 31, 2015 or 2014.
Securities that are acquired and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term with the objective
of generating economic profits on short-term differences in market characteristics are classified as “trading
securities” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. The Company had
no securities classified as “trading securities” at December 31, 2015 or 2014.
Securities not classified as either “held to maturity” or “trading securities” are classified as “securities available
for sale” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, after applicable taxes, excluded from
earnings and reported in a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Declines in the value of debt securities
and marketable equity securities that are considered to be other-than-temporary are recorded as an other-than-
temporary impairment of securities available for sale with other-than-temporary impairment losses recorded in
the consolidated statements of income.
F-8
First Internet Bancorp
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of premium or discount, is included in earnings using the effective
interest rate method. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets on the trade date.
Gains and losses from security sales or disposals are recognized as of the trade date in the consolidated statements of
income for the period in which securities are sold or otherwise disposed of. Gains and losses on sales of securities are
determined using the specific-identification method.
Loans Held-for-Sale
Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market under best-efforts pricing agreements are carried at the
lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance
by charges to noninterest income.
Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market under mandatory pricing agreements are carried at fair
value to facilitate hedging of the loans. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are included in noninterest
income.
Gains and losses on loan sales are recorded in noninterest income, and direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred
at origination of the loan and are recognized in noninterest income upon sale of the loan.
Revenue Recognition
Interest income on loans is accrued as earned using the interest method based on unpaid principal balances except for
interest on loans in nonaccrual status. Interest on loans in nonaccrual status is recorded as a reduction of loan principal
when received.
Premiums and discounts are amortized using the effective interest rate method.
Loan fees, net of certain direct origination costs, primarily salaries and wages, are deferred and amortized to interest
income as a yield adjustment over the life of the loan.
Loans Receivable
Loans that management intends to hold until maturity are reported at their outstanding principal balance adjusted for
unearned income, charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, any unamortized deferred fees or costs on originated loans,
and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.
For loans recorded at cost, interest income is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net
of certain direct origination costs, as well as premiums and discounts, are deferred and amortized as a level yield adjustment
over the respective term of the loan.
Allowance for Loan Losses Methodology
Company policy is designed to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”). Primary responsibility for
ensuring that the Company has processes in place to consistently assess the adequacy of the ALLL rests with the Board
of Directors (the “Board”). The Board has charged management with responsibility for establishing the methodology to
be used and to assess the adequacy of the ALLL. The Board reviews recommendations from management on a quarterly
basis to adjust the allowance as appropriate.
The methodology employed by management for each portfolio segment, at a minimum, contains the following:
1. Loans are segmented by type of loan.
F-9
First Internet Bancorp
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
2. The required ALLL for types of performing homogeneous loans which do not have a specific reserve is
determined by applying a factor based on historical losses averaged over the past twelve months. In those
instances where the Company’s historical experience is not available, management develops factors based
on industry experience and best practices.
3. All criticized, classified and impaired loans are tested for impairment by applying one of three methodologies:
a. Present value of future cash flows;
b. Fair value of collateral less costs to sell; or
c. The loan’s observable market price
4. All troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) are considered impaired loans.
5. Loans tested for impairment are removed from other pools to prevent layering (double-counting).
6. The required ALLL for each group of loans are added together to determine the total required ALLL for the
Company. The required ALLL is compared to the existing ALLL to determine the provision required to
increase the ALLL or credit to decrease the ALLL.
The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and considers two weighted average net charge-off
trends: 1) the Company’s average loss history over the previous sixteen quarters; and 2) average loss history over the
previous sixteen quarters for a peer group. Management believes the historical loss experience methodology is appropriate
in the current economic environment, as it captures loss rates that are comparable to the current period being analyzed.
The Company also factors in the following qualitative considerations:
1. Changes in policies and procedures;
2. Changes in national, regional, and local economic and business conditions;
3. Changes in the composition and size of the portfolio and in the terms of loans;
4. Changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;
5. Changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and
severity of adversely classified or graded loans;
6. Changes in the quality of the Company’s loan review system;
7. Changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans;
8. The existence and effect of any concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; and
9. The effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level
of estimated credit losses in the existing portfolio.
During 2015, management elected to further segment the presentation of the Company’s loan portfolio. The revised
segmentation groups loans with similar characteristics, allows for greater insight of qualitative considerations and is
consistent with how the Company manages its loan portfolio. This revision did not have a material impact on the overall
balance of the allowance. December 31, 2014 loan balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2015
presentation. Refer to Note 4 for further discussion of each loan portfolio segment’s risk characteristics.

Provision for Loan Losses
A provision for estimated losses on loans is charged to income based upon management’s evaluation of the potential
losses. Such an evaluation, which includes a review of all loans for which full repayment may not be reasonably assured,
considers, among other matters, the estimated net realizable value of the underlying collateral, as applicable, economic
conditions, loan loss experience, and other factors that are particularly susceptible to changes that could result in a material
adjustment in the near term. While management attempts to use the best information available in making its evaluations,
future allowance adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions change substantially from the assumptions used
in making the evaluations.
Nonaccrual Loans
Any loan which becomes 90 days delinquent or for which the full collection of principal and interest may be in doubt
will be considered for nonaccrual status. At the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all accrued but unpaid interest
will be reversed from interest income. Placing the loan on nonaccrual status does not relieve the borrower of the obligation
to repay interest. A loan placed on nonaccrual status may be restored to accrual status when all delinquent principal and
interest has been brought current, and the Company expects full payment of the remaining contractual principal and
interest.
Impaired Loans
A loan is designated as impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance when, based on current
information or events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due (principal and interest)
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Payments with delays generally not exceeding 90 days outstanding
are not considered impaired. Certain nonaccrual and substantially all delinquent loans more than 90 days past due may
be considered to be impaired. Generally, loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 90 days past due and accrued interest
is reversed against earnings, unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. The accrual of interest on
impaired and nonaccrual loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet
payments as they become due.
Impaired loans include nonperforming commercial loans but also include loans modified in TDRs where concessions
have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions could include a reduction in the
interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions intended to maximize
collection.
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 310, Receivables, requires that impaired loans be measured based on
the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans’ effective interest rates or the fair value of the
underlying collateral, less costs to sell, and allows existing methods for recognizing interest income.
Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDR”)
The loan portfolio includes certain loans that have been modified in a TDR, where economic concessions have been
granted to borrowers who have experienced financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from loss mitigation
efforts and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other
actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructuring and typically are returned to performing
status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally not less than
six months.
When loans are modified in a TDR, any possible impairment similar to other impaired loans is evaluated based on either
the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement,
or the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs for collateral dependent loans. If it is determined that the value
of the modified loan is less than the recorded balance of the loan, impairment is recognized through a specific ALLL or
charge-off to the ALLL. In periods subsequent to modification, all TDRs, including those that have payment defaults,
are evaluated for possible impairment, and impairment is recognized through the ALLL.

Policy for Charging Off Loans
A loan should be generally charged off at any point in time when it no longer can be considered a bankable asset, meaning
collected within the parameters of policy. A secured loan generally should be charged off to the estimated fair value of
the collateral, less costs to sell, no later than when it is 120 days past due as to principal or interest. An unsecured loan
generally should be charged off no later than when it is 180 days past due as to principal or interest. All charge-offs are
approved by the Chief Credit Officer.
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Indianapolis Stock
Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB system to hold common stock of its district FHLB according to
a predetermined formula. This investment is stated at cost, which represents redemption value, and may be pledged as
collateral for FHLB advances.
Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure and is recorded
at its fair value less estimated costs to sell. When property is acquired, it is recorded at its fair value at the date of acquisition
with any resulting write-down charged against the ALLL. Any subsequent deterioration of the property is charged directly
to operating expense. Costs relating to the development and improvement of other real estate owned are capitalized,
whereas costs relating to holding and maintaining the property are charged to expense as incurred.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives, which range from three to five years for software and equipment, ten years for
land improvements, and 39 years for buildings.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to help manage exposure to interest rate risk and the effects that
changes in interest rates may have on net income and the fair value of assets and liabilities. The Company enters into
forward contracts for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors and enters into interest rate lock
commitments with potential borrowers to fund specific mortgage loans that will be sold into the secondary market. The
forward contracts are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates resulting from
the Company’s commitment to fund the loans.
Each of these items are considered derivatives, but are not designated as accounting hedges, and are recorded at fair value
with changes in fair value reflected in noninterest income on the consolidated statements of income. The fair value of
derivative instruments with a positive fair value are reported in accrued income and other assets in the consolidated
balance sheets while derivative instruments with a negative fair value are reported in accrued expenses and other liabilities
in the consolidated balance sheets.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company records or discloses certain assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements,
defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are classified within one of three levels
in a valuation hierarchy. ASC Topic 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
F-12
First Internet Bancorp
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
Level 2 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 for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value
of the assets or liabilities
There were no transfers that occurred and, therefore, recognized, between any of the fair value hierarchy levels at
December 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the basis of such assets and liabilities as measured by tax laws and regulations.
Deferred income tax expense or benefit is based upon the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities from period to
period, subject to an ongoing assessment of realization of deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred
tax asset will not be realized.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal, Indiana, and other state jurisdictions.
ASC Topic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement
attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax
return. It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods,
disclosure and transition. The Company did not identify any uncertain tax positions that it believes should be recognized
in the consolidated financial statements.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share of common stock is based on the weighted-average number of basic shares and dilutive shares
outstanding during the year.

Stock Compensation
The Company has a stock-based compensation plan using the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718,
Compensation - Stock Compensation. The plan is described more fully in Note 10.
Comprehensive Income
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.
Reclassification adjustments have been determined for all components of other comprehensive income or loss reported
in the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity.
Statements of Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents are defined to include cash on-hand, noninterest and interest-bearing amounts due from other
banks and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods. The Company reports net cash flows
for customer loan transactions and deposit transactions.
Bank-Owned Life Insurance
Bank-owned life insurance policies are carried at their cash surrender value. The Company recognizes tax-free income
from the periodic increases in the cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested at least annually for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount,
goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill
value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2014 and 2013 financial statements to conform to the 2015 financial
statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.
Note 2:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At December 31, 2015, the Company’s interest-bearing cash accounts at other institutions did not exceed the limits for
full FDIC insurance coverage. However, approximately $1.9 million and $22.2 million of cash was held by the FHLB
of Indianapolis and Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, respectively, which are not federally insured.
The Company is required to maintain reserve funds in cash and/or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. The reserve
required at December 31, 2015 was $0.3 million.

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities pledged as collateral was $150.8
million. The Company pledged the securities for various types of transactions, including FHLB advances and derivative
financial instruments.
Certain investments in debt securities are reported in the consolidated financial statements at an amount less than their
historical cost. Total fair value of these investments at December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $166.1 million and $86.9 million,
which is approximately 78% and 63%, respectively, of the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio. These
declines primarily resulted from fluctuations in market interest rates after purchase.
Management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary.
Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be
reduced with the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) is
identified.
The following tables show the securities portfolio’s gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment

U.S. Government-Sponsored Agencies, Municipal Securities, and Corporate Securities
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in securities issued by U.S. Government-sponsored agencies,
municipal organizations and corporate entities were caused by interest rate changes. The contractual terms of those
investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments.
Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments, and it is not likely that the Company will be required to
sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider
those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015.

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities were caused by
interest rate changes. The Company expects to recover the amortized cost bases over the term of the securities. Because
the Company does not intend to sell the investments, and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the
investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those
investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015.
Other Securities
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in other securities were caused by the investment in the Community
Reinvestment Act Qualified Fund. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investment and it is not likely that
the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company does not
consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015.

Commercial and Industrial: Commercial and industrial loans’ source of repayment is primarily based on the identified
cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of
borrowers, however, may not be as expected, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Loans are
made for working capital, equipment purchases, or other purposes. Most commercial and industrial loans are secured by
the assets being financed and may incorporate a personal guarantee.
Owner-Occupied Commercial Real Estate: The primary source of repayment is the cash flow from the ongoing
operations and activities conducted by the borrower, or an affiliate of the borrower, who owns the property. This portfolio
is generally concentrated in the Central Indiana and greater Phoenix, Arizona markets and often times is secured by
manufacturing and service facilities, as well as office buildings.
Investor Commercial Real Estate: These loans are underwritten primarily based on the cash flow expected to be generated
from the property and are secondarily supported by the value of the real estate. These loans typically incorporate a personal
guarantee. This portfolio typically involves higher loan principal amounts, and the repayment of these loans is generally
dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing
the loan. Investor commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets,
changing industry dynamics, or the overall health of the general economy. The properties securing the Company’s investor
commercial real estate portfolio tend to be diverse in terms of property type and are typically located in the state of Indiana
and markets adjacent to Indiana. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on property
financial performance, collateral value, guarantor strength, and other risk grade criteria. As a general rule, the Company
avoids financing special use projects or properties outside of its designated market areas unless other underwriting factors
are present to help mitigate risk.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
Construction: Construction loans are secured by real estate and improvements and are made to assist in the construction
of new structures, which may include commercial (retail, industrial, office, multi-family) properties or single family
residential properties offered for sale by the builder. These loans generally finance a variety of project costs, including
land, site preparation, construction, closing and soft costs and interim financing needs. The cash flows of builders, while
initially predictable, may fluctuate with market conditions, and the value of the collateral securing these loans may be
subject to fluctuations based on general economic changes.
Single Tenant Lease Financing: These loans are made to property owners of real estate subject to long term lease
arrangements with single tenant operators. The real estate is typically operated by regionally, nationally or globally branded
businesses. The loans are underwritten based on the financial strength of the borrower, characteristics of the real estate,
cash flows generated from the lease arrangements and the financial strength of the tenant. Similar to the other loan
portfolios, management monitors and evaluates these loans based on borrower and tenant financial performance, collateral
value, industry trends and other risk grade criteria.
Residential Mortgage: With respect to residential loans that are secured by 1-4 family residences and are generally
owner occupied, the Company typically establishes a maximum loan-to-value ratio and requires private mortgage
insurance if that ratio is exceeded. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the financial circumstances of the
borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Repayment
can also be impacted by changes in residential property values. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller
individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers in geographically diverse locations throughout the
country.
Home Equity: Home equity loans and lines of credit are typically secured by a subordinate interest in 1-4 family residences.
The properties securing the Company's home equity portfolio are generally geographically diverse as the Company offers
these products on a nationwide basis. Repayment of home equity loans and lines of credit may be impacted by changes
in property values on residential properties and unemployment levels, among other economic conditions and financial
circumstances in the market.
Other Consumer: These loans primarily consist of consumer loans and credit cards. Consumer loans may be secured
by consumer assets such as horse trailers or recreational vehicles. Some consumer loans are unsecured, such as small
installment loans and certain lines of credit. Repayment of consumer loans is primarily dependent upon the personal
income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment
levels. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of
borrowers in geographically diverse locations throughout the country.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its commercial loans. Loans are graded on
a scale of 1 to 9. A description of the general characteristics of the nine risk grades is as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
“Pass” (Grades 1-5) - Higher quality loans that do not fit any of the other categories described below.
“Special Mention” (Grade 6) - Loans that possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserve
close attention.
“Substandard” (Grade 7) - Loans that possess a defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation
of the debt. Loans characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the
deficiencies are not corrected. Loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity
of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.
“Doubtful” (Grade 8) - Such loans have been placed on nonaccrual status and may be heavily dependent upon
collateral possessing a value that is difficult to determine or based upon some near-term event which lacks clear
certainty. These loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard; however, based on existing
conditions, these weaknesses make full collection of the principal balance highly improbable.
“Loss” (Grade 9) - Loans that are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them
as assets is not warranted.
The following tables present the credit risk profile of the Company’s commercial loan portfolio based on rating category
and payment activity as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of August 31, or whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. No events or changes in circumstances have
occurred since the August 31, 2015 annual impairment test that would suggest it was more likely than not goodwill
impairment existed.

FHLB. Mortgage loans pledged were approximately $186.4 million and $212.6 million as of December 31, 2015 and
2014, respectively, and the fair value of investment securities pledged to the FHLB was approximately $148.7 million
and $128.2 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company’s FHLB advances are scheduled to mature according to the following schedule:

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had a $50.0 million option-embedded advance that is scheduled to mature on
April 17, 2020. The advance will convert from a variable rate of 3-month LIBOR minus 0.75% to a fixed rate equal to
1.0525% on April 18, 2016. The FHLB has the option to put the advance prior to its scheduled maturity date. If the
advance is put by the FHLB, the Company has the option to request to convert the advance to an adjustable rate advance
of predetermined index for the remaining term to maturity, at the FHLB’s discretion.
As of December 31, 2015 the Company had a $40.0 million symmetrical fixed rate bullet advance that is scheduled to
mature on January 19, 2021. The terms of the advance allow the Company to terminate the advance prior to its scheduled
maturity date. If the Company elects to terminate the advance prior to its scheduled maturity date and the interest rate
for the advance is above market rates relative to an advance with a similar remaining term, the Company will be required
to pay a prepayment fee based on the mark-to-market adjustment of the advance. If the Company elects to terminate the
advance prior to its scheduled maturity date and the interest rate for the advance is below market rates relative to an
advance with a similar remaining term, the Company would be eligible for a prepayment credit and could realize a gain,
which is limited to 10% of the advance principal balance, when the advance is prepaid.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had a $15.0 million fixed rate advance that is scheduled to mature on September
2, 2025. The FHLB has a one-time option to put the advance on September 2, 2020. If the FHLB exercises its option to
put the advance, the advance will be prepayable without a fee at the Company’s option on the exercise date. If the
Company requests to convert the advance to an adjustable rate after the FHLB has put the advance, the Company may
prepay the advance without a fee on any subsequent quarterly reset date.
Note 9:
Subordinated Debt
In June 2013, the Company issued a subordinated debenture (the “debenture”) in the principal amount of $3.0 million.
The debenture bears a fixed interest rate of 8.00% per year, payable quarterly, and is scheduled to mature on June 28,
2021. The debenture may be repaid, without penalty, at any time after June 28, 2016. The debenture is intended to qualify
for treatment as Tier 2 capital under regulatory guidelines.

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
In connection with the debenture, the Company also issued a warrant to purchase up to 48,750 shares of common stock
at an initial per share exercise price equal to $19.33. The warrant became exercisable on June 28, 2014 and, unless
previously exercised, will expire on June 28, 2021. The Company has the right to force an exercise of the warrant after
the debenture has been repaid in full if the 20-day volume-weighted average price of a share of its common stock exceeds
$30.00.
The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to assign a fair value of $0.3 million to the warrant as of June
28, 2013. The following assumptions were used to value the warrant: a risk-free interest rate of 0.66% per the U.S. Treasury
yield curve in effect at the date of issuance; an expected dividend yield of 1.19% calculated using the dividend rate and
stock price at the date of the issuance; and an expected volatility of 34% based on the estimated volatility of the Company’s
stock over the expected term of the warrant, which is estimated to be three years.
In October 2015, the Company issued subordinated notes (the “Notes”) in the principal amount of $10.0 million. The
Notes bear a fixed interest rate of 6.4375% per year, payable quarterly, and are scheduled to mature on October 1, 2025.
The Notes may be repaid, without penalty, on any interest payment date on or after October 15, 2020. The Notes are
intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital under regulatory guidelines.

Benefit Plans
401(k) Plan
The Company has a 401(k) plan established for substantially all full-time employees, as defined in the plan. Employee
contributions are limited to the maximum established by the Internal Revenue Service on an annual basis. The Company
has elected to match contributions equal to 100% of the first 1% of employee deferrals and then 50% on deferrals over
1% up to a maximum of 6% of an individual’s total eligible salary, as defined in the plan. Employer-matching contributions
begin vesting after one year at a rate of 50% per year of employment and are fully vested after the completion of two
years of employment. Contributions totaled approximately $0.3 million in each of the twelve months ended December 31,
2015, 2014, and 2013.
Employment Agreement
The Company has entered into an employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer that provides for the continuation
of salary and certain benefits for a specified period of time under certain conditions. Under the terms of the agreement,
these payments could occur in the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreement, along with
other specific conditions.
2013 Equity Incentive Plan
The 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (“2013 Plan”) authorizes the issuance of up to 750,000 shares of the Company’s common
stock in the form of equity-based awards to employees, directors, and other eligible persons. Under the terms of the 2013
Plan, the pool of shares available for issuance may be used for available types of equity awards under the 2013 Plan,
which includes stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, stock unit awards, and other share-based
awards. All employees, consultants, and advisors of the Company or any subsidiary, as well as all non-employee directors
of the Company, are eligible to receive awards under the 2013 Plan.

Directors Deferred Stock Plan
Until January 1, 2014, the Company had a stock compensation plan for non-employee members of the Board of Directors
(“Directors Deferred Stock Plan”). The Company reserved 180,000 shares of common stock that could have been issued
pursuant to the Directors Deferred Stock Plan. The plan provided directors the option to elect to receive up to 100% of
their annual retainer in either common stock or deferred stock rights. Deferred stock rights were to be settled in common
stock following the end of the deferral period payable on the basis of one share of common stock for each deferred stock
right.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded $0.2 million of expense related to awards made from the
Directors Deferred Stock Plan. The Company recognized compensation expense ratably over the vesting period based
upon the fair value of the stock on the grant date. The Directors Deferred Stock Plan ended on December 31, 2013.

Related Party Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into transactions with various related parties. In management’s
opinion, such loans, other extensions of credit, and deposits were made in the ordinary course of business and were made
on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with other persons. Further, in management’s opinion, these loans did not involve more than normal risk of
collectability or present other unfavorable features.
Management evaluated related party loans and extensions of credit at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and deemed the
balances immaterial. Deposits from related parties held by the Company at December 31, 2015 and 2014 totaled $9.8
million and $13.7 million, respectively.

Note 13:
Regulatory Capital Requirements
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by state and federal
banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve
quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting
practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components,
risk weighting and other factors.
The Basel III Capital Rules became effective for the Company and the Bank on January 1, 2015, subject to a phase-in
period for certain provisions. Quantitative measures established by the Basel III Capital Rules to ensure capital adequacy
require the maintenance of minimum amounts and ratios of Common Equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and Total capital,
as defined in the regulations, to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to adjusted quarterly average assets (“Leverage
Ratio”).
When fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the Basel III Capital Rules will require the Company and the Bank to maintain: 1)
a minimum ratio of Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation
buffer” (resulting in a minimum ratio of Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 7.0% upon full
implementation); 2) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer
(resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% upon full implementation); 3) a minimum ratio of Total capital to
risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer (resulting in a minimum Total capital ratio of 10.5%
upon full implementation); and 4) a minimum Leverage Ratio of 4.0%.
The implementation of the capital conservation buffer will began on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and will phase
in over a four-year period increasing by increments of that amount on each subsequent January 1 until it reaches 2.5%
on January 1, 2019. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress.
Failure to maintain the minimum Common Equity Tier 1 ratio plus the capital conservation buffer will result in potential
restrictions on a banking institution’s ability to pay dividends, repurchase stock and/or pay discretionary compensation
to its employees.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASU Topic 820 also
specifies a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use
of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to
measure fair value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 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 for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value
of the assets or liabilities
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring
basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets
pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Securities
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation
hierarchy. Level 1 securities include highly liquid mutual funds. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values
are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.
Level 2 securities include U.S. Government-sponsored agencies, mortgage and asset-backed securities, state and
municipal securities, and certain corporate securities. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique widely used in the
banking industry to value investment securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific investment
securities but rather relying on the investment securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted investment securities.
F-32
First Internet Bancorp
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows. Discounted cash flows are calculated based off of the anticipated
future cash flows updated to incorporate loss severities. Rating agency and industry research reports as well as default
and deferral activity are reviewed and incorporated into the calculation. The Company did not own any securities classified
within Level 3 of the hierarchy as of December 31, 2015 or 2014.
Loans Held-for-Sale (mandatory pricing agreements)
The fair value of loans held-for-sale is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes
of that loan (Level 2).
Forward Contracts
The fair values of forward contracts on to-be-announced securities are determined using quoted prices in active markets,
or benchmarked thereto (Level 1).
Interest Rate Lock Commitments
The fair value of interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) are determined using the projected sale price of individual
loans based on changes in market interest rates, projected pull-through rates (the probability that an IRLC will ultimately
result in an originated loan), the reduction in the value of the applicant’s option due to the passage of time, and the
remaining origination costs to be incurred based on management’s estimate of market costs (Level 3).
The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities recognized in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in
which the fair value measurements fall at December 31, 2015 and 2014:

The following describes the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring
basis, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Impaired Loans (Collateral Dependent)
Loans for which it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest due according to contractual
terms are measured for impairment. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include estimating
fair value using the fair value of the collateral, less costs to sell, for collateral dependent loans.
If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment
is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor
to the value.

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when impairment is
determined using the fair value method.
There were no impaired loans that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2015 or 2014.

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets at amounts other than fair value:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For these instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Interest-Bearing Time Deposits
The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value.
Loans Held-For-Sale (best efforts pricing agreements)
The fair value of these loans approximates carrying value.
Loans Receivable
The fair value of loans receivable is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans
would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities.
Accrued Interest Receivable
The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value.
Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis Stock
The fair value approximates carrying value.
Deposits
The fair value of noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits, savings and money market accounts
approximates carrying value. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit and brokered deposits are estimated
using rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank
The fair value of fixed rate advances is estimated using rates currently offered for similar remaining maturities. The
carrying value of variable rate advances approximates fair value.
Subordinated Debt
The fair value of the Company’s subordinated debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current
borrowing rates for similar types of debt instruments.
Accrued Interest Payable
The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value.
Commitments
The fair value of commitments to extend credit are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with
similar maturities and interest rates. The Company determined that the fair value of commitments was zero based on the
contractual value of outstanding commitments at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
The following schedule includes the carrying value and estimated fair value of all financial assets and liabilities at

Mortgage Banking Activities
The Company’s residential real estate lending business originates mortgage loans for customers and sells a majority of
the originated loans into the secondary market. The Company hedges its mortgage banking pipeline by entering into
forward contracts for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors and entering into interest rate lock
commitments with potential borrowers to fund specific mortgage loans that will be sold into the secondary market. To
facilitate the hedging of the loans, the Company has elected the fair value option for loans originated and intended for
sale in the secondary market under mandatory pricing agreements. Changes in the fair value of loans held-for-sale, interest
rate lock commitments and forward contracts are recorded in the mortgage banking activities line item within noninterest
income. Refer to Note 17 for further information on derivative financial instruments.
During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, the Company originated mortgage loans held-for-sale of
$502.7 million, $409.7 million, and $741.1 million, respectively, and sold $509.4 million, $409.5 million, and $784.1
million of mortgage loans, respectively, into the secondary market.
The components of income from mortgage banking activities consist of the following:
Gain on loans sold
(Loss) gain resulting from the change in fair value of loans held-for-sale
Gain (loss) resulting from the change in fair value of derivatives
Net revenue from mortgage banking activities

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to help manage exposure to interest rate risk and the effects that
changes in interest rates may have on net income and the fair value of assets and liabilities. The Company enters into
forward contracts for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors and enters into IRLCs with potential
borrowers to fund specific mortgage loans that will be sold into the secondary market. The forward contracts are entered
into in order to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates resulting from the Company’s commitment to
fund the loans.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU” or “Update”) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying
the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (April 2015)
This Update is part of an initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards (the “Simplification Initiative”)
implemented by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The objective of the Simplification Initiative is to identify,
evaluate, and improve areas of GAAP for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the
usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs,
the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the
balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The
recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. This
Update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. This
Update will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption was
permitted. The Company adopted this Update during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and has included the
required disclosures in this annual report on Form 10-K.
Accounting Standards Update 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of Effective Date
(August 2015)
The amendments in this Update defer the effective date of Update 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Update 2014-09
provides a five-step model for revenue recognition that all industries will apply to recognize revenue when a customer
obtains control of a good or service. Public business entities should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period.
Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim
reporting periods within that reporting period. Adoption of this Update is not expected to have a significant effect on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement
- Period Adjustments (September 2015)
This Update is part of the Simplification Initiative. The amendments in this Update require that an acquirer recognize
adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which
the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments in this Update require that the acquirer record, in the same
period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if
any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the
acquisition date. The amendments in this Update require an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement
or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been
recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition
date. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years and should be implemented using the prospective method.
Adoption of this Update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement
of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (January 2016)
The amendments in this Update affect all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities. The amendments
in this Update supersede the guidance to classify equity securities with readily determinable fair values into different
categories (that is, trading or available-for-sale) and require equity securities (including other ownership interests, such
as partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures, and limited liability companies) to be measured at fair value with changes
in the fair value recognized through net income. An entity’s equity investments that are accounted for under the equity
method of accounting or result in consolidation of an investee are not included within the scope of this Update. The
amendments allow equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values to be remeasured at fair value
either upon the occurrence of an observable price change or upon identification of an impairment. The amendments also
require enhanced disclosures about those investments.
The amendments in this Update also simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily
determinable fair values by requiring assessment for impairment qualitatively at each reporting period. That impairment
assessment is similar to the qualitative assessment for long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets.
Upon determining that impairment exists, an entity should calculate the fair value of that investment and recognize as an
impairment in net income any amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the investment.
The amendments in this Update require public business entities that are required to disclose fair value of financial
instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet to measure that fair value using the exit price notion consistent
with Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. This change to GAAP eliminates the entry price method previously used by
some entities for disclosure purposes for some financial assets. Previously, GAAP permitted entities an option to measure
fair value in two different ways.
The amendments in this Update require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the
total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity
has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option. That presentation addresses
financial statement users’ feedback that presenting the total change in fair value of a liability in net income reduced the
decision usefulness of an entity’s net income when it had a deterioration in its credit worthiness. This amendment excludes
from net income gains or losses that the entity may not realize because those financial liabilities are not usually transferred
or settled at their fair values before maturity.
The amendments in this Update require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement
category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or in the accompanying
notes to the financial statements.
The amendments in this Update reduce diversity in current practice by clarifying that an entity should evaluate the need
for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s
other deferred tax assets. The feedback received by the Financial Accounting Standards Board indicated that there is
diversity in practice in that some entities evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to
available-for-sale securities separately from their other deferred tax assets.
For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years and should be implemented using the prospective method.
Adoption of this Update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (February 2016)
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board amended its standards with respect to the accounting for
leases. The amended standard serves to replace all current GAAP guidance on this topic and requires that an operating
lease be recognized by the lessee on the balance sheet as a “right-of-use” asset along with a corresponding liability
representing the rent obligation. Key aspects of current lessor accounting remain unchanged from existing guidance. This
standard is expected to result in an increase to assets and liabilities recognized and, therefore, increase risk-weighted
assets for regulatory capital purposes. The amended standard requires the use of the modified retrospective transition
approach for existing leases that have not expired before the date of initial application and will become effective for fiscal
years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Earlier application of the amended
standard is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amended guidance on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
