Goodwill relates to the 2010 City Bank acquisition and represents the excess of the total purchase price paid over the fair values of the assets acquired, net of the fair values of liabilities assumed.

The other intangible assets relate to the 2010 City Bank and North County Bank acquisitions and represent core deposits. The values of the core deposit intangible assets were determined by an analysis of the cost differential between the core deposits and alternative funding sources. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized to their estimated residual values over their respective estimated useful lives, and are also reviewed for impairment. The Company is amortizing its other intangible assets related to the City Bank and North County Bank acquisitions on an accelerated basis over an estimated nine year life and two year life, respectively. No impairment losses separate from the scheduled amortization have been recognized in the periods presented.

The Company conducted its annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment at December 31, 2013 and 2012. At both dates, in the first step of the goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that the fair value of the Company exceeded its carrying amount; therefore, no impairment was recognized. The significant assumptions and methodology utilized to test for goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2013 were consistent with those used at December 31, 2012.

The following table presents the expected amortization expense for other intangible assets:



(dollars in thousands)	Year	Expected amortization
	2014	$	366
	2015	293
	2016	220
	2017	146
	2018	73
	Thereafter	—
