Note 7 – Subordinated Notes Payable to Subsidiary Trust

 

On October 25, 2006, Chino Statutory Trust I (the Trust), a newly formed Connecticut statutory business trust and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued an aggregate of $3.0 million of principal amount of Capital Securities (the Trust Preferred Securities) and $93,000 in Common Securities. The securities issued by the Trust are fully guaranteed by the Company with respect to distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, redemption or repayment. The entire proceeds to the Trust from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities were used by the Trust to purchase $3,000,000 in principal amount of the Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due December 15, 2036 issued by the Company (the Subordinated Debt Securities). The Company issued an additional $93,000 in principal amount of the Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due December 15, 2036, in exchange for its investment in the Trust’s Common Securities.

 

The Subordinated Debt Securities bore interest at 6.795% for the first five years from October 27, 2006 to December 15, 2011. On December 15, 2011 the interest rate became a variable interest rate equal to LIBOR (adjusted quarterly) plus 1.68%. LIBOR at December 15, 2011 was 0.54625% resulting in an interest rate of 2.22625% from December 15, 2011 to March 14, 2012. LIBOR at March 15, 2012 was 0.473650% resulting in an interest rate of 2.15365% from March 15 to June 14, 2012.

 

As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, accrued interest payable to the Trust amounted to $123,114 and $8,494, respectively. Interest for Trust Preferred Securities amounted to $18,203 and $50,963, respectively, for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company relies on dividends from the Bank in order to make such payments and the Bank is restricted from making dividend payments to the Company without prior supervisory non-objection from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”). In addition, the Company must obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the “FRB”) prior to making such payments. Therefore, the Company has elected to defer three quarterly interest payments beginning with the payment due September 15, 2011, pending the conclusion of the Company’s stock offering.
