Forward-Looking Information

Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q including, but not limited to, those described in Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: (1) significant increases in competitive pressure in the banking and financial services industries; (2) changes in the interest rate environment, which could reduce anticipated or actual margins; (3) changes in the regulatory environment; (4) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally and especially in the Company’s primary service area failing to improve or continuing to deteriorate and resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality and increases in the provision for loan loss; (5) operational risks, including data processing systems failures or fraud; (6) changes in business conditions and inflation; (7) changes in technology; (8) changes in monetary and tax policies; and (9) changes in the securities markets; (10) civil disturbances or terrorist threats or acts, or apprehension about the possible future occurrences or acts of this type; (11) outbreak or escalation of hostilities in which the United States is involved, any declaration of war by the U.S. Congress or any other national or international calamity, crisis or emergency; (12) changes in laws and regulations; (13) new or recently issued accounting pronouncements; (14) government policies, regulations, and their enforcement (including Bank Secrecy Act-related matters, taxing statutes and regulations; (15) restrictions on dividends that our subsidiaries are allowed to pay to us; (16) the ability to satisfy requirements related to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other regulation on internal control; and (17) management’s ability to manage these and other risks. Therefore, the information set forth in such forward-looking statements should be carefully considered when evaluating the business prospects of the Company.

When the Company uses in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q the words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “commit,” “believe” and similar expressions, the Company intends to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are not guarantees of performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, expected, projected, intended, committed or believed. The future results and shareholder values of the Company may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and values are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements. For those statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

GENERAL

On February 2, 2002, Valley Commerce Bancorp (the "Company") was incorporated as a bank holding company for the purpose of acquiring Valley Business Bank (the "Bank") in a one bank holding company reorganization intended to provide the Company and the Bank greater flexibility to expand and diversify. The reorganization was completed on November 21, 2002, subsequent to which the Bank continued its operations as previously conducted, but as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Bank commenced operations in 1996 and currently operates branches in Visalia, Fresno, Woodlake and Tipton, and Tulare. The Bank's primary source of revenue is generated from providing loans to customers who are predominately small and middle market businesses and individuals residing in the surrounding areas. The Bank's deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to applicable legal limits. The Bank’s participation in the FDIC Transaction Account Guarantee Program expired on December 31, 2011. The Dodd-Frank Act extends unlimited deposit insurance to non-interest bearing transaction accounts through December 31, 2012. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, Negotiable Order of Withdrawal (“NOW”) accounts not paying more than 0.25% interest per annum are not included in the definition of non-interest bearing transaction accounts. These accounts and any other interest-bearing accounts will be insured based on the depositor’s ownership capacity, but not to exceed $250,000.

2.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Valley Commerce Bancorp and subsidiary have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Valley Commerce Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary Valley Business Bank (the “Bank”) (collectively, the “Company”). Valley Commerce Trust I, a wholly-owned subsidiary formed for the exclusive purpose of issuing trust preferred securities, is not consolidated into the Company's consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, is accounted for under the equity method. The Company’s investment in the Trust is included in accrued interest receivable and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of Management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 have been included therein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted, however, the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Management has determined that because all of the commercial banking products and services offered by the Company are available in each branch of the Bank, all branches are located within the same economic environment and management does not allocate resources based on the performance of different lending or transaction activities, it is appropriate to aggregate the Bank branches and report them as a single operating segment. No single customer accounts for more than 10% of the revenues of the Company or the Bank.

Index

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)

On May 24, 2011 the Company declared a 5% stock dividend payable on June 28, 2011 for all shareholders of record on June 14, 2011. All earnings per share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock dividend.

3.	AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The investment portfolio consists entirely of investment securities that were classified as available for sale at date of acquisition. The Company has established investment policies that are designed primarily to manage interest rate and liquidity risk, and secondarily to achieve income. Each impaired investment security is evaluated quarterly for other-than-temporary impairment, relying primarily on industry analyst reports, observation of market conditions and interest rate fluctuations.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of available-for-sale investment securities at the dates indicated consisted of the following:

Proceeds and gross realized gains from the sale of available-for-sale investment securities for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 totaled $1,518,288 and $27,957, respectively. There were no investment securities sold at a loss during the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

3. AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE INVESTMENT SECURITIES (Continued)

Net unrealized gains on available-for-sale investment securities totaling $1,384,062 were recorded, net of $569,541 in tax benefits, as accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders' equity at December 31, 2011. Proceeds and gross realized gains from the sale of available-for-sale investment securities for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 totaled $943,500 and $13,620, respectively.

Management periodically evaluates each investment security for other-than-temporary impairment, relying primarily on industry analyst reports, observation of market conditions and interest rate fluctuations. As of March 31, 2012, the Company performed an analysis of the investment portfolio to determine whether any of the investments held in the portfolio had other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). When analyzing the issuer’s financial condition, management considers the length of time and extent to which the market value has been less than cost; the historical and implied volatility of the security; the financial condition of the issuer of the security; and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security to recovery. Management evaluated all available-for-sale investment securities with an unrealized loss at March 31, 2012 and identified those that had an unrealized loss for at least a consecutive 12 month period, which had an unrealized loss at March 31, 2012 greater than 10% of the recorded book value on that date, or which had an unrealized loss of more than $15,000. Management also analyzed any securities that may have been down graded by credit rating agencies. For those bonds that were municipal debt securities, the Company conducted a search for any recent information relevant to the financial condition of the municipality and any applicable municipal bond insurance provider.

OTTI that is credit-related is recognized in earnings while noncredit-related OTTI on securities not expected to be sold is recognized in other comprehensive income. An unrealized loss may eventually be realized if it is probable that either (1) the Company will not collect the entire contractual or estimated cash flow from that interest, or (2) the Company lacks the intent and ability to hold the interest until it is expected to recover. As discussed below, the Company’s impairment analysis as of March 31, 2012 resulted in all unrealized losses in the investment portfolio being recognized in other comprehensive income.

Index

3. AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE INVESTMENT SECURITIES (Continued)

U.S Government Sponsored Entities and Agencies

At March 31, 2012, the Company held 6 U.S. government sponsored entities and agencies of which one was in a loss position for more than twelve months and none were in a loss position for twelve months or less. Management believes the unrealized losses on the Company's investments in U.S. government securities were caused by interest rate increases and other market issues. The contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities will not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company's investment. Because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012.

Mortgage-backed Obligations

At March 31, 2012, the Company held 45 mortgage-backed securities of which 6 were in a loss position for less than twelve months and none were in a loss position for twelve months or more. Management believes the unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in mortgage obligations were caused primarily by limited market liquidity and perceived credit risk on the part of investors. The contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities will not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012.

Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions

At March 31, 2012, the Company held 52 obligations of states and political subdivision securities of which 6 were in a loss position for less than twelve months and 4 were in a loss position and had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. Management believes the unrealized losses on the Company's investments in obligations of states and political subdivision securities were due to the continued dislocation of the securities market. All of these securities have continued to pay as scheduled despite their impairment due to current market conditions and there has been no observable deterioration in the credit rating or financial performance of the underlying municipality that in the opinion of management would impact the ultimate repayment of the security.

Municipal securities with unrealized losses as of March 31, 2012 are summarized in the table below.

3. AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE INVESTMENT SECURITIES (Continued)

Management’s periodic evaluation of municipal investments includes a determination that a withdrawn rating (WR) or no rating (NR) by a rating agency is not attributable to increased credit risk. The Company has established risk parameters within its investment policy that limits the Company’s exposure to the municipal market and serves to promote diversification and low risk within the municipal segment of the portfolio. Municipal investment purchases are designed primarily to manage interest rate risk and secondarily to achieve income. In addition, the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity. Therefore, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities at March 31, 2012 by contractual maturity are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company assigns a risk rating to all loans and periodically performs detailed reviews of all such loans over a certain threshold to identify credit risks and to assess the overall collectability of the portfolio. These risk ratings are also subject to examination by independent specialists engaged by the Company and by the Company's regulators. During these internal reviews, management monitors and analyzes the financial condition of borrowers and guarantors, trends in the industries in which borrowers operate and the fair values of collateral securing these loans. These credit quality indicators are used to assign a risk rating to each individual loan. The risk ratings are grouped into five major categories as follows: Pass, Watch, Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful.

The following table shows the loan portfolio allocated by management's internal risk ratings at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

5. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES (Continued)

In the table above, the first column titledRecorded Investment includes the balance due on the loan less any interest payments received and applied to principal while on nonaccrual status and any partial charge offs. In the next column theUnpaid Principal Balance includes the actual contractual loan balance due from the borrower plus calculated accrued interest, which would normally be accrued and due, if the loan was not on nonaccrual status.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The modifications and concessions granted to troubled debt restructures generally consist of 6 to 12 months’ deferral of principal payments or an interest rate reduction or a lengthened amortization, or a combination thereof. Of the thirteen loans identified as troubled debt restructures at March 31, 2012, three were granted deferral of principal payments, five had interest rate reductions and lengthened amortization, one had deferral of principal payment and a rate reduction, and four were concession loans priced below the assumed market rate. When a loan becomes a troubled debt restructure, it is normally placed in nonaccrual status until it is evident that the borrower will perform at the modified terms. The Company’s policy is to require satisfactory payments for a six month period before the loan will be considered for reinstatement to accrual status. The Company does not have commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers with loans whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings.

Management identifies the early onset of borrower financial difficulties via the utilization of various indicators. Chief of these indicators would simply be the review of the borrower’s repayment pattern. When repayment patterns begin to exhibit practices that are less than what is allowed within the contractual allowance, an indication of early difficulties emerges. If this pattern continues, the Bank will document collection efforts via on-site visits to the borrower’s premises whereby providing further, observable input into the borrower’s financial condition. Furthermore, the Bank makes a consistent practice to require the submission of periodic interim and annual financial information of the borrowers, guarantors and co-signors. This information is obtained to determine the borrower’s historical debt serviceability and to make judgments’ concerning future repayment. Should financial information be denied, the Bank will utilize various options to encourage compliance. If the financial information and repayment practices with other lenders remains uncollectible, the Bank will utilize the review of updated credit reports to determine debt levels.

A summary of loan modifications that meet the definition of troubled debt restructurings and the related reserves as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is set forth below:

5. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES (Continued)

The following table presents loans by class modified as troubled debt restructuring that occurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2012:

		Modifications
	During the Three Months ended March 31, 2012



			Pre-Modification	Post-Modification
			Outstanding Recorded	Outstanding Recorded
		Number of Contracts	Investments	Investments

Troubled Debt Restructuring:
Commercial		2	$ 1,309,478	$ 1,309,478

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually for which there was a payment default that occurred during the period ended March 31, 2012. There were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The troubled debt restructuring described above did not increase the allowance for loan and lease losses and resulted in no net charge offs during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Loans modified during the three month period ending March 31, 2012 that do not meet the definition of troubled debt restructures are summarized below:


	March 31, 2012

Commercial	$	2,382,340
Real Estate-Mortgage		154,754
Real Estate-Construction		891,457
Agricultural		560,000
Consumer and Other		9,112

Total	$	3,997,663

The Bank has granted concessions on loans that do not meet the definition of a troubled debt restructure. The loan terms were modified due to competitive pressures. The customers involved were highly creditworthy and were determined by management to be likely and able to move their business to a competing financial institution if their loan terms were not modified.

The Company does not have commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers with loans whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings.

Foregone interest on nonaccrual loans totaled $253,336 and $233,000 for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Index

7.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to claims and legal proceeding arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or result of operations of the Company taken as a whole.

In the normal course of business, the Company has various outstanding commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the financial statements, including loan commitments of $32.7 million and $31.8 million and letters of credit of $475,000 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

At March 31, 2012, consumer loan commitments, which are generally unsecured, represent approximately 7% of total commitments. Agricultural loan commitments represent approximately 8% of total commitments and are generally secured by crops and/or real estate. Commercial loan commitments represent approximately 64% of total commitments and are generally secured by various assets of the borrower. Real estate loan commitments represent the remaining 21% of total commitments and are generally secured by property with a loan-to-value not to exceed 80%. In addition, the majority of the Bank’s commitments have variable interest rates. Total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each loan commitment and the amount and type of collateral obtained, if any, are evaluated on an individual basis. Collateral held varies, but may include real property, bank deposits, debt or equity securities or business assets.

Stand-by letters of credit are conditional commitments written to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily related to the purchases of inventory by commercial customers and are typically short-term in nature. Credit risk is similar to that involved in extending loan commitments to customers and, accordingly, evaluation and collateral requirements similar to those for loan commitments are used. The deferred liability related to the Company’s stand-by letters of credit was not significant at March 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

8.	STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has two active share based compensation plans; the Valley Commerce Bancorp 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) for which 14,560 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance to employees and directors under incentive and non-statutory agreements and the Valley Commerce Bancorp Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan (“Prior Plan”) for which 102,656 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance, however, no further grants may be made under this plan as it expired in February 2007. The Incentive Plan provides for awards of stock options, restricted stock awards, qualified performance-based awards and stock grants. The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to promote the long-term success of the Company and the creation of shareholder value. The Board of Directors believes that the availability of stock options and other forms of stock awards will be a key factor in the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified individuals.

In addition during the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 there were 23,461 incentive stock options and 57,500 non-qualified stock options granted to the Company’s officers and directors, respectively, at an average price of $8.40 per option. There were 10,500 options granted during the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, at an average price of $7.81 per option.

The fair value of each incentive and non-qualified stock option award granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Fair values of the stock options issued during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are based on the weighted-average assumptions shown in the table below.


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2012			Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Dividend yield		N/A			N/A
Expected option life		9.28	years		8.83	years

Expected volatility		50.4	%		46.9	%
Risk-free interest rate		0.84	%		1.23	%
Weighted average fair value of
options granted	$	4.81		$	5.02

Index

8. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION (Continued)

The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that awards are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock and other factors. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period on a straight line accounting basis. Compensation cost related to stock options recognized in operating results was $59,364 and $58,121 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) are classified as cash flow from financing activities in the statement of cash flows. There were no excess tax benefits during the periods ended March 31, 2012 or 2011.

The following table summarizes information about stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2012:

Options exercisable at March 31, 2012		87,770		9.98		4.87 years	$	61,301	(1)

(1) 40,052 non-statutory options and 38,255 incentive options are excluded from intrinsic value from table above because the exercise price is greater than the stock price at March 31, 2012.

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock for options that were in-the-money at March 31, 2012. There were no options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. There were no shares of restricted stock issued during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 1,050 during the 2011 period. There were 80,961 options granted and 10,500 options granted during the periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $320,998 and $58,121, respectively.

Management estimates expected forfeitures and recognizes compensation costs only for those equity awards expected to vest. As of March 31, 2012, there was $345,398 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be realized over a weighted average period of 1.45 years and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures.

9.	EARNINGS PER SHARE COMPUTATION

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of options.

	For the Three Months
	Ended March 31,

Diluted shares		2,789,106			2,769,432

All earnings per share and weighted-average share amounts in the above table have been restated to reflect the 5% stock dividend in June 2011. There were 78,307 options excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, and 99,584 excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, respectively, as they were identified as anti-dilutive.

10.	INCOME TAXES

The Company files its income taxes on a consolidated basis with its subsidiaries. The allocation of income tax expense represents each entity's proportionate share of the consolidated provision for income taxes. The difference in the effective tax rates compared to the statutory tax rates is primarily the result of the Company’s investment in municipal securities and Company-owned life insurance policies whose income is exempt from Federal taxes. In addition, the Company receives certain tax benefits from the State of California Franchise Tax Board for operating and providing loans, as well as jobs, in designated “Enterprise Zones.”

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. On the condensed consolidated balance sheet, net deferred tax assets are included in accrued interest receivable and other assets.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income. There have been no significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Index

11.	PREFERRED STOCK

On January 30, 2009, the Company entered into a letter Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the United States Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold (i) 7,700 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series B (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and (ii) a warrant to purchase 385 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock Series C stock, (the “Warrant Preferred” or “Series C Preferred Stock”) for a combined purchase price of $7,700,000 and were recorded net of $20,793 in offering costs. The Treasury exercised the Warrant immediately upon issuance.

On March 21, 2012, the Company repurchased all of the Series B and Series C Preferred stock from the Treasury for a total of $8,126,965, which includes the redemption amount of $8,085,000 plus accrued but unpaid dividends of $41,965. The repurchase of the Preferred shares terminated the Company’s continuing obligations under the Purchase Agreement.

12.	Fair Value Measurement

The Company measures fair value under the fair value hierarchy described below.

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Model based techniques that use one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use on pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include management judgment and estimation which may be significant.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.

Management evaluates the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities or total earnings.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (Continued)

During the three month period ended March 31, 2012 and year ended December 31, 2011, there were no transfers in or out of Levels 1, 2, or 3.

The fair value of investment securities available for sale equals quoted market price, if available. If quoted market prices for identical securities are not available then fair value are estimated by independent sources using pricing models and/or quoted prices of investment securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. The Company has categorized all of its investment securities available-for-sale as level 2, since U.S. Agency MBS are mainly priced in this manner. Changes in fair market value are recorded in other comprehensive income.

The Company had no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are summarized below:

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (Continued)

Impaired loans (loans which are not expected to repay all principal and interest amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms) are measured at an observable market price (if available) or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the estimated costs related to liquidation of the collateral. Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classifications of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. Management’s ongoing review of appraisal information may also result in additional discounts or adjustments to the valuation based upon more recent market sales activity or more current appraisal information derived form properties of similar type and/or locale. A significant portion of the Bank’s impaired loans are measured using the estimated fair market value of the collateral less the estimated costs to sell. The Company has categorized its impaired loans as level 3. The Bank’s appraisal policy generally requires impaired loans to be appraised at six month intervals. Certain impaired loans with current appraisals have been discounted to liquidation value through additional market research of comparable properties, but are still included in Level 3 due to the inherent uncertainty of the appraisal process. Impaired loans that were included in Level 2 prior to 2012 would now be included in Level 3 based on this rationale. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. The recorded investment in impaired loans was $5,750,000 and $5,588,000 with a valuation allowance of $1.2 million and $528,000 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Other real estate owned (OREO) consists of assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Operating costs after acquisition are expensed. The Company foreclosed on one commercial property in December 31, 2011, resulting in $1,140,547 in other real estate owned at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by management of the Company. Upon receipt of an appraisal, management reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with via independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of comparable properties that have been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment, if any, should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value. The most common adjustment to reported appraised values are discounts linked to the estimated decline in value over the passage of time since the last appraisal. Historically the discount factor has ranged from 5% to 30% with the weighted average adjustment for these unobservable inputs at March 31, 2012 being 24%

The Company did not change the methodology used to determine fair value for any financial instruments during 2012. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 fair value measurements during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument for sale at one time, nor do they attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business related to the instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of these estimates.

The following methods and assumptions were used by management to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

Investment securities: Fair values for securities available for sale are generally determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely 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 2).

Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

Index

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (Continued)

FHLB stock: It was not practicable to determine the fair value of the FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits, including interest and non-interest demand accounts, savings, and certain types of money market account) are, by definition, equal to the carrying amount at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures: The fair values of the Company’s Subordinated Debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 3 classification.

Accrued interest receivable/payable: The fair value of accrued interest receivable and payable is based on the fair value hierarchy of the related asset or liability.

Commitments to extend credit and letters of credit: The fair value of commitments are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements and are not significant and, therefore, not presented. Commitments to extend credit are primarily for variable rate loans and letters of credit.

Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. Those estimates that are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision are included in Level 3. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair values presented.

13.	RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In May, 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between U.S. and International accounting principles. Overall, the guidance is consistent with existing U.S. accounting principles; however, there are some amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments in this guidance are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The effect of adopting this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition, but the additional disclosures are included in Note 12.

In June 2011, the FASB amended existing guidance and eliminated the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity. The amendment requires that comprehensive income be presented in either a single continuous statement or in two separate consecutive statements. The amendments in this guidance are effective as of the beginning of a fiscal reporting year, and interim periods within that year, that begins after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The implementation of the amended accounting guidance changed the presentation of the components of comprehensive income for the Company from a component of the consolidated statement of shareholder’s equity to a separate statement following the consolidated statement of income.

Introduction

Overview

Valley Commerce Bancorp (the Company) is the holding company for Valley Business Bank (the Bank), a California state chartered bank. The Company’s principal business is to provide financial services through its banking subsidiary in its primary market areas of Tulare and Fresno Counties in California. The Company derives its income primarily from interest and fees earned on loans and, to a lesser extent, interest on investment securities, fees for services provided to deposit customers, and fees from the brokerage of loans. The Bank’s major operating expenses are interest paid on deposits and borrowings and general operating expenses, consisting primarily of salaries and employee benefits and, to a lesser extent, occupancy and equipment, data processing, FDIC insurance premiums, and operations. The Company does not currently conduct any operations other than through the Bank.

The Company earned net income of $859,000, or $0.27 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $625,000 or $0.19 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The annualized return on average assets was 0.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 0.73% for the same period of 2011. The annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was 8.19% and 6.48%, respectively. The increase in earnings was primarily due to decreases in the provision for loan losses and FDIC assessment insurance.

At March 31, 2012, the Company’s total assets were $350.1 million, a $16.5 million decrease or 4% from total assets of $366.5 million at December 31, 2011, and an increase of $5.6 million or 2% compared to March 31, 2011. Total loans, net of the allowance for loan and lease losses, were $217.0 million at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $7.6 million or 3% compared to December 31, 2011, and a decrease of $4.9 million or 2% compared to March 31, 2011. The decline in loan volume in both periods was primarily attributable to loan paydowns and fewer opportunities for commercial real estate mortgage lending due to slow economic growth.

Total deposits were $308.1 million at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $7.8 million or 2% from total deposits of $315.9 million at December 31, 2011, and an increase of $11.4 million or 4% compared to March 31, 2011. The decline in deposits from year end resulted from the expected seasonal outflow of non-interest bearing deposits that were received in December of the prior year. The Company’s long term growth strategy is based on acquiring core deposits in its local market rather than relying heavily on brokered time deposits or other wholesale funding sources.

At March 31, 2012, the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 10.6% while its Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio were 15.0% and 16.3%, respectively. At December 31, 2011, the Company’s Leverage Ratio was 13.1% while its Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio were 17.6% and 18.9%, respectively. The Leverage, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratios at March 31, 2011 were 12.2%, 17.0%, and 18.2%, respectively. The Company’s capital ratios decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2012 primarily due to the repurchase of $8.1 million of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program offset by net income earned during the period.

(1)

Factors contributing to both changes in rate and volume have been attributed to changes in rates.

Net interest income before the provision for loan losses was $3.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 compared to $3.4 million for the same period of 2011, an increase of $15,000 or 0.4%. Changes in the volumes of the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities caused the Company’s net interest income to increase by $13,000 and changes in interest rates on these same accounts caused net interest income to increase by $2,000.

The increase in net interest income was caused by a reduction in the Company’s cost of funds and volume of interest-bearing liabilities. This was offset by decreases in both average loan volume and declining yields on loans and investment securities. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 0.58% in the 2012 period compared to 0.87% in the 2011 period, a reduction of 29 basis points. Average total interest-bearing liabilities in the 2012 period decreased by $18.7 million or 9% compared to the 2011 period. This included a decrease of $12.6 million or 15% in average time deposits due to the payoff of brokered time deposits and maturing time deposits that were not renewed, and a $2.5 million or 99% decrease in the Company’s average long-term debt due to scheduled maturities.

Total interest income decreased from $3.9 million for the three-months ended at March 31, 2011 to $3.7 million for the three-months ended at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $159,000 or 4%. The primary cause for the decline in total interest income was reduction in the average loan volume during the quarter. The Company’s interest income from loans decreased by $215,000 due to an $8.4 million decrease in average loan volume. The average yield on loans decreased from 6.11% in the 2011 period to 5.90% in the 2012 period. The average yield on interest earning assets decreased from 5.08% in the 2011 period to 4.85% in the 2012 period. The yield on investment securities increased from 3.45% in the 2011 period to 3.78% in the 2012 period due to a $4.4 million or 8% increase in average volume. This caused earnings on investment securities to increase by $51,000 or 14%.

The Company’s net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis increased 1 basis point from 4.49% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 to 4.50% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. The increase in the Company’s net interest margin was primarily attributable to the average cost of funds decreasing at a greater rate than average asset yields.

Index

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses, which is included in operations to support management’s estimate of the required level of the allowance for loan losses, is based on credit experience and management’s ongoing evaluation of loan portfolio risk and economic conditions. There was no loan loss provision recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a $225,000 provision for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011. Management determined the provision for loan losses for the period ended March 31, 2012 after careful consideration of current economic conditions in the Bank’s primary markets and changes in the volume of impaired loans. See the sections below titled “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.”

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 totaled $359,000 and $327,000, respectively, an increase of $32,000 or 10%. The components of non-interest income during each period were as follows:

Non-interest income

	Three Months ended March 31,
(in thousands)	2012		2011		Increase (Decrease)
Service charges	$	179	$	169	$	10
Gain on sale of available-for-sale investment securities, net		28		14		14
Mortgage loan brokerage fees		6		22		(16	)
Earnings on cash surrender value of life insurance policies		86		72		14
Other		60		50		10
Total non-interest income	$	359	$	327	$	32

Service charges increased by $10,000 due to increased service and analysis charges. Mortgage loan brokerage fees decreased by $16,000 due to fewer underwriting opportunities and continuations of strict secondary market conditions. Gain on sale of investment securities increased by $14,000 as the Company executed planned investment strategies. Earnings on cash surrender value of life insurance policies increased $14,000 due to the purchase of an additional policy in 2011.

Non-Interest Expense

For the quarter ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, non-interest expense totaled $2.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively, a decrease of $46,000 or 2%. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $135,000 or 9% to $1.6 million due to new hires and stock option compensation expense recorded during the quarter. This was offset by a $16,000 or 16% decrease in operation expenses and a $139,000 or 81% decrease in FDIC insurance assessments. The decline in FDIC insurance expense relates to a decline in the rate charged to the Bank by the FDIC. Effective April 1, 2011, the FDIC insurance assessment rules changed as a result of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. These new rules changed the assessment base from total deposits to average total assets less tangible capital, but also significantly lowered the assessment rates, causing a net favorable impact on our FDIC insurance premiums.

Index

The following table describes the components of non-interest expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011:

Non-interest expense

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $422,000 and $337,000, respectively.The difference in the effective tax rate compared to the statutory tax rate is primarily the result of the Company’s investment in municipal securities and Company-owned life insurance policies whose income is exempt from Federal taxes. In addition, the Company receives certain tax benefits from the State of California Franchise Tax Board for operating and providing loans, as well as jobs, in designated “Enterprise Zones.”The effective tax rates for these periods were 32.9%, and 35.0%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to increases in revenues from tax exempt sources.

Financial Condition

Fair Value

The Company determines the fair values of financial instruments according to the guidance for fair value measurements and related disclosures. The guidance establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework associated with the level of observable pricing scenarios utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value. The degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of financial instruments generally correlates to the level of the observable pricing scenario. Financial instruments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of observable pricing and a lesser degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value. Conversely, financial instruments rarely traded or not quoted will generally have little or no observable pricing and a higher degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value. Observable pricing scenarios are impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instruments, whether the financial instrument is new to the market and not yet established and the characteristics specific to the transaction. See Note 12 of theNotes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the financial instruments carried at fair value.

Index

Investment Securities

All existing investment securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. In classifying its investments as available-for-sale, the Company reports securities at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net of taxes, as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss within shareholders’ equity.

The following tables set forth the estimated market value of available-for-sale investment securities at the dates indicated:

Total	$	55,321	$	1,458	$	(74	)	$	56,705

Management periodically evaluates each investment security for other than temporary impairment, relying primarily on industry analyst reports, observation of market conditions and interest rate fluctuations. Management believes it will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the underlying investment securities and considers declines in the fair value of individual securities to be temporary.

The current investment portfolio has significant short and medium term cash flows from bond maturities and principal payments on mortgage backed securities. These funds can be used to fund new loans or reinvest in securities and should permit the Company to take advantage of future market rate increases to increase yields on both the loan and investment portfolios.

Index

Loans

The Company’s lending activities are geographically concentrated in the South San Joaquin Valley, primarily in Tulare and Fresno counties. The Company offers both fixed and floating rate loans and obtains collateral in the form of real property, business assets, and deposit accounts, but looks to business and personal cash flows as the primary source of repayment.

The following table sets forth the breakdown of loans outstanding by type at the dates indicated by amount and percentage of the portfolio:

(dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2012					December 31, 2011

Allowance for loan and lease losses		(5,472	)				(5,469	)
Total loans, net	$	216,972				$	224,532

(1) Consists primarily of commercial mortgage loans.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, loans mostly declined in the categories of commercial and real-estate mortgage. The decline in loans was due to the volume of normal loan paydowns exceeding the volume of new loans originated by the Company and strong competition for quality loans in the Company’s target markets.

Nonperforming Assets

Non-performing loans at March 31, 2012 were comprised of eleven customer relationships in nonaccrual status. Nonperforming loans increased during 2012 due to the transfer of two real estate mortgage loans and one commercial loan to nonaccrual status.

A summary of nonperforming assets is set forth below:

Nonaccrual loans to total loans		2.65	%		3.24	%		2.51	%

Our financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, including the recognition of interest income on loans. Interest income from nonaccrual loans is recorded only if collection of principal in full is not in doubt and when and if received.

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when collection of all amounts due according to the original contractual terms is not probable. The category of impaired loans is not coextensive with the category of nonaccrual loans, although the two categories may overlap in part or in full. At March 31, 2012, the recorded investment in twenty-five loans spread among twenty customer relationships that were considered to be impaired totaled $11.6 million. The specific allowance for loan losses for impaired loans at March 31, 2012 totaled $1.2 million. At December 31, 2011, the recorded investment in nineteen loans spread among fifteen customer relationships that were considered to be impaired totaled $10.8 million. The specific allowance for loan losses for impaired loans at December 31, 2011 totaled $528,000. The reduction in impaired loans was due to normal principal repayments during the three months ended March 31, 2012.The portion of the ALLL relating to specific impaired loans was $1.2 million at March 31, 2012 and $528 thousand at December 31, 2011.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan and lease losses to provide for estimated credit losses that, as of the balance sheet date, it is probable the Company will incur. Loans determined to be impaired are evaluated individually by management for determination of the specific loss, if any, that exists as of the balance sheet date. In addition, reserve factors are assigned to currently performing loans based on historical loss rates as adjusted for current economic conditions, trends in the level and volume of past due and classified loans, and other qualitative factors.

The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $5.5 million or 2.46% of total loans at March 31, 2012. This compared to $6.9 million or 3.03% of total loans at March 31, 2011 and $5.5 million or 2.38% at December 31, 2011. The Company recorded $3,000 in recoveries during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to recoveries of $7,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, and net charge-offs of $1.8 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2011.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, management identified approximately $741,000 in loans from non-impaired to impaired status. The transfer of these loans to impaired status resulted in an individual evaluation of impairment and a corresponding increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses related to impaired loans of $187,000. In addition, the loan loss allowance related to loans previously identified as impaired increased by $506,000 due to continued deterioration in collateral. In addition, management’s analysis of loans collectively reviewed for impairment resulted in a decrease in the allowance for loan and lease losses of approximately $690,000 due to; a reduction in the volume of total loans, and certain historical charge-offs recorded prior to 2009 no longer being included in the Company’s twelve quarter historical loss analysis. As a result, no additional provision for loan losses was required during the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

The allowance for loan and lease losses is established through charges to earnings in the form of the provision for loan losses. Loan losses are charged to and recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan and lease losses. The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level deemed appropriate by management to provide for known and inherent risks in loans. The adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses is based upon management’s continuing assessment of various factors affecting the collectability of loans; including current economic conditions, maturity of the portfolio, size of the portfolio, industry concentrations, borrower credit history, collateral, the existing allowance for loan and lease losses, independent credit reviews, current charges and recoveries to the allowance for loan and lease losses and the overall quality of the portfolio as determined by management, regulatory agencies, and independent credit review consultants retained by the Company. There is no precise method of predicting specific losses or amounts which may ultimately be charged off on particular segments of the loan portfolio. The collectability of a loan is subjective to some degree, but must relate to the borrower’s financial condition, cash flow, quality of the borrower’s management expertise, collateral and guarantees, and state of the local economy.

The rate of interest paid on these debentures was 3.90% at March 31, 2012 compared to 3.65% at December 31, 2011.

Capital Resources

The Company’s shareholders’ equity was $35.2 million at March 31, 2012 and $42.5 million at December 31, 2011.

Management considers capital needs as part of its strategic planning process. The ability to obtain capital is dependent upon the capital markets as well as the Company’s performance. Management regularly evaluates sources of capital and the timing required to meet its strategic objectives.

Capital Resources(continued)

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, all of the Company’s capital ratios were in excess of minimum regulatory requirements, and Valley Business Bank exceeded the minimum requirements of a “well capitalized” institution.

Trust preferred securities are included in Tier 1 Capital subject to regulatory limitation. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $3.0 million of trust securities was included in Tier 1 Capital.

On March 21, 2012, pursuant to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and following receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, the Company repurchased the Series B and Series C Preferred Stock which was sold to the United States Department of Treasury in January 2009. The purchase price was $8,085,000 comprised of 7,700 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $1,000 per share and 385 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at $1,000 per share. The Company had no preferred stock remaining after the transaction and made a pro-rated final dividend payment of $41,965 on the transaction date. The amount of preferred stock issued to the Treasury represented approximately 3% of the Company’s risk adjusted assets and served as Tier 1 capital. Accordingly, the impact to the Company’s risk-based capital ratios at March 31, 2012 is a decrease of 260 basis points.

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to provide funds to meet customers’ loan and deposit needs and to fund operations in a timely and cost effective manner. The Company’s primary source of funds is deposits. On an ongoing basis, management anticipates funding needs for loans, asset purchases, maturing deposits, and other needs and initiates deposit promotions as needed. Management measures the Company’s liquidity position monthly through the use of short-term and medium-term internal liquidity calculations. These are monitored on an ongoing basis by the Board of Directors and the Company’s Asset Liability Management Committee.

The Company has a successful history of establishing and retaining deposit relationships with business customers and periodically utilizes collateralized borrowing lines and wholesale funding resources to supplement local deposit growth. These include borrowing lines with FHLB, FRB, and correspondent banks, and utilization of brokered time deposits.
