NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Company owns a 100% interest in Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC ("RML"), the parent company of Residential Mortgage, LLC ("Residential Mortgage") and a 50.1% interest in Northrim Benefits Group, LLC ("NBG") and consolidates their balance sheets and income statements into its financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to maintain consistency with the current year with no impact on net income or total shareholders’ equity. The Company determined that it operates in two primary operating segments: Community Banking and Home Mortgage Lending. Prior to December 2014, the Company operated in a single segment: Community Banking. The Company has evaluated events and transactions through May 8, 2015 for potential recognition or disclosure. Operating results for the interim period ended March 31, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2015. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. ASU 2014-01 permits an entity to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and should be applied prospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2014-01 in its consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2015. As a result, amortization expense related to the Company's investments in low income housing tax credit partnerships has been included in the line item entitled "Provision for income taxes" in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented.

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). The amendments to the Codification in ASU 2015-02 affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. The amendments in this update affect the following areas: 1) the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination, 2) evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest, 3) the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination, and 4) certain investment funds. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments to the Codification in ASU 2015-03 identify, evaluate, and improve areas of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

3. Business Combinations

Alaska Pacific Bancshares, Inc.

On April 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Alaska Pacific Bancshares, Inc. ("Alaska Pacific") for a total purchase price of $13.9 million, which was comprised of the issuance of 290,212 shares of the Company’s common stock (at a volume weighted average closing price of $25.66 per share) and $6.4 million in cash. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the April 1, 2014 acquisition date. Estimated fair values recorded in the transaction are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's geographic footprint in Alaska.

The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of a bargain purchase gain of $170,000 and a core deposit intangible of $623,000, or 0.5% of core deposits. The bargain purchase gain represents the excess of the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired in excess of the purchase price and is included in Other Income in the Consolidated Statements of Income in this Form 10-Q. This acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase gain primarily due to the inclusion of certain adjustments to the purchase price for potential risks identified by the Company during the due diligence and price negotiation stages of the acquisition that were concluded in October of 2013. The Company has concluded that the potential risks identified at that time do not represent a liability to the Company and, accordingly, they have not been allocated any value in the application of the acquisition method of accounting.

A summary of the net assets acquired and the estimated fair value adjustments of Alaska Pacific are presented below:  

	Alaska Pacific
(In Thousands)	April 1, 2014
Cost basis net assets		$14,733
Cash payment made	(6,423		)

Fair value of purchased non-credit impaired loans		$134,533

Alaska Pacific purchased loans subject to the requirements of FASB ASC  310-30 Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The Company identified eighteen purchased credit impaired loans as of April 1, 2014. This group of loans consists primarily of commercial and commercial real estate loans, and unlike a pool of consumer mortgages, it is not practicable for the Company to analyze the accretable yield of these loans. As such, the Company has elected the cost recovery method of income recognition for these loans, and thus no accretable difference has been identified for these loans.

Purchased credit impaired loans at acquisition are presented below:

(In Thousands)	April 1, 2014
Contractually required principal payments		$7,553
Nonaccretable difference	(3,654		)
Fair value of purchased credit impaired loans		$3,899

The acquisition of Alaska Pacific is not considered significant to the Company’s financial statements. The operations of Alaska Pacific are included in our operating results from April 1, 2014, and we estimate that these operations added revenue of $1.9 million, non-interest expense of $1.5 million, and net income of $393,000, before taxes, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Alaska Pacific’s results of operations prior to the acquisition are not included in our operating results. Additionally, merger-related costs of $480,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 were incurred and expensed in connection with the acquisition of Alaska Pacific and recognized within the merger and acquisition expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 as if the acquisition of Alaska Pacific had occurred on January 1, 2014. The proforma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2014.

Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC

On December 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of 76.5% of the equity interest in RML, the parent company of Residential Mortgage, in a cash transaction valued at $29.5 million, resulting in RML becoming an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's presence in the mortgage lending business in Alaska. The fair value of the Company's equity interest in RML immediately prior to the acquisition was $9.0 million. The Company recorded a $3.0 million gain in the fourth quarter of 2014 as a result of remeasuring the Company's equity interest in RML immediately prior to the acquisition, which was included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income in the line item entitled "Gain on purchase of mortgage affiliate". The Company utilized a market value approach to value its equity interest in RML which included analysis of current trading values and historical acquisition multiples of comparable mortgage companies. The consideration transferred or transferable to the former owners of RML and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the December 1, 2014 acquisition date. Estimated fair values recorded in the transaction are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the amount of $14.8 million and a trade name intangible of $950,000. RML holds a 30% equity interest in Homestate Mortgage LLC.

The former owners of RML (the "sellers") will receive additional cash proceeds (the "earn-out" payments) based on the adjusted pretax earnings of RML for each of the twelve months periods ending November 30, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The Company recorded a $7.3 million liability as of December 1, 2014 as part of its purchase accounting for future earn-out payments. Per the purchase agreement, the earn-out payments are calculated as follows:

First tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $1,000,000 and less than or equal to $2,000,000	Payment will be calculated as product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings times 40%
Second tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $2,000,000 and less than or equal to $3,000,000	The first tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $2,000,000 and less than $3,000,000 times 50%
Third tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $3,000,000 and less than or equal to $4,000,000	The first tier plus the second tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $3,000,000 and less than $4,000,000 times 70%
Fourth tier earn- out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $4,000,000 and less than or equal to $6,000,000	The first, second and third tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $4,000,000 and less than $6,000,000 times 85%
Fifth tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $6,000,000	The first, second, third and fourth tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $6,000,000 times 55%

The purchase agreement provides for these earn-out payments as a portion of the purchase price to be paid to the sellers in future periods, contingent on future events. Therefore we included an estimate of the acquisition-date fair value of the contingent consideration of $7.3 million as part of the cost of the combination. The accounting treatment of the contingent consideration to be paid to those of the sellers who continue employment with the Company was evaluated to determine whether the amounts represent purchase consideration or a separate transaction, such as post-transaction employee compensation. Factors evaluated require significant judgment and include, among other factors; consideration of the terms of continuing employment, levels of post-transaction compensation, ownership interest of the sellers/employees, linkage of the contingent consideration to the transaction date combination valuation, and any other agreements or matters related to the transaction.

Based on an evaluation of the factors surrounding the transaction and the terms of the purchase agreement, the amount due under the earn-out provision was accounted for as acquisition consideration. We concluded that the contingent consideration to be paid to the sellers/employees was a significant component of the transaction date valuation of the acquired business. The calculation of the contingent payment was based upon factors established at the date of the transaction to be paid upon meeting the established earnings criteria of RML. The post transaction employment arrangements of the continuing employees are at market rates, and the formula for determining the contingent consideration is consistent with the business valuation methodologies, based upon a multiplier of earnings recognized from RML for five twelve month periods following the acquisition.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded an adjustment to increase the contingent liability by $1.5 million. The increase in the contingent liability resulted from the excess of RML's pretax income from December 1, 2014 through the end of the first quarter of 2015 over and above estimates made at the close of the purchase of RML. The adjustment to the contingent liability for estimated future earn-out payments is recorded in the line item titled "Change in fair value, RML earn-out liability" in other operating expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The total contingent liability as of March 31, 2015 is $8.8 million.

There were fourteen and twenty-nine available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, that have been in a loss position for less than twelve months. There were no securities as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 that have been in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve months.  The contractual terms of the investments in a loss position do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell, nor is it required to sell these investments until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

At March 31, 2015, $56.3 million in securities, or 22%, of the investment portfolio was pledged for deposits and borrowings, as compared to $54.1 million, or 19%, at December 31, 2014. We held no securities of any single issuer (other than government sponsored entities) that exceeded 10% of our shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The amortized cost and fair values of debt securities at March 31, 2015, are distributed by contractual maturity as shown below.  Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.  Although preferred stock has no stated maturity, it is aggregated in the calculation of weighted average yields presented below in the category of investments that mature in ten years or more.

Loans are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of charge-offs, unamortized fees and direct loan origination costs.  Loan balances are charged-off to the allowance for loan losses ("Allowance") when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely.  Interest income on loans is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding except for loans in a nonaccrual status.  All classes of loans are placed on nonaccrual and considered impaired when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the interest or principal.  Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans are directly applied to the principal balance.  Generally, a loan may be returned to accrual status when the delinquent principal and interest is brought current in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement.  Additionally, certain ongoing performance criteria, which generally includes a performance period of six months, must be met in order for a loan to be returned to accrual status.  Loans are reported as past due when installment payments, interest payments, or maturity payments are past due based on contractual terms.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $4.8 million and  $4.7 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Nonaccrual loans at the periods indicated, by segment, are presented below:

The Company considers a loan to be impaired when it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Once a loan is determined to be impaired, the impairment is measured based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except that if the loan is collateral dependent, the impairment is measured by using the fair value of the loan’s collateral.  Nonperforming loans greater than $50,000 are individually evaluated for impairment based upon the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, and payment record, and the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors.

20

At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be impaired was $12.8 million and $11.3 million, respectively.  The following table presents information about impaired loans by class as of the periods indicated:

As described in Note 3 above, the Company acquired 18 purchased credit impaired loans from Alaska Pacific on April 1, 2014 subject to the requirements of FASB ASC  310-30 Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. This group of loans consists primarily of commercial and commercial real estate loans, and unlike a pool of consumer mortgages, it is not practicable for the Company to analyze the accretable yield of these loans. As such, the Company has elected the cost recovery method of income recognition for these loans, and thus no accretable difference has been identified for these loans. At the acquisition date, April 1, 2014, the fair value of this group of loans was $3.9 million. The carrying value of these loans as of March 31, 2015 is $2.8 million.

Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) totaled $9.0 million and  $7.7 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.  A TDR is a loan to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that the Company is granting the borrower a concession that it would not grant otherwise.  The Company has granted a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications.  The modifications granted can generally be described in the following categories:

Rate Modification:  A modification in which the interest rate is changed.

Term Modification:  A modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments, or frequency of payments is changed.

Payment Modification:  A modification in which the dollar amount of the payment is changed, or in which a loan is converted to interest only payments for a period of time is included in this category.

Combination Modification:  Any other type of modification, including the use of multiple categories above. 

AQR pass graded loans included above in the impaired loan data are loans classified as TDRs. By definition, TDRs are considered impaired loans. All of the Company's TDRs are included in impaired loans.

The following table presents newly restructured loans that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015:

The Company had no commitments to extend additional credit to borrowers whose terms have been modified in TDRs.

24

There were no charge offs in the three months ended March 31, 2015 on loans that were later classified as TDRs.

All TDRs are also classified as impaired loans and are included in the loans individually evaluated for impairment in the calculation of the Allowance. There were two TDRs with a total recorded investment of $1.4 million and a specific impairment amount totaling $215,000 at March 31, 2015 and no TDRs with specific impairment at December 31, 2014, respectively.

The loans in the following table are past due, and they are nonaccrual loans. The following table presents TDRs that occurred during the last twelve months that subsequently defaulted, for the periods ending March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

9. Purchased Receivables

We purchase accounts receivable from our business customers and provide them with short-term working capital.  We provide this service to our customers in Alaska and in Washington and the greater west coast through Northrim Funding Services.  Our purchased receivable activity is guided by policies that outline risk management, documentation, and approval limits.  The policies are reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors.

Purchased receivables are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of a reserve for anticipated losses that have not yet been identified, and have a maturity of less than one year.    Purchased receivable balances are charged against this reserve when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely.  Management evaluates the adequacy of the reserve for purchased receivable losses based on historical loss experience by segment and class of receivable and its assessment of current economic conditions.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company has one segment and class of purchased receivables.  There were no purchased receivables past due at March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014, respectively, and there were no restructured purchased receivables at March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

Income on purchased receivables is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding using an effective interest method except when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the income or principal.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company is accruing income on all purchased receivable balances outstanding.

The following table summarizes the components of net purchased receivables for the periods indicated:

(In Thousands)	March 31, 2015			December 31, 2014
Purchased receivables		$15,597			$15,543
Reserve for purchased receivable losses	(265		)	(289		)
Total		$15,332			$15,254

The following table sets forth information regarding changes in the purchased receivable reserve for the three month periods ending March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively: 

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Balance at end of period		$265			$236

The Company did not record any charge-offs in the first three months of 2015 or 2014, respectively.

10. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company acquired Alaska Pacific on April 1, 2014. The Company did not record goodwill related to the acquisition of Alaska Pacific. The Company recorded a core deposit intangible of $623,000 related to deposits acquired from Alaska Pacific that will be amortized over its estimated useful life of ten years using an accelerated method. See Note 3 above for further discussion of this transaction.

The Company acquired the remaining 76.5% of RML on December 1, 2014. The Company recorded $14.8 million of goodwill and $950,000 of trade name intangible as part of the acquisition of RML. These assets have indefinite useful lives and are not amortized. See Note 3 above for further discussion of this transaction.

The Company performs goodwill impairment testing annually in accordance with the policy described in Note 1 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  There was no indication of impairment as of

28

March 31, 2015. The Company continues to monitor the Company’s goodwill for potential impairment on an ongoing basis. No assurance can be given that there will not be an impairment charge to earnings during 2015 for goodwill impairment, if, for example, our stock price declines and trades at a significant discount to its book value, although there are many qualitative and quantitative factors that we analyze in determining the impairment of goodwill.        

11.  Deposit Activities

Total deposits at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $1.2 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. The only deposit category with stated maturity dates is certificates of deposit. At March 31, 2015, the Company had $147.3 million in certificates of deposit as compared to certificates of deposit of $142.2 million at December 31, 2014. At March 31, 2015, $75.1 million, or 51%, of the Company’s certificates of deposits are scheduled to mature over the next 12 months as compared to $81.9 million, or 58%, of total certificates of deposit at December 31, 2014.

12.  Derivatives

The Company enters into commercial loan interest rate swap agreements in order to provide commercial loan customers the ability to convert from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these agreements, the Company enters into a variable-rate loan agreement with a customer in addition to a swap agreement that effectively converts the customer’s variable rate loan into a fixed rate. The Company then simultaneously enters into a corresponding swap agreement with a third party financial institution (“counterparty”) in order to offset its exposure on the fixed component of the customer’s interest rate swap. The Company has an agreement with its counterparty that contains a provision that provides that if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreement. This agreement also requires that the Company and the counterparty collateralize any fair value shortfalls that exceed $250,000 with eligible collateral, which includes cash and securities backed with the full faith and credit of the federal government. Similarly, the Company could be required to settle its obligations under the agreement if specific regulatory events occur, such as if the Company were issued a prompt corrective action directive or a cease and desist order, or if certain regulatory ratios fall below specified levels. The Company pledged $262,000 and zero in available for sale securities to collateralize fair value shortfalls on interest rate swap agreements as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The interest rate swap agreements with our customers and the counterparty are not designated as hedging instruments under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB ASC 815, rather they are accounted for as free standing derivatives with changes in fair value reported in income. The Company had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $23.0 million and $23.6 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. At March 31, 2015, the notional amount of interest rate swaps is made up of two swaps totaling $11.5 million, a variable to fixed rate swap to a commercial loan customer and two swaps totaling $11.5 million fixed to variable rate swap with a counterparty. Changes in fair value from these four interest rate swaps offset each other in the first quarter of 2015. The Company did not recognize any fee income related to interest rate swaps in the three month periods ending March 31, 2015 or 2014, respectively. Interest rate swap income is recorded in other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company also uses derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in the fair values of interest rate lock commitments. None of the Company’s derivatives are designated as hedging instruments. Rather, they are accounted for as free-standing derivatives, or economic hedges, with changes in the fair value of the derivatives reported in income. The Company primarily utilizes forward interest rate contracts in its derivative risk management strategy.

RML enters into commitments to originate residential mortgage loans, and it enters into forward delivery contracts to sell mortgage-backed securities to broker/dealers at specific prices and dates in order to hedge the interest rate risk in its residential mortgage loan commitments. Market risk with respect to commitments to originate loans arises from changes in the value of contractual positions due to changes in interest rates. RML had commitments to originate mortgage loans held for sale totaling$81.2 million and $39.6 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Changes in the value of RML's interest rate derivatives are recorded in the mortgage banking income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

13.  Stock Incentive Plan

The Company adopted the 2014 Stock Option Plan (“2014 Plan”) following shareholder approval of the 2014 Plan at the 2014 Annual Meeting.  Subsequent to the adoption of the 2014 Plan, no additional grants may be issued under the prior plans.  The 2014 Plan provides for grants of up to 350,000 shares.

Stock Options:  Under the 2014 Plan and previous plans, certain key employees have been granted the option to purchase set amounts of common stock at the market price on the day the option was granted.  Optionees, at their own discretion, may cover the cost of exercise through the exchange at the then fair value of already owned shares of the Company’s stock.  Options are granted for a 10-year period and vest on a pro-rata basis over the initial three years from grant.

The Company measures the fair value of each stock option at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized $22,000 and $16,000, respectively, in stock option compensation expense as a component of salaries and other personnel expense.

There were no exercises of stock options in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  

There were no stock options granted in the first quarter of 2015.

Restricted Stock Units:  The Company grants restricted stock units to certain key employees periodically.  Recipients of restricted stock units do not pay any cash consideration to the Company for the shares and receive all dividends with respect to such shares when the shares vest. Restricted stock units cliff vest at the end of a three-year time period. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized $96,000 and $91,000, respectively, in restricted stock unit compensation expense as a component of salaries and other personnel expense.

There were no restricted stock units granted in the first quarter of 2015.

14.  Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

30

• Level 1:  Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange.  Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2:  Valuation is based upon quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

• Level 3:  Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market.  These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimation of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value disclosures.  All financial instruments are held for other than trading purposes.

Cash and cash equivalents: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet represent their fair values.

Investment securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available.  If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.  Investments in Federal Home Loan Bank stock are recorded at cost, which also represents fair value.

Loans held for sale:  Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet approximate their fair values.

Loans:  Fair values were generally determined by discounting both principal and interest cash flows on pools of loans expected to be collected using a discount rate for similar instruments with adjustments that the Company believes a market participant would consider in determining fair value. The Company estimates the cash flows expected to be collected using internal credit risk, interest rate and prepayment risk models that incorporate the Corporation’s best estimate of current key assumptions, such as default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds for the life of the loan. The carrying value of loans is presented net of the Allowance (see Note 8).  Impaired loans are carried at fair value.  Specific valuation allowances are included in the Allowance.

Purchased receivables: Fair values for purchased receivables are based on their carrying amounts due to their short duration and repricing frequency.  Generally, purchased receivables have a duration of less than one year.

Mortgage servicing rights: MSR are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are classified as Level 3. In order to determine the fair value of MSRs, the present value of net expected future cash flows is estimated. Assumptions used include market discount rates, anticipated prepayment speeds, escrow calculations, delinquency rates, and ancillary fee income net of servicing costs. The model assumptions are also compared to publicly filed information from several large MSR holders, as available.

Accrued interest receivable: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet represent their fair values.

Deposits: The fair value for deposits with stated maturities was determined by discounting contractual cash flows using current market rates for instruments with similar maturities. For deposits with no stated maturities, the carrying value was considered to approximate fair value and does not take into account the significant value of the cost advantage and stability of the Company's long-term relationships with depositors.

Accrued interest payable: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet represent their fair values.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements: Fair values for securities sold under repurchase agreements are based on their carrying amounts due to their short duration and repricing frequency.

Borrowings: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amount of short-term borrowings reported in the balance sheet approximate the fair value.  Fair values for long-term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies currently offered interest rates to a schedule of aggregate expected monthly payments.

31

Contingent liability, earn-out payments related to acquisition of RML: The contingent liability for estimated earn-out payments included as a portion of the purchase price for RML is recorded in the balance sheet at it estimated fair value, and fair value adjustments to the liability are reported in other operating expense. The fair value for this contingent liability is estimated based on management's assessment of expected pre-tax income at RML over the remaining earn out period. These cash flows are discounted to present value using the appropriate FHLB borrowing rate, Inputs to this assessment include the general economic conditions in our markets that impact mortgage loan originations, current and anticipated trends in local market demand for mortgage, including interest rates, and RML's estimated market share.

Junior subordinated debentures: Fair value adjustments for junior subordinated debentures are based on discounted cash flows to maturity using current interest rates for similar financial instruments.  Management utilized a market approach to determine the appropriate discount rate for junior subordinated debentures.

Derivative instruments: The fair value of the interest rate lock commitments are estimated using quoted or published market prices for similar instruments, adjusted for factors such as pull-through rate assumptions based on historical information, where appropriate. The pull-through rate assumptions are considered Level 3 valuation inputs and are significant to the interest rate lock commitment valuation; as such, the interest rate lock commitment derivatives are classified as Level 3. Interest rate contracts are valued in a model, which uses as its basis a discounted cash flow technique incorporating credit valuation adjustments to reflect nonperformance risk in the measurement of fair value. Although the Bank has determined that the majority of inputs used to value its interest rate derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of March 31, 2015, the Bank has assessed the significance of the impact of these adjustments on the overall valuation of its interest rate positions and has determined that the they are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate derivatives. As a result, the Bank has classified its interest rate derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Assets subject to nonrecurring adjustment to fair value: The Company is also required to measure certain assets such as equity method investments, goodwill, intangible assets, impaired loans, and other real estate owned (“OREO”) at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP.  Any nonrecurring adjustments to fair value usually result from the write down of individual assets.

The Company uses either in-house evaluations or external appraisals to estimate the fair value of OREO and impaired loans as of each reporting date.  In-house appraisals are considered Level 3 inputs and external appraisals are considered Level 2 inputs. The Company’s determination of which method to use is based upon several factors.  The Company takes into account compliance with legal and regulatory guidelines, the amount of the loan, the size of the assets, the location and type of property to be valued and how critical the timing of completion of the analysis is to the assessment of value.  Those factors are balanced with the level of internal expertise, internal experience and market information available, versus external expertise available such as qualified appraisers, brokers, auctioneers and equipment specialists.

The Company uses external sources to estimate fair value for projects that are not fully constructed as of the date of valuation.  These projects are generally valued as if complete, with an appropriate allowance for cost of completion, including contingencies developed from external sources such as vendors, engineers and contractors.  The Company believes that recording other real estate owned that is not fully constructed based on as if complete values is more appropriate than recording other real estate owned that is not fully constructed using as is values.  We concluded that as-is-complete values are appropriate for these types of projects based on the accounting guidance for capitalization of project costs and subsequent measurement of the value of real estate.  GAAP specifically states that estimates and cost allocations must be reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reallocated based on revised estimates.  The Company adjusts the carrying value of other real estate owned in accordance with this guidance for increases in estimated cost to complete that exceed the fair value of the real estate at the end of each reporting period.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit: The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties.  For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates.  The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligation with the counterparties at the reporting date.

Limitations: Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument.  These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.  Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current

32

economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors.  These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

15.  Segment Information

The Company operates two primary segments: Community Banking and Home Mortgage Lending. The Community Banking segment's principal business focus is the offering of loan and deposit products to business and consumer customers in its primary market areas. As of March 31, 2015, the Community Banking segment operated 14 branches throughout Alaska. The Home Mortgage Lending segment's principal business focus is the origination and sale of mortgage loans for 1-4 family residential properties.

Prior to December 1, 2014, Home Mortgage Lending income was limited to equity in earnings from RML.

Summarized financial information for the Company's reportable segments and the reconciliation to the consolidated financial results is shown in the following tables:

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and the notes thereto presented elsewhere in this report and with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Except as otherwise noted, references to "we", "our", "us" or "the Company" refer to Northrim BanCorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries that are consolidated for financial reporting purposes.

Note Regarding Forward Looking-Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined for purposes of Section 21D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements describe management’s expectations about future events and developments such as future operating results, growth in loans and deposits, continued success of the Company’s style of banking, and the strength of the local economy. All statements other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position, made in this report are forward-looking. We use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions in part to help identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current plans and expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management’s expectations, and those variations may be both material and adverse. Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from our expectations as indicated in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include: the general condition of, and changes in, the Alaska economy; factors that impact our net interest margin; our ability to maintain asset quality and expand our market share or net interest margin; expected cost savings, synergies and other related benefits from the merger of Northrim with Alaska Pacific might not be realized within the expected timeframe and costs or difficulties relating to the integration might be greater than expected; financial benefits from the acquisition of Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC might not be realized within the expected timeframes and costs or difficulties relating to integration matters might be greater than expected; and our ability to execute our business plan. Further, actual results may be affected by competition on price and other factors with other financial institutions; customer acceptance of new products and services; the regulatory environment in which we operate; and general trends in the local, regional and national banking industry and economy. Many of these risks, as well as other risks that may have a material adverse impact on our operations and business, are identified in Part II. Item 1A Risk Factors of this report, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, you should be aware that these factors are not an exhaustive list, and you should not assume these are the only factors that may cause our actual results to differ from our expectations. In addition, you should note that we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements or the uncertainties that may adversely impact those statements, other than as required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances.  We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and on our results of operations for the reporting periods.

The accounting policies that involve significant estimates and assumptions by management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, are considered critical accounting policies. The Company’s critical accounting policies include those that address the accounting for the allowance for loan losses ("Allowance"), valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, and the valuation of other real estate owned.  These critical accounting policies are further described in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Management has applied its critical accounting policies and estimation methods consistently in all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

Update on Economic Conditions

Despite the long-term concerns of the impact of low oil prices on energy dependent states, including Alaska, the Company believes that our economy is showing resilience and stability in the early stages of this oil price cycle. Unlike most states in the nation, Alaska state government has built $66 billion in reserves, of which $14 billion can be used to finance expected state government funding gaps. Employment in most sectors of the state, with the exception of state workers, has been stable, and we are continuing to see projects already underway on the North Slope progressing. Alaska's conventional oil is believed to have a longer term investment cycle that is less impacted by short to mid-term swings in energy prices. We estimate that approximately 8% of portfolio loans as of March 31, 2015, have direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska.

Highlights and Summary of Performance - First Quarter of 2015

The acquisitions of Alaska Pacific Bancshares, Inc. ("Alaska Pacific") and Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC ("RML"), that were completed in 2014 contributed to the increase in net income in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, along with organic growth in loans and deposits of 9% and 4%, respectively, in our core banking operations. These acquisitions resulted in increases in the Company's net interest income, other operating income, other operating expense, and the provision for loan losses. Additionally, management determined that as a result of the acquisition of RML, the Company now operates two business segments: Community Banking and Home Mortgage Lending, with RML's operations falling under the Home Mortgage Lending segment. See Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report for further discussion on our business segments and results of operations for each such business segment.

Activity at RML is historically slow in the first quarter of the year, but increased mortgage originations generated increased net income at RML in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014. The Company believes that lower fees for Federal Housing Authority borrowers, combined with continuing low mortgage rates contributed to the increased mortgage origination activity during this period. Other operating expense also increased in the first quarter of 2015 due to a $1.5 million adjustment to the contingent liability earn-out payments related to the RML acquisition. The increase in the contingent liability resulted from the excess of RML's pretax income from December 1, 2014 through the end of the first quarter of 2015 over and above estimates made at the close of the purchase of RML.

• Total revenues, which include net interest income plus other operating income, were $24.2 million in the first quarter of 2015, a 73% increase from total revenues of $14.0 million in the first quarter a year ago.

• Net interest income increased to $13.6 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $11.2 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

• Other operating income, which includes revenues from our financial services affiliates, service charges, electronic banking, and gain on sale from premises and equipment, were 44% of total revenues in the first quarter of 2015, as compared to 20% in the first quarter a year ago.

• Northrim paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18 per share in March of 2015, compared to the $0.17 per share dividend paid in March 2014. The dividend provides a yield of approximately 2.9% at current market share prices.

• Tangible book value¹ was $20.92 per share at March 31, 2015 as compared to $20.48 per share at December 31, 2014. Tangible book value is a non-GAAP ratio that represents total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets divided by the number of shares outstanding. Although we believe this non-

38

GAAP financial measure is frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of companies in the banking industry, there are limitations, it is not required to be uniformly applied, and it is not audited. The most comparable GAAP measure of book value consists of total shareholders’ equity divided by the number of shares outstanding. Book value per share was $24.42 at March 31, 2015, compared to $23.99 at December 31, 2014.

• Average portfolio loans increased 1% to $946.1 million for the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $938.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, reflecting organic loan growth.

• The Company remains well-capitalized with Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets at March 31, 2015, of 12.71%, compared to 13.06% at December 31, 2014. The decrease in Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets at March 31, 2015 is a result of the new BASEL III requirements.

• Tangible common equity to tangible assets² was 10.07% at March 31, 2015, compared to 9.85% December 31, 2014. Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP ratio that represents total equity less goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. Although we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of companies in the banking industry, there are limitations, it is not required to be uniformly applied, and it is not audited. The most comparable GAAP measure of equity to assets consists of total equity divided by total assets. Total equity to total assets was 11.56% at March 31, 2015 as compared to 11.35% at December 31, 2014.

¹ Tangible book value is a non-GAAP measure defined as shareholders' equity, less intangible assets, divided by shares outstanding. The reconciliation of tangible book value per share to book value per share is shown in the table below:

(In thousands, except per share data)	March 31, 2015		December 31, 2014
Total shareholders' equity		$167,384		$164,441
Divided by common shares outstanding	6,854,189		6,854,189
Book value per share		$24.42		$23.99

Divided by common shares outstanding	6,854,189		6,854,189
Tangible book value per share		$20.92		$20.48

² Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP ratio that represents total equity less goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. This ratio has received more attention over the past several years from stock analysts and regulators. The GAAP measure of common equity to assets would be total equity to total assets. The reconciliation of total shareholders' equity to tangible common shareholders' equity (non-GAAP) and total assets to tangible assets is shown in the table below:

(In Thousands)	March 31, 2015			December 31, 2014
Total shareholders' equity		$167,384			$164,441
Less: goodwill and other intangible assets, net	23,962			24,035
Tangible common shareholders' equity		$143,422			$140,406
Total assets		$1,447,984			$1,449,349
Less: goodwill and other intangible assets, net	23,962			24,035
Tangible assets		$1,424,022			$1,425,314
Tangible common equity ratio	10.07		%	9.85		%

The Company reported net income and diluted earnings per share of $3.6 million and $0.51, respectively, for the first quarter of 2015 compared to net income and diluted earnings per share of $2.7 million and $0.40, respectively, for the first quarter of 2014. The increase in net income in 2015 as compared to the same period of 2014 was primarily the result of $7.3 million mortgage banking income recognized from RML's home mortgage lending operations combined with increased interest and fees

on loans mainly resulting both from loans added in connection with our acquisition of Alaska Pacific and organic loan growth. These increases were partially offset by increased salaries and occupancy expenses primarily resulting from these acquisitions as well as a $1.5 million expense recorded in connection with the change in fair value of our earn-out liability associated with the acquisition of RML. Additionally, the increases in the Company's other operating income and net interest income for the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 were partially offset by a loan loss provision of $326,000 recorded for the first three months of 2015 compared to no loan loss provision in the same period of 2014, primarily due to the increase in loan balances in the first quarter of 2015.

The Company’s total assets were $1.4 billion at both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Increases in portfolio loans and loans held for sale were mostly offset by decreases in investment securities available for sale and interest bearing deposits in other banks. Net loans increased to $943.6 million at March 31, 2015 as compared to $907.8 million at December 31, 2014 due to increases in commercial, commercial real estate, and construction loans in the first quarter of 2015.

Credit Quality

Nonperforming assets: Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2015 decreased $281,000, or 3% to $9.0 million as compared to $9.3 million at December 31, 2014. Nonaccrual loans increased $136,000 to $4.8 million and total other real estate owned, or "OREO" decreased $398,000 to $4.2 million at March 31, 2015 as compared to $4.7 million and $4.6 million at December 31, 2014, respectively. Nonperforming purchased receivables were zero at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The following table summarizes OREO activity for the three month periods ending March 31, 2015 and 2014:

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Potential problem loans: Potential problem loans are loans which are currently performing that have developed negative indications that the borrower may not be able to comply with present payment terms and which may later be included in nonaccrual, past due, or impaired loans. At March 31, 2015, management had identified potential problem loans of $17.4 million as compared to potential problem loans of $18.0 million at December 31, 2014.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”): TDRs are those loans for which concessions, including the reduction of interest rates below a rate otherwise available to that borrower, have been granted due to the borrower’s weakened financial condition. Interest on TDRs will be accrued at the restructured rates when it is anticipated that no loss of original principal will occur, and the interest can be collected, which is generally after a period of six months. The Company had $5.8 million in loans classified as TDRs that were performing and $3.2 million in TDRs included in nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2015 for a total of $9.0 million. At December 31, 2014 there were $5.4 million in loans classified as TDRs that were performing and $2.3 million in TDRs included in nonaccrual loans for a total of $7.7 million. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report for further discussion of TDRs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Income Statement

Net Income

Net income attributable to the Company for the first quarter of 2015 increased $903,000, or 34%, to $3.6 million as compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2014. The increase in net income for the three month period ending March 31, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 was primarily due to the acquisition of Alaska Pacific in the second quarter of 2014 and the acquisition of the remaining 76.5% of RML in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Net Interest Income  / Net Interest Margin

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2015 increased $2.4 million, or 21%, to $13.6 million as compared to $11.2 million for the first quarter in 2014. The Company's net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets on a tax equivalent basis increased by 11 basis points to 4.39% for the three month period ending March 31, 2015, as compared to the same period in 2014. The increase in both net interest income and the net interest margin in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014 is primarily the result of increased average loan balances.

Average loans, the largest category of interest-earning assets, increased by $175.8 million, or 23% to $946.1 million in the three-month period ending March 31, 2015, as compared to the same period in 2014. Total interest income from loans increased $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, mainly due to increased average balances. Average balances increased across all loan types primarily as a result of loans acquired in connection with our acquisition of Alaska Pacific. Additionally, average loan balances from the Company's legacy operations (excluding the impact of loans associated with the operations of Alaska Pacific) increased in the first quarter of 2015, as compared to the same period a year ago.

Average investments decreased by $15.9 million, or 5% to $285.6 million in the three-month period ending March 31, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 mainly as a result of proceeds from called and matured investments being used to fund our growth in loans. Interest income from investments increased $155,000 or 21% for this same period primarily due to increased volume and average yields on long-term investments which were partially offset by decreased average balances on short-term investments.

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $164.5 million, or 24%, to $842.2 million during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $677.7 million, for the same period in 2014. These increases were primarily the result of additional average interest-bearing deposit balances acquired in connection with our acquisition of Alaska Pacific and increased borrowings resulting from a warehouse line of credit acquired as a result of our acquisition of RML. Additionally, certificates of deposits increased as a result of a campaign the Company ran in the fourth quarter of 2014. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased $314,000, or 71%, for the three-month period ending March 31, 2015, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2014, primarily as a result of the increases in average balances for both deposits and borrowings combined with increases in interest rates. Interest rates on deposits increased due to a change in the mix of the Company's deposits. Certificates of deposits accounted for 12% and 9% of total deposits at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Additionally, interest rates on short term borrowings increased mainly due to the Company's acquisition of RML and their higher cost short term funding lines used to fund mortgage originations.

¹Interest income includes loan fees.  Loan fees recognized during the period and included in the yield calculation totaled $824,000 and $705,000 in the first quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

²Nonaccrual loans are included with a zero effective yield.  Average nonaccrual loans included in the computation of the average loans were $4.6 million and $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2015 and 2014 respectively.

³Tax-equivalent net interest margin is a non-GAAP performance measurement in which interest income on non-taxable investments and loans is presented on a tax-equivalent basis using a combined federal and state statutory rate of 41.11% in both 2015 and 2014. Although we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of companies in the banking industry, there are limitations, it is not required to be uniformly applied, and it is not audited. The most comparable GAAP measure, net interest margin, was 4.81% and 4.17%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2015 and 2014. The following table is a reconciliation of tax-equivalent net interest margin to net interestmargin:

Provision for Loan Losses 

The provision for loan losses was $326,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to no provision for loan losses in the same period of 2014. The increase in the provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014 is primarily the result of the increase in total portfolio loans. At March 31, 2015, the Allowance was $16.9 million, or 1.76% of total loans as compared to $16.7 million, or 1.81% of total loans at December 31, 2014. Nonperforming loans compared to total portfolio loans decreased to 0.50% at March 31, 2015 from 0.51% at December 31, 2014, and the Allowance compared to nonperforming loans decreased to 352% at March 31, 2015 from 358% at December 31, 2014. See additional analysis of the Allowance in the Balance Sheet Overview section.

43

Other Operating Income

Other operating income for the three-month period ending March 31, 2015, increased $7.8 million, or 285%, to $10.5 million as compared to the same period in 2014. This increase is primarily the result of $7.3 million in mortgage banking income recognized from RML in the first quarter of 2015. The Company acquired the remaining 76.5% of RML on December 1, 2014 making RML a wholly-owned, consolidated subsidiary of the Company. RML's results of operations prior to the December 1, 2014 acquisition were included in our operating results under the equity method. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, the Company recognized an increase of $122,000 in internet banking income mostly due to increased deposit account balances, an increase of $108,000 in purchased receivable income mostly due to higher purchased receivable balances, and an increase in other income of $225,000. The increase in other income is primarily the result of a $103,000 increase in rental income. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $99,000 in employee benefit plan income in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period of 2014.

Other Operating Expense

Other operating expense for the first quarter of 2015 increased $8.5 million, or 85%, to $18.5 million as compared to the same period in 2014, mainly reflecting an increase in salaries and other personnel expense of $4.6 million in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014 and an expense of $1.5 million incurred in the first quarter of 2015 related to the earn out liability attributable to the RML acquisition. Additionally, occupancy expense and OREO expense net of rental income and gains on sales increased $727,000 and $535,000, respectively, in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014. The increase in salaries and other personnel expense was primarily due to an increase in average full time equivalent employees from 263 at March 31, 2014 to 426 at March 31, 2015, primarily due to the acquisitions of Alaska Pacific and RML. Occupancy expense increased primarily due to the acquisition of Alaska Pacific and RML which increased the number of bank and home mortgage lending branches maintained by the Company. OREO expense net of rental income and gains on sales increased primarily due to an increase in impairment on OREO properties and a decrease in sales of OREO properties.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the three-month period ending March 31, 2015 increased $450,000, or 35%, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to the increase in pre-tax net income. The effective tax rate for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2015 and 2014 was 33% and 32%, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Balance Sheet Overview

Investment Securities

Investment securities at March 31, 2015 decreased $27.0 million, or 9%, to $257.0 million from $283.9 million at December 31, 2014. This decrease was primarily due to sales, maturities, and security calls of available for sale securities, which were only partially offset by purchases. The Company used proceeds from the net decrease in investment securities to fund loan growth in the first three months of 2015.

Loans and Lending Activities

Our loan products include short and medium-term commercial loans, commercial credit lines, construction and real estate loans, and consumer loans. From our inception, we have emphasized commercial, land development and home construction, and commercial real estate lending. This type of lending has provided us with market opportunities and higher net interest margins than other types of lending. However, it also involves greater risks, including greater exposure to changes in local economic conditions, than certain other types of lending.

Portfolio loans increased by $36.1 million, or 4%, to $960.6 million at March 31, 2015 from $924.5 million at December 31, 2014, primarily the result of organic growth in commercial and real estate construction loans.

Analysis of Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an Allowance to reflect losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses and loan recoveries and decreased by loan charge-offs. The size of the Allowance is determined through quarterly assessments of probable estimated losses in the loan portfolio.

Our methodology for making such assessments and determining the adequacy of the Allowance includes the following key elements:

A specific allocation for impaired loans. Management determines the fair value of the majority of these loans based on the underlying collateral values. This analysis is based upon a specific analysis for each impaired loan, including external appraisals on loans secured by real property, management’s assessment of the current market, recent payment history, and an evaluation of other sources of repayment. In-house evaluations of fair value are used in the impairment analysis in some situations. Inputs to the in-house evaluation process include information about sales of comparable properties in the appropriate markets and changes in tax assessed values. The Company obtains appraisals on real and personal property that secure its loans during the loan origination process in accordance with regulatory guidance and its loan policy. The Company obtains updated appraisals on loans secured by real or personal property based upon its assessment of changes in the current market or particular projects or properties, information from other current appraisals, and other sources of information. Appraisals may be adjusted downward by the Company based on its evaluation of the facts and circumstances on a case by case basis. External appraisals may be discounted when management believes that the absorption period used in the appraisal is unrealistic, when expected liquidation costs exceed those included in the appraisal, or when management’s evaluation of deteriorating market conditions warrants an adjustment. Additionally, the Company may also adjust appraisals in the above circumstances between appraisal dates. The Company uses the information provided in these updated appraisals along with its evaluation of all other information available on a particular property as it assesses the collateral coverage on its performing and nonperforming loans and the impact that may have on the adequacy of its Allowance. The specific allowance for impaired loans, as well as the overall Allowance, may increase based on the Company’s assessment of updated appraisals. When the Company determines that a loss has occurred on an impaired loan, a charge-off equal to the difference between carrying value and fair value is recorded. If a specific allowance is deemed necessary for a loan, and then that loan is partially charged off, the loan remains classified as a nonperforming loan after the charge-off is recognized. Loans measured for impairment based on collateral value and all other loans measured for impairment are accounted for in the same way. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, 7% and 6% of nonperforming loans, which totaled $4.8 million and $4.7 million, respectively, had partially charged-off balances.

A general allocation. The Company has identified segments and classes of loans not considered impaired for purposes of establishing the general allocation allowance. The Company determined the disaggregation of the loan portfolio into segments and classes based on its assessment of how different pools of loans with like characteristics in the portfolio behave over time. This determination is based on historical experience and management’s assessment of how current facts and circumstances are expected to affect the loan portfolio.

45

The Company has the following loan segments: commercial, real estate construction one-to-four family, real estate construction other, real estate term owner occupied, real estate term non-owner occupied, real estate term other, consumer secured by 1st deeds of trust, and other consumer loans. The Company has five loan classes: pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss.

After the portfolio has been disaggregated into segments and classes, the Company calculates a general reserve for each segment and class based on the average year loss history for each segment and class using a five year look-back period.

After the Company calculates a general allocation using its loss history, the general reserve is then adjusted for qualitative factors by segment and class. Qualitative factors are based on management’s assessment of current trends that may cause losses inherent in the current loan portfolio to differ significantly from historical losses. Some factors that management considers in determining the qualitative adjustment to the general reserve include loan quality trends in our own portfolio, national and local economic trends, business conditions, underwriting policies and standards, trends in local real estate markets, effects of various political activities, peer group data, and internal factors such as underwriting policies and expertise of the Company’s employees.

An unallocated reserve. The unallocated portion of the Allowance provides for other credit losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio that may not have been contemplated in the specific and general components of the Allowance, and it acknowledges the inherent imprecision of all loss prediction models. The unallocated component is reviewed periodically based on trends in credit losses and overall economic conditions.

At March 31, 2015, the unallocated portion of the Allowance as a percentage of the total Allowance was 4%. The unallocated portion of the Allowance as a percentage of the total Allowance was 7% at December 31, 2014.

Further discussion of the enhancement to the Company’s Allowance methodology can be found in Item 7 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Allowance related to acquired loans: In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, loans purchased from Alaska Pacific on April 1, 2014 were recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date. Credit discounts were included in the determination of fair value; therefore, an allowance for loan losses was not recorded at the acquisition date. Purchased credit impaired loans were evaluated on a loan by loan basis and the valuation allowance for these loans was netted against the carrying value. Deterioration in credit quality of the acquired loans subsequent to acquisition date results in the establishments of an allowance. There was no allowance related to acquired loans at March 31, 2015.

The following table sets forth information regarding changes in the Allowance for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(In Thousands)	2015		2014
Balance at beginning of period		$16,723		$16,282
Charge-offs:
Commercial	107		320

Net, charge-offs	102		250
Provision for loan losses	326		—
Balance at end of period		$16,947		$16,032

46

While management believes that it uses the best information available to determine the Allowance, unforeseen market conditions and other events could result in adjustment to the Allowance, and net income could be significantly affected if circumstances differed substantially from the assumptions used in making the final determination of the Allowance. Moreover, bank regulators frequently monitor banks' loan loss allowances, and if regulators were to determine that the Company’s Allowance is inadequate, they may require the Company to increase the Allowance, which may adversely impact the Company’s net income and financial condition.

Deposits

Deposits are the Company’s primary source of funds. Total deposits were relatively flat with a balance of $1.2 billion at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $6.9 million to $410.5 million at March 31, 2015, from $403.5 million at December 31, 2014. The Company’s mix of deposits continues to contribute to a low cost of funds with balances in transaction accounts representing 88% of total deposits at both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Savings account balances at March 31, 2015 were up 4% as compared to December 31, 2014. At March 31, 2015, noninterest-bearing demand deposits accounted for 35% of total deposits, interest-bearing demand accounts were 15%, savings deposits were 11%, money market balances accounted for 19%, the Alaska CD accounted for 8% and time certificates were 12% of total deposits. There were no depositors with deposits representing 10% or more of total deposits at March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

Borrowings

The Company has a maximum line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle, or "FHLB" approximating 25% of eligible assets. FHLB advances are subject to collateral criteria that require the Company to pledge assets under a blanket pledge arrangement as collateral for its borrowings from the FHLB. Based on assets currently pledged and advances currently outstanding at March 31, 2015, the Company’s maximum borrowing line from the FHLB, was $203.3 million, representing approximately 14% of the Company’s assets. The Company has an outstanding FHLB advance of $2.2 million as of both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, that was originated in the first quarter of 2013. FHLB advances are dependent on the availability of acceptable collateral such as marketable securities or real estate loans, although all FHLB advances are secured by a blanket pledge of the Company’s assets. The $2.2 million FHLB advance that the Company drew in the first quarter of 2013 was to match fund a $2.2 million loan to one borrower for the construction of a low income housing project that qualified for a long term fixed interest rate of 3.12%. This FHLB borrowing has an eighteen year term with a 30 year amortization period, which mirrors the term of the construction loan made to the borrower.

The Company, through RML, had borrowings of $20.4 million and $24.1 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. This borrowing is a line of credit used by RML to fund mortgage originations that matures on August 12, 2015.

At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no short-term (original maturity of one year or less) borrowings that exceeded 30% of shareholders’ equity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company manages its liquidity through its Asset and Liability Committee. In addition to the $46.1 million of cash and due from banks and interest bearing deposits in other banks and $198.5 million in unpledged available for sale securities held at March 31, 2015, the Company had additional funding sources which include fed fund borrowing lines and advances available at the FHLB of Seattle and the Federal Reserve Bank of approximately $378.1 million as of March 31, 2015.

At March 31, 2015, $56.3 million in securities, or 22%, of the investment portfolio was pledged, as compared to $54.1 million, or 19%, at December 31, 2014. As shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, net cash used by operating activities was $20.8 million for the first three months of 2015 primarily due to net originations of loans held for sale and an increase in other liabilities. Net cash used by investing activities was $9.4 million for the same period, primarily due to an increase in both loans and purchases of investment securities available for sale being partially offset by the proceeds from sales and maturities of securities available for sale. Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.2 million, primarily due to an increase in deposits.

The Company did not issue any shares of its common stock in the first quarter of 2015 and did not repurchase any shares of its common stock under the Company’s publicly announced repurchase program. At March 31, 2015, the Company had 6,854,189 shares of its common stock outstanding.

Capital Requirements and Ratios

47

The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Northrim Bank (the “Bank”), are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum regulatory capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about the components of regulatory capital, risk weightings, and other factors. The regulatory agencies may establish higher minimum requirements if, for example, a bank or bank holding company has previously received special attention or has a high susceptibility to interest rate risk.

Effective January 1, 2015, both the Company and the Bank are required to meet more stringent minimum capital requirements standards, commonly referred to as “Basel III”. As such, the ratios presented as of March 31, 2015 are calculated under the new regulations of Basel III. The ratios presented as of December 31, 2014 are calculated under the prior regulations of Basel II.

The requirements address both risk-based capital and leverage capital. At March 31, 2015, all capital ratios of the Company and the Bank exceeded the ratios required for a “well-capitalized” institution under regulatory guidelines.

The following table sets forth the actual capital ratios for the Company and the Bank as calculated under regulatory guidelines, compared to the regulatory minimum capital ratios and the regulatory minimum capital ratios needed to be eligible to qualify as a “well-capitalized” institution as of March 31, 2015.

	Adequately-Capitalized	Well-Capitalized	Northrim BanCorp, Inc.	Northrim Bank
March 31, 2015
Common equity tier 1 capital	4.50%	6.50%	11.28%	11.70%
Tier 1 risk-based capital	6.00%	8.00%	12.71%	11.71%
Total risk-based capital	8.00%	10.00%	13.96%	12.95%
Leverage ratio	4.00%	5.00%	10.35%	10.73%
December 31, 2014
Tier 1 risk-based capital	4.00%	6.00%	13.06%	12.05%
Total risk-based capital	8.00%	10.00%	14.31%	13.30%
Leverage ratio	4.00%	5.00%	11.21%	10.35%

The regulatory capital ratios for the Company exceed those for the Bank primarily because the $18.6 million junior subordinated debenture offerings that the Company completed in the third quarter of 2003 and the fourth quarter of 2005 are included in the Company’s capital for regulatory purposes although such securities are accounted for as a long-term debt in its financial statements. The junior subordinated debentures are not accounted for on the Bank’s financial statements nor are they included in its capital. As a result, the Company has $18.6 million more in regulatory capital than the Bank, which explains the significant difference in the capital ratios for the two entities.

Off-Balance Sheet Items

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. Among the off-balance sheet items entered into in the ordinary course of business are commitments to extend credit and the issuance of letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the balance sheet. Certain commitments are collateralized. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s commitments to extend credit and to provide letters of credit which are not reflected on its balance sheet amounted to $220.0 million and $219.3 million, respectively. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, these total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company has established reserves of $112,000 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, for losses related to these commitments that are recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Capital Expenditures and Commitments

48

At March 31, 2015 the Company has capital commitments of $2.1 million related to the construction of a new branch locations and $999,000 related to planned improvements to the Company’s corporate office building. The Company expects these capital expenditures to be incurred in the second and third quarters of 2015.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our assessment of market risk as of March 31, 2015 indicates that there are no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative disclosures from those in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Our principal executive and financial officers supervised and participated in this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers each concluded that as of March 31, 2015, the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the periodic reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon various assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any of our plans, products, services or procedures will succeed in achieving their intended goals under future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Disclosure and Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15-d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

During the normal course of its business, the Company is a party to various debtor-creditor legal actions, disputes, claims, and litigation related to the conduct of its banking business. These include cases filed as a plaintiff in collection and foreclosure cases, and the enforcement of creditors’ rights in bankruptcy proceedings. Management does not expect that the resolution of these matters will have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

For information regarding risk factors, please refer to Item 1A in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. These risk factors have not materially changed as of March 31, 2015.

Exhibit10.1 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective the 27th day of March, 2015 (the “Effective Date”), by and between NORTHRIM BANCORP, INC. and its wholly owned subsidiary, NORTHRIM BANK, a state‑chartered commercial bank, with its principal office in Anchorage, Alaska (collectively, the “Employer”), and Joseph M. Schierhorn (the“Executive”).

In consideration of the mutual promises made in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

1.Employment.

Employer employs Executive and Executive accepts employment with Employer as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. and President and Chief Operating Officer of Northrim Bank.

2.Term.

The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 5, shall continue through December 31, 2015; provided, however, that on January 1, 2016 and each succeeding January 1, the Term shall automatically be extended for one additional year unless, not later than ninety (90) days prior to any such January 1, either party shall have given written notice to the other that it does not wish to extend the Term. In the event the Term is not extended, Executive shall have no rights to any of the severance payments or benefits continuation described in Section 5 except as specifically provided for in Section 5.a.

3.Duties.

The Executive will serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. and President and Chief Operating Officer of Northrim Bank. Executive shall render such executive, management and administrative services and perform such tasks in connection with the affairs and overall operation of the Employer as is customary for his position, subject to the direction of Employer’s President and Board of Directors. Executive shall devote necessary time, attention and effort to Employer’s business in order to properly discharge his responsibilities under this Agreement.

4.Compensation, Benefits, Reimbursement and Profit Sharing.

a.Base Salary. In consideration for all services rendered by Executive during the term of this Agreement, Employer shall pay Executive an annual base salary (before all customary and proper payroll deductions) of $285,000 as adjusted from time to time (“Base Salary”). The Board of Directors of the Employer shall review Executive’s salary each year, in a manner consistent with that used for all management employees of the Employer, and in its sole discretion may adjust such salary commensurate with the Executive’s performance under this Agreement.

b.Profit Sharing Plan. Under the Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual profit share (“Profit Share”) based on performance as defined by the Board of Directors. Executive will be classified in the Executive tier under the Plan’s Responsibility Factors. If Employer is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to “material noncompliance of the Employer”, the Employer will recover from the Executive any incentive compensation during the three (3) years prior to the date of the restatement, in excess of what would have been paid under the restatement.

Executive’s signature on this Agreement authorizes Employer to offset or deduct from any compensation Employer may owe Executive, any excess payments (in whole or in part) that Executive may owe Employer due to such restatement(s).

c.StockIncentive Plan. Executive shall be eligible for awards under the Employer’s Stock Incentive Plan. The type, timing and size of awards will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

d.Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), Supplemental Executive Retirement Deferred Compensation Plan and Deferred Compensation Plan. Executive shall also be entitled to receive an annual contribution equal to fifteen percent (15%) of annual Base Salary in accordance with the Employer’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, as may be adjusted at the discretion of the Board of Directors from time to time. Annually, Employer will also make payment to Executive’s account as outlined in the Employer’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Deferred Compensation Plan. The Executive may also participate in the Employer’s Deferred Compensation Plan.

e.Other Benefits. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Employer shall provide Executive with reasonable health insurance, disability and other employee benefits. Executive shall participate in all employee benefit plans and programs of Employer on a basis at least as favorable as that accorded to any other officer of Employer.

f.Expenses. Employer shall reimburse Executive for his reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, travel, entertainment, and similar expenses) incurred in performing and promoting the business of Employer. Executive shall present from time to time itemized accounts and receipts of any such expenses as required by Employer, subject to any limits of company policy and the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service, including the Internal Revenue Code, (referred to throughout this Agreement as “IRC” or the “Code”).

5.Termination of Agreement.

a.Termination Due to a Change of Control. If (A) Employer (either Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank) is subjected to a Change of Control (as defined in Section 5.f.(i)), and (B) either Employer or its assigns terminates Executive’s employment without Cause (either during the annual term of this Agreement or by refusing to extend this Agreement when the annual termination occurs every December 31) or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason within 730 days of such Change of Control, then Employer shall pay Executive (i) all Base Salary earned and all reimbursable expenses incurred under this Agreement through such termination date; (ii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s highest Base Salary over the prior three (3) years, and (iii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s average Profit Share over the prior three (3) years. The amounts described in Section 5.a.(i), (ii), and (iii herein shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the day on which employment is terminated. No payment will be made pursuant to Sections 5.a.(ii) and (iii) unless the Executive has signed an agreement, in a form acceptable to Employer, that releases and holds Employer harmless from all known and unknown claims and liabilities arising out of Executive’s employment with Employer or the performance of this Agreement (“Release Agreement”) and the Release Agreement has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

(I)Benefits Continuation.In addition, Executive shall be entitled to health and dental insurance benefits for a period of two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement. These benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s

continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

(II)Age and Service Credit.Executive shall also be entitled to receive age credit and credit for period of service towards all SERP plans for the remaining period of time covered by this Agreement. If Executive is hired by Employer, its assigns, any company in control of Employer, or any company controlled by Employer during the period covered by this Agreement, then Executive will be entitled to be treated for all purposes relating to future compensation, and benefits, as if this Agreement had never been terminated and as if Executive had performed his responsibilities as an Executive throughout the period originally covered by this Agreement.

b.Termination by Employer Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment without Cause, or if Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall pay Executive in a lump sum: (i) all Base Salary earned and all reimbursable expenses incurred under this Agreement through such termination date; and (ii) an amount equal to one (1) times Executive’s highest Base Salary over the prior three (3) years. The amount described in 5.b.(i) herein shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the day on which employment is terminated. The amount described in 5.b.(ii) herein shall be paid on the first day of the month following a period of six (6) months after the termination of employment, provided that the payment may be made sooner if either (i) the amount does not exceed the IRC Safe Harbor or (ii) at the Executive’s election, the amount described in Section 5.a.(ii) is reduced to fit within the IRC Safe Harbor. No payment will be made pursuant to Section 5.a.(ii) unless the Executive has signed a Release Agreement which has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

(I)Benefits Continuation.In addition, Executive shall be entitled to health and dental insurance benefits for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of this Agreement. These benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

(II)Age and Service Credit.Executive shall also be entitled to receive age credit and credit for period of service towards all SERP plans for the remaining period of time covered by this Agreement. If Executive is hired by Employer, its assigns, any company in control of Employer, or any company controlled by Employer during the period covered by this Agreement, then Executive will be entitled to be treated for all purposes relating to future compensation, and benefits, as if this Agreement had never been terminated and as if Executive had performed his responsibilities as an Executive throughout the period originally covered by this Agreement.

c.Termination by Employer for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment for Cause or if Executive terminates his employment without Good Reason, Employer shall pay Executive upon the effective date of such termination only such Base Salary earned and expenses reimbursable under this Agreement incurred through such termination date. In such case, Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after termination under this Agreement.

d.Termination Due to Disability. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment on account of any mental or physical Disability that prevents Executive from performing his essential job functions, even with reasonable accommodation, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) all Base Salary earned and reimbursement for expenses incurred under this Agreement through the termination date, (ii) full Base Salary for the year following the termination date (less the amount of any payments received by Executive during such one (1) year period under any Employer‑sponsored disability plan), and (iii) health and dental

insurance benefits for a period of one (1) year following the termination date, which benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”). All such compensation shall be paid Executive in one (1) lump sum the first day of the month following a period of six (6) months after Executive’s employment was terminated, provided that Executive has signed a Release Agreement which has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

If any disputed termination under Section 5.c. is subsequently determined to have been without Cause, Executive's recovery shall be limited to those payments and benefits set out under Section 5.b.

e.Termination Upon Death of Executive. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated upon the death of Executive. In such case, the Employer shall be obligated to pay to the surviving spouse of Executive, or if there is none, to the Executive’s estate: (i) that portion of Executive’s Base Salary that would otherwise have been paid to him for the month in which his death occurred, and (ii) any amounts due him pursuant to the Northrim Bank Savings Incentive Plan (401-K) and the Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, any supplemental deferred compensation plan, and any other death, insurance, employee benefit plan or stock benefit plan provided to Executive by the Employer, according to the terms of the respective plans.

f.Termination Definitions.

(i)“Change of Control.” For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events: (A) One (1) person or entity acquiring or otherwise becoming the owner of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of Employer’s outstanding common stock; (B) Replacement of a majority of the incumbent directors of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank by directors whose elections have not been supported by a majority of the Board of either company, as appropriate; (C) Dissolution or sale of fifty percent (50%) or more in value of the assets, of either Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank; or (D) A change “in the ownership or effective control” or “in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of Employer, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.

(ii)“Cause.” For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Cause” shall include termination because Executive (A) continually fails to substantially perform his duties with the Employer, (B) is adjudged guilty of a felony, any crime involving dishonesty or breach of trust or any crime involving a breach of his fiduciary duties to the Employer, (C) is willfully and continually failing to comply with any law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease and desist order of a regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Employer, (D) commits a material act of dishonesty or disloyalty related to the business of the Employer, or (E) is unable to substantially perform his duties with the Employer due to drug addiction or chronic alcoholism. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three‑quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Employer’s Board of Directors at a meeting of the Board called for such purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, he was guilty of conduct that constitutes Cause (as defined above) and specifying the conduct in detail.

(iii)“Disability.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean a medically diagnosed physical or mental impairment that may be expected to result in death, or to be of long, continued duration, and that renders Executive incapable of performing his essential job functions under this Agreement, even after he has been accorded reasonable accommodation. Employer’s Board of Directors,

acting in good faith, in accordance with applicable law, shall make the final determination of whether Executive is suffering under any Disability (as herein defined) and, for purposes of making such determination, may require Executive to submit himself to a physical examination by a physician mutually agreed upon by the Executive and Employer’s Board of Directors at Employer’s expense.

(iv)“Good Reason.” For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Good Reason” shall mean termination by Executive as a result of any material breach of this Agreement by Employer. Good Reason shall include, but not be limited to: (A) a material reduction in Executive’s compensation defined as a reduction equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of Executive’s then annual base salary, (B) a material reduction in Executive’s duties and responsibilities, but not merely a change in title, or (C) relocation of Executive’s primary workplace by more than fifty (50) miles. “Good Reason” will only be deemed to occur if, within ninety (90) days after a material reduction or change described above first occurs, the Executive provides notice to the Employer of the existence of Good Reason and of the Executive’s intended termination of employment due to Good Reason, and the Employer does not remove the Good Reason condition within ninety (90) days after receiving such notice from the Executive. The Executive’s written notice must explain the basis on which the Executive believes Good Reason exists, the cure period, and the date on which the Executive intends to terminate employment, which must be no later than six (6) monthsafter the existence of the Good Reason. The provisions of Section 5.f.(iv) are intended to comply with the Good Reason safe harbor provisions of Code Section 409A and applicable regulations.

(v)Termination from Employment. A termination from employment under this Agreement shall mean a “Separation from Service” as interpreted in accordance with Code Section 409A and generally meaning the date on which the Executive is no longer performing services for the Employer. The Executive shall not have a Separation from Service while on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as the Executive retains a right to reemployment under an applicable statute or contract. A leave of absence constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Executive will return to perform services.

6.Limit on Severance Payment for Change of Control.

Notwithstanding anything above in Section 5.a., if the severance payment provided for in that Section, together with any other payments which the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), the severance payment shall be reduced. The reduction shall be in an amount so that the present value of the total amount received by the Executive from the Employer or its affiliates and subsidiaries will be 2.99 times the Executive’s base amount (as defined in Section 280G of the Code) and so that no portion of the amounts received by the Executive shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (excise tax). Insofar as permitted by the Code, Employer shall reduce those elements of the severance pay package specified by the Executive, provided, however, that Employer will not reduce the SERP credits provided for in Section 5.b.(II). The determination as to whether any reduction in the severance payment is necessary shall be made by the Employer in good faith, and the determination shall be conclusive and binding on Executive. If through error or otherwise Executive should receive payments under this Plan, together with other payments the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, in excess of 2.99 times his base amount, Executive shall immediately repay the excess to Employer upon notification that an overpayment has been made.

7.Covenant Not To Compete.

a.Executive agrees that for the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year after this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.a. or 5.b., Executive will not directly or indirectly

be employed by, own, manage, operate, support, join, or benefit in any way from any business activity within the states where Employer operates that is competitive with Employer’s business or reasonably anticipated business of which Executive has knowledge. For purposes of the foregoing, Executive will be deemed to be connected with such business if the business is carried on by: (i) a partnership in which Executive is a general or limited partner; or (ii) a corporation of which Executive is a shareholder (other than a shareholder owning less than five percent (5%) of the total outstanding shares of the corporation), officer, director, employee or consultant, whether paid or unpaid. In the event of an alleged breach by Executive of this Section 7, the one-year noncompete period shall be extended until such breach or violation has been duly cured, and shall restart so that Employer has received the intended benefit of one uninterrupted year of noncompetition by Executive.

b.The parties agree that if a trial judge with jurisdiction over a dispute related to this Agreement should determine that the restrictive covenant set forth above is unreasonably broad, the parties authorize such trial judge to narrow the covenant so as to make it reasonable, given all relevant circumstances, and to enforce such covenant. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

8.Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.

a.During the term of Executive’s employment and thereafter, Executive agrees to hold Employer’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, and not disclose or use it at any time except as authorized by Employer and for Employer’s benefit. If anyone tries to compel Executive to disclose any Confidential Information, by subpoena or otherwise, Executive agrees immediately to notify Employer so that Employer may take any actions it deems necessary to protect its interests. Executive’s agreement to protect Employer’s Confidential Information applies both during the term of this Agreement and after employment ends, regardless of the reason it ends.

b.“Confidential Information” includes, without limitation, any information in whatever form that Employer considers to be confidential, proprietary, information and that is not publicly or generally available relating to Employer’s: trade secrets (as defined by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act); know-how; concepts; methods; research and development; product, content and technology development plans; marketing plans; databases; inventions; research data and mechanisms; software (including functional specifications, source code and object code); procedures; engineering; purchasing; accounting; marketing; sales; customers; advertisers; joint venture partners; suppliers; financial status; contracts or employees. Confidential Information includes information developed by Executive, alone or with others, or entrusted to Employer by its customers or others.

9.Nonsolicitation.

During the course of Executive’s employment and for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit or entice any of the following to cease, terminate or reduce any relationship with Employer or to divert any business from Employer: (a) any person who was an employee of Employer during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the termination of Executive’s employment; (b) any customer or client of Employer; or (c) any prospective customer or client of Employer from whom Executive actively solicited business within the last one (1) year of Executive’s employment. In the event of an alleged breach by Executive of this Section 9, the one-year nonsolicitation period shall be extended until such breach or violation has been duly cured, and shall restart so that Employer has received the intended benefit of one uninterrupted year of nonsolicitation by Executive.

10.Non-Disparagement.

Executive will not, during the Term or after the termination or expiration of this Agreement or Executive’s employment, make disparaging statements, in any form, about Employer’s officers, directors, agents, employees, products or services which Executive knows, or has reason to believe, are false or misleading.

11.Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate.

a.Except as provided in Section 11.b., in the event of a dispute or claim between Executive and Employer related to Employee’s employment or termination of employment, all such disputes or claims will be resolved exclusively by confidential arbitration in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). This means that the parties agree to waive their rights to have such disputes or claims decided in court by a jury. Instead, such disputes or claims will be resolved by an impartial AAA arbitrator whose decision will be final.

b.The only disputes or claims that are not subject to arbitration are any claims by Executive for workers’ compensation or unemployment benefits, and any claim by Executive for benefits under an employee benefit plan that provides its own arbitration procedure. Also, Executive and Employer may seek equitable relief (such as an injunction or declaratory relief) in court in appropriate circumstances. Specifically, Executive recognizes that Employer does not have an adequate remedy at law to protect its business from Executive’s breach of Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, and therefore Employer shall be entitled to bring an action for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunctive relief pre-arbitration, in the event of any actual or threatened breach by Executive of Sections 7, 8, or 9. In such court proceeding, Employer shall not be required to post a bond or other security, and Employer may also be awarded actual damages caused by Executive’s breach of Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement as well as repayment of all or a portion of any severance that Employer previously paid to Executive.

c.Except as provided by section 11.b., the arbitration procedure will afford Executive and Employer the full range of legal, equitable, and/or statutory remedies. Employer will pay all costs that are unique to arbitration, except that the party who initiates arbitration will pay the filing fee charged by AAA. Executive and Employer shall be entitled to discovery sufficient to adequately arbitrate their claims, including access to essential documents and witnesses, as determined by the arbitrator and subject to limited judicial review. In order for any judicial review of the arbitrator’s decision to be successfully accomplished, the arbitrator will issue a written decision that will decide all issues submitted and will reveal the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

12.Miscellaneous.

a.This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to Executive’s employment with Employer, and is subject to modification or amendment only upon agreement in writing signed by both parties.

b.This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties, except that Employer’s rights and obligations may not be assigned.

c.If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then such provision shall be modified so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If such provision cannot be modified to be enforceable, the provision shall be severed from the Agreement

to the extent it is unenforceable. All other provisions and any partially enforceable provisions shall remain unaffected and shall remain in full force and effect.

d.In the event of any claim or dispute arising out of this Agreement, the party that substantially prevails shall be entitled to reimbursement of all expenses incurred in connection with such claim or dispute, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other professional fees. This paragraph shall apply to expenses incurred with or without suit, and in any judicial, arbitration or administrative proceedings, including all appeals therefrom.

e. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement to either party shall be given by personal service (i.e., via hand delivery) or by depositing a copy of such notice in the United States registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the following address, or such other address as addressee shall designate in writing:

f.This Agreement shall in all respects, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, be governed by and construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Alaska.

g.This Agreement is intended to comply and shall be interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, including any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder. In the event that any provision of the Agreement would cause a benefit or amount provided hereunder to be subject to tax under the Internal Revenue Code prior to the time such amount is paid, such provision shall, without the necessity of further action by the signatories to this Agreement, be null and void as of the Effective Date.

h.Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no payment of any type or amount of compensation or benefits shall be made or owed by Employer to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to the extent that payment of such type or amount is restricted or prohibited by, is not permitted under, or has not received any required approval under, any applicable federal or state statute, regulation, rule, policy, order, opinion, interpretation or similar issuance, whether now in existence or hereafter adopted or imposed, including without limitation any provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or regulations promulgated thereunder, 12 USC 1828(k) or 12 CFR Part 359. In the event that any payment made to Executive hereunder, under any prior employment agreement or arrangement or otherwise is required under any applicable federal or state statute, regulation, rule, policy, order, opinion, interpretation or similar issuance or under any agreement with or policy or plan of Employer to be paid back to Employer, Executive shall upon written demand from Employer promptly pay such amount back to Employer.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective the 27th day of March, 2015 (the “Effective Date”), by and between NORTHRIM BANCORP, INC. and its wholly owned subsidiary, NORTHRIM BANK, a state‑chartered commercial bank, with its principal office in Anchorage, Alaska (collectively, the “Employer”), and Joseph M. Beedle (the“Executive”).

In consideration of the mutual promises made in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

1.Employment.

Employer employs Executive and Executive accepts employment with Employer as President and ChiefExecutive Officer of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. and Chief Executive Officer of Northrim Bank.

2.Term.

The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 5, shall continue through December 31, 2015; provided, however, that on January 1, 2016 and each succeeding January 1, the Term shall automatically be extended for one additional year unless, not later than ninety (90) days prior to any such January 1, either party shall have given written notice to the other that it does not wish to extend the Term. In the event the Term is not extended, Executive shall have no rights to any of the severance payments or benefits continuation described in Section 5 except as specifically provided for in Section 5.a.

3.Duties.

The Executive will serve as President and ChiefExecutive Officer of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. and Chief Executive Officer of Northrim Bank. Executive shall render such executive, management and administrative services and perform such tasks in connection with the affairs and overall operation of the Employer as is customary for his position, subject to the direction of Employer’s Board of Directors. Executive shall devote necessary time, attention and effort to Employer’s business in order to properly discharge his responsibilities under this Agreement.

4.Compensation, Benefits, Reimbursement and Profit Sharing.

a.Base Salary. In consideration for all services rendered by Executive during the term of this Agreement, Employer shall pay Executive an annual base salary (before all customary and proper payroll deductions) of $290,000 as adjusted from time to time (“Base Salary”). The Board of Directors of the Employer shall review Executive’s salary each year, in a manner consistent with that used for all management employees of the Employer, and in its sole discretion may adjust such salary commensurate with the Executive’s performance under this Agreement.

b.Profit Sharing Plan. Under the Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual profit share (“Profit Share”) based on performance as defined by the Board of Directors. Executive will be classified in the Executive tier under the Plan’s Responsibility Factors. If Employer is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to “material noncompliance of the Employer”, the Employer will recover from the Executive any incentive compensation during the three (3) years prior to the date of the restatement, in excess of what would have been paid under the restatement. Executive’s signature on this Agreement authorizes Employer to offset or deduct from any compensation

Employer may owe Executive, any excess payments (in whole or in part) that Executive may owe Employer due to such restatement(s).

c.StockIncentive Plan. Executive shall be eligible for awards under the Employer’s Stock Incentive Plan. The type, timing and size of awards will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

d.Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), Supplemental Executive Retirement Deferred Compensation Plan and Deferred Compensation Plan. Executive shall also be entitled to receive an annual contribution equal to twenty percent (20%) of annual Base Salary in accordance with the Employer’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, as may be adjusted at the discretion of the Board of Directors from time to time. Annually, Employer will also make payment to Executive’s account as outlined in the Employer’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Deferred Compensation Plan. The Executive may also participate in the Employer’s Deferred Compensation Plan.

e.Other Benefits. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Employer shall provide Executive with reasonable health insurance, disability and other employee benefits. Executive shall participate in all employee benefit plans and programs of Employer on a basis at least as favorable as that accorded to any other officer of Employer.

f.Expenses. Employer shall reimburse Executive for his reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, travel, entertainment, and similar expenses) incurred in performing and promoting the business of Employer. Executive shall present from time to time itemized accounts and receipts of any such expenses as required by Employer, subject to any limits of company policy and the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service, including the Internal Revenue Code, (referred to throughout this Agreement as “IRC” or the “Code”).

5.Termination of Agreement.

a.Termination Due to a Change of Control. If (A) Employer (either Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank) is subjected to a Change of Control (as defined in Section 5.f.(i)), and (B) either Employer or its assigns terminates Executive’s employment without Cause (either during the annual term of this Agreement or by refusing to extend this Agreement when the annual termination occurs every December 31) or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason within 730 days of such Change of Control, then Employer shall pay Executive (i) all Base Salary earned and all reimbursable expenses incurred under this Agreement through such termination date; (ii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s highest Base Salary over the prior three (3) years; and (iii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s average Profit Share over the prior three (3) years. The amounts described in Section 5.a.(i), (ii) and (iii) herein shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the day on which employment is terminated. No payment will be made pursuant to Sections 5.a.(ii) and (iii) unless the Executive has signed an agreement, in a form acceptable to Employer, that releases and holds Employer harmless from all known and unknown claims and liabilities arising out of Executive’s employment with Employer or the performance of this Agreement (“Release Agreement”) and the Release Agreement has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

(I)Benefits Continuation.In addition, Executive shall be entitled to health and dental insurance benefits for a period of two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement. These benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

(II)Age and Service Credit.Executive shall also be entitled to receive age credit and credit for period of service towards all SERP plans for the remaining period of time covered by this Agreement. If Executive is hired by Employer, its assigns, any company in control of Employer, or any company controlled by Employer during the period covered by this Agreement, then Executive will be entitled to be treated for all purposes relating to future compensation, and benefits, as if this Agreement had never been terminated and as if Executive had performed his responsibilities as an Executive throughout the period originally covered by this Agreement.

b.Termination by Employer Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment without Cause, or if Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall pay Executive in a lump sum: (i) all Base Salary earned and all reimbursable expenses incurred under this Agreement through such termination date; and (ii) an amount equal to one (1) times Executive’s highest Base Salary over the prior three (3) years. The amount described in 5.b.(i) herein shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the day on which employment is terminated. The amount described in 5.b.(ii) herein shall be paid on the first day of the month following a period of six (6) months after the termination of employment, provided that the payment may be made sooner if either (i) the amount does not exceed the IRC Safe Harbor or (ii) at the Executive’s election, the amount described in Section 5.a.(ii) is reduced to fit within the IRC Safe Harbor. No payment will be made pursuant to Section 5.a.(ii) unless the Executive has signed a Release Agreement which has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

(I)Benefits Continuation.In addition, Executive shall be entitled to health and dental insurance benefits for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of this Agreement. These benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

(II)Age and Service Credit.Executive shall also be entitled to receive age credit and credit for period of service towards all SERP plans for the remaining period of time covered by this Agreement. If Executive is hired by Employer, its assigns, any company in control of Employer, or any company controlled by Employer during the period covered by this Agreement, then Executive will be entitled to be treated for all purposes relating to future compensation, and benefits, as if this Agreement had never been terminated and as if Executive had performed his responsibilities as an Executive throughout the period originally covered by this Agreement.

c.Termination by Employer for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment for Cause or if Executive terminates his employment without Good Reason, Employer shall pay Executive upon the effective date of such termination only such Base Salary earned and expenses reimbursable under this Agreement incurred through such termination date. In such case, Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after termination under this Agreement.

d.Termination Due to Disability. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment on account of any mental or physical Disability that prevents Executive from performing his essential job functions, even with reasonable accommodation, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) all Base Salary earned and reimbursement for expenses incurred under this Agreement through the termination date, (ii) full Base Salary for the year following the termination date (less the amount of any payments received by Executive during such one (1) year period under any Employer‑sponsored disability plan), and (iii) health and dental insurance benefits for a period of one (1) year following the termination date, which benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”). All such compensation shall

be paid Executive in one (1) lump sum the first day of the month following a period of six (6) months after Executive’s employment was terminated, provided that Executive has signed a Release Agreement which has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

If any disputed termination under Section 5.c. is subsequently determined to have been without Cause, Executive's recovery shall be limited to those payments and benefits set out under Section 5.b.

e.Termination Upon Death of Executive. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated upon the death of Executive. In such case, the Employer shall be obligated to pay to the surviving spouse of Executive, or if there is none, to the Executive’s estate: (i) that portion of Executive’s Base Salary that would otherwise have been paid to him for the month in which his death occurred, and (ii) any amounts due him pursuant to the Northrim Bank Savings Incentive Plan (401-K) and the Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, any supplemental deferred compensation plan, and any other death, insurance, employee benefit plan or stock benefit plan provided to Executive by the Employer, according to the terms of the respective plans.

f.Termination Definitions.

(i)“Change of Control.” For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events: (A) One (1) person or entity acquiring or otherwise becoming the owner of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of Employer’s outstanding common stock; (B) Replacement of a majority of the incumbent directors of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank by directors whose elections have not been supported by a majority of the Board of either company, as appropriate; (C) Dissolution or sale of fifty percent (50%) or more in value of the assets, of either Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank; or (D) A change “in the ownership or effective control” or “in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of Employer, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.

(ii)“Cause.” For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Cause” shall include termination because Executive (A) continually fails to substantially perform his duties with the Employer, (B) is adjudged guilty of a felony, any crime involving dishonesty or breach of trust or any crime involving a breach of his fiduciary duties to the Employer, (C) is willfully and continually failing to comply with any law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease and desist order of a regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Employer, (D) commits a material act of dishonesty or disloyalty related to the business of the Employer, or (E) is unable to substantially perform his duties with the Employer due to drug addiction or chronic alcoholism. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three‑quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Employer’s Board of Directors at a meeting of the Board called for such purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, he was guilty of conduct that constitutes Cause (as defined above) and specifying the conduct in detail.

(iii)“Disability.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean a medically diagnosed physical or mental impairment that may be expected to result in death, or to be of long, continued duration, and that renders Executive incapable of performing his essential job functions under this Agreement, even after he has been accorded reasonable accommodation. Employer’s Board of Directors, acting in good faith, in accordance with applicable law, shall make the final determination of whether Executive is suffering under any Disability (as herein defined) and, for purposes of making such

determination, may require Executive to submit himself to a physical examination by a physician mutually agreed upon by the Executive and Employer’s Board of Directors at Employer’s expense.

(iv)“Good Reason.” For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Good Reason” shall mean termination by Executive as a result of any material breach of this Agreement by Employer. Good Reason shall include, but not be limited to: (A) a material reduction in Executive’s compensation defined as a reduction equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of Executive’s then annual base salary, (B) a material reduction in Executive’s duties and responsibilities, but not merely a change in title, or (C) relocation of Executive’s primary workplace by more than fifty (50) miles. “Good Reason” will only be deemed to occur if, within ninety (90) days after a material reduction or change described above first occurs, the Executive provides notice to the Employer of the existence of Good Reason and of the Executive’s intended termination of employment due to Good Reason, and the Employer does not remove the Good Reason condition within ninety (90) days after receiving such notice from the Executive. The Executive’s written notice must explain the basis on which the Executive believes Good Reason exists, the cure period, and the date on which the Executive intends to terminate employment, which must be no later than six (6) monthsafter the existence of the Good Reason. The provisions of Section 5.f.(iv) are intended to comply with the Good Reason safe harbor provisions of Code Section 409A and applicable regulations.

(v)Termination from Employment. A termination from employment under this Agreement shall mean a “Separation from Service” as interpreted in accordance with Code Section 409A and generally meaning the date on which the Executive is no longer performing services for the Employer. The Executive shall not have a Separation from Service while on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as the Executive retains a right to reemployment under an applicable statute or contract. A leave of absence constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Executive will return to perform services.

6.Limit on Severance Payment for Change of Control.

Notwithstanding anything above in Section 5.a., if the severance payment provided for in that Section, together with any other payments which the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), the severance payment shall be reduced. The reduction shall be in an amount so that the present value of the total amount received by the Executive from the Employer or its affiliates and subsidiaries will be 2.99 times the Executive’s base amount (as defined in Section 280G of the Code) and so that no portion of the amounts received by the Executive shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (excise tax). Insofar as permitted by the Code, Employer shall reduce those elements of the severance pay package specified by the Executive, provided, however, that Employer will not reduce the SERP credits provided for in Section 5.b.(II). The determination as to whether any reduction in the severance payment is necessary shall be made by the Employer in good faith, and the determination shall be conclusive and binding on Executive. If through error or otherwise Executive should receive payments under this Plan, together with other payments the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, in excess of 2.99 times his base amount, Executive shall immediately repay the excess to Employer upon notification that an overpayment has been made.

7.Covenant Not To Compete.

a.Executive agrees that for the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year after this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.a. or 5.b., Executive will not directly or indirectly be employed by, own, manage, operate, support, join, or benefit in any way from any business activity within the states where Employer operates that is competitive with Employer’s business or reasonably anticipated

business of which Executive has knowledge. For purposes of the foregoing, Executive will be deemed to be connected with such business if the business is carried on by: (i) a partnership in which Executive is a general or limited partner; or (ii) a corporation of which Executive is a shareholder (other than a shareholder owning less than five percent (5%) of the total outstanding shares of the corporation), officer, director, employee or consultant, whether paid or unpaid. In the event of an alleged breach by Executive of this Section 7, the one-year noncompete period shall be extended until such breach or violation has been duly cured, and shall restart so that Employer has received the intended benefit of one uninterrupted year of noncompetition by Executive.

b.The parties agree that if a trial judge with jurisdiction over a dispute related to this Agreement should determine that the restrictive covenant set forth above is unreasonably broad, the parties authorize such trial judge to narrow the covenant so as to make it reasonable, given all relevant circumstances, and to enforce such covenant. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

8.Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.

a.During the term of Executive’s employment and thereafter, Executive agrees to hold Employer’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, and not disclose or use it at any time except as authorized by Employer and for Employer’s benefit. If anyone tries to compel Executive to disclose any Confidential Information, by subpoena or otherwise, Executive agrees immediately to notify Employer so that Employer may take any actions it deems necessary to protect its interests. Executive’s agreement to protect Employer’s Confidential Information applies both during the term of this Agreement and after employment ends, regardless of the reason it ends.

b.“Confidential Information” includes, without limitation, any information in whatever form that Employer considers to be confidential, proprietary, information and that is not publicly or generally available relating to Employer’s: trade secrets (as defined by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act); know-how; concepts; methods; research and development; product, content and technology development plans; marketing plans; databases; inventions; research data and mechanisms; software (including functional specifications, source code and object code); procedures; engineering; purchasing; accounting; marketing; sales; customers; advertisers; joint venture partners; suppliers; financial status; contracts or employees. Confidential Information includes information developed by Executive, alone or with others, or entrusted to Employer by its customers or others.

9.Nonsolicitation.

During the course of Executive’s employment and for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit or entice any of the following to cease, terminate or reduce any relationship with Employer or to divert any business from Employer: (a) any person who was an employee of Employer during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the termination of Executive’s employment; (b) any customer or client of Employer; or (c) any prospective customer or client of Employer from whom Executive actively solicited business within the last one (1) year of Executive’s employment. In the event of an alleged breach by Executive of this Section 9, the one-year nonsolicitation period shall be extended until such breach or violation has been duly cured, and shall restart so that Employer has received the intended benefit of one uninterrupted year of nonsolicitation by Executive.

10.Non-Disparagement.

Executive will not, during the Term or after the termination or expiration of this Agreement or Executive’s employment, make disparaging statements, in any form, about Employer’s officers, directors, agents, employees, products or services which Executive knows, or has reason to believe, are false or misleading.

11.Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate.

a.Except as provided in Section 11.b., in the event of a dispute or claim between Executive and Employer related to Employee’s employment or termination of employment, all such disputes or claims will be resolved exclusively by confidential arbitration in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). This means that the parties agree to waive their rights to have such disputes or claims decided in court by a jury. Instead, such disputes or claims will be resolved by an impartial AAA arbitrator whose decision will be final.

b.The only disputes or claims that are not subject to arbitration are any claims by Executive for workers’ compensation or unemployment benefits, and any claim by Executive for benefits under an employee benefit plan that provides its own arbitration procedure. Also, Executive and Employer may seek equitable relief (such as an injunction or declaratory relief) in court in appropriate circumstances. Specifically, Executive recognizes that Employer does not have an adequate remedy at law to protect its business from Executive’s breach of Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, and therefore Employer shall be entitled to bring an action for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunctive relief pre-arbitration, in the event of any actual or threatened breach by Executive of Sections 7, 8, or 9. In such court proceeding, Employer shall not be required to post a bond or other security, and Employer may also be awarded actual damages caused by Executive’s breach of Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement as well as repayment of all or a portion of any severance that Employer previously paid to Executive.

c.Except as provided by section 11.b., the arbitration procedure will afford Executive and Employer the full range of legal, equitable, and/or statutory remedies. Employer will pay all costs that are unique to arbitration, except that the party who initiates arbitration will pay the filing fee charged by AAA. Executive and Employer shall be entitled to discovery sufficient to adequately arbitrate their claims, including access to essential documents and witnesses, as determined by the arbitrator and subject to limited judicial review. In order for any judicial review of the arbitrator’s decision to be successfully accomplished, the arbitrator will issue a written decision that will decide all issues submitted and will reveal the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

12.Miscellaneous.

a.This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to Executive’s employment with Employer, and is subject to modification or amendment only upon agreement in writing signed by both parties.

b.This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties, except that Employer’s rights and obligations may not be assigned.

c.If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then such provision shall be modified so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If such provision cannot be modified to be enforceable, the provision shall be severed from the Agreement

to the extent it is unenforceable. All other provisions and any partially enforceable provisions shall remain unaffected and shall remain in full force and effect.

d.In the event of any claim or dispute arising out of this Agreement, the party that substantially prevails shall be entitled to reimbursement of all expenses incurred in connection with such claim or dispute, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other professional fees. This paragraph shall apply to expenses incurred with or without suit, and in any judicial, arbitration or administrative proceedings, including all appeals therefrom.

e. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement to either party shall be given by personal service (i.e., via hand delivery) or by depositing a copy of such notice in the United States registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the following address, or such other address as addressee shall designate in writing:

Employer:

3111 “C” Street

Anchorage, AK 99503

Executive:

1985 Brandilyn Street

Anchorage, AK 99516

f.This Agreement shall in all respects, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, be governed by and construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Alaska.

g.This Agreement is intended to comply and shall be interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, including any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder. In the event that any provision of the Agreement would cause a benefit or amount provided hereunder to be subject to tax under the Internal Revenue Code prior to the time such amount is paid, such provision shall, without the necessity of further action by the signatories to this Agreement, be null and void as of the Effective Date.

h.Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no payment of any type or amount of compensation or benefits shall be made or owed by Employer to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to the extent that payment of such type or amount is restricted or prohibited by, is not permitted under, or has not received any required approval under, any applicable federal or state statute, regulation, rule, policy, order, opinion, interpretation or similar issuance, whether now in existence or hereafter adopted or imposed, including without limitation any provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or regulations promulgated thereunder, 12 USC 1828(k) or 12 CFR Part 359. In the event that any payment made to Executive hereunder, under any prior employment agreement or arrangement or otherwise is required under any applicable federal or state statute, regulation, rule, policy, order, opinion, interpretation or similar issuance or under any agreement with or policy or plan of Employer to be paid back to Employer, Executive shall upon written demand from Employer promptly pay such amount back to Employer.

The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 5, shall continue through December 31, 2015; provided, however, that on January 1, 2016 and each succeeding January 1, the Term shall automatically be extended for one additional year unless, not later than ninety (90) days prior to any such January 1, either party shall have given written notice to the other that it does not wish to extend the Term. In the event the Term is not extended, Executive shall have no rights to any of the severance payments or benefits continuation described in Section 5 except as specifically provided for in Section 5.a.

3.Duties.

The Executive will serve as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer of the Employer. Executive shall render such executive, management and administrative services and perform such tasks in connection with the affairs and overall operation of the Employer as is customary for her position, subject to the direction of Employer’s President and Board of Directors. Executive shall devote necessary time, attention and effort to Employer’s business in order to properly discharge her responsibilities under this Agreement.

4.Compensation, Benefits, Reimbursement and Profit Sharing.

a.Base Salary. In consideration for all services rendered by Executive during the term of this Agreement, Employer shall pay Executive an annual base salary (before all customary and proper payroll deductions) of $160,003 as adjusted from time to time (“Base Salary”). The Board of Directors of the Employer shall review Executive’s salary each year, in a manner consistent with that used for all management employees of the Employer, and in its sole discretion may adjust such salary commensurate with the Executive’s performance under this Agreement.

b.Profit Sharing Plan. Under the Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual profit share (“Profit Share”) based on performance as defined by the Board of Directors. Executive will be classified in the Executive Vice President tier under the Plan’s Responsibility Factors. If Employer is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to “material noncompliance of the Employer”, the Employer will recover from the Executive any incentive compensation during the three (3) years prior to the date of the restatement, in excess of what would have been paid under the restatement. Executive’s signature on this Agreement authorizes Employer to offset or deduct from any

compensation Employer may owe Executive, any excess payments (in whole or in part) that Executive may owe Employer due to such restatement(s).

c.Stock Incentive Plan. Executive shall be eligible for awards under the Employer’s Stock Incentive Plan. The type, timing and size of awards will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

d.Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) and Deferred Compensation Plan. Executive shall also be entitled to receive an annual contribution equal to five percent (5%) of annual Base Salary in accordance with the Employer’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, as may be adjusted at the discretion of the Board of Directors from time to time. The Executive may also participate in the Employer’s Deferred Compensation Plan.

e.Other Benefits. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Employer shall provide Executive with reasonable health insurance, disability and other employee benefits. Executive shall participate in all employee benefit plans and programs of Employer on a basis at least as favorable as that accorded to any other officer of Employer.

f.Expenses. Employer shall reimburse Executive for her reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, travel, entertainment, and similar expenses) incurred in performing and promoting the business of Employer. Executive shall present from time to time itemized accounts and receipts of any such expenses as required by Employer, subject to any limits of company policy and the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service, including the Internal Revenue Code, (referred to throughout this Agreement as “IRC” or the “Code”).

5.Termination of Agreement.

a.Termination Due to a Change of Control. If (A) Employer (either Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank) is subjected to a Change of Control (as defined in Section 5.f.(i)), and (B) either Employer or its assigns terminates Executive’s employment without Cause (either during the annual term of this Agreement or by refusing to extend this Agreement when the annual termination occurs every December 31) or Executive terminates her employment for Good Reason within 730 days of such Change of Control, then Employer shall pay Executive (i) all Base Salary earned and all reimbursable expenses incurred under this Agreement through such termination date; (ii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s highest Base Salary over the prior three (3) years; and (iii) and amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s average Profit Share over the prior three (3) year period. The amounts described in Section 5.a.(i), (ii) and (iii) herein shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the day on which employment is terminated. No payment will be made pursuant to Sections 5.a.(ii) and (iii) unless the Executive has signed an agreement, in a form acceptable to Employer, that releases and holds Employer harmless from all known and unknown claims and liabilities arising out of Executive’s employment with Employer or the performance of this Agreement (“Release Agreement”) and the Release Agreement has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

(I)Benefits Continuation.In addition, Executive shall be entitled to health and dental insurance benefits for a period of two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement. These benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

(II)Age and Service Credit.Executive shall also be entitled to receive age credit and credit for period of service towards all SERP plans for the remaining period of time covered by this Agreement. If Executive is hired by Employer, its assigns, any company in control of Employer, or any

company controlled by Employer during the period covered by this Agreement, then Executive will be entitled to be treated for all purposes relating to future compensation, and benefits, as if this Agreement had never been terminated and as if Executive had performed her responsibilities as an Executive throughout the period originally covered by this Agreement.

b.Termination by Employer Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment without Cause, or if Executive terminates her employment for Good Reason, Employer shall pay Executive in a lump sum: (i) all Base Salary earned and all reimbursable expenses incurred under this Agreement through such termination date; and (ii) an amount equal to one (1) times Executive’s highest Base Salary over the prior three (3) years. The amount described in 5.b.(i) herein shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the day on which employment is terminated. The amount described in 5.b.(ii) herein shall be paid on the first day of the month following a period of six (6) months after the termination of employment, provided that the payment may be made sooner if either (i) the amount does not exceed the IRC Safe Harbor or (ii) at the Executive’s election, the amount described in Section 5.a.(ii) is reduced to fit within the IRC Safe Harbor. No payment will be made pursuant to Section 5.a.(ii) unless the Executive has signed a Release Agreement which has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

(I)Benefits Continuation.In addition, Executive shall be entitled to health and dental insurance benefits for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of this Agreement. These benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

(II)Age and Service Credit.If Executive is hired by Employer, its assigns, any company in control of Employer, or any company controlled by Employer during the period covered by this Agreement, then Executive will be entitled to be treated for all purposes relating to future compensation, and benefits, as if this Agreement had never been terminated and as if Executive had performed her responsibilities as an Executive throughout the period originally covered by this Agreement.

c.Termination by Employer for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment for Cause or if Executive terminates her employment without Good Reason, Employer shall pay Executive upon the effective date of such termination only such Base Salary earned and expenses reimbursable under this Agreement incurred through such termination date. In such case, Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after termination under this Agreement.

d.Termination Due to Disability. If Employer terminates Executive’s employment on account of any mental or physical Disability that prevents Executive from performing her essential job functions, even with reasonable accommodation, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) all Base Salary earned and reimbursement for expenses incurred under this Agreement through the termination date, (ii) full Base Salary for the year following the termination date (less the amount of any payments received by Executive during such one (1) year period under any Employer‑sponsored disability plan), and (iii) health and dental insurance benefits for a period of one (1) year following the termination date, which benefits will be provided at Employer’s expense, but such period shall count towards the Employer’s continuation of coverage obligation under Section 4980B of Code (commonly referred to as “COBRA”). All such compensation shall be paid Executive in one (1) lump sum the first day of the month following a period of six (6) months after Executive’s employment was terminated, provided that Executive has signed a Release Agreement which has become irrevocable prior to the payment date.

If any disputed termination under Section 5.c. is subsequently determined to have been without Cause, Executive's recovery shall be limited to those payments and benefits set out under Section 5.b.

e.Termination Upon Death of Executive. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated upon the death of Executive. In such case, the Employer shall be obligated to pay to the surviving spouse of Executive, or if there is none, to the Executive’s estate: (i) that portion of Executive’s Base Salary that would otherwise have been paid to him for the month in which her death occurred, and (ii) any amounts due him pursuant to the Northrim Bank Savings Incentive Plan (401-K) and the Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, any supplemental deferred compensation plan, and any other death, insurance, employee benefit plan or stock benefit plan provided to Executive by the Employer, according to the terms of the respective plans.

f.Termination Definitions.

(i)“Change of Control.” For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events: (A) One (1) person or entity acquiring or otherwise becoming the owner of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of Employer’s outstanding common stock; (B) Replacement of a majority of the incumbent directors of Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank by directors whose elections have not been supported by a majority of the Board of either company, as appropriate; (C) Dissolution or sale of fifty percent (50%) or more in value of the assets, of either Northrim BanCorp, Inc. or Northrim Bank; or (D) A change “in the ownership or effective control” or “in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of Employer, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.

(ii)“Cause.” For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Cause” shall include termination because Executive (A) continually fails to substantially perform her duties with the Employer, (B) is adjudged guilty of a felony, any crime involving dishonesty or breach of trust or any crime involving a breach of her fiduciary duties to the Employer, (C) is willfully and continually failing to comply with any law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease and desist order of a regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Employer, (D) commits a material act of dishonesty or disloyalty related to the business of the Employer, or (E) is unable to substantially perform her duties with the Employer due to drug addiction or chronic alcoholism. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three‑quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Employer’s Board of Directors at a meeting of the Board called for such purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with her counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, he was guilty of conduct that constitutes Cause (as defined above) and specifying the conduct in detail.

(iii)“Disability.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean a medically diagnosed physical or mental impairment that may be expected to result in death, or to be of long, continued duration, and that renders Executive incapable of performing her essential job functions under this Agreement, even after he has been accorded reasonable accommodation. Employer’s Board of Directors, acting in good faith, in accordance with applicable law, shall make the final determination of whether Executive is suffering under any Disability (as herein defined) and, for purposes of making such determination, may require Executive to submit himself to a physical examination by a physician mutually agreed upon by the Executive and Employer’s Board of Directors at Employer’s expense.

(iv)“Good Reason.” For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Good Reason” shall mean termination by Executive as a result of any material breach of this Agreement by

Employer. Good Reason shall include, but not be limited to: (A) a material reduction in Executive’s compensation defined as a reduction equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of Executive’s then annual base salary, (B) a material reduction in Executive’s duties and responsibilities, but not merely a change in title, or (C) relocation of Executive’s primary workplace by more than fifty (50) miles. “Good Reason” will only be deemed to occur if, within ninety (90) days after a material reduction or change described above first occurs, the Executive provides notice to the Employer of the existence of Good Reason and of the Executive’s intended termination of employment due to Good Reason, and the Employer does not remove the Good Reason condition within ninety (90) days after receiving such notice from the Executive. The Executive’s written notice must explain the basis on which the Executive believes Good Reason exists, the cure period, and the date on which the Executive intends to terminate employment, which must be no later than six (6) monthsafter the existence of the Good Reason. The provisions of Section 5.f.(iv) are intended to comply with the Good Reason safe harbor provisions of Code Section 409A and applicable regulations.

(v)Termination from Employment. A termination from employment under this Agreement shall mean a “Separation from Service” as interpreted in accordance with Code Section 409A and generally meaning the date on which the Executive is no longer performing services for the Employer. The Executive shall not have a Separation from Service while on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as the Executive retains a right to reemployment under an applicable statute or contract. A leave of absence constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Executive will return to perform services.

6.Limit on Severance Payment for Change of Control.

Notwithstanding anything above in Section 5.a., if the severance payment provided for in that Section, together with any other payments which the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), the severance payment shall be reduced. The reduction shall be in an amount so that the present value of the total amount received by the Executive from the Employer or its affiliates and subsidiaries will be 2.99 times the Executive’s base amount (as defined in Section 280G of the Code) and so that no portion of the amounts received by the Executive shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (excise tax). Insofar as permitted by the Code, Employer shall reduce those elements of the severance pay package specified by the Executive. The determination as to whether any reduction in the severance payment is necessary shall be made by the Employer in good faith, and the determination shall be conclusive and binding on Executive. If through error or otherwise Executive should receive payments under this Plan, together with other payments the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, in excess of 2.99 times her base amount, Executive shall immediately repay the excess to Employer upon notification that an overpayment has been made.

7.Covenant Not To Compete.

a.Executive agrees that for the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year after this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.a. or 5.b., Executive will not directly or indirectly be employed by, own, manage, operate, support, join, or benefit in any way from any business activity within the states where Employer operates that is competitive with Employer’s business or reasonably anticipated business of which Executive has knowledge. For purposes of the foregoing, Executive will be deemed to be connected with such business if the business is carried on by: (i) a partnership in which Executive is a general or limited partner; or (ii) a corporation of which Executive is a shareholder (other than a shareholder owning less than five percent (5%) of the total outstanding shares of the corporation), officer, director, employee or consultant, whether paid or unpaid. In the event of an alleged breach by Executive of this Section 7, the one-year noncompete period shall be extended until such breach or violation has been duly

cured, and shall restart so that Employer has received the intended benefit of one uninterrupted year of noncompetition by Executive.

b.The parties agree that if a trial judge with jurisdiction over a dispute related to this Agreement should determine that the restrictive covenant set forth above is unreasonably broad, the parties authorize such trial judge to narrow the covenant so as to make it reasonable, given all relevant circumstances, and to enforce such covenant. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

8.Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.

a.During the term of Executive’s employment and thereafter, Executive agrees to hold Employer’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, and not disclose or use it at any time except as authorized by Employer and for Employer’s benefit. If anyone tries to compel Executive to disclose any Confidential Information, by subpoena or otherwise, Executive agrees immediately to notify Employer so that Employer may take any actions it deems necessary to protect its interests. Executive’s agreement to protect Employer’s Confidential Information applies both during the term of this Agreement and after employment ends, regardless of the reason it ends.

b.“Confidential Information” includes, without limitation, any information in whatever form that Employer considers to be confidential, proprietary, information and that is not publicly or generally available relating to Employer’s: trade secrets (as defined by the Uniform Trade Secrets Act); know-how; concepts; methods; research and development; product, content and technology development plans; marketing plans; databases; inventions; research data and mechanisms; software (including functional specifications, source code and object code); procedures; engineering; purchasing; accounting; marketing; sales; customers; advertisers; joint venture partners; suppliers; financial status; contracts or employees. Confidential Information includes information developed by Executive, alone or with others, or entrusted to Employer by its customers or others.

9.Nonsolicitation.

During the course of Executive’s employment and for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit or entice any of the following to cease, terminate or reduce any relationship with Employer or to divert any business from Employer: (a) any person who was an employee of Employer during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the termination of Executive’s employment; (b) any customer or client of Employer; or (c) any prospective customer or client of Employer from whom Executive actively solicited business within the last one (1) year of Executive’s employment. In the event of an alleged breach by Executive of this Section 9, the one-year nonsolicitation period shall be extended until such breach or violation has been duly cured, and shall restart so that Employer has received the intended benefit of one uninterrupted year of nonsolicitation by Executive.

10.Non-Disparagement.

Executive will not, during the Term or after the termination or expiration of this Agreement or Executive’s employment, make disparaging statements, in any form, about Employer’s officers, directors, agents, employees, products or services which Executive knows, or has reason to believe, are false or misleading.

11.Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate.

a.Except as provided in Section 11.b., in the event of a dispute or claim between Executive and Employer related to Employee’s employment or termination of employment, all such disputes or claims will be resolved exclusively by confidential arbitration in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). This means that the parties agree to waive their rights to have such disputes or claims decided in court by a jury. Instead, such disputes or claims will be resolved by an impartial AAA arbitrator whose decision will be final.

b.The only disputes or claims that are not subject to arbitration are any claims by Executive for workers’ compensation or unemployment benefits, and any claim by Executive for benefits under an employee benefit plan that provides its own arbitration procedure. Also, Executive and Employer may seek equitable relief (such as an injunction or declaratory relief) in court in appropriate circumstances. Specifically, Executive recognizes that Employer does not have an adequate remedy at law to protect its business from Executive’s breach of Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, and therefore Employer shall be entitled to bring an action for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunctive relief pre-arbitration, in the event of any actual or threatened breach by Executive of Sections 7, 8, or 9. In such court proceeding, Employer shall not be required to post a bond or other security, and Employer may also be awarded actual damages caused by Executive’s breach of Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement as well as repayment of all or a portion of any severance that Employer previously paid to Executive.

c.Except as provided by section 11.b., the arbitration procedure will afford Executive and Employer the full range of legal, equitable, and/or statutory remedies. Employer will pay all costs that are unique to arbitration, except that the party who initiates arbitration will pay the filing fee charged by AAA. Executive and Employer shall be entitled to discovery sufficient to adequately arbitrate their claims, including access to essential documents and witnesses, as determined by the arbitrator and subject to limited judicial review. In order for any judicial review of the arbitrator’s decision to be successfully accomplished, the arbitrator will issue a written decision that will decide all issues submitted and will reveal the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

12.Miscellaneous.

a.This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to Executive’s employment with Employer, and is subject to modification or amendment only upon agreement in writing signed by both parties.

b.This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties, except that Employer’s rights and obligations may not be assigned.

c.If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then such provision shall be modified so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If such provision cannot be modified to be enforceable, the provision shall be severed from the Agreement to the extent it is unenforceable. All other provisions and any partially enforceable provisions shall remain unaffected and shall remain in full force and effect.

d.In the event of any claim or dispute arising out of this Agreement, the party that substantially prevails shall be entitled to reimbursement of all expenses incurred in connection with such claim or dispute, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other professional fees. This paragraph shall apply to expenses incurred with or without suit, and in any judicial, arbitration or administrative proceedings, including all appeals therefrom.

e. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement to either party shall be given by personal service (i.e., via hand delivery) or by depositing a copy of such notice in the United States registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the following address, or such other address as addressee shall designate in writing:

Employer:

3111 “C” Street

Anchorage, AK 99503

Executive:

Address on file with Northrim BanCorp, Inc. Human Resources Department

f.This Agreement shall in all respects, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, be governed by and construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Alaska.

g.This Agreement is intended to comply and shall be interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, including any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder. In the event that any provision of the Agreement would cause a benefit or amount provided hereunder to be subject to tax under the Internal Revenue Code prior to the time such amount is paid, such provision shall, without the necessity of further action by the signatories to this Agreement, be null and void as of the Effective Date.

h.Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no payment of any type or amount of compensation or benefits shall be made or owed by Employer to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to the extent that payment of such type or amount is restricted or prohibited by, is not permitted under, or has not received any required approval under, any applicable federal or state statute, regulation, rule, policy, order, opinion, interpretation or similar issuance, whether now in existence or hereafter adopted or imposed, including without limitation any provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or regulations promulgated thereunder, 12 USC 1828(k) or 12 CFR Part 359. In the event that any payment made to Executive hereunder, under any prior employment agreement or arrangement or otherwise is required under any applicable federal or state statute, regulation, rule, policy, order, opinion, interpretation or similar issuance or under any agreement with or policy or plan of Employer to be paid back to Employer, Executive shall upon written demand from Employer promptly pay such amount back to Employer.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Company owns a 100% interest in Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC ("RML"), the parent company of Residential Mortgage, LLC ("Residential Mortgage") and a 50.1% interest in Northrim Benefits Group, LLC ("NBG") and consolidates their balance sheets and income statements into its financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to maintain consistency with the current year with no impact on net income or total shareholders’ equity. The Company determined that it operates in two primary operating segments: Community Banking and Home Mortgage Lending. Prior to December 2014, the Company operated in a single segment: Community Banking. The Company has evaluated events and transactions through May 8, 2015 for potential recognition or disclosure. Operating results for the interim period ended March 31, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2015. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

• Level 1:  Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange.  Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2:  Valuation is based upon quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

• Level 3:  Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market.  These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimation of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value disclosures.  All financial instruments are held for other than trading purposes.

Cash and cash equivalents: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet represent their fair values.

Investment securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available.  If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.  Investments in Federal Home Loan Bank stock are recorded at cost, which also represents fair value.

Loans held for sale:  Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet approximate their fair values.

Loans:  Fair values were generally determined by discounting both principal and interest cash flows on pools of loans expected to be collected using a discount rate for similar instruments with adjustments that the Company believes a market participant would consider in determining fair value. The Company estimates the cash flows expected to be collected using internal credit risk, interest rate and prepayment risk models that incorporate the Corporation’s best estimate of current key assumptions, such as default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds for the life of the loan. The carrying value of loans is presented net of the Allowance (see Note 8).  Impaired loans are carried at fair value.  Specific valuation allowances are included in the Allowance.

Purchased receivables: Fair values for purchased receivables are based on their carrying amounts due to their short duration and repricing frequency.  Generally, purchased receivables have a duration of less than one year.

Mortgage servicing rights: MSR are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are classified as Level 3. In order to determine the fair value of MSRs, the present value of net expected future cash flows is estimated. Assumptions used include market discount rates, anticipated prepayment speeds, escrow calculations, delinquency rates, and ancillary fee income net of servicing costs. The model assumptions are also compared to publicly filed information from several large MSR holders, as available.

Accrued interest receivable: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet represent their fair values.

Deposits: The fair value for deposits with stated maturities was determined by discounting contractual cash flows using current market rates for instruments with similar maturities. For deposits with no stated maturities, the carrying value was considered to approximate fair value and does not take into account the significant value of the cost advantage and stability of the Company's long-term relationships with depositors.

Accrued interest payable: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet represent their fair values.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements: Fair values for securities sold under repurchase agreements are based on their carrying amounts due to their short duration and repricing frequency.

Borrowings: Due to the short term nature of these instruments, the carrying amount of short-term borrowings reported in the balance sheet approximate the fair value.  Fair values for long-term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies currently offered interest rates to a schedule of aggregate expected monthly payments.

Contingent liability, earn-out payments related to acquisition of RML: The contingent liability for estimated earn-out payments included as a portion of the purchase price for RML is recorded in the balance sheet at it estimated fair value, and fair value adjustments to the liability are reported in other operating expense. The fair value for this contingent liability is estimated based on management's assessment of expected pre-tax income at RML over the remaining earn out period. These cash flows are discounted to present value using the appropriate FHLB borrowing rate, Inputs to this assessment include the general economic conditions in our markets that impact mortgage loan originations, current and anticipated trends in local market demand for mortgage, including interest rates, and RML's estimated market share.

Junior subordinated debentures: Fair value adjustments for junior subordinated debentures are based on discounted cash flows to maturity using current interest rates for similar financial instruments.  Management utilized a market approach to determine the appropriate discount rate for junior subordinated debentures.

Derivative instruments: The fair value of the interest rate lock commitments are estimated using quoted or published market prices for similar instruments, adjusted for factors such as pull-through rate assumptions based on historical information, where appropriate. The pull-through rate assumptions are considered Level 3 valuation inputs and are significant to the interest rate lock commitment valuation; as such, the interest rate lock commitment derivatives are classified as Level 3. Interest rate contracts are valued in a model, which uses as its basis a discounted cash flow technique incorporating credit valuation adjustments to reflect nonperformance risk in the measurement of fair value. Although the Bank has determined that the majority of inputs used to value its interest rate derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of March 31, 2015, the Bank has assessed the significance of the impact of these adjustments on the overall valuation of its interest rate positions and has determined that the they are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate derivatives. As a result, the Bank has classified its interest rate derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Assets subject to nonrecurring adjustment to fair value: The Company is also required to measure certain assets such as equity method investments, goodwill, intangible assets, impaired loans, and other real estate owned (“OREO”) at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP.  Any nonrecurring adjustments to fair value usually result from the write down of individual assets.

The Company uses either in-house evaluations or external appraisals to estimate the fair value of OREO and impaired loans as of each reporting date.  In-house appraisals are considered Level 3 inputs and external appraisals are considered Level 2 inputs. The Company’s determination of which method to use is based upon several factors.  The Company takes into account compliance with legal and regulatory guidelines, the amount of the loan, the size of the assets, the location and type of property to be valued and how critical the timing of completion of the analysis is to the assessment of value.  Those factors are balanced with the level of internal expertise, internal experience and market information available, versus external expertise available such as qualified appraisers, brokers, auctioneers and equipment specialists.

The Company uses external sources to estimate fair value for projects that are not fully constructed as of the date of valuation.  These projects are generally valued as if complete, with an appropriate allowance for cost of completion, including contingencies developed from external sources such as vendors, engineers and contractors.  The Company believes that recording other real estate owned that is not fully constructed based on as if complete values is more appropriate than recording other real estate owned that is not fully constructed using as is values.  We concluded that as-is-complete values are appropriate for these types of projects based on the accounting guidance for capitalization of project costs and subsequent measurement of the value of real estate.  GAAP specifically states that estimates and cost allocations must be reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reallocated based on revised estimates.  The Company adjusts the carrying value of other real estate owned in accordance with this guidance for increases in estimated cost to complete that exceed the fair value of the real estate at the end of each reporting period.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit: The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties.  For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates.  The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligation with the counterparties at the reporting date.

Limitations: Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument.  These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.  Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors.  These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. ASU 2014-01 permits an entity to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and should be applied prospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2014-01 in its consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2015. As a result, amortization expense related to the Company's investments in low income housing tax credit partnerships has been included in the line item entitled "Provision for income taxes" in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented.

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). The amendments to the Codification in ASU 2015-02 affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. The amendments in this update affect the following areas: 1) the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination, 2) evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest, 3) the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination, and 4) certain investment funds. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments to the Codification in ASU 2015-03 identify, evaluate, and improve areas of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

We purchase accounts receivable from our business customers and provide them with short-term working capital.  We provide this service to our customers in Alaska and in Washington and the greater west coast through Northrim Funding Services.  Our purchased receivable activity is guided by policies that outline risk management, documentation, and approval limits.  The policies are reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors.

Purchased receivables are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of a reserve for anticipated losses that have not yet been identified, and have a maturity of less than one year.    Purchased receivable balances are charged against this reserve when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely.  Management evaluates the adequacy of the reserve for purchased receivable losses based on historical loss experience by segment and class of receivable and its assessment of current economic conditions.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company has one segment and class of purchased receivables.  There were no purchased receivables past due at March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014, respectively, and there were no restructured purchased receivables at March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

Income on purchased receivables is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding using an effective interest method except when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the income or principal.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company is accruing income on all purchased receivable balances outstanding.

The following table summarizes the components of net purchased receivables for the periods indicated:

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company acquired Alaska Pacific on April 1, 2014. The Company did not record goodwill related to the acquisition of Alaska Pacific. The Company recorded a core deposit intangible of $623,000 related to deposits acquired from Alaska Pacific that will be amortized over its estimated useful life of ten years using an accelerated method. See Note 3 above for further discussion of this transaction.

The Company acquired the remaining 76.5% of RML on December 1, 2014. The Company recorded $14.8 million of goodwill and $950,000 of trade name intangible as part of the acquisition of RML. These assets have indefinite useful lives and are not amortized. See Note 3 above for further discussion of this transaction.

The Company performs goodwill impairment testing annually in accordance with the policy described in Note 1 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  There was no indication of impairment as of March 31, 2015. The Company continues to monitor the Company’s goodwill for potential impairment on an ongoing basis. No assurance can be given that there will not be an impairment charge to earnings during 2015 for goodwill impairment, if, for example, our stock price declines and trades at a significant discount to its book value, although there are many qualitative and quantitative factors that we analyze in determining the impairment of goodwill.

Alaska Pacific Bancshares, Inc.

On April 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Alaska Pacific Bancshares, Inc. ("Alaska Pacific") for a total purchase price of $13.9 million, which was comprised of the issuance of 290,212 shares of the Company’s common stock (at a volume weighted average closing price of $25.66 per share) and $6.4 million in cash. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the April 1, 2014 acquisition date. Estimated fair values recorded in the transaction are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's geographic footprint in Alaska.

The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of a bargain purchase gain of $170,000 and a core deposit intangible of $623,000, or 0.5% of core deposits. The bargain purchase gain represents the excess of the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired in excess of the purchase price and is included in Other Income in the Consolidated Statements of Income in this Form 10-Q. This acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase gain primarily due to the inclusion of certain adjustments to the purchase price for potential risks identified by the Company during the due diligence and price negotiation stages of the acquisition that were concluded in October of 2013. The Company has concluded that the potential risks identified at that time do not represent a liability to the Company and, accordingly, they have not been allocated any value in the application of the acquisition method of accounting.

A summary of the net assets acquired and the estimated fair value adjustments of Alaska Pacific are presented below:

Alaska Pacific purchased loans subject to the requirements of FASB ASC  310-30 Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The Company identified eighteen purchased credit impaired loans as of April 1, 2014. This group of loans consists primarily of commercial and commercial real estate loans, and unlike a pool of consumer mortgages, it is not practicable for the Company to analyze the accretable yield of these loans. As such, the Company has elected the cost recovery method of income recognition for these loans, and thus no accretable difference has been identified for these loans.

Purchased credit impaired loans at acquisition are presented below:

Contractually required principal payments		$7,553

The acquisition of Alaska Pacific is not considered significant to the Company’s financial statements. The operations of Alaska Pacific are included in our operating results from April 1, 2014, and we estimate that these operations added revenue of $1.9 million, non-interest expense of $1.5 million, and net income of $393,000, before taxes, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Alaska Pacific’s results of operations prior to the acquisition are not included in our operating results. Additionally, merger-related costs of $480,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 were incurred and expensed in connection with the acquisition of Alaska Pacific and recognized within the merger and acquisition expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 as if the acquisition of Alaska Pacific had occurred on January 1, 2014. The proforma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2014.

Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC

On December 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of 76.5% of the equity interest in RML, the parent company of Residential Mortgage, in a cash transaction valued at $29.5 million, resulting in RML becoming an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's presence in the mortgage lending business in Alaska. The fair value of the Company's equity interest in RML immediately prior to the acquisition was $9.0 million. The Company recorded a $3.0 million gain in the fourth quarter of 2014 as a result of remeasuring the Company's equity interest in RML immediately prior to the acquisition, which was included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income in the line item entitled "Gain on purchase of mortgage affiliate". The Company utilized a market value approach to value its equity interest in RML which included analysis of current trading values and historical acquisition multiples of comparable mortgage companies. The consideration transferred or transferable to the former owners of RML and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the December 1, 2014 acquisition date. Estimated fair values recorded in the transaction are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the amount of $14.8 million and a trade name intangible of $950,000. RML holds a 30% equity interest in Homestate Mortgage LLC.

The former owners of RML (the "sellers") will receive additional cash proceeds (the "earn-out" payments) based on the adjusted pretax earnings of RML for each of the twelve months periods ending November 30, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The Company recorded a $7.3 million liability as of December 1, 2014 as part of its purchase accounting for future earn-out payments. Per the purchase agreement, the earn-out payments are calculated as follows:

First tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $1,000,000 and less than or equal to $2,000,000	Payment will be calculated as product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings times 40%
Second tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $2,000,000 and less than or equal to $3,000,000	The first tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $2,000,000 and less than $3,000,000 times 50%
Third tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $3,000,000 and less than or equal to $4,000,000	The first tier plus the second tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $3,000,000 and less than $4,000,000 times 70%
Fourth tier earn- out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $4,000,000 and less than or equal to $6,000,000	The first, second and third tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $4,000,000 and less than $6,000,000 times 85%
Fifth tier earn-out payment	Adjusted pretax earnings greater than $6,000,000	The first, second, third and fourth tier earn-out payment, plus the product of amount of adjusted pretax earnings greater than $6,000,000 times 55%

The purchase agreement provides for these earn-out payments as a portion of the purchase price to be paid to the sellers in future periods, contingent on future events. Therefore we included an estimate of the acquisition-date fair value of the contingent consideration of $7.3 million as part of the cost of the combination. The accounting treatment of the contingent consideration to be paid to those of the sellers who continue employment with the Company was evaluated to determine whether the amounts represent purchase consideration or a separate transaction, such as post-transaction employee compensation. Factors evaluated require significant judgment and include, among other factors; consideration of the terms of continuing employment, levels of post-transaction compensation, ownership interest of the sellers/employees, linkage of the contingent consideration to the transaction date combination valuation, and any other agreements or matters related to the transaction.

Based on an evaluation of the factors surrounding the transaction and the terms of the purchase agreement, the amount due under the earn-out provision was accounted for as acquisition consideration. We concluded that the contingent consideration to be paid to the sellers/employees was a significant component of the transaction date valuation of the acquired business. The calculation of the contingent payment was based upon factors established at the date of the transaction to be paid upon meeting the established earnings criteria of RML. The post transaction employment arrangements of the continuing employees are at market rates, and the formula for determining the contingent consideration is consistent with the business valuation methodologies, based upon a multiplier of earnings recognized from RML for five twelve month periods following the acquisition.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded an adjustment to increase the contingent liability by $1.5 million. The increase in the contingent liability resulted from the excess of RML's pretax income from December 1, 2014 through the end of the first quarter of 2015 over and above estimates made at the close of the purchase of RML. The adjustment to the contingent liability for estimated future earn-out payments is recorded in the line item titled "Change in fair value, RML earn-out liability" in other operating expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The total contingent liability as of March 31, 2015 is $8.8 million.

The acquisition of RML is not considered significant to the Company’s financial statements under Regulation S-X; however, the Company has determined that the acquisition results in a new reporting segment, Home Mortgage Lending.

The operations of RML are included in our operating results from December 1, 2014, and added revenue of $7.4 million, non-interest expense of $5.1 million, and net income of $2.3 million, before taxes, for the three month period ended March 31, 2015. RML’s results of operations prior to the December 1, 2014 acquisition are included in our operating results under the equity method. Additionally, merger-related costs of $507,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 were incurred and expensed in connection with the acquisition of RML and recognized within the merger and acquisition expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 as if the acquisition of RML had occurred on January 1, 2014.

Loans are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of charge-offs, unamortized fees and direct loan origination costs.  Loan balances are charged-off to the allowance for loan losses ("Allowance") when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely.  Interest income on loans is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding except for loans in a nonaccrual status.  All classes of loans are placed on nonaccrual and considered impaired when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the interest or principal.  Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans are directly applied to the principal balance.  Generally, a loan may be returned to accrual status when the delinquent principal and interest is brought current in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement.  Additionally, certain ongoing performance criteria, which generally includes a performance period of six months, must be met in order for a loan to be returned to accrual status.  Loans are reported as past due when installment payments, interest payments, or maturity payments are past due based on contractual terms.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $4.8 million and  $4.7 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Nonaccrual loans at the periods indicated, by segment, are presented below:

The Company considers a loan to be impaired when it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Once a loan is determined to be impaired, the impairment is measured based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except that if the loan is collateral dependent, the impairment is measured by using the fair value of the loan’s collateral.  Nonperforming loans greater than $50,000 are individually evaluated for impairment based upon the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, and payment record, and the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors.

At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be impaired was $12.8 million and $11.3 million, respectively.  The following table presents information about impaired loans by class as of the periods indicated:

Total Impaired Loans		$13,911		$155		$6,231		$115

As described in Note 3 above, the Company acquired 18 purchased credit impaired loans from Alaska Pacific on April 1, 2014 subject to the requirements of FASB ASC  310-30 Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. This group of loans consists primarily of commercial and commercial real estate loans, and unlike a pool of consumer mortgages, it is not practicable for the Company to analyze the accretable yield of these loans. As such, the Company has elected the cost recovery method of income recognition for these loans, and thus no accretable difference has been identified for these loans. At the acquisition date, April 1, 2014, the fair value of this group of loans was $3.9 million. The carrying value of these loans as of March 31, 2015 is $2.8 million.

Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) totaled $9.0 million and  $7.7 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.  A TDR is a loan to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that the Company is granting the borrower a concession that it would not grant otherwise.  The Company has granted a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications.  The modifications granted can generally be described in the following categories:

Rate Modification:  A modification in which the interest rate is changed.

Term Modification:  A modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments, or frequency of payments is changed.

Payment Modification:  A modification in which the dollar amount of the payment is changed, or in which a loan is converted to interest only payments for a period of time is included in this category.

Combination Modification:  Any other type of modification, including the use of multiple categories above. 

AQR pass graded loans included above in the impaired loan data are loans classified as TDRs. By definition, TDRs are considered impaired loans. All of the Company's TDRs are included in impaired loans.

The following table presents newly restructured loans that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015:

The Company had no commitments to extend additional credit to borrowers whose terms have been modified in TDRs. There were no charge offs in the three months ended March 31, 2015 on loans that were later classified as TDRs.

All TDRs are also classified as impaired loans and are included in the loans individually evaluated for impairment in the calculation of the Allowance. There were two TDRs with a total recorded investment of $1.4 million and a specific impairment amount totaling $215,000 at March 31, 2015 and no TDRs with specific impairment at December 31, 2014, respectively.

The loans in the following table are past due, and they are nonaccrual loans. The following table presents TDRs that occurred during the last twelve months that subsequently defaulted, for the periods ending March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

There were fourteen and twenty-nine available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, that have been in a loss position for less than twelve months. There were no securities as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 that have been in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve months.  The contractual terms of the investments in a loss position do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell, nor is it required to sell these investments until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

At March 31, 2015, $56.3 million in securities, or 22%, of the investment portfolio was pledged for deposits and borrowings, as compared to $54.1 million, or 19%, at December 31, 2014. We held no securities of any single issuer (other than government sponsored entities) that exceeded 10% of our shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The amortized cost and fair values of debt securities at March 31, 2015, are distributed by contractual maturity as shown below.  Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.  Although preferred stock has no stated maturity, it is aggregated in the calculation of weighted average yields presented below in the category of investments that mature in ten years or more.

Stock Incentive Plan

Stock Incentive Plan

The Company adopted the 2014 Stock Option Plan (“2014 Plan”) following shareholder approval of the 2014 Plan at the 2014 Annual Meeting.  Subsequent to the adoption of the 2014 Plan, no additional grants may be issued under the prior plans.  The 2014 Plan provides for grants of up to 350,000 shares.

Stock Options:  Under the 2014 Plan and previous plans, certain key employees have been granted the option to purchase set amounts of common stock at the market price on the day the option was granted.  Optionees, at their own discretion, may cover the cost of exercise through the exchange at the then fair value of already owned shares of the Company’s stock.  Options are granted for a 10-year period and vest on a pro-rata basis over the initial three years from grant.

The Company measures the fair value of each stock option at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized $22,000 and $16,000, respectively, in stock option compensation expense as a component of salaries and other personnel expense.

There were no exercises of stock options in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  

There were no stock options granted in the first quarter of 2015.

Restricted Stock Units:  The Company grants restricted stock units to certain key employees periodically.  Recipients of restricted stock units do not pay any cash consideration to the Company for the shares and receive all dividends with respect to such shares when the shares vest. Restricted stock units cliff vest at the end of a three-year time period. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized $96,000 and $91,000, respectively, in restricted stock unit compensation expense as a component of salaries and other personnel expense.

There were no restricted stock units granted in the first quarter of 2015.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. ASU 2014-01 permits an entity to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and should be applied prospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2014-01 in its consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2015. As a result, amortization expense related to the Company's investments in low income housing tax credit partnerships has been included in the line item entitled "Provision for income taxes" in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented.

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). The amendments to the Codification in ASU 2015-02 affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. The amendments in this update affect the following areas: 1) the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination, 2) evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest, 3) the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination, and 4) certain investment funds. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments to the Codification in ASU 2015-03 identify, evaluate, and improve areas of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives

Derivatives

The Company enters into commercial loan interest rate swap agreements in order to provide commercial loan customers the ability to convert from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these agreements, the Company enters into a variable-rate loan agreement with a customer in addition to a swap agreement that effectively converts the customer’s variable rate loan into a fixed rate. The Company then simultaneously enters into a corresponding swap agreement with a third party financial institution (“counterparty”) in order to offset its exposure on the fixed component of the customer’s interest rate swap. The Company has an agreement with its counterparty that contains a provision that provides that if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreement. This agreement also requires that the Company and the counterparty collateralize any fair value shortfalls that exceed $250,000 with eligible collateral, which includes cash and securities backed with the full faith and credit of the federal government. Similarly, the Company could be required to settle its obligations under the agreement if specific regulatory events occur, such as if the Company were issued a prompt corrective action directive or a cease and desist order, or if certain regulatory ratios fall below specified levels. The Company pledged $262,000 and zero in available for sale securities to collateralize fair value shortfalls on interest rate swap agreements as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The interest rate swap agreements with our customers and the counterparty are not designated as hedging instruments under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB ASC 815, rather they are accounted for as free standing derivatives with changes in fair value reported in income. The Company had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $23.0 million and $23.6 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. At March 31, 2015, the notional amount of interest rate swaps is made up of two swaps totaling $11.5 million, a variable to fixed rate swap to a commercial loan customer and two swaps totaling $11.5 million fixed to variable rate swap with a counterparty. Changes in fair value from these four interest rate swaps offset each other in the first quarter of 2015. The Company did not recognize any fee income related to interest rate swaps in the three month periods ending March 31, 2015 or 2014, respectively. Interest rate swap income is recorded in other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company also uses derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in the fair values of interest rate lock commitments. None of the Company’s derivatives are designated as hedging instruments. Rather, they are accounted for as free-standing derivatives, or economic hedges, with changes in the fair value of the derivatives reported in income. The Company primarily utilizes forward interest rate contracts in its derivative risk management strategy.

RML enters into commitments to originate residential mortgage loans, and it enters into forward delivery contracts to sell mortgage-backed securities to broker/dealers at specific prices and dates in order to hedge the interest rate risk in its residential mortgage loan commitments. Market risk with respect to commitments to originate loans arises from changes in the value of contractual positions due to changes in interest rates. RML had commitments to originate mortgage loans held for sale totaling$81.2 million and $39.6 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Changes in the value of RML's interest rate derivatives are recorded in the mortgage banking income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:
