        In April 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-02 Receivables (Topic 310) A Creditor's Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. This Update gives creditors additional guidance and clarification for evaluating whether or not a creditor has granted a concession and whether or not a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties for purposes of determining whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The amendments in this Update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011 and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. No significant impact to amounts reported in the consolidated financial position or results of operations occurred from the adoption of ASU 2011-02.

        In April 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-03 Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. The purpose of this Update is to improve the accounting for repurchase agreements and other agreements that entitle and obligate transferors to repurchase or redeem financial assets prior to their maturity. This Update removes from the assessment of effective control, the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem financial assets at substantially the agreed terms even in the event of default by the transferee and the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. The amendments in this Update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011 and should be applied prospectively to new or modification transactions that occur after the effective date. No significant impact to amounts reported in the consolidated financial position or results of operations is expected from the adoption of ASU 2011-03.

        In May 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-04 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The purpose of this Update is to change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This Update clarifies the Board's intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and includes changes to particular principles or requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. In addition, to improve consistency in application across jurisdictions some changes in wording are necessary to ensure that U.S. GAAP and IFRS fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are described in the same way. The amendments in this Update are effective during interim and annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. No significant impact to amounts reported in the consolidated financial position or results of operations is expected from the adoption of ASU 2011-04.

        In June 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-05 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The purpose of this Update is to indicate that an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. Regardless of whether an entity chooses to present comprehensive income in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. In December 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-12 which deferred the effective date of this amendment until the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011 which should be applied retrospectively.

        In September 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-08 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The purpose of this amendment is to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. This amendment permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. These amendments are effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. No significant impact to amounts reported in the consolidated financial position or results of operations is expected from the adoption of ASU 2011-08. The Bank elected not to early adopt this update.

        In December 2011, the FASB issued (ASU) 2011-11 Balance Sheet (Topic 210) Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The purpose of this amendment is to facilitate comparison between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of U.S. GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. This amendment requires an entity to address significant differences in amounts presented in the statements of financial position by disclosing both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset.
