Preferred Stock [Abstract]

Preferred Stock

Note 15: Preferred Stock

During 2009, the Company raised $5,000,000 through a private placement of cumulative preferred stock. From the proceeds, $2,500,000 was contributed to the Bank. The preferred stock carries a liquidation value of $1,000 per share and pays dividends quarterly to shareholders at a rate of 7.25% per annum for the first five years. After the fifth year, the rate increases to 9% per annum and the Company has the option to redeem the preferred stock in whole or part at a price equal to the sum of the liquidation amount per share and any accrued and unpaid dividends, regardless of whether any dividends are actually declared.
