PREFERRED STOCK

On September 30, 2009, we sold in a private placement 3,710 shares, or $3.7 million, of 8% Non-Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series 2009, $1.00 par value, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series 2009 Preferred Stock”), based on the private placement exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506 of Regulation D.

In late 2011, we sold pursuant to both subscription rights distributed to our common shareholders and to a supplemental public offering 12,000 shares, or $6.0 million, of 8% Non-Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series 2011, $1.00 par value, with a liquidation preference of $500 per share (the “Series 2011 Preferred Stock”).

Both the Series 2009 and Series 2011 Preferred Stock paid noncumulative dividends, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, at a rate of 8.0% per annum.  Dividends declared were payable quarterly in arrears on the 1st day of March, June, September and December of each year.  The Series 2009 and Series 2011 Preferred Stock qualified as Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes.

On March 12, 2015, we converted all outstanding shares of our 8% Non-Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series 2009, $1.00 par value, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series 2009 Preferred Stock”) and our 8% Non-Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series 2011, $1.00 par value, with a liquidation preference of $500 per share (the “Series 2011 Preferred Stock”) to common shares.
