Mortgage-backed securities totaling $1.6 million at amortized cost and $1.7 million at fair value are excluded from the table above as their expected lives are expected to be shorter than the contractual maturity date due to principal prepayments.

Based on its detailed review of the securities portfolio, the Company believes that as of December 31, 2015, securities with unrealized loss positions shown above do not represent impairments that are other-than-temporary. The review of the portfolio for other-than-temporary impairment considered the percentage and length of time the fair value of an investment is below book value as well as general market conditions, changes in interest rates, credit risk, whether the Company has the intent to sell the securities and whether it is not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell the securities before the anticipated recovery.
The number of securities in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2015 totaled 99, compared with 163 at December 31, 2014. All temporarily impaired investment securities were investment grade at December 31, 2015.
