Long-term Debt
 
As part of the Company's Asset/Liability management strategy, management utilized a FHLB fixed borrowing product during the second quarter of 2011 when it obtained $25.0 million in borrowings with a two year maturity due March 18, 2013 and an interest rate of 1.01%. There was $25.0 million outstanding on this borrowing at December 31, 2012 which was collateralized by $42.2 million of loans of the Bank.

On June 15, 2000, the Company issued $5.0 million of 11% fixed rate Trust Capital Securities to Commerce Bancorp LLC through Trust I, a Delaware business trust subsidiary. The Trust Capital Securities evidenced a preferred ownership interest in the Trust, of which the Company owned 100% of the common equity. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company repurchased and retired the $5.0 million of Trust Capital Securities and incurred a $75,000 early repayment charge.
 
On September 28, 2001, the Company issued $8.0 million of 10% fixed rate Trust Capital Securities to Commerce Bancorp LLC through Trust II, a Delaware business trust subsidiary. The Trust Capital Securities evidenced a preferred ownership interest in Trust II of which the Company owned 100% of the common equity. The proceeds from the issuance of the Trust Capital Securities were invested in substantially similar Junior Subordinated Debt of the Company. The Company unconditionally guaranteed the Trust Capital Securities. Interest on the debt was payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The Trust Capital Securities were scheduled to mature on September 28, 2031. The Company had the option to redeem in whole or in part beginning on or after September 28, 2011 at a premium to the principal amount plus accrued interest, with the redemption price set to decline annually until September 2021, at which time the securities could be redeemed at 100% of the principal. During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company repurchased and retired the $8.0 million of Trust Capital Securities and incurred a $140,000 early repayment charge.
 
On September 29, 2006, the Company issued $15.0 million of 7.75% fixed rate Trust Capital Securities to TD Bank, N.A. through Trust III, a Delaware business trust subsidiary. The issuance of the Trust Capital Securities has similar properties as Trust II. The Trust Capital Securities evidence a preferred ownership interest in Trust III of which the Company owns 100% of the common equity. The proceeds from the issuance of the Trust Capital Securities were invested in substantially similar Junior Subordinated Debt of the Company. The Company unconditionally guarantees the Trust Capital Securities. Interest on the debt is payable quarterly with similar terms as in Trust II. The Trust Capital Securities are scheduled to mature on September 29, 2036. The Trust Capital Securities may be redeemed in whole or in part at the option of the Company on or after September 29, 2011 at 100% of the principal plus accrued interest, if any. All $15.0 million of the Trust Capital Securities qualifies as Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes.

The remaining $800,000 in long-term debt represents the Company's ownership interest in the one remaining nonbank subsidiary Trust.
