11. Junior Subordinated Debentures:

In connection with the November 2005 acquisition of NWB Financial Corporation, the Company formed a wholly owned Delaware statutory business trust subsidiary, Pacific Continental Corporation Capital Trust (the “Trust”), which issued $8,248 of guaranteed undivided beneficial interests in the Company’s Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Trust Preferred Securities”). These debentures qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines. All of the common securities of the Trust are owned by the Company. The proceeds from the issuance of the common securities and the Trust Preferred Securities were used by the Trust to purchase $8,248 of junior subordinated debentures of the Company. The debentures, which represent the sole asset of the Trust, accrued and paid distributions quarterly at a fixed rate of 6.265 percent per annum of the stated liquidation value of $1 per capital security. At January 7, 2011, the interest rate changed to a variable rate of three-month LIBOR plus 135 basis points.

The Company has entered into contractual arrangements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee payment of (1) accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust Preferred Securities, (2) the redemption price with respect to any Trust Preferred Securities called for redemption by the Trust, and (3) payments due upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up, or liquidation of the Trust. The Trust Preferred Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the debentures on January 7, 2036, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the debentures purchased by the Trust in whole or in part, on or after, January 7, 2011. As specified in the indenture, if the debentures are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued interest. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, the Company recognized net interest expense of $151, $136, and $510, respectively, related to the Trust Preferred Securities.
