The investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (“FHLB”) stock is a required investment related to CalFirst Bank’s borrowing arrangements with the FHLB. The FHLB obtains its funding primarily through issuance of consolidated obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank system.  The U.S. Government does not guarantee these obligations, and each of the 12 FHLB’s are generally jointly and severally liable for repayment of each other’s debt.  Therefore, the Company’s investment could be adversely impacted by the financial operations of the FHLB and actions by the Federal Housing Finance Agency.  These investments have no stated maturity.

The mortgage-backed investments consist of a U.S. agency issued security.  The Company has determined that it has the ability to hold this investment until maturity and, given the Company’s intent to do so, anticipates that it will realize the full carrying value of its investment and carries the security at amortized cost.
