DISCLOSURE ABOUT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL INITIATIVE PROGRAM
NOTE S – DISCLOSURE ABOUT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL INITIATIVE PROGRAM
 
On September 29, 2010, the Company closed a transaction whereby the Treasury exchanged its 17,910 shares of Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series UST and Series UST/W for 17,910 shares of a new series of preferred stock designated Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series CD (the “CDCI Preferred Shares”).  As a result of the Exchange, the Company is no longer participating in the TARP Capital Purchase Program being administered by Treasury and is now participating in Treasury's TARP Community Development Capital Initiative (the “CDFI”).  In comparison with the rates required by the TARP CPP, the CDCI Preferred Shares entitle the holder to an annual dividend of 2% of the liquidation value of the shares, payable quarterly in arrears, for a period of eight years or until repayment of the principal, whichever expires first.  If  in arrears, for a period of eight years or until repayment of the principal, whichever expires first.  If the principal remains outstanding at the end of eight years, the annual dividend rate will rise to 9%.  In addition, if the Company fails to retain its certification as a Community Development Financial Institution, the annual rate will be 5% when noncompliance exceeds 180 days and 9% for noncompliance exceeding 270 days.  Certification requires the Company to have a primary mission of promoting community development in targeted areas with a goal to serve the “unserved” markets.
