The Corporation has evaluated gross unrealized losses that exist within the portfolio and considers them temporary in nature.  The Corporation has both the ability and the intent to hold the investment securities until their respective maturities and therefore does not anticipate the realization of the temporary losses.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities pledged to secure FHLB borrowings and customer relationships were $14.029 million and $14.038 million, respectively, at September 30, 2017.
