Reconciliation of Assets on Recurring Basis Using Significant Unobservable Inputs

The table below presents a reconciliation for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). These instruments were valued using pricing models and discounted cash flow methodologies. The following table provides a reconciliation for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the periods indicated:

Discounted cash flow methodology
Pooled trust preferred securities	$	6,321	$	3,841	Cumulative prepayment	0% - 75%	0% - 76%	7.0%	7.2%
					Cumulative default	3% - 100%	3% - 100%	13.9%	18.1%

Appraisals of collateral (1)
Impaired loans	$	8,196	$	10,328
Other real estate owned and foreclosed assets	$	7,743	$	7,633


(1)	Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various Level 3 inputs which are not identifiable. Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic factors and estimated liquidation expenses. The range of these possible adjustments may vary.

(a)	The fair values presented are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments and/or discounted cash flow analysis.


(b)	Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities or cash flows.


(c)	Fair value was determined by discounting anticipated future cash payments using rates currently available for instruments with similar remaining maturities.


(d)	Fair value was determined based upon market prices of securities with similar terms and maturities.

Disclosures include, but are not limited to, fair value measurements recorded and the reasons for the measurements, level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements are categorized and transfers between levels 1 and 2. Nonrecurring fair value measurements are those that are required or permitted in the statement of financial position in particular circumstances.
