The held-to-maturity TRUPS had a weighted average term to maturity of 21.2 years at September 30, 2013.  At September 30, 2013, MBS available-for-sale (which included pass-through MBS issued by GSEs, CMOs issued by GSEs, one private issuer pass through MBS and one private issuer CMO) possessed a weighted average contractual maturity of 16.9 years and a weighted average estimated duration of 1.3 years.  There were no sales of either investment securities held-to-maturity or MBS available-for-sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 or 2012.

There were no sales of investment securities available-for-sale during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  Proceeds from the sales of investment securities available-for-sale totaled $366 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  A net gain of $110 was recognized on these sales.  Proceeds from the sales of investment securities available-for-sale totaled $313 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  A net gain of $44 was recognized on these sales.

As of each reporting period through September 30, 2013, the Company has applied the protocol established by ASC 320-10-65 ("ASC 320-10-65") in order to determine whether OTTI existed for its TRUPS and/or to measure, for TRUPS that have been determined to be other than temporarily impaired, the credit related and non-credit related components of OTTI.  As of September 30, 2013,
five TRUPS were determined to meet the criteria for OTTI based upon this analysis.  At September 30, 2013, these five securities had credit ratings ranging from "C" to "Caa3."
The following table provides a reconciliation of the pre-tax OTTI charges recognized on the Company's TRUPS:

(1)    At September 30, 2013, the recorded balance of these securities was $3,840.  This balance reflected the remaining unrealized loss of $1,138 that was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss on September 1, 2008 (the day these securities were transferred from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity).  In accordance with both ASC 320-10-35-17 and 320-10-65, this unrealized loss is currently being amortized over the remaining estimated life of these securities.

TRUPS That Have Maintained an Unrealized Holding Loss for 12 or More Consecutive Months

At September 30, 2013, impairment of two of the TRUPS, with an amortized cost of $5,000, was deemed temporary.  These securities remained in an unrealized loss position for 12 or more consecutive months, and their cumulative unrealized loss was $1,315 at September 30, 2013, reflecting both illiquidity in the marketplace and concerns over future bank failures.  At September 30, 2013, both of these securities had ratings ranging from "BB-" to "A."  Despite both the significant decline in market value and the duration of their impairment, management believed that the unrealized losses on these securities at September 30, 2013 were temporary, and that the full value of the investments would be realized once the market dislocations have been removed, or as the securities continued to make their contractual payments of principal and interest.  In making this determination, management considered the following:

    Based upon an internal review of the collateral backing the TRUPS portfolio, which accounted for current and prospective deferrals, the securities could reasonably be expected to continue making all contractual payments
   The Company had the intent and ability to hold these securities until they fully recover their impairment, evidenced by the election to reclassify them as held-to-maturity in 2008
 
 
    There were no cash or working capital requirements nor contractual or regulatory obligations that would compel the Company to sell these securities prior to their forecasted recovery or maturity
    Both securities have a pool of underlying issuers comprised primarily of banks
    Neither of the securities have exposure to real estate investment trust issued debt (which has experienced high default
rates)
    Both securities feature either a mandatory auction or a de-leveraging mechanism that could result in principal repayments to the Bank prior to the stated maturity of the security
    Both securities are adequately collateralized
