PART I

Item 1. Business.

Background

Ohio Legacy Corp (“Ohio Legacy”) is a bank holding company incorporated in July 1999 under the laws of the State of Ohio. Ohio Legacy has one wholly-owned subsidiary, Premier Bank & Trust, National Association (“Bank”) (formerly known as Ohio Legacy Bank, National Association). On March 23, 2010, the Bank received approval from the Comptroller of the Currency of its application to commence fiduciary powers pursuant to 12 USC 92a. Subsequently, the Bank opted to include “Trust” in its name and announced a name change to Premier Bank and Trust, N.A. effective April 2010. Unless otherwise noted, the “Company,” “us,” “we,” and “our” refer to Ohio Legacy, together with the Bank. The Bank opened for business on October 3, 2000.

Ohio Legacy’s principal executive offices are located at 600 South Main Street, North Canton, Ohio 44720, and its telephone office is (330) 499-1900. Shares of Ohio Legacy’s common stock, each without par value, are listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “OLCB.”

Ohio Legacy maintains an Internet Web site at www.ohiolegacycorp.com (this uniform resource locator, or URL, is an inactive textual reference only and is not intended to incorporate Ohio Legacy’s Internet Web site into this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “Form 10-K”)). Ohio Legacy makes available free of charge on or through its Internet Web site Ohio Legacy’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as well as Ohio Legacy’s definitive proxy statements filed pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, as soon as reasonably practicable after Ohio Legacy electronically files such material with, or furnishes it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Recapitalization

On February 19, 2010, Ohio Legacy closed (i) the sale of 15 million shares of its common stock, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement assigned by Excel Financial, LLC (“Excel Financial”) to Excel Bancorp, LLC (“Excel Bancorp”) at a price of $1.00 per share and (ii) the sale of 2.5 million shares of its common stock to other local investors at a price of $1.00 per share. The aggregate proceeds from the sales were $17.5 million. Through its purchase of 15 million shares of Ohio Legacy’s common stock, Excel Bancorp, which did not own any Ohio Legacy securities before the closing, acquired approximately 76% of Ohio Legacy’s total outstanding shares of common stock. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding these transactions.

Products and Services

The Company, through the Bank’s four branch offices and a trust office, provides retail and commercial banking services to its customers located primarily in Stark, Wayne and Belmont Counties in Ohio. These products include the acceptance of deposits for demand, savings, and time accounts and the servicing of those accounts, cash management and electronic funds transfer services, safe deposit box facilities and courier services, online internet banking with bill pay service, commercial loans, real estate mortgage loans, installment and personal loans and night depository facilities to customers. The Bank also began to offer trust, wealth management and investment brokerage services in April 2010.

Commercial and Construction Lending Products

Commercial loans are primarily variable rate and include operating lines of credit and term loans made to small businesses based primarily on their ability to repay the loan from cash flows. These loans typically are secured by business assets such as equipment or inventory. For entity borrowers, the Bank generally obtains a personal guarantee of the business owner. As compared to retail lending, which includes residential real estate, personal installment loans and automobile loans, commercial lending entails significant additional risks. These loans typically involve larger loan balances and are generally dependent on the businesses’ cash flows and may be subject to adverse conditions in the general economy or in a specific industry. Management reviews the borrower’s cash flows when deciding whether or not to grant the credit. Management also evaluates if estimated future cash flows will be adequate to service principal and interest of the new obligation in addition to existing obligations. Additionally, the company’s historical performance, business principles and industry are reviewed prior to the extension of credit. Commercial loans comprised 14.5% of the Bank’s loan portfolio at December 31, 2010.

Commercial real estate loans are secured primarily by borrower-occupied business real estate or multifamily residential real estate, such as apartment buildings, and are dependent on the ability of the related business to generate adequate cash flow to service the debt. These loans primarily carry variable interest rates. Commercial real estate loans generally are originated with a loan-to-value ratio of 80% or less. Management performs much the same analysis when deciding whether to grant a commercial real estate loan as it performs when deciding whether to grant a commercial loan. Commercial real estate and multifamily real estate loans comprised 47.7% of the Bank’s loan portfolio at December 31, 2010.

Construction loans are secured by residential and business real estate. Construction loans generally involve greater underwriter and default risks than do loans on existing real estate due to the inherent uncertainties in construction costs and the difficulty in valuing property under construction. The Bank’s construction lending program is established in a manner to minimize risk of this type of lending by not making a significant number of loans on speculative projects located outside its geographic marketplace. While not required to do so contractually, the Bank may finance the permanent loan at the end of the construction phase. Construction loans also are generally made in amounts of 80% or less of the value of collateral. Construction loans comprised 2.1% of the Bank’s loan portfolio at December 31, 2010.

Certain risks are involved in granting loans that primarily relate to the borrower’s ability and willingness to repay the debt. Before the Bank extends a new loan to a customer, these risks are assessed through a review of the borrower’s past and current credit history, the collateral being used to secure the transaction in case the customer does not repay the debt, cash flows of any related businesses, the availability of personal guarantees and other factors. Once the decision has been made to extend credit, the Bank’s credit officers monitor these factors throughout the life of the loan.

Retail Lending Products

Residential real estate loans, primarily fixed rate, and home equity lines of credit, primarily variable rate, are secured by the borrower’s residence. These loans are made based on the borrower’s ability to make repayment from employment and other income. Using secondary market approval standards, management assesses the borrower’s ability to repay the debt through a review of credit history and ratings, verification of employment and other income, review of debt-to-income ratios and other measures of repayment ability. The Bank generally makes these loans in amounts of 90% or less of the value of collateral. An appraisal is obtained from a qualified real estate appraiser for substantially all loans secured by real estate. Beginning in November 2006, the Bank began originating residential real estate loans and selling these loans to the secondary market. It is the strategy of the Company going forward to continue to sell long term, fixed rate loans in accordance with secondary market guidelines.

Consumer installment loans to individuals include loans secured by automobiles and other consumer assets, including home equity loans on personal residences. Consumer loans for the purchase of new automobiles generally do not exceed 85% of the purchase price of the car. Loans for used cars generally do not exceed the average wholesale or trade-in value of the car as stipulated in a recent auto industry used car price guide. Overdraft protection loans are unsecured personal lines of credit to individuals of demonstrated good credit character with reasonably assured sources of income and satisfactory credit histories. Consumer loans generally involve more risk than residential mortgage loans because of the type and nature of collateral and, in certain types of consumer loans, the absence of collateral. Since these loans generally are repaid from ordinary income of an individual or family unit, repayment may be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, ill health or a general decline in economic conditions. The Bank assesses the borrower’s ability to make repayment through a review of credit history, credit ratings, debt-to-income ratios and other measures.

At December 31, 2010, residential real estate loans comprised 29.1% and consumer and home equity loans comprised 6.7% of the Bank’s total loans.

Deposit Products

The Bank offers a broad range of deposit products, such as personal and business checking, savings and money market accounts, certificates of deposit, internet banking, cash management and direct-deposit services. Deposit accounts are tailored to each market area at rates competitive with those offered in Wayne and Stark Counties in Ohio and consistent with the Bank’s asset-liability management goals. All deposit accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) up to the maximum amount permitted by law. The Bank solicits deposit accounts from individuals, businesses, associations, financial institutions and government entities. The Bank is not significantly affected by seasonal activity or large deposits of any individual depositor.

Employees

At December 31, 2010, the Bank had 70 employees, including 50 full-time employees. The Bank provides a number of benefits to its employees, such as health, disability and life insurance for all qualified employees. No employee is represented by a union or collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to be good. Ohio Legacy has no employees who are not also employed by the Bank.

Competition

The Bank operates in a highly competitive industry. In its primary market areas of Stark, Wayne, and Belmont Counties in Ohio, the Bank competes for new deposit accounts and loans with numerous other commercial banks, both large regional banks and smaller community banks, as well as savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies, insurance companies, brokerage firms and investment companies. Many of our competitors enjoy the benefits of greater financial resources, advanced technology, fewer regulatory constraints and lower cost structures. The Bank’s ability to generate earnings is impacted in part by interest rates offered on loans and deposits, and by changes in the rates on loans and various other securities which comprise the Bank’s investment portfolio. The Bank is competitive with respect to the interest rates and loan fees it charges, as well as in the variety of accounts and interest rates it offers to customers. The dominant pricing mechanisms on loans are the Prime interest rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, U.S. Treasury Note rates with three-year or five-year maturities, and the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The interest margin in excess of the applicable base rate depends on the overall account relationship and the creditworthiness of the borrower. Deposit rates are regularly reviewed and established by management. The Bank’s primary objective in setting deposit rates is to remain competitive in the market area while maintaining an adequate interest rate spread (the difference between the yield earned on interest-earning assets and the rates paid on deposits and borrowed funds) to meet overhead costs and provide a profitable return.

Supervision and Regulation

The Bank is subject to supervision, regulation and periodic examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) and Ohio Legacy is supervised by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”). Earnings of the Company are affected by state and federal laws and regulations and by policies of various regulatory authorities. These policies include, for example, statutory maximum lending rates, loan loss reserves, requirements on maintenance of reserves against deposits, domestic monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board, United States federal government fiscal policy, international currency regulations and monetary policies, certain restrictions on banks’ relationships with the securities business, capital adequacy requirements and liquidity restraints.

Regulation of Ohio Legacy

Bank Holding Company Act. As a bank holding company, Ohio Legacy is subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”). Under the BHCA, Ohio Legacy is subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board and is required to file periodic reports regarding its operations and any additional information that the Federal Reserve Board may require.

The BHCA generally limits the activities of a bank holding company to banking, managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries and engaging in any other activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be incidental to those activities. In addition, the BHCA requires bank holding companies to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Board prior to acquiring substantially all the assets of another bank or bank holding company, acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of a bank or merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.

The Federal Reserve Board has extensive enforcement authority over bank holding companies, including, among other things, the ability to: (i) assess civil money penalties; (ii) issue cease and desist or removal orders; and (iii) require that a bank holding company divest subsidiaries (including its subsidiary banks). In general, the Federal Reserve Board may initiate enforcement actions for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices.

Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to each subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support those subsidiary banks. Under this policy, the Federal Reserve Board may require a bank holding company to contribute additional capital to an undercapitalized subsidiary bank and may disapprove of the payment of dividends to shareholders if the Federal Reserve Board believes the payment of such dividends would be an unsafe or unsound practice. These provisions could have the effect of limiting Ohio Legacy’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock.

Capital Guidelines. The OCC and the Federal Reserve Board each have adopted risk-based and leverage capital guidelines to evaluate the adequacy of capital of national banks and bank holding companies. The guidelines involve a process of assigning various risk weights to different classes of assets, then evaluating the sum of the risk-weighted balance sheet structure against the capital base. Actual and required capital amounts are disclosed in Note 14 of the consolidated financial statements. Failure to meet capital guidelines could subject a banking institution to various penalties, including termination of FDIC deposit insurance. In addition, the OCC and the FDIC may take various corrective actions against any undercapitalized bank and any bank that fails to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan or fails to implement a plan accepted by the OCC or the FDIC. These powers include, but are not limited to, requiring the institution to be recapitalized, prohibiting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid, requiring prior approval of capital distributions by any bank holding company that controls the institution, requiring divestiture by the institution of its subsidiaries or by the holding company of the institution itself, requiring new election of directors, and requiring the dismissal of directors and officers.

The Bank, through its Board of Directors, agreed to a Consent Order (the “Consent Order”) with the OCC dated February 17, 2009, that called for the Bank to reach and maintain tier 1 capital of at least 8.75% of adjusted total assets and total risk-based capital of at least 13.25% of risk-weighted assets by August 31, 2009. Although the Bank did not achieve compliance with the capital requirements of the Consent Order by this date, on February 19, 2010, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into on November 15, 2009 with Excel Financial LLC that was subsequently assigned to Excel Bancorp, the Company received $15.0 million from Excel Bancorp in connection with Excel Bancorp’s purchase of 15 million shares of common stock, and raised an additional $2.5 million in connection with a private placement of 2.5 million shares of common stock. After the closing of these transactions, Ohio Legacy contributed approximately $16.2 million to the capital of the Bank. With the additional capital invested in the Bank, the Company exceeded the minimum capital ratios required under the Consent Order. See Notes 2 and 18 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Consent Order and Ohio Legacy’s sale of its common stock.

Regulation of the Bank

The Bank is also subject to federal regulation regarding such matters as reserves, limitations on the nature and amount of loans and investments, issuance or retirement of its securities, limitations on the payment of dividends and other aspects of banking operations.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System and, because it is a national bank, is regulated by the OCC. Accordingly, the Bank is subject to periodic examinations by the OCC. These examinations are designed primarily for the protection of the depositors of the Bank and not for its shareholder, Ohio Legacy, or for the shareholders of Ohio Legacy. The OCC has broad enforcement powers over national banks, including the power to impose fines and other civil and criminal penalties and to appoint a conservator or receiver if any of a number of conditions are met.

Dividend Restrictions. The Bank is a legal entity separate and distinct from Ohio Legacy, although Ohio Legacy owns 100% of the outstanding stock of the Bank. Virtually all of Ohio Legacy’s revenues result from dividends paid by the Bank. The Bank is subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends it can pay to Ohio Legacy. Under OCC regulations, a national bank, such as the Bank, may not declare a dividend in excess of its undivided profits. Additionally, the Bank may not declare a dividend if the total amount of all dividends declared by the Bank in any calendar year, including the proposed dividend, exceeds the total of the Bank’s retained net income of that year to date, combined with its retained net income of the preceding two years. However, a dividend that does not meet this measurement may be approved by the OCC in certain circumstances. In addition, the Bank may not declare or pay any dividend if, after making the dividend, the Bank would be undercapitalized under applicable federal regulations. Furthermore, the Consent Order requires that the Board of Directors provide a written request to the OCC for review and determination of no supervisory objection prior to paying any dividends.

FDIC. The FDIC is an independent federal agency that insures the deposits of federally-insured banks and savings associations up to prescribed limits. On July 21, 2010, President Barack Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act into law, which, in part, permanently raises the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000. The FDIC insurance coverage limit applies per depositor, per insured depository institution for each account ownership category.

On November 9, 2010, the FDIC issued a Final Rule implementing section 343 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that provides for unlimited insurance coverage of noninterest-bearing transaction accounts. Beginning December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2012, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance of the account, at all FDIC-insured institutions. The unlimited insurance coverage is available to all depositors, including consumers, businesses, and government entities. This unlimited insurance coverage is separate from, and in addition to, the insurance coverage provided to a depositor’s other deposit accounts held at an FDIC-insured institution. The term “noninterest-bearing transaction account” includes a traditional checking account or demand deposit account on which the insured depository institution pays no interest. It also includes Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts (“IOLTAs”). It does not include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts and money-market deposit accounts.

The FDIC is required to maintain designated levels of reserves. The FDIC may increase assessment rates if necessary to restore the ratio of reserves to insured deposits to its target level within a reasonable time and may decrease rates if the target level has been met. Assessments vary based on the risk the institution poses to the deposit insurance fund and the FDIC may alter its method of determining risk at any time. The risk level is determined based on the institution's capital level and the FDIC's level of supervisory concern about the institution. The FDIC may, in its discretion, impose special assessments on insured institutions at any time. In May 2009, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on all insured depository institutions of five basis points on the amount of the institution’s assets. In November 2009, the FDIC approved a final rule requiring banks to prepay their estimated quarterly assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009, as well as all of 2010, 2011, and 2012 on December 30, 2009. The Bank was exempted by the FDIC from prepaying its estimated assessments for 2010 through 2012 under a provision of the final rule permitting the FDIC, after consultation with the Bank’s primary federal regulator, to waive the prepayment requirement if prepayment poses a safety and soundness risk for the institution. The FDIC may impose additional special assessments or increase premiums in the future.

The FDIC safeguards the safety and soundness of financial institutions through examinations of insured institutions. The Bank is subject to examination by the FDIC, and the Bank’s deposits are assessed deposit insurance premiums by the Bank Insurance Fund of the FDIC. Under the FDIC’s deposit insurance assessment system, the assessment rate for any insured institution may vary according to regulatory capital levels of the institution and other factors such as supervisory evaluations.

The FDIC is authorized to prohibit any insured institution from engaging in any activity that poses a serious threat to the insurance fund and may initiate enforcement actions against banks. The FDIC may also terminate the deposit insurance of any institution that has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, order or condition imposed by the FDIC. If deposit insurance is terminated, the deposits at the institution at the time of termination, less subsequent withdrawals, will continue to be insured for a period from six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. The Company is not aware of any existing circumstances that could result in termination of the Bank’s deposit insurance.

Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) marks the greatest legislative change to financial supervision since the 1930s. It affects the regulatory environment in the areas of securities, derivatives, executive compensation, consumer protection and corporate governance that will grow out of the general framework established by the Act. The Act was designed to become effective in stages following the regulatory implementation phase during which an intense period of rulemaking will occur. Agency rulemaking will largely establish the parameters of the new regulatory framework and is expected to occur for an extended period. While much of the Act will directly affect large, complex financial institutions, smaller community banks will also face a more complicated and expensive regulatory framework.

The following changes that will be implemented pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act may have an effect on the Company’s business:

the Dodd-Frank Act creates a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with broad powers to adopt and enforce consumer protection regulations;

new capital regulations for bank holding companies will be adopted, which may impose stricter requirements, and any new trust preferred securities will no longer constitute Tier I capital;

the federal law prohibiting the payment of interest on commercial demand deposit accounts will be eliminated effective in July 2011;

the standard maximum amount of deposit insurance per customer is permanently increased to $250,000, and non-interest bearing transaction accounts will have unlimited insurance through December 31, 2012;

the assessment base for determining deposit insurance premiums will be expanded and change the assessment base from deposits to average assets minus average tangible equity; and

new corporate governance requirements applicable generally to all public companies in all industries will require new compensation practices and disclosure requirements, including requiring companies to “claw back” incentive compensation under certain circumstances, to provide shareholders the opportunity to cast a non-binding vote on executive compensation and to consider the independence of compensation advisers.

While the ultimate effect of the Dodd-Frank Act on the Company cannot yet be determined, the law is likely to increase compliance costs and fees paid to regulators, along with possible restrictions on the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act (the “CRA”) requires depository institutions to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas, including low and moderate-income areas, consistent with safe and sound banking practice. Under the CRA, each institution is required to adopt a statement for each of its marketing areas describing the depository institution’s efforts to assist in its communities’ credit needs. Depository institutions are examined periodically for compliance and are assigned ratings. Banking regulators consider these ratings when considering approval of a proposed transaction by an institution.

Privacy Provisions of Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act

Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, federal banking regulators were required to adopt rules that limit the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose non-public information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties. These limitations require disclosure of privacy policies to consumers and, in some circumstances, allow consumers to prevent disclosure of certain personal information to a nonaffiliated third party.

Patriot Act

In response to the terrorist events of September 11, 2001, the Uniting and Strengthening of America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) was signed into law in October 2001. The Patriot Act gives the United States Government powers to address terrorist threats through enhanced domestic security measures, expanded surveillance powers, increased information sharing and broadened anti-money laundering requirements. Title III of the Patriot Act takes measures intended to encourage information sharing among bank regulatory agencies and law enforcement bodies. Further, certain provisions of Title III impose affirmative obligations on a broad range of financial institutions. Among other requirements, Title III and related regulations require regulated financial institutions to establish a program specifying procedures for obtaining identifying information from customers seeking to open new accounts and establish enhanced due diligence policies, procedures and controls designed to detect and report suspicious activity. The Company has established policies and procedures that are believed to be compliant with the requirements of the Patriot Act.

Transactions with Affiliates, Directors, Executive Officers and Shareholders

Section 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation W restrict transactions by banks and their subsidiaries with their affiliates. An affiliate of a bank is any company or entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the bank. Ohio Legacy, Excel Bancorp and the Bank are affiliates. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B and Regulation W: (i) limit the extent to which a bank or its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of that bank’s capital stock and surplus (i.e., tangible capital); (ii) limit the extent to which a bank or its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with all affiliates to 20% of that bank’s capital stock and surplus; and (iii) require that all such transactions are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the bank subsidiary, as those provided to a non-affiliate.

The term “covered transaction” includes the making of loans to the affiliate, the purchase of assets from the affiliate, issuance of a guarantee on behalf of the affiliate, the purchase of securities issued by the affiliate, and other similar types of transactions.

A bank’s authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders, as well as entities such persons control, is subject to Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation O promulgated thereunder by the Federal Reserve Board. Among other things, these loans must be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals or be made as part of a benefit or compensation program and on terms widely available to employees, and must not involve a greater than normal risk of repayment. In addition, the amount of loans a bank may make to these persons is based, in part, on the bank’s capital position, and specified approval procedures must be followed in making loans which exceed specified amounts.

Effects of Government Monetary Policy

The earnings of the Company are affected by general and local economic conditions and by the policies of various governmental regulatory authorities. In particular, the Federal Reserve Board regulates monetary policy, credit conditions and interest rates that may influence general economic conditions primarily through open market acquisitions or dispositions of United States government securities, varying the discount rate on member bank borrowings and setting reserve requirements against member and nonmember bank deposits. The Federal Reserve Board’s monetary policies have historically had a significant effect on the interest income and interest expense of commercial banks, including the Bank, and are expected to continue to do so in the future.

Future Regulatory Uncertainty

Federal regulation of bank holding companies and financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant legislative debate. Future legislation and policies may have a significant influence on overall growth and distribution of loans, investments and deposits and may affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on time and savings deposits. Such legislation and policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. As a result of the continuous changes in legislation related to the financial services industry, the Company cannot forecast how federal regulation of financial institutions may change in the future or its impact on the Company’s operations and profitability.

Statistical Disclosures

The following schedules present, for the periods indicated, certain financial and statistical information of the Company as required under the SEC’s Industry Guide 3, “Statistical Disclosure by Bank Holding Companies.”

C. Risk Elements

1. Nonaccrual, Past Due and Restructured Loans - This information is contained in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The Bank’s policy for placing loans on nonaccrual status is to cease accruing interest on loans when management believes that collection of interest is doubtful or when loans are past due as to principal and interest for 90 days or more, except that, in certain circumstances, interest accruals are continued on loans deemed by management to be fully collectible. In such cases, loans are evaluated individually in order to determine whether to continue income recognition after 90 days beyond the due dates. When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, any accrued interest is charged against interest income.

When an analysis of a borrower's operating results and financial condition indicates the borrower’s underlying cash flows are not adequate to meet debt service requirements and the collateral securing the loan may become the principal source of repayment, the loan is evaluated for impairment. Smaller-balance homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total, however these loans are evaluated for impairment individually if placed on nonaccrual status. Homogeneous loans include residential first mortgage and construction loans secured by one- to four-family residences, consumer loans, credit card loans and home equity loans. Commercial, agricultural and commercial real estate loans are evaluated individually for impairment. In addition, loans held for sale and leases are excluded from consideration of impairment.

Loans individually considered impaired are carried at (a) the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or (b) the fair value of collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses may be allocated to impaired loans. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

2. Potential Problem Loans - At December 31, 2010, management did not identify any loans as to which it had serious doubts about the borrowers’ ability to comply with present loan repayment terms other than those included above in Industry Guide 3 - Item III.C.1, except $5,116,081 of loans not included above but classified as substandard assets for regulatory purposes

3. Foreign Loans Outstanding - There were no foreign loans outstanding during any period presented.

4. Loan Concentrations – The table below depicts loans outstanding at December 31, 2010, by loan type:

	Total Loans		% of total

Industry Guide 3 - Item IV. Summary of Loan Loss Experience

A. Analysis of the Allowance for Loan Losses

Activity in the allowance for loan losses for the years ended December 31 2010 and 2009 was as follows:

	2010			2009

Balance, January 1	$	3,945,670		$	3,398,284
Provision for loan losses		(116,147	)		4,507,055

Residential real estate		9,490			9,868
Construction		18,000			380,870
Consumer and home equity		1,696			18,204
Total recoveries		179,369			468,779

Balance, December 31	$	3,055,766		$	3,945,670


Balance as a percentage of total loans		2.93	%		3.76	%

The allowance for loan losses balance and the provision for loan losses charged to operating expense are determined by management based on periodic reviews of the Bank’s loan portfolio, economic conditions and various other circumstances that are subject to change over time. In making this judgment, management reviews selected large loans as well as loans individually considered impaired, other delinquent, nonaccrual and problem loans and loans to industries experiencing economic difficulties. The collectability of these loans is evaluated after considering the current operating results and financial position of the borrower, estimated market value of collateral, guarantees and the Company’s collateral position versus other creditors. Judgments, which are necessarily subjective, as to the probability of losses and the amounts of such losses are formed on these loans, as well as other loans taken together.

B. Allocation of the Allowance for Loan Losses

While management’s periodic analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses may allocate portions of the allowance to specific problem loan situations, the entire allowance is available for any loan charge-offs that occur. The following schedule is a breakdown of the allowance for loan losses allocated by type of loan and related ratios at December 31 2010 and 2009:

	2010				2009

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

As previously discussed under “Recapitalization,” Ohio Legacy and the Bank entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Excel Financial on November 15, 2009. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Excel Financial agreed to purchase 15 million shares of Ohio Legacy’s common stock at a price of $1.00 per share. As a condition to Excel Financial’s purchase of the shares, Ohio Legacy agreed to sell a minimum of 1.5 million shares of its common stock to investors other than Excel Financial in a private offering, and to use its best efforts to sell an additional one million shares of its common stock in the same private offering, all at a purchase price of $1.00 per share.

On February 19, 2010, Ohio Legacy closed (i) the sale of 15 million shares of its common stock, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, to Excel Bancorp, at a price of $1.00 per share and (ii) the sale of 2.5 million shares of its common stock to other local investors at a price of $1.00 per share. The aggregate proceeds from the sales were $17.5 million. Net proceeds from the sales were $16.8 million, after the Company’s payment of legal, investment banking, accounting and other issuance expenses of approximately $700,000. Through its purchase of 15 million shares of Ohio Legacy’s common stock, Excel Bancorp, which did not own any Ohio Legacy securities before the closing, acquired approximately 76% of Ohio Legacy’s total outstanding shares of common stock.

The shares of Ohio Legacy common stock sold in these transactions were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempt transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. The offering was made solely to “accredited investors,” as that term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. The shares of common stock sold in the offering may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. Certificates representing these shares of Ohio Legacy common stock contain a legend stating the same. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding these transactions.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

There were no purchases made by or on behalf of the Company or any affiliated purchaser of shares of Ohio Legacy’s common stock during the fourth quarter of 2010.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

In the following section, management presents an analysis of Ohio Legacy Corp's financial condition and results of operations as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. This discussion is provided to give shareholders a more comprehensive review of the issues facing management than could be obtained from an examination of the financial statements alone. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Form 10-K.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-K, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,” “might,” “could,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project “or “continue” or the negative version of such terms or comparable terminology. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-K, including statements regarding our outlook, financial position, results of operation, liquidity, capital resources and interest rate sensitivity are forward-looking statements.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information so long as those statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. We desire to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of that Act.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and, except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date on which the statement is made.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although we believe the assumptions, judgments and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance such assumptions, judgments and expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K include, but are not limited to:

·	competition in the industry and markets in which we operate;

·	rapid changes in technology affecting the financial services industry;

·	changes in government regulation;

·	general economic and business conditions and real estate valuations in our primary market areas could adversely impact results of operations, financial condition and cash flows;

·	changes in industry conditions created by state and federal legislation and regulations;

·	changes in interest rates and the impact of future interest rate changes on our profitability, capital adequacy and the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities;

·	our ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers;

·	our development of new products and services and their success in the marketplace;

·	the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses;

·	deposit insurance premiums assessed on the Bank may increase and have a negative impact on earnings;

·	our ability to seek additional capital in the future; and

·	our anticipated loan and deposit account growth, expense levels, liquidity and capital resources and projections of earnings.

OVERVIEW OF STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS

In recent years, the Company was burdened by high levels of problem loans and a sizeable portfolio of other real estate owned (“OREO”). In February 2009, the Company entered into a Consent Order with the OCC focusing on capital adequacy and credit quality. Although capital preservation was a key priority for the Company during the 2009, the combination of credit-related charges, the expenses and resources required for the administration of problem assets, and impairment losses associated with FNMA and FHLMC securities resulted in charges to capital that left the Company critically undercapitalized by year-end 2009.

Throughout 2009, various strategies were explored to raise capital in an unfavorable capital market when many financial institutions were facing significant credit challenges. In November 2009, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Excel Financial. The Stock Purchase Agreement closed in February 2010 and resulted in combined gross proceeds to the Company from the issuance of 17.5 million shares of common stock to Excel Bancorp and other local investors totaling $17.5 million. Subsequent to closing and in accordance with the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company appointed a new executive management team, accepted the resignations of seven directors, and appointed seven new directors to fill the resulting vacancies. The Company invested $16.2 million of the proceeds of the stock offering in the Bank as additional capital, resulting in compliance with provisions of the Consent Order that required the Bank to achieve certain minimum capital levels. See Notes 2 and 18 for additional information related to the Consent Order and the Company’s sale of common stock.

During 2010, the Board of Directors and management implemented changes to the operating policies of the Company and the Bank to improve credit and other operating practices. In April, the Bank was granted fiduciary powers and subsequently began offering trust, investment and private banking services. The Bank continues to monitor and workout a sizable classified asset and other real estate owned portfolio.

·	The Bank’s costs associated with its regulatory risk profile including FDIC insurance and regulatory examination costs, although improved from 2009, will remain high until asset quality and earnings improve.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates at a specific point in time that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, we have utilized available information including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming our estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the consolidated financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. It is possible that the ultimate outcome as anticipated by management in formulating our estimates inherent in these financial statements may not materialize. Application of the critical accounting policies described below involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operation to similar businesses.

Allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs. We estimate the allowance balance by considering the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in our judgment, should be charged off. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when we believe the loan balance cannot be collected.

We consider various factors, including portfolio risk, economic environment and loan delinquencies, when determining the level of the provision for loan losses. We monitor loan quality monthly and engage an independent third party each quarter to help monitor and confirm our loan grading conclusions.

Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Another critical accounting policy relates to valuation of the deferred tax asset for net operating losses. Net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $8,987,000 will expire as follows: $1,419,000 on December 31, 2027, $132,000 on December 31, 2028, $1,694,000 on December 31, 2029, and $5,742,000 on December 31, 2030. A valuation allowance has been recorded for the related deferred tax asset for these carryforwards and other net deferred tax assets recorded by the Company to reduce the carrying amount of these assets to zero. Additional information is included in Notes 1 and 12 to our audited consolidated financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION – DECEMBER 31, 2010, COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2009

Assets. At December 31, 2010, assets totaled $170.6 million, up $7.4 million from $163.2 million at December 31, 2009. During 2010, the focus of the Company shifted from a focus on capital preservation to positioning the Company for future growth.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and Cash Equivalents increased by $8.5 million to $32.7 million at year-end 2010 compared to $24.2 million at year-end 2009. The Company maintained a strong liquidity position during 2010 as a defense against increasing interest rates and to mitigate the impact of higher interest rates on the segment of its investment and loan portfolios with fixed rate, long term characteristics. Also, during periods of low interest rates, cash flows typically increase on investments and loans as borrowers are inclined to prepay obligations to refinance at lower interest rates.

Securities. Total securities classified as available for sale decreased by $1.7 million to $25.2 million. The portfolio consists primarily of 30-year mortgage backed securities issued by GNMA, an agency guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. During 2009, the Bank sold approximately $59.4 million of 15, 20 and 30 year mortgage backed securities and reinvested the proceeds into GNMA securities to improve its risk weighted capital ratios. The proceeds from the sale of securities sold for a substantial gain during 2009 were reinvested in long-term GNMA securities at lower yields. During 2010, investment purchases were geared toward callable agency bonds with the expectation that the bonds would likely be called prior to maturity, but until then would provide a higher yield than federal funds sold. At December 31, 2010, the duration of the portfolio excluding equity investments was approximately 3.2 years compared to 4.9 years at December 31, 2009. Securities with longer durations can be expected to contribute to increased volatility in the market value of the portfolio for any given change in market rates. At year-end 2010, the net unrealized gain on securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity was approximately $427,807 compared to a net unrealized loss on the portfolio at December 31, 2009 of approximately $183,453.

Loans. Total portfolio loans, net of the allowance for loan loss and deferred loan fees, increased $291,029 at December 31, 2010 to $101.1 million, compared to $100.9 million at year-end 2009. Since the end of the third quarter of 2010, total portfolio loans increased $6.6 million. Fourth quarter 2010 loan activity resulted in commercial loan balances increasing by $6.5 million. Loans classified by management as special mention, substandard or doubtful and not deemed impaired represented 12.5% of total loans at December 31, 2010 compared to 14.3% of total loans at September 30, 2010, and 12.7% at December 31, 2009. Impaired loans represented 3.3% of total loans at December 31, 2010 compared to 3.9% of total loans at September 30, 2010, and 5.6% of total loans at year-end 2009. Improving asset quality is a prime objective for management. Outstanding loan balances are expected to increase through business development efforts.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Asset Quality. The allowance for loan losses totaled $3.1 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $890,000 compared to $3.9 million at December 31, 2009. The amount of the allowance is based on a combination of actual experiential factors such as historical losses for each category of loans and information about specific borrowers as well as projections for various other factors, including delinquencies, general economic conditions and the outlook for specific industries, which are more subjective in nature. During 2010, the Company recognized loan charge-offs totaling $953,000 and recoveries totaling $179,000. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company charged off loans totaling $341,000 and collected recoveries of $40,000. The Company also reduced its estimate of incurred losses in the loan portfolio through the recognition of a negative loan loss provision totaling $116,000 for the year and a negative loan loss provision of $257,000 during the fourth quarter of 2010. The negative loan loss provision had a positive impact on earnings. During 2009, the Company recognized loan charge-offs totaling $4.4 million, including $2.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2009. The fourth quarter charge-offs included all specific reserves previously allocated at the end of the third quarter of 2009. Recoveries of $470,000 were collected during 2009 due primarily to a $366,800 mediated insurance settlement related to construction defects in one of the loans charged off and a recovery of $54,800 on a commercial loan that was repaid.

As a percentage of total loans, the allowance for loan losses decreased from 3.76% at year-end 2009 to 2.93% at the end of 2010. We continue to closely monitor credit quality and delinquencies as our loan portfolio ages, and will increase the allowance for loan losses if we believe losses have been incurred.

Loans are considered nonperforming if they are impaired or if they are in nonaccrual status. Nonperforming loans, excluding overdrafts, totaled $3.4 million at December 31, 2010 compared to $5.8 million at December 31, 2009. During 2010, reductions to nonaccrual loans included transfers to assets acquired through settlement of loans of $2.1 million, principal payments and payoffs of $983,000, charge-offs of $940,000 and upgrades of $239,000. Additions to nonaccrual loans totaled $1,829,000. During 2009, 34 loans totaling approximately $7.4 million converted to nonaccrual status, four loans totaling $372,961 were paid off, ten loans totaling $1.5 million were charged off, sixteen loans were charged down by $2.7 million, and ten loans totaling $1.0 million were transferred to assets acquired through settlement of loans.

Assets acquired in settlement of loans. These assets include OREO and an interest in a limited liability company acquired during 2010 that owns the real estate and operations of an indoor waterpark and resort obtained through a U.S. Bankruptcy Code 363 sale. The limited liability company was formed by the lead bank for the banks participating in the project financing to acquire title to the real estate, conduct the operation of the facility, and market the real estate and the operations of the business for sale. The carrying value of its interest is $1.3 million and is based upon the estimated fair value of the real estate less costs to sell. OREO consisted of seven properties and totaled $1.0 million at year-end 2010 compared to $3.2 million and fifteen properties at year-end 2009. During 2010, seventeen properties were sold from OREO for sales proceeds of $2.6 million. During 2009, twelve properties were sold from OREO generating $1.6 million in sales proceeds.

Deposits. Total deposits increased $3.4 million from year end 2009 to $143.2 million at December 31, 2010. Overall, core deposit balances increased 9.3% to $89.6 million from $82.0 million. Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 33.8% to $20.8 million. Our certificate of deposit portfolio decreased $4.2 million during the period to $53.6 million or 37.4% of total deposits compared to $57.8 million, or 41.3% of total deposits, at year-end 2009. The decrease was largely the result of promotional certificates maturing without reinvestment into currently offered certificate of deposit products. Customers are reluctant to extend the maturity of their deposits given the low interest rate environment that prevailed throughout the year.

Repurchase agreements. Total repurchase agreements increased $3.3 million from year end 2009 to $4.4 million at December 31, 2010. The increase is primarily due to a new commercial customer relationship that utilizes this product.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances. Total advances decreased $13.5 million from $18.5 million at December 31, 2009 to $5.0 million at December 31, 2010. The remaining $5.0 million in advances are expected to be repaid at maturity during the first quarter of 2011.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

The Company incurred losses for both 2010 and 2009. The loss for 2010 was $3,110,110, or $0.18 per share with an average of 17,365,249 common shares outstanding. The loss for 2009 was $6,659,594, or $3.01 per share with an average of 2,214,564 common shares outstanding.

Net interest income. For the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, net interest income was largely unchanged at $4.7 million, although the Company’s net interest margin increased to 2.93% in 2010 compared to 2.77% in 2009. Low interest rates prevailed across the yield curve during 2010 and 2009 following the financial crisis that occurred during the fall of 2008, the ensuing economic events, and the Federal Reserve Bank’s efforts to assist an economic recovery.

Interest income. Interest income decreased from $8.7 million in 2009 to $6.9 million in 2010 due to a smaller earning asset base and lower yields on earning assets. The yield on earning assets declined from 5.18% in 2009 to 4.31% in 2010, and interest-earning assets decreased from $168.0 million in 2009 to $160.2 million in 2010. Average balances for loans decreased $16.1 million, securities available for sale decreased $6.8 million and interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold increased $15.0 million. Of the $1.8 million decrease in interest income from 2009 to 2010, about $1.2 million is attributed to lower asset volumes and about $600,000 is attributable to lower interest rates.

Interest expense. Total interest expense declined $1.8 million from $4.1 million in 2009 to $2.2 million in 2010, a decrease of 45.3%. The cost of interest bearing funds averaged 1.62% for 2010 compared to 2.65% for 2009. Interest expense on deposits decreased $1.5 million to $1.8 million in 2010 compared to $3.3 million in 2009. The most significant declines in deposit interest expense were from lower rates paid for money market and certificates of deposit balances; interest paid for these two deposit types declined by $1.3 million. Other borrowing costs also declined by $362,000 due to lower rates and outstanding balances.

Provision for loan losses. A negative loan loss provision in the amount of $116,147 was recorded for 2010 compared to provision expense of $4.5 million in 2009. The reduction to the Allowance for Loan and Lease Loss was primarily driven by eliminating the loan charge-offs experienced during 2007 from its historical loan loss experience. The Company’s uses three years of charge-off experience in its calculation of the loss rate for pass-rated loans. Eliminating the 2007 loan losses from the loss rate reduced the Allowance for Loan Loss by approximately $863,000 at year end 2010 compared to year end 2009. Loan charge-offs during 2007 were significantly higher than in subsequent years.

The methodology for estimating losses on special mention loans was revised to include a loss rate based on loss experience for this category instead of a standard flat loss percentage. This resulted in an increase of about $179,000 in the Allowance for Loan Loss after also factoring in a decrease in the balance of special mention loans of about $1.1 million from year end 2009 to year end 2010.

A decrease in the loss rate applied to substandard loan balances at year end 2010 compared to year end 2009 resulted in a reduction to the Allowance for Loan Loss of about $531,000 even though the balance of substandard loans increased by about $461,000 from year end 2009 to year end 2010.

The allowance for loan loss allocated to other factors increased by $319,000. The increase was principally driven by regulatory and other economic factors. Specific allocations of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses increased approximately $6,000 at year end 2010 compared to 2009.

Charge-offs taken during 2010 totaled $953,126. Charge-offs taken during 2009, particularly during the fourth quarter of 2009, contributed to higher loss experience ratios, thus requiring a higher loan loss provision in 2009. In 2009, charge-offs included losses for two participation loans totaling $1.8 million; both loans funded construction of hotel/water park properties outside of the Company’s local lending area.

Noninterest income. For the year ended December 31, 2010, noninterest income increased to $814,171 from $225,681 for 2009. In both 2009 and 2010, the Company recognized OTTI charges for FNMA and FHLMC preferred stock owned. In 2009, the OTTI charge was $111,200, and for 2010 the OTTI charge was $47,200. The current carrying value of these securities is $70,720 and includes an unrealized gain of $29,120. Gains realized on securities available for sale during 2010 totaled $156,165; securities sales during 2010 were aimed at reducing the interest rate sensitivity of the investment portfolio. The impact of the OTTI charge for 2009 was more than offset by gains realized on securities available for sale totaling $918,187. Gains realized on securities available for sale during 2009 were conducted to improve risk-based capital ratios.

In both 2009 and 2010, the Company recognized losses on the disposition or direct write-down of other real estate owned. For 2010, the net loss on disposition or direct write-down of other real estate owned totaled $341,631 on twenty-three properties compared to a net loss of $1,522,008 on twenty-two properties for 2009.

Service charges and other fees increased $104,469 to $933,878 in 2010 compared to $829,409 for 2009. The increase was driven by the introduction in 2010 of new services for trust, investment, and asset management fees which contributed $223,625 in noninterest income. This positive contribution was partially offset by lower overdraft fees that fell by $126,514, or 22.9%, compared to 2009. The reduction in overdraft fees is directly related to federal legislation that became effective during 2010 requiring banks to ensure that customers “opt-in” to bank-offered overdraft protection programs. Other fee income including services fees, check printing, ATM and debit card revenue increased $7,358 from 2009 to 2010.

Gains on the sale of loans increased by $10,733 to $68,084 in 2010, up from $57,351 in 2009. Efforts to advance mortgage activity resumed following the closing of the stock offering in early 2010. Prior to the stock offering, lending was severely restricted based on efforts to improve the Company’s capital ratios. An experienced mortgage and consumer loan manager was hired to revitalize mortgage operations. Other income declined from $58,729 in 2009 to $53,574 principally due to the reduction of rental income associated with other real estate owned.

Noninterest expense. Total noninterest expenses increased $1,648,706, or 22.6%, to $8,933,543 during 2010 compared to $7,284,837 for 2009. Substantial costs were incurred related to the change in ownership control and subsequent change in management. The Company recorded investor expenses of $517,222 in February 2010 in connection with the assignment of promissory notes from Excel Financial to the Company in connection with the assignment of the Stock Purchase Agreement to Excel Bancorp by Excel Financial. The investor expenses represent expenses incurred in connection with the pursuit of an acquisition of a financial institution and development of fiduciary services in connection with an acquisition. Other changes are described below.

Salaries and benefits increased $1,148,041 to $3,970,412 in 2010, or 40.7%, compared to $2,822,371 in 2009. Salaries expense included incentive compensation totaling $228,000 during 2010 for newly hired management. Salaries and benefits expense also included salary continuation for terminated staff totaling $61,603 and for departing executive management totaling $85,569. New positions were added in trust and investment services, credit administration, human resources and other departments within the Company.

Occupancy and equipment costs increased $89,661, or 10.7%, in 2010. Approximately $67,000 of this increase related to a new trust and investment office that opened in St. Clairsville, Ohio, in February 2010.

Professional fees increased $230,045, or 42.8%, in 2010. These costs include legal, accounting and auditing, regulatory examination and consulting fees. Consulting fees of $140,000 were paid to Excel Financial for the period prior to closing the stock offering. The Company also retained experienced problem loan workout specialists to assist in loan collection efforts.

Franchise tax decreased $82,743, or 73.7%, in 2010 due to a lower capital valuation at year end 2009 compared to year end 2008. Ohio franchise tax for financial institutions is assessed based on the company’s net worth for the previous year end. Franchise tax will increase to more than $200,000 in 2011 as a result of the recapitalization during 2010.

Marketing and advertising expense increased $29,609, or 29.6%, in 2010. During the first quarter of 2010, the Board of Directors of the Bank approved changing the name of the Bank to Premier Bank & Trust, National Association. The Bank opted to include “Trust” in its name in connection with obtaining fiduciary powers from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Bank also expects to conduct trust services in several states. Costs associated with the name change including logo design, costs associated with the reissuance of credit and debit cards, and promotional materials totaled approximately $30,000.

Deposit expense and insurance fees decreased $411,686, or 45.3%, in 2010. During the second quarter of 2009, the FDIC imposed an emergency assessment for all insured financial institutions that was paid in September 2009. The assessment totaled $88,878 and was based on total assets as of September 30, 2009. In addition to the absence of this special assessment in 2010, an improvement in the Bank’s risk rating for FDIC insurance based on higher capital levels following the common stock issuance in February contributed to a reduction in this expense for 2010.

Other expenses increased $136,864, or 11.9%, in 2010. Cost increases for directors’ and officers’ liability and fidelity bond insurance policies increased approximately $94,000, loan expenses increased approximately $140,000, other employee and director related expenses increased $72,000. Other real estate owned expenses decreased approximately $161,000 and other taxes decreased $8,000.

Tax benefits recorded during 2010 totaled $202,501 and are the result of the application of generally accepted accounting principles that require an entity to record the tax effect of the change in deferred taxes for unrealized gains or losses on securities available for sale through other comprehensive income. At December 31, 2009, the unrealized loss on securities available for sale was $237,367 and resulted in the recognition of a deferred tax asset (before valuation allowance) in the amount of $80,704. At December 31, 2010, the unrealized gain on securities available for sale was $358,225 and resulted in a deferred tax liability of $121,797 (before valuation allowance). The deferred tax change of $202,501, characterized as a disproportionate tax effect under intra-period tax allocation rules, was recorded as a tax benefit with a corresponding adjustment to Other Comprehensive Income.

As a result of a change in the tax law in 2008 that allows net operating losses to be carried back five years, the Company was able to amend its 2003 tax return and record a refund of taxes paid for that year. The refund of $289,300 was offset by a $38,311 change in accrued taxes for 2008, resulting in a tax benefit of $250,989 for 2009.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At December 31, 2010, the Company had no unconsolidated, related special purpose entities, nor did the Company engage in derivatives and hedging contracts, such as interest rate swaps, that may expose us to liabilities greater than the amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. The investment policy prohibits engaging in derivatives contracts for speculative trading purposes; however, in the future, the Company may pursue certain contracts, such as interest rate swaps, in an effort to execute a sound and defensive interest rate risk management policy.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity refers to the ability to fund loan demand and customers’ deposit withdrawal needs and to meet other commitments and contingencies. The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure sufficient cash flow to meet all of financial commitments and to capitalize on opportunities for business expansion in the context of managing interest rate risk exposure. This ability depends on the financial strength, asset quality and the types of deposit and loan instruments offered to our customers.

The Company’s principal sources of funds are deposits, repurchase agreements, loan and security repayments and maturities, sales of securities, capital transactions and borrowings from the FHLB. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan and security prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions, and competition. Investments in liquid assets are maintained based upon our assessment of the need for funds, expected deposit flows, yields available on short-term liquid assets and the objectives of the asset/liability management program.

The Company’s liquidity contingency funding plan identifies liquidity thresholds and raises red flags that may evidence liquidity issues. The contingency plan details specific actions to be taken by management and the Board of Directors and identifies sources of emergency liquidity, both asset and liability-based, should the Company encounter a liquidity crisis. Liquidity risk is actively monitored and various scenarios are analyzed that could impact the Company’s ability to access emergency funding in conjunction with asset/liability and interest rate risk management activities.

Cash and cash equivalents increased from $24.2 million at December 31, 2009 to $32.7 million at December 31, 2010. Cash and cash equivalents represented 19.2% of total assets at year-end 2010, compared to 14.8% of total assets at year-end 2009. The increase was primarily due to increases in funding from the proceeds of the common stock issuance totaling $16.7 million, an increase in deposits and repurchase agreements totaling $6.8 million, and sales, maturities and principal payments received on the investment portfolio totaling $15.0 million. Partially offsetting these cash inflows were cash outlays for the purchase of investment securities totaling $13.0 million, repayment of FHLB debt totaling $13.5 million, and net loan funding of $3.6 million.

The Company monitors the liquidity position on a regular basis in conjunction with asset/liability and interest rate risk management activities. Our current liquidity level, including contingency funding available through borrowing facilities at the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank, is sufficient to meet anticipated future growth in loans and deposits and general liquidity needs.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total shareholders’ equity was $16.5 million at December 31, 2010, compared to $2.4 million at December 31, 2009. Shareholders’ equity increased due to the issuance of 17.5 million shares of common stock. The net loss for 2010 reduced equity by $3.1 million.

Current regulations require a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0%, at least half of which must be tier 1 capital, and a leverage ratio of 4.0%. The Bank’s total risk-based capital is made up of tier 1 capital and tier 2 capital. Tier 1 capital is total shareholders’ equity, less any intangible assets. Tier 2 capital includes the allowance for loan losses up to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.

On February 17, 2009, the Company agreed to a Consent Order with the OCC that required the Bank to reach and maintain tier 1 capital of at least 8.75% of adjusted total assets and total risk-based capital of at least 13.25% of risk-weighted assets by August 31, 2009. At December 31, 2009, the Company had not met the terms of the Consent Order and was critically unercapitalized. On February 19, 2010, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into on November 15, 2009 with Excel Financial, the Company received $15.0 million from Excel Bancorp in connection with Excel Bancorp’s purchase of 15 million shares of common stock, and raised an additional $2.5 million in connection with a private placement of 2.5 million shares of common stock. After the closing of these transactions, Ohio Legacy contributed approximately $16.2 million to the capital of the Bank. With the additional capital invested in the Bank, the Company exceeded the minimum capital ratios required under the Consent Order. However, until the Consent Order is terminated, the Bank cannot be classified as well-capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions. See Notes 2 and 18 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Consent Order and Ohio Legacy’s sale of its common stock.

The payment of dividends by the Bank to Ohio Legacy and by Ohio Legacy to its shareholders is subject to restrictions by regulatory agencies. These restrictions generally limit the Bank’s dividends to the sum of its current year’s the prior two years’ retained earnings. In addition, dividends may not reduce capital levels below the minimum regulatory requirements as described above. As of February 28, 2011, based on its year to date and previous year’s earnings, the Company is not able to declare dividends without prior approval from its regulators. Pursuant to the Consent Order, prior to paying any dividends, the Bank must provide a written request to the OCC for review and determination of no supervisory objection. In addition to the dividend restrictions above, the Bank is not permitted to accept brokered deposits without prior approval from its regulators.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

The following table details the variable rate composition of our interest-earning assets at December 31 2010 and 2009:

	Percent variable rate
	2010			2009
Interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold		100	%		100	%
Securities		5	%		8	%
Loans		69	%		75	%
Federal bank stock		100	%		100	%
Total interest-earning assets		64	%		66	%

The Company performs liquidity risk analysis at least monthly and interest rate risk analysis at least quarterly. This information is used to assist in managing the balance sheet to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on earnings and equity. Approximately 53.92% of the interest-earning assets and 97.7% of the interest-bearing liabilities on our balance sheet at December 31, 2010 were scheduled to mature or subject to repricing during 2011.

We believe that the Bank is "liability sensitive" over a twelve-month horizon at December 31, 2010. Usually, this would mean an increasing interest rate environment would cause a drop in net interest income and a falling interest rate scenario would have the inverse effect. However, we cannot be certain that our net interest income would contract if interest rates increased because the composition of our assets and liabilities is constantly changing due to the variability of our loan prepayment experience, the behavior of core deposit customers and other factors.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature; therefore, we differ greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in fixed assets or inventories. However, inflation does have an important impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry and the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than normal rates in order to maintain appropriate capital ratios. Inflation significantly affects noninterest expense, which tends to rise during periods of general inflation. Deflation, or a decrease in overall prices from one period to the next, could have a negative impact on the Company’s operations and financial condition. Deflationary periods impute a higher borrowing cost to debtors as the purchasing power of a dollar increases with time. This may decrease the demand for loan products offered by the Bank.

We believe the most significant impact on our financial results is our ability to react to changes in interest rates. While we seek to maintain a fairly balanced position between interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities and to actively manage our balance sheet in order to protect against the effects of wide interest rate fluctuations on our net income and shareholders’ equity, constraints on capital and other factors may also affect our ability to minimize the impact of changes in interest rates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include Ohio Legacy Corp (“Ohio Legacy”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Premier Bank & Trust, National Association (the “Bank”, formerly Ohio Legacy Bank, N.A.). Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. References to the “Company” include Ohio Legacy, consolidated with its subsidiary, the Bank.

Ohio Legacy is a bank holding company, incorporated in July 1999 under the laws of the State of Ohio. The Bank provides financial services through its full-service offices in Wooster, North Canton and Canton, Ohio and its Trust office in St. Clairsville, Ohio. The Bank provides trust, private banking and investment services to its clients. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings and certificate of deposit accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by residential and commercial real estate. Concentrations of credit are evaluated based on the North American Industry Classification System (“NAICS”) code assignments. At December 31, 2010, loans to nonresidential lessors totaled 103% of Tier 1 capital, and loans to residential lessors totaled 85% of Tier 1 capital; no other NAICS concentrations of credit exceeded 25% of Tier 1 capital. The Bank’s credit policy includes an industry concentration limit of 110% of Tier 1 capital. Other financial instruments that potentially represent concentrations of credit risk include deposit accounts in other financial institutions and federal funds sold.

Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, judgments about the other than temporary impairment of securities, fair value of financial instruments, valuation of deferred tax assets and the fair value of other real estate owned are particularly subject to change.

Cash Flows: Cash and cash equivalents includes cash, deposits with other financial institutions with original maturities of less than 90 days and federal funds sold. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, repurchase agreements, and short term FHLB advances.

Interest–Bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions: Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions mature within one year and are carried at cost.

Restrictions on Cash: Cash on hand or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of $1,306,000 and $1,167,000 was required to meet regulatory reserve and clearing requirements at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Securities: Debt securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Debt securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are classified as available for sale. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. For securities in an unrealized loss position, management considers the extent and duration of the unrealized loss, and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Management also assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized as impairment through earnings. For debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment is split into two components as follows: 1) OTTI related to credit loss, which must be recognized in the income statement and 2) other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) related to other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. The credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis. For equity securities, the entire amount of impairment is recognized through earnings.

In order to determine OTTI for purchased beneficial interests that, on the purchase date, were not highly rated, the Company compares the present value of the remaining cash flows as estimated at the preceding evaluation date to the current expected remaining cash flows. OTTI is deemed to have occurred if there has been an adverse change in the remaining expected future cash flows.

Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold with servicing rights released. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold.

Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs and an allowance for loan losses.

Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments.

Interest income on loans is discontinued at the time the loan becomes 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Delinquency status is based on contractual payment due date.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status are reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses: The allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.

Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired and assigned a probable loss amount. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures unless the loan is on nonaccrual status. The Company then divides the remaining loans by risk into four grades: pass, special mention, substandard, and doubtful. Loans with a pass grade are divided into ten separate categories. Total charge-offs for a specified time period, currently 3.0 years, are divided into the same categories and used as a starting point to estimate credit losses in each category. Other subjective factors, such as industry conditions, local economic trends and similar items are assigned a numeric value by category and are also applied to the balances in the pass grade. Historic loss percentages are applied separately to the special mention and substandard pools of loans based on actual charge-offs for each pool in total regardless of the category. The following portfolio segments have been identified:

A description of each segment of the loan portfolio, along with the risk characteristics of each segment, is included below

Residential real estate: The Company defines residential real estate loans as first mortgages on individuals’ primary residence. Credit approval for residential real estate loans requires demonstration of sufficient income to repay the principal and interest and the real estate taxes and insurance, stability of employment, an established credit record and an appropriately appraised value of the real estate securing the loan that generally requires that the residential real estate loan amount be no more than 85% of the purchase price or the appraised value of the real estate securing the loan, whichever is less, unless private mortgage insurance is obtained by the borrower. Loans made for the Bank’s portfolio are generally adjustable rate, fully amortized mortgages. The rates used are generally fully-indexed rates and are not priced using low introductory “teaser” rates.

Home equity loans: These loans are either lines of credit or closed-end loans secured by second mortgages. The maximum amount of a home equity line of credit is generally limited to 95% (with acceptable credit scores) of the appraised value of the property less the balance of the first mortgage.

One to Four Family Rental Property: These loans are secured by residential real estate rental properties. The principal source of repayment generally is dependent upon satisfactory occupancy of the building by tenants.

Multi-family Real Estate: These loans consist of residential rental properties and generally consist of buildings with rental units for five or more families. The principal source of repayment generally is dependent upon satisfactory occupancy of the building by tenants.

Consumer Loans: The Company originates direct consumer loans, primarily automobile loans, personal lines of credit, and unsecured consumer loans in its primary market areas. Credit approval for consumer loans requires income sufficient to repay principal and interest due, stability of employment, an established credit record and sufficient collateral for secured loans. Consumer loans typically have shorter terms and lower balances with higher yields as compared to real estate mortgage loans, but generally carry higher risks of default. Consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances.

Commercial Loans: Commercial loans are made for a wide variety of general corporate purposes, including financing for industrial and commercial properties, financing for equipment, inventories and accounts receivable. The term of each commercial loan varies by its purpose. Repayment terms are structured such that commercial loans will be repaid within the economic useful life of the underlying asset. The commercial loan portfolio includes loans to a wide variety of corporations and businesses across many industrial classifications in the areas where the Bank operates.

Commercial Loans Secured by Trust Assets: These commercial loans are secured by cash or marketable securities and have substantially less credit risk than other types of commercial loans.

Commercial Real Estate: Commercial real estate loans (“CRE loans”) include mortgage loans to developers and owners of commercial real estate. The collateral for these CRE loans is the underlying commercial real estate. The Bank generally requires that the CRE loan amount be no more than 90% of the purchase price or 80% of the appraised value of the commercial real estate securing the CRE loan, whichever is less. The Bank evaluates commercial real estate based on whether the property is owner occupied or non-owner occupied. Non-owner occupied CRE loans typically exhibit higher risk.

Construction and development: Construction financing is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk of loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan depends largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property’s value at completion of construction and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. If the estimate of construction cost proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit completion of the project. If the estimate of value proves inaccurate, the Bank may be confronted, at or prior to the maturity of the loan, with a project having a value insufficient to assure full repayment, should the borrower default. In the event a default on a construction loan occurs and foreclosure follows, the Bank must take control of the project and attempt either to arrange for completion of construction or to dispose of the unfinished project. Additional risk exists with respect to loans made to developers who do not have a buyer for the property, as the developer may lack funds to pay the loan if the property is not sold upon completion. Generally the Bank attempts to reduce such risks on loans to developers by requiring personal guarantees and reviewing current personal financial statements and tax returns.

Transfers of Financial Assets: Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Federal Bank Stock: The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (the “FHLB”) system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowing and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as federal bank stock on the balance sheet, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income. Federal Reserve Bank stock is also carried at cost. Cash dividends are reported as income. At December 31, 2010, federal bank stock consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank stock of $1,021,000 and Federal Reserve Bank stock of $536,700. As of December 31, 2009, federal bank stock consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank stock of $1,021,000 and Federal Reserve Bank stock of $246,250.

Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed over an asset’s useful life, primarily using the straight line method. Leasehold improvements and office buildings under a capital lease are amortized over the original term of the lease. Furniture, fixture and equipment have useful lives ranging from 3 to 7 years. Buildings have useful lives ranging from 15 to 20 years. Premises and equipment and other long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable through future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.

Intangible Assets: Intangible assets typically consist of core deposit intangible assets arising from a branch acquisition. They are initially measured at fair value and then are amortized on an accelerated method over their useful lives, which range from 7 to 10 years.

Assets Acquired in Settlement of Loans: These assets include other real estate owned and a limited liability interest in an indoor waterpark and resort obtained through a U.S. Bankruptcy Code 363 sale. The limited liability company was formed by the lead bank for the banks participating in the project financing to acquire title to the real estate, conduct the operation of the facility, and market the real estate and the operations of the business for sale. The carrying value of its interest is based upon the estimated fair value of the real estate less costs to sell.

Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, direct write-downs are recorded through expense to the carrying amount of the asset. Costs incurred after acquisition are expensed. Improvements that improve the fair value of the property are capitalized. Real estate owned at December 31, 2009 included a property placed into receivership; the property was subsequently sold during 2010.

Long-Term Assets: Premises and equipment, intangible assets, and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized

A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.

The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

The issuance of common stock to Excel Bancorp during 2010 resulted in an “ownership change” of the Company, as broadly defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of the ownership change, utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and certain built-in losses under federal income tax laws will be subject to annual limitation. The annual limitation placed on the Company’s ability to utilize these potential tax deductions will equal the product of an applicable interest rate mandated under federal income tax laws and the Company’s value immediately before the ownership change. The annual limitation imposed under Section 382 would limit the deduction for both the carryforward tax attributes and the built-in losses realized within five years of the date of the ownership change to approximately $91,683 per year. Given the limited carryforward period assigned to these tax deductions in excess of this annual limit, some portion of these potential deductions will be lost and, consequently, the related tax benefits will not be recorded in the financial statements. See Note 12 for additional information regarding net operating loss carryforwards.

Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings (loss) per share is net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares that may be issued upon the exercise of stock options and stock warrants. The following table details the calculation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the years ended December 31:

	For the Year Ended
	December 31,
	2010			2009
BASIC:
Net loss	$	(3,110,110	)	$	(6,659,594	)

Weighted average common shares outstanding		17,365,249			2,214,564
Basic loss per share	$	(0.18	)	$	(3.01	)

DILUTED:
Net loss	$	(3,110,110	)	$	(6,659,594	)

Weighted average common shares outstanding		17,365,249			2,214,564
Dilutive effect of stock options		-			-
Dilutive effect of stock warrants		-			-
Total common shares and dilutive potential common shares		17,365,249			2,214,564
Diluted loss per common share	$	(0.18	)	$	(3.01	)

The computation of diluted loss per share excludes potential dilutive common shares if the effect of their exercise since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation: Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock awards issued to employees, based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant is used for restricted stock awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Comprehensive Income (Loss): Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, which are also recognized as a separate component of equity, net of tax.

Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there are any such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.

Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require the Bank to maintain certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to Ohio Legacy. See Notes 14 and 18 for a further description of regulatory restrictions.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 11. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Operating Segments: While the Company’s chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the Company’s various products and services, the identifiable segments are not material and operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Company’s financial services operations are considered by management to be aggregated into one reportable operating segment.

Reclassifications: Some items in the prior-year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements:

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets: In June 2009, FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.” This removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from existing GAAP and removes the exception from applying FASB ASC 810-10, Consolidation (FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003) Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities) to qualifying special purpose entities. The objective of this new guidance is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets (which includes loan participations); the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. The Company’s adoption of this new guidance on January 1, 2010, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R): In June 2009, FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (ASC 810). The objective of this new guidance is to amend certain requirements of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation ofVariable Interest Entities, to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. The Company’s adoption of this new guidance on January 1, 2010 had no impact on Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements: In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, Topic 820, Improving Disclosures About Fair ValueMeasurements. This amendment requires new disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers. This amendment also requires that a reporting entity present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, on a gross basis rather than a net basis for activity in Level 3 fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs. This amendment also clarifies existing disclosures on the level of disaggregation, in that the reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities, and that a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and 3. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures for ASC 820 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses: In July 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of FinancingReceivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (ASU 2010-20), to address concerns about the sufficiency, transparency, and robustness of credit risk disclosures for finance receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. This ASU requires new and enhanced disclosures at disaggregated levels, specifically defined as “portfolio segments” and “classes”. Among other things, the expanded disclosures include roll-forward schedules of the allowance for credit losses and information regarding the credit quality of receivables as of the end of a reporting period. New and enhanced disclosures are required for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2010, although the disclosures of reporting period activity are required for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance impacts annual disclosures within the Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2010 and will impact disclosures within interim financial statements in future periods, but will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

No. 2011-01 | Receivables (Topic 310) Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20: In January 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled DebtRestructurings in Update No. 2010-20 (ASU 2011-01). ASU 2011-01 was issued as a result of concerns raised from stakeholders that the introduction of new disclosure requirements (paragraphs 310-10-50-31 through 50-34 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification) about troubled debt restructurings in one reporting period followed by a change in what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring shortly thereafter would be burdensome for preparers and may not provide financial statement users with useful information.

NOTE 2 – STOCK ISSUANCE

On November 15, 2009, the Company and the Bank entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Excel Financial, LLC (“Excel Financial”). Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Excel Financial agreed to purchase 15.0 million of the Company’s common shares at a price of $1.00 per share. As a condition to Excel Financial’s purchase of the Company’s common shares, the Company agreed to sell a minimum of 1.5 million of its common shares to investors other than Excel Financial in a private offering, and to use its best efforts to sell an additional 1.0 million of its common shares in the same private offering, all at a purchase price of $1.00 per share.

At a special meeting held January 8, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved the issuance and sale of up to 17,500,000 additional shares of Ohio Legacy common stock. Shareholder approval was obtained in conjunction with the Stock Purchase Agreement. At the special meeting, shareholders approved: (1) an amendment to Ohio Legacy’s articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 5,000,000 to 22,500,000; (2) the issuance of 15,000,000 shares of common stock to Excel Bancorp LLC (“Excel Bancorp”), an Ohio limited liability company formed to acquire the shares of Ohio Legacy’s common stock, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, and the issuance of up to 2,500,000 additional shares to other investors in a private offering made in connection with the sale of shares to Excel Bancorp; and (3) the control share acquisition by Excel Bancorp of 15,000,000 shares of common stock.

Excel Financial had engaged consultants and advisors to assist it in this endeavor and had no other business activity. Although the Company entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement with Excel Financial, Excel Financial assigned the agreement to its assignee, Excel Bancorp. The Federal Reserve Board approved Excel Bancorp’s application to become a registered bank holding company on February 12, 2010, in connection with its acquisition of Ohio Legacy’s common stock. Following regulatory approval, Ohio Legacy issued 15,000,000 shares of common stock to Excel Bancorp and 2,500,000 shares of common stock in a private offering on February 19, 2010, at an issue price of $1.00 per share (the “Closing”).

The net proceeds to the Company of the stock offering were $16,714,781 after payment of various costs totaling $785,219. Net proceeds were used by the Company to increase the capital level of the Bank in the amount of $16,184,135 and to repay notes payable and accrued interest to the organizers of Excel Bancorp and Excel Financial in the amount of $526,915 for advances made to Excel Financial for organization and operating expenses related to its pursuit of a bank acquisition. The Company accepted the assignment of the notes payable to the organizers of Excel Bancorp and Excel Financial in exchange for their agreement to waive a closing condition that required the Bank to maintain a minimum tier 1 capital level of $5.7 million. Since the notes to the organizers were an obligation to reimburse expenses not directly related to the stock offering, the cost was expensed rather than deducted from the stock offering proceeds.

As discussed in Note 18, the Bank entered into a Consent Order in 2009 that specified achievement of higher capital ratios. Following the Closing, the Bank exceeded the minimum capital ratios required under the Consent Order with the OCC of tier 1 capital of at least 8.75% of adjusted total assets and total risk-based capital of at least 13.25% of risk-weighted assets. However, until the Consent Order is terminated, the Bank cannot be classified as well-capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions.

Various management and board changes also took place as contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement.

Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”) in the fair value of its securities portfolio at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of forty-six securities. Three securities were in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and one security was in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer and is discussed below:

Preferred Stock

The Company owns preferred stock issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”). During June 2010, FNMA and FHLMC announced that the New York Stock Exchange would delist shares of its common and preferred shares in July because the common stock had not maintained a minimum stock price of $1.00 for thirty consecutive days. Following this announcement, the preferred stock prices declined significantly. At June 30, 2010, the FNMA Series R preferred share price was $0.36 (down from $0.93 per share at May 31, 2010) and the FHLMC Series 2007 Fixed-to-Floating Rate preferred share price was $0.34 (down from $1.05 per share at May 31, 2010). In July the preferred shares began to trade on the over the counter market. Each company continues to operate under the conservatorship of the Federal Housing Finance Agency and requires financial support from the U.S. Treasury Department. No dividends have been paid on the preferred shares since dividend payments were suspended in September 2008. These factors contributed to management’s decision to record an OTTI charge at June 30, 2010 in the amount of $47,200 to reduce the carrying value of the securities to an estimated fair value of $41,600. During 2009, the Company recognized an OTTI charge of $111,200 on the preferred stock.

Mortgage-backed securities

At December 31, 2010, 87.6% of the mortgage-backed securities held by the Company were issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), which are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, and 11.0% were issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), institutions which the government has affirmed its commitment to support.

The Company’s mortgage-backed securities portfolio includes one non-agency security with a fair value of $247,566 which represents an unrealized loss of approximately $69,078 at December 31, 2010; the estimated fair value has been less than its amortized cost for twelve months or more. This non-agency mortgage-backed security is rated Aa2 by Moody’s and AAA by Standard & Poor’s rating services. This security is senior to several subordinate classes of securities that together are collateralized by a pool of residential mortgages. No losses incurred on the mortgages in the pool have been assigned to the senior classes. Although the borrowers are not required to make principal payments during the initial 10 year period, 68% of the original principal has been repaid as of December 31, 2010. There are no negative amortization loans in the pool and none of the loans are subprime, Alt A or similar type of high-default product. Based on these factors, as of December 31, 2010, the Company believes there is no OTTI and does not have the intent to sell this security and it is likely that it will not be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. The $69,078 estimated unrealized loss on the non-agency security as of December 31, 2010 is $108,174 less than the estimated unrealized loss of $177,252 at September 30, 2010. At December 31, 2009, the estimated unrealized loss on this non-agency security was $27,473. Management believes the decline in estimated fair value subsequent to year-end 2009 was primarily the result of the illiquidity of this security in the market, as well as management’s use of a new pricing service subsequent to year-end 2009 that used more conservative assumptions than in prior periods.

The fair value of debt securities and the carrying amount, if different, at year end 2010 by contractual maturity were as follows. Securities not due at a single maturity date, mortgage-backed securities and equity securities, are shown separately.

	Held-to-maturity
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Available for sale Fair Value

Securities with a fair value of $4,109,000 and $4,243,000 were pledged as collateral for public fund deposits at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Available for sale securities with a fair value of $6,126,000 and $2,979,000 were pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements (see Note 9) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Available for sale securities with a fair value of $13,024,000 and $1,626,000 were pledged as collateral to the Federal Home Loan Bank as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

At December 31, 2010, there were no holdings of securities of specific issuers, other than mortgage backed securities issued by U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises and debentures issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank, in an amount greater than 10% of shareholders’ equity.

At December 31, 2009, other than mortgage backed securities issued by U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises, the following securities exceeded 10% of shareholders’ equity.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Company classifies all non-homogeneous loans such as commercial and commercial real estate loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk into four non-classified categories (i.e. passing grade loans) and three categories of classified loans. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution's credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans not analyzed as part of homogeneous groups include commercial, commercial real estate, multi-family real estate, construction and development loans. Homogeneous groups of loans are not typically risk rated unless the loan is placed on nonaccrual status. A loan may also be separated from the homogeneous pool and individually risk rated due to recurrent delinquency problems, typically 60 to 89 days past due. As of December 31, 2010, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans was as follows:

	Not Rated		Pass		Special Mention		Substandard		Doubtful		Total

1-4 Family residential mortgage	$	23,135,647	$	392,160	$	-	$	197,341	$	155,550	$	23,880,698

The Company considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the allowance for loan losses. For residential and consumer loan classes, the Company also evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan, which was previously presented, and by payment activity. The following table presents the current principal balance of residential and consumer loans based on payment activity as of December 31, 2010:

	Residential
	1-4 Family		Home Equity		Consumer		Total
Performing	$	23,716,528	$	6,277,141	$	693,194	$	30,686,863
Nonperforming		164,170		-		43,359		207,529
Total	$	23,880,698	$	6,277,141	$	736,553	$	30,894,392

Loans to principal officers, directors and their affiliates in 2010 were as follows:

Balances, January 1	$	3,725,232
New Loans		6,253,553
Repayments and reductions due to resignations		(4,235,691	)
Balances, December 31	$	5,743,094

NOTE 5 – ASSETS ACQUIRED IN SETTLEMENT OF LOANS

Assets acquired in settlement of loans were as follows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

	2010		2009
Interest in limited liability company	$	1,305,437	$	-
Residential real estate		401,111		1,160,603
Commercial real estate		-		196,706
Multi-family real estate		320,753		-
Land development		324,001		1,818,349
Total other real estate owned	$	2,351,302	$	3,175,658

Costs after acquisition are expensed. Expenditures that improve the fair value of the property are capitalized. It is the Company’s intention to make periodic reassessments of the value of assets held in this category and record valuation adjustments or write-downs as the reassessments dictate. Real estate owned at December 31, 2009 and subsequently sold during 2010 included a property placed into receivership.

The interest in the limited liability company was obtained through a U.S. Bankruptcy Code 363 sale. The limited liability company was formed by the lead bank for the banks participating in the project financing to acquire title to the real estate, conduct the operation of the facility, and market the real estate and the operations of the business for sale. The carrying value of its interest is based upon the estimated fair value of the real estate less costs to sell.

NOTE 6 - PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Premises and equipment were as follows at December 31 2010 and 2009:

	2010			2009
Land	$	638,786		$	638,786
Office building		2,091,242			2,031,368
Leasehold improvements		1,074,175			764,767
Furniture, fixtures and equipment		2,136,679			1,663,535

Less: Accumulated depreciation		(2,479,427	)		(2,146,064	)
Premises and equipment, net	$	3,461,455		$	2,952,392

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, depreciation expense was $375,382 and $342,520, respectively. Depreciation expense includes amortization of assets leased under capital leases.

The Company’s banking office located at 305 West Liberty Street in Wooster, Ohio, previously served as its main banking office. Monthly rent for the leased premises for the first five years that ended in April 2006, was $4,200 plus an amount equal to the monthly payment to amortize the construction costs of $550,000 over 180 months, with an interest rate of 10%. The base rent increases every five years by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index over the same five-year period. The monthly base rent increased to $5,562 in May 2006. The final scheduled increase in base rent will occur in May 2011. Base rent will remain at that level until the expiration of the lease in April 2016. The building portion of the lease is accounted for as a capital lease while the land portion of the lease is accounted for as an operating lease, due to the land exceeding 25% of the total fair value of the property.

The Bank’s operations center is located at 2375 Benden Drive, Suite C, Wooster, Ohio. In 2007, the Bank entered into a five year operating lease agreement for the property. Annual rent payments are $23,004 for the first year, then increase annually as follows: $28,752 for the second year, $34,500 for the third year, $40,248 for the fourth year and $45,996 for the fifth year. At the end of the initial five years, the Bank has the right to extend the term of the lease for five additional one year terms. The rent will increase 3.0% for each renewal term.

One banking office was relocated to 6141 Whipple Ave NW, North Canton, Ohio in November 2010 from its former location at 4026 Dressler Road in Canton, Ohio, at the end of its lease term. The landlord is a related party. The original term of the new lease is twenty years commencing October 1, 2010. The rent for the first six months is $22,752 and increases to $45,396 for the second six months. Annual rent in year two through five is 90,792 increasing to $102,144 in year six through year ten, $114,912 in year eleven through year fifteen, and $129,276 in year sixteen through year twenty. The Company has the option to renew the lease for six successive periods of five years each.

The Milltown banking office is located at 3562 Commerce Parkway in Wooster, Ohio. The Bank assumed an operating lease on the property upon the consummation of a purchase and assumption agreement (discussed in Note 7) in August 2004, and subsequently purchased the building in 2008.

The North Canton banking office is located at 600 South Main Street in North Canton, Ohio. The Bank owns the land and building, which was constructed during 2005. During 2010, the Company changed its main office to this location.

Rent expense was $211,141 and $186,800 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Estimated rental commitments under all leases for their non-cancelable periods were as follows as of December 31, 2010:

NOTE 8 - DEPOSITS

Certificates of deposit in denominations of $100,000 or more were $21,932,000 and $2,216,400 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit were as follows at December 31, 2010:

Included in certificates of deposit at December 31, 2010 and 2009 were deposits totaling $93,475 and $472,700, respectively, obtained through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (the “CDARS”). This service allows deposit customers to maintain fully insured balances in excess of the $250,000 FDIC insurance limit without the inconvenience of having multiple banking relationships. Under the reciprocal program, customers agree to allow the Bank to place their deposits with other participating banks in the CDARS program in insurable amounts under $250,000. In exchange, other banks in the program agree to place their deposits with the Bank, also in insurable amounts under $250,000.

NOTE 9 – REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

Repurchase agreements are financing arrangements that mature daily. Under the agreements, customers agree to maintain funds on deposit with the Bank and in return acquire an interest in a pool of securities pledged as collateral against the funds. The securities are held in a segregated safekeeping account at the Federal Home Loan Bank. Information concerning the repurchase agreements for 2010 and 2009 is summarized as follows:

	2010			2009
Average daily balance during the year	$	2,655,055		$	1,059,040
Average interest rate during the year		0.32	%		0.47	%

NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for similar assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial asset:

Securities: The fair values for securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 3).

Impaired Loans and Other Real Estate: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses and other real estate is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available.

Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized in the following table:

	December 31,		December 31,
	2010		2009
Available for sale securities	$	25,206,895	$	26,892,105

Impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a carrying amount of $3,409,242 a specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2010 of $6,435. Provisions for loan losses as a result of charge-offs or write-downs to the fair value of collateral were $718,750 in 2010.

Impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a carrying amount of $4,670,389 with no specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2009. Provisions for loan losses as a result of charge-offs or write-downs to the fair value of collateral were $4,234,997 in 2009.

Gross write downs totaling $542,490 and $1,665,004 were recorded on other real estate during the 2010 and 2009.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities at December 31 are as follows:

	2010						2009
	Carrying Amounts			Estimated Fair Value			Carrying Amounts			Estimated Fair Value

Accrued interest payable		(69,000	)		(69,000	)		(148,000	)		(148,000	)

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable, noninterest-bearing demand deposits and variable-rate loans, deposits that reprice frequently and fully, repurchase agreements, certificates of deposit in financial institutions and overnight FHLB advances. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes. For fixed-rate loans or deposits and for variable-rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life. The fair value of borrowings is based upon current rates for similar financing over the remaining terms of the borrowings. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of federal bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability. The estimated fair value for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments are considered nominal.

Net deferred tax assets (liabilities)	$	-		$	-

A valuation allowance of $5,453,661 was recorded to reduce the carrying amount of the Company’s net deferred tax assets to zero.

Internal Revenue Code section 382 places a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by net operating loss carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in ownership) of a loss corporation. Accordingly, utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against future taxable income upon change in control.

At February 19, 2010, a Stock Purchase Agreement between Ohio Legacy Corp and Excel Bancorp resulted in a section 382 limitation against pre-transaction Ohio Legacy Corp net operating loss carryforwards. The Company reduced the deferred tax asset related to NOL carryforwards and the valuation allowance by $1,039,000.

At December 31, 2010, after consideration of the reduction to pre-transaction net operating losses due to the section 382 limitation, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $8,987,000 that will expire as follows: $1,419,000 on December 31, 2027, $132,000 on December 31, 2028, $1,694,000 on December 31, 2029, and $5,742,000 on December 31, 2030.

In addition, the Company has approximately $46,000 of alternative minimum tax credits that may be carried forward indefinitely.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits recorded. The Company does not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly within the next twelve months.

The Company and the Bank are subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Company is no longer subject to examination by federal taxing authorities for tax years prior to 2007. The tax years 2007, 2008 and 2009 remain open to examination by the U.S. taxing authorities.

NOTE 13 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

As a condition to the consummation of the closing of the Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and Excel Financial (see Note 2), all outstanding options and warrants held by the Company’s directors and employees granted under the Omnibus Stock Option, Stock Ownership and Long-Term Incentive Plan (“Stock Ownership Plan”) and warrants (“Director Warrants”) granted to Directors who organized the Company following the closing in 2000 of the Company’s initial stock offering were cancelled and extinguished without consideration effective February 19, 2010 pursuant to stock option and warrant cancellation and surrender agreements between the Company and each of its directors and employees. The Stock Ownership Plan expired on September 14, 2009.

The following types of awards could be granted under the Stock Ownership Plan to eligible persons: nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options and restricted stock. Each nonemployee Director could be granted 2,500 nonqualified options at the time, or soon after, that person first became a Director. This initial option grant vested annually in equal amounts over a five-year term. In addition, each nonemployee Director could receive an annual grant of up to 1,000 nonqualified options during his or her tenure on the Board, which vested immediately. No Director grants were made in 2009. Employee option grants usually vested three years from the date of grant. The exercise price of an option was not less than the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

The following table depicts the activity under the Stock Ownership Plan:

	2010
				Weighted
				Average
				Exercise
	Options			Price
Outstanding at January 1		162,300		$	10.79
Granted		-
Forfeited		(162,300	)		10.79
Exercised		-
Outstanding at December 31		-			-

Exercisable at December 31		-			-

All remaining Director Warrants totaling 35,000 shares (held by former directors who were not serving on the Board of Directors at the time of the closing) that entitled the purchase of one share of common stock for $10 per share expired unexercised on October 1, 2010.

Shareholders adopted the Ohio Legacy Corp 2010 Cash and Equity Incentive Plan in May 2010. The Plan permits the grant of share-based awards for a maximum of 2,000,000 shares of common stock. The Plan provides for awards of options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, and other stock-based awards to employees, directors and consultants. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. Options awards have vesting periods as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. All options currently outstanding have an original vesting period of five years.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company’s common stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

The following table depicts the activity under this Plan:

	2010
	Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding, January 1		-			-
Granted		1,322,250		$	2.30
Forfeited		(2,000	)		2.30
Exercised		-			-
Outstanding, December 31		1,320,250		$	2.30

Exercisable at December 31		-			-

The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options outstanding at December 31, 2010 was 9.53 years. The intrinsic value of options outstanding was $0.

The fair market value of options granted was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of the grant date:

	2010
Risk-free interest rate		1.11% - 1.83	%
Expected term (years)		6.5
Expected stock price volatility		0.298
Dividend yield		0	%

The weighted average fair value of options granted during 2010 was $0.78. The Company has a policy of using authorized but unissued common shares to satisfy option exercises.

The compensation cost yet to be recognized for stock options that have been awarded but not vested is as follows:

2011	$	207,229
2012		207,229
2013		207,229
2014		207,229
2015		103,165

NOTE 14 – REGULATORY MATTERS

Banks are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: (i) well capitalized; (ii) adequately capitalized; (iii) undercapitalized; (iv) significantly undercapitalized; and (v) critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action.

The Bank, through its Board of Directors, agreed to a Consent Order (the “Consent Order”) with the Bank’s primary federal regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”), dated February 17, 2009. The Consent Order required the Board of Directors to submit a capital plan to the Assistant Deputy Comptroller that included specific plans to achieve and maintain Tier 1 capital of at least 8.75% of adjusted total assets and total risk-based capital of at least 13.25% of risk-weighted assets.

The Consent Order provides that the OCC has the ability to take any action it deems appropriate in fulfilling its regulatory and supervisory responsibilities during the term of the Consent Order or upon the failure of the Bank to comply with the terms of the Consent Order. Among the actions that may be taken by the OCC is the placing of the Bank into receivership.

As described in Note 2, the Company and the Bank entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Excel Financial. At December 31, 2009, the Bank met the definition of critically undercapitalized. The transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement were approved by the Company’s shareholders at a special meeting of shareholders held on January 8, 2010. After the closing of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the private sale, the Company contributed approximately $16.2 million to the capital of the Bank, improving the Bank’s capital to levels sufficient to meet the capital minimums required by the Consent Order. However, until the Consent Order is terminated, the Bank cannot be classified as well-capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions.

Actual and required capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios are presented below at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

The payment of dividends by the Bank to Ohio Legacy is subject to restrictions by regulatory agencies. These restrictions generally limit dividends to the sum of the current year and prior two years retained earnings. In addition, dividends may not reduce capital levels below the minimum regulatory requirements as described above. Based on its current and prior two years earnings, the Company is not able to declare dividends without prior approval from its regulators. Pursuant to the Consent Order, prior to paying any dividends, the Bank must provide a written request to the OCC for review and determination of no supervisory objection. In addition to the dividend restrictions above, the Bank is not permitted to issue brokered deposits without prior approval from its regulators.

NOTE 15 - LOAN COMMITMENTS AND RELATED ACTIVITIES

Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies used to make loans are also used to make such commitments, including obtaining collateral upon exercise of the commitment.

Commitments to make loans are generally made for periods of 30 days or less. The contractual amount of loan commitments with off-balance sheet risk was as follows at December 31 2010 and 2009:

	2010		2009
Commitments to make loans:
Variable rate	$	2,035,000	$	-

NOTE 18 – CONSENT ORDER

The Bank, through its Board of Directors, entered into the Consent Order with the Bank’s primary federal regulator, the OCC, dated February 17, 2009. The Consent Order required the Board of Directors to submit a capital plan to the Assistant Deputy Controller that included specific plans to achieve and maintain tier 1 capital of at least 8.75% of adjusted total assets and total risk-based capital of at least 13.25% of risk-weighted assets by August 31, 2009. The Board of Directors submitted the capital plan to the OCC, which included the engagement of an advisory firm to seek out capital investment from parties not currently affiliated with the Company or the Bank or attracting a merger partner.

As of December 31, 2009, the Bank had not achieved the minimum capital ratios specified in the Consent Order. To have achieved both these levels at December 31, 2009, the Bank would have needed approximately $12.3 million of additional capital. On February 19, 2010, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into on November 15, 2009 with Excel Financial (see Note 2), the Company received $15.0 million from Excel Bancorp in connection with Excel Bancorp’s purchase of 15 million shares of common stock, and raised an additional $2.5 million in connection with a private placement of 2.5 million shares of common stock. After the closing of these transactions, Ohio Legacy contributed approximately $16.2 million to the capital of the Bank.

Following Ohio Legacy’s capital investment and at December 31, 2010, the Bank exceeded the minimum capital ratios required under the Consent Order. See Note 14 for information on the Bank’s capital levels at year end 2010. However, until the Consent Order is terminated, the Bank cannot be classified as well-capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders

Ohio Legacy Corp

North Canton, Ohio

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ohio Legacy Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ohio Legacy Corporation at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management of Ohio Legacy Corp is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision, and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010, were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (1) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (2) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period required by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of Ohio Legacy Corp is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation or assessment of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting system is designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives.

Management of Ohio Legacy Corp, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has assessed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010, based on the specified criteria.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit non-accelerated filers to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
