TD BANKNORTH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2007
(In thousands, except per share data and as noted) (Unaudited)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
We, TD Banknorth Inc. (“TD Banknorth”), are a bank/financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, which conducts business through TD Banknorth, National Association (“TD Banknorth, NA” or the “Bank”) and various nonbanking subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2007, we were a majority-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. On April 18, 2007, our shareholders approved an agreement and plan of merger with The Toronto-Dominion Bank providing for the acquisition by The Toronto-Dominion Bank of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of TD Banknorth Inc. not owned by The Toronto-Dominion Bank or its affiliates for $32.33 per share in cash. On April 20, 2007, this acquisition was completed and TD Banknorth became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. As a result, no earnings per share computations have been included in these financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and predominant practices within the banking industry. We have not changed our significant accounting and reporting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, except for the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). See Note 2 below. There have been no significant changes in the methods or assumptions used in the accounting policies requiring material estimates and assumptions.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included herein. The results of operations for the interim period of 2007 presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the year ending December 31, 2007. Certain amounts in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 — Accounting Changes
The following is a discussion of recently adopted or pending accounting pronouncements.
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (FAS 159”), effective January 1, 2008. FAS 159 provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with the objective to reduce both the complexity in accounting for financial instruments and the volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. We are currently assessing the impact of this guidance on our financial statements.
Fair Value Measurement
In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. FAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. FAS 157 provides guidance about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value and the effect that fair value measurements have on earnings. FAS
7
157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The implementation of FAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes and provides greater consistency in criteria used to recognize, derecognize and measure benefits related to income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken. FIN 48 also provides guidance on classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. We adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. See Note 17. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our financial condition.
Note 3 — Acquisitions
Acquisitions are an important part of our strategic plan. The following table summarizes bank acquisitions completed by us since January 1, 2006. The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and, as a result, were included in our results of operations from the date of acquisition.

Note 4 — Discontinued Operations
As a result of the Hudson acquisition on January 31, 2006, we acquired a 100% interest in United Gasco LLC, a 50% interest in Minnesota Methane and a 100% interest in United Cogen Fuel LLC. The 50% interest in Minnesota Methane is held by a 100% owned subsidiary, UC Investments, Inc., which was established by Hudson solely for that purpose. United Gasco, LLC and UC Investments, Inc. and their subsidiaries are engaged in the extraction and conversion of landfill gas into electricity, which is sold to utilities; this production qualifies as production of fuel from nonconventional sources and generates tax credits under the Internal Revenue Code. We have decided to divest our interests in these subsidiaries, and as a result reflect the businesses of these subsidiaries as discontinued operations. In May 2006, we divested our interest in United Cogen Fuel LLC. In accordance with FAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” our remaining investments have been classified as “held for sale” and recorded at estimated fair value less costs to sell.
Gross revenues from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 amounted to $5.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively.
At March 31, 2007, the aggregate total assets and total liabilities of these investments amounted to $23.8 million and $18.4 million, respectively, and were recorded in other assets and other liabilities, respectively.

Note 5 — Stock Compensation Plans
General
Total stock-based compensation expense recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was $6.6 million and $7.5 million, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized on stock-based compensation was $2.6 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. At March 31, 2007, there was $45.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock-based awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.
Effective April 20, 2007, we became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank and outstanding options to purchase our common stock were converted into cash or options to purchase common shares of The Toronto-Dominion Bank in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement. Upon completion of the acquisition, each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase a share of TD Banknorth common stock that would expire no later than December 31, 2008 vested and was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the excess, if any, rounded to the nearest whole cent, of (1) the merger consideration of $32.33 per share over (2) the exercise price per share of the TD Banknorth common stock subject to such cash-out option and (y) the number of shares of TD Banknorth common stock subject to such cash-out option. In addition, each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase shares of TD Banknorth common stock that would expire after December 31, 2008, whether or not vested or exercisable, was converted into an option to acquire a number of common shares of The Toronto-Dominion Bank equal to the product of (1) the number of shares of TD Banknorth common stock subject to the option multiplied by (2) 53.33%, at an exercise price per common share of The Toronto-Dominion Bank equal to (x) the exercise price per share of TD Banknorth common stock under the option divided by (y) 53.33%, rounded up to the nearest cent.
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
Under the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, we have granted restricted stock and restricted stock units to our directors, officers and eligible employees. All outstanding restricted stock units will be settled in cash and had a three-year vesting period at the time of grant.
The following table summarizes the activity in our nonvested restricted stock and restricted stock units awards during the three months ended March 31, 2007.
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | Weighted | |
| | Restricted Stock | | | Average | |
| | and Restricted | | | Grant-Date | |
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units | | Stock Units | | | Fair Value | |
Nonvested at January 1, 2007 | | | 1,360,837 | | | $ | 30.02 | |
Granted | | | 672,514 | | | | 32.28 | |
Vested | | | (12,367 | ) | | | 30.11 | |
Forfeited | | | (70,767 | ) | | | 30.75 | |

Nonvested at March 31, 2007 | | | 1,950,217 | | | | 30.77 | |

| | | | | | | | |
Vested at March 31, 2007 | | | 33,320 | | | | 30.22 | |
| | | | | | | |
The total fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $398. No restricted stock or restricted stock units vested during the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Upon completion of the merger which resulted in us becoming an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank, each restricted stock unit in respect of TD Banknorth common stock was
9
amended or adjusted to provide that (i) each restricted stock unit will be valued with reference to common shares of The Toronto-Dominion Bank, rather than valued with reference to shares of TD Banknorth common stock, and (ii) the number of notional common shares of The Toronto-Dominion Bank subject to such amended or adjusted award is equal to the product of (x) the number of notional shares of TD Banknorth common stock in respect of such award immediately prior to amendment or adjustment multiplied by (y) 53.33%. Restricted stock units with respect to the common shares of The Toronto-Dominion Bank granted under our 2005 Performance Based Restricted Share Unit Plan were not so adjusted. The performance criteria relating to all outstanding restricted stock units also were adjusted for certain periods to be substantially similar to the methodology used in The Toronto-Dominion Bank’s Performance Based Restricted Share Unit Plan.
Note 6 — Securities Purchased under Agreements to Resell
Securities purchased under agreements to resell consist of the purchase of a security with the commitment by us to resell the security to the original seller at a specified price. These securities purchased under agreements to resell are treated as collateralized financing transactions and are recorded at the amounts at which the securities were acquired plus accrued interest. Our policy is to take possession of the securities purchased. We pledge certain of these securities to collateralize public deposits and borrowings. At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we had $2.4 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, of securities purchased under agreements to resell which mature in 2007.

| | | | | | |
For securities with unrealized losses, the following information was considered in determining that the impairments are not other-than-temporary. U.S. Government securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States and therefore bear no credit risk. U.S. Government agencies securities have minimal credit risk as they play a vital role in the nation’s financial markets. Other bonds and notes are generally comprised of corporate securities and all investments maintain a credit rating of at least investment grade by one of the nationally recognized rating agencies. No unrealized losses were determined to be other-than-temporary for U.S. Government and agencies securities and for other bonds and notes. Mortgage-backed securities or collateralized mortgage obligations are either issued by federal government agencies or by private issuers with minimum security ratings of AA. We have the intent and ability to hold these investments until maturity or until fair value recovers above amortized cost.
U.S. Government, agency and Government-sponsored enterprises securities at March 31, 2007 consisted of one U.S. Treasury note.

We expect to contribute approximately $40.0 million to our pension plans in 2007, none of which is required to satisfy minimum funding requirements. The discretionary contribution is anticipated to be paid in December after final review of the 2007 pension obligation and, as in prior years, is expected to be paid entirely in cash.
Note 16 — Merger and Restructuring Costs
In connection with the consolidation and/or closing of 24 existing branch offices and a reduction in force of approximately 400 employees, we recorded a restructuring charge of $13.1 million, pre-tax, in the quarter ended March 31, 2007, including a charge of approximately $8.2 million, pre-tax, for severance payments to be made to employees upon termination.

Note 17 — Income Taxes
We adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, we recognized approximately a $3.5 million increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, $5.0 million which was accounted for as adjustments to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings and $1.5 million as an adjustment to goodwill for pre-acquisition contingencies. As of the date of adoption, we had approximately $45.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits (including interest and penalties). If that $45.2 million were recognized, $28.7 million of it would affect our effective tax rate.
We are currently under audit by various states relative to filing positions taken. While we believe we have substantial defenses to any state tax assessments, there can be no assurance that the outcome of any such assessments will not have an adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations in any future period. We are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible changes in the level of unrecognized tax benefits that may occur within the coming year. Tax years from 2002 and later are currently open for federal examination purposes. Years from 1998 and later are currently open for purposes of state examinations in the significant states where we do business.
We classify interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we recognized approximately $1.2 million in interest and penalties, net of tax. We had approximately $8.1 million for the payment of interest and penalties accrued at March 31, 2007, which is included in other liabilities.
Note 18 — Related Party Transactions
We and our subsidiaries participate in various transactions with The Toronto-Dominion Bank and its affiliates. Transactions involving our banking subsidiary, TD Banknorth, NA and its nonbanking affiliates (including TD Banknorth and The Toronto-Dominion Bank) are subject to review by regulatory authorities and are required to be on terms at least as favorable to TD Banknorth, NA as those prevailing at the time for similar non-affiliate transactions. Transactions between The Toronto-Dominion Bank and TD Banknorth and their respective affiliates have included interest rate swap agreements, foreign exchange activities, international services, cost reimbursements, referral fees, intercompany deposits and borrowings and TD Banknorth’s sale of 13.0 million and 29.6 million shares of common stock to The Toronto-Dominion Bank for $405.2 million and $941.8 million in connection with the Interchange acquisition on January 1, 2007 and the Hudson acquisition on January 31, 2006, respectively.
The following table sets forth the amounts due to and from The Toronto-Dominion Bank and off-balance sheet transactions with The Toronto-Dominion Bank at March 31, 2007.

The effect on pre-tax income of transactions with The Toronto-Dominion Bank was an increase of $10.9 million and $2.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase was largely due to the income recorded on interest rate swap agreements which are accounted for as cash flow hedges.
We and The Toronto-Dominion Bank have entered into a Stewardship Agreement under which TD Banknorth is reimbursed for the cost of certain services provided for the benefit of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. Services covered by the Stewardship Agreement include participation in The Toronto-Dominion Bank senior management meetings, participation in The Toronto-Dominion Bank strategic planning sessions, monthly financial reporting in The Toronto-Dominion Bank formats, corporate rebranding, Basel II planning, monitoring of compliance of intercompany activities and assistance in various corporate initiatives with The Toronto-Dominion Bank. We bill The Toronto-Dominion Bank monthly under the Stewardship Agreement. Monthly billings under this agreement averaged $0.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
In September 2005, TD Banknorth, NA issued subordinated notes denominated in Canadian currency totaling $270 million (or approximately $229 million in U.S. dollars). The Canada Trust Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank, is the issuing and paying agent, note registrar and calculation agent for the notes.
At March 31, 2007, we also had a $110 million unsecured line of credit with The Toronto-Dominion Bank. The line is renewable every 364 days and, if used, carries interest at LIBOR plus 0.60%. TD Banknorth did not utilize the line of credit during the three months ended March 31, 2007.
TD Banknorth, NA has been approved to purchase up to $2.5 billion of Federal Funds from The Toronto-Dominion Bank at the Federal Funds market rate. There have been no purchases of Federal Funds from The Toronto-Dominion Bank to date.
Note 19 – Subsequent Events
On April 18, 2007, our shareholders approved the agreement and plan of merger with The Toronto-Dominion Bank providing for the acquisition by The Toronto-Dominion Bank of all of the outstanding
17
shares of common stock of TD Banknorth Inc. not currently owned by The Toronto-Dominion Bank or its affiliates for $32.33 per share in cash. On April 20, 2007, this acquisition was completed and TD Banknorth became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank.
In April 2007, plans were approved that will consolidate certain facilities, operations and employees in connection with becoming an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. Additionally, we entered into amendments to employment and award agreements with two executives that accelerated certain retention payments and vesting of stock option and restricted stock unit awards under those agreements. In connection with these actions, we expect to record a restructuring charge of approximately $38.5 million, pre-tax, ($26.9 million after-tax) in the quarter ending June 30, 2007.
Item 2.
TD BANKNORTH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(In thousands, except per share data and as noted)
General
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations describes the principal factors affecting the results of operations of TD Banknorth Inc. pursuant to General Instruction H(2)(a) of Form 10-Q.
We, TD Banknorth Inc., are a Delaware corporation and a registered bank/financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. As of March 31, 2007, we were a majority-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. On April 20, 2007, we became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. See Note 19 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. At March 31, 2007, we had consolidated assets of $41.2 billion and consolidated shareholders’ equity of $8.7 billion.
Our principal asset is all of the capital stock of TD Banknorth, NA, a national bank which was initially formed as a Maine-chartered savings bank in the mid-19th century. At March 31, 2007, TD Banknorth, NA had 606 banking offices in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Vermont and served approximately 1.6 million households and commercial customers. Through TD Banknorth, NA and its subsidiaries, we offer a full range of banking services and products to individuals, businesses and governments throughout our market areas, including commercial banking, consumer banking, investment management, investment planning, private label credit cards for certain retailers and other businesses, insurance premium financing and insurance agency services.
Executive Overview
| • | | In March 2007, we announced various expense reductions and operational initiatives which are intended to improve our future operating performance. These initiatives are being taken in light of our recent financial results, the intensely competitive environment for banking services, current economic conditions and the recently-completed going-private transaction and are intended to reduce our annual operating expenses by 5% to 8% ($50 to $80 million, respectively) by 2008. |
|
| • | | Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 amounted to $55.2 million compared to $76.2 million for the same period last year. This decrease was primarily attributable to increased merger and restructuring charges ($10.8 million pre-tax) and increased provisions for loan and lease losses ($23.1 million pre-tax) due to increases in nonperforming assets and net charge-offs, which reflect the |
18
| | | deterioration in new construction residential real estate loans, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic and southern New England regions. |
|
| • | | We completed the acquisition of Interchange Financial Services Corporation (“Interchange”) on January 1, 2007. Interchange had $1.6 billion in assets at the acquisition date. |
|
| • | | Noninterest income increased by $15.7 million or 13% as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2006 due to the acquisition of Interchange on January 1, 2007 and a full quarter of income from the acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006. |
|
| • | | Noninterest expense increased by $41.0 million or 15% due primarily to a $10.8 million increase in merger and restructuring costs, increased operating expenses related to Interchange and Hudson and an $8 million contribution to our charitable foundation in March 2007. |
|
| • | | Nonperforming assets increased from $132.4 million at December 31, 2006 to $225.2 million at March 31, 2007 primarily as a result of increases in nonaccrual commercial real estate loans. At March 31, 2007, nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets amounted to 0.55% compared to 0.33% at December 31, 2006. These increases resulted from the deterioration in the residential real estate construction markets in our lending areas. |
Our financial condition and liquidity remain strong. The following are important factors in understanding our financial condition and liquidity:
| • | | using the definition of federal banking regulators, we continue to be “well-capitalized”; |
|
| • | | In March 2007, Moody’s raised our long-term debt rating to Aa3”; and |
|
| • | | our liquidity measures at March 31, 2007 met our policy guidelines. |
Outlook
We expect that 2007 will continue to be a challenging year. Earnings for the remainder of 2007 will depend on the interest rate environment, the shape of the yield curve, our ability to obtain loans and hold/grow deposits, asset quality and the success of revenue/expense initiatives now underway. Competition for high-quality loans and deposits will continue. Excluding the effects of acquisitions, we expect only single-digit loan and deposit growth in 2007. We are responding to these challenges with the following actions being implemented during 2007:
| • | | Increase our focus on organic loan and deposit growth; |
|
| • | | Focus on process improvements and branch consolidations to reduce operating costs; |
|
| • | | Grow/develop deposit relationships by providing quality services, simplifying fee structures and eliminating certain fees; |
|
| • | | Continue to review the performance characteristics of our branch network; and |
|
| • | | Review our pricing on loans and deposits in certain market areas. |
In addition, our nonperforming assets and our provision for loan and lease losses levels represent significant increases over historical levels, but given current conditions, we do not expect these levels to decline in the near future.
Acquisition by The Toronto-Dominion Bank
On April 18, 2007, our shareholders approved the agreement and plan of merger with The Toronto-Dominion Bank providing for the acquisition by The Toronto-Dominion Bank of all of the outstanding
19
shares of common stock of TD Banknorth Inc. not currently owned by The Toronto-Dominion Bank or its affiliates for $32.33 per share in cash. On April 20, 2007, this transaction was completed and TD Banknorth became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank.
Acquisitions
Our profitability and market share have been enhanced in recent years through acquisitions. Acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book and market values, and therefore, some dilution of our tangible book value and net income per common share may occur in connection with these transactions. Moreover, acquisitions commonly result in significant one-time charges against earnings, although cost-savings, especially incident to in-market acquisitions, frequently are anticipated, as are revenue enhancements.
During 2006 and 2007, we acquired the two financial institutions listed below. Our financial statements include the results of these bank acquisitions since the date of acquisition.

Net Interest Income and Margin
Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of 2007 increased $16.0 million, or 6%, compared to the first quarter of 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to the following items:
| • | | a full quarter of income from the acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006 compared to two months last year; |
|
| • | | an increase in net earning assets as a result of the acquisition of Interchange on January 1, 2007; |
|
| • | | a change in the mix of average earning assets resulting from the deleveraging program late in the first quarter of 2006 (loans comprised 85% of average earning assets during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to 79% for the same period last year); and |
|
| • | | changes in the composition of interest-bearing liabilities resulting from the deleveraging program late in the first quarter of 2006 (deposits comprised 87% of interest-bearing liabilities during 2007 compared to 76% during 2006). |
The increase in net interest income related to the above items was offset in part by a lower net interest rate spread from the impact of rising short-term interest rates (which increased costs of funds faster than asset yields) and competitive conditions in our market areas.
Fully-taxable equivalent interest income increased by $60.7 million for the first quarter of 2007 as compared the same period last year. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in earning assets from $39.0 billion in the first quarter of 2006 to $41.4 billion in the first quarter of 2007, an increase of $2.4 billion. The increase in earning assets was primarily due to the acquisition of Interchange on January 1, 2007 and the effects of the Hudson acquisition for a full quarter. The increase in interest income also reflected rising short-term interest rates and the effects of a balance sheet deleveraging program late in the first quarter of 2006.
20
Interest expense increased by $44.7 million in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the first quarter of 2006 as a result of rising short term interest rates, higher average interest-bearing liabilities and competitive conditions in our market areas. The weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 3.40% in the first quarter of 2007, up from 2.76% in the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 64 basis points. The weighted average cost of deposits increased by 94 basis points and the weighted average cost of borrowings increased by 48 basis points. Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $3.4 billion or 17%, primarily due to the Interchange acquisition and the effects of the Hudson acquisition for a full quarter. Average borrowings declined by $2.8 billion in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the first quarter of 2006 due to a balance sheet deleveraging program late in the first quarter of 2006, which were offset in part by borrowings assumed from the Interchange acquisition.
Net interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted average yield earned on our interest-earning assets and the weighted average rate paid on our interest-bearing liabilities. Our net interest rate spread decreased to 3.34% in the first quarter of 2007 from 3.42% in the first quarter of 2006 because the 56 basis point increase in the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets was less than the 64 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, primarily as a result of rising short-term interest rates and intense competition for deposits.
Table 2 sets forth, for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, information regarding (i) the total dollar amount of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average cost; (iii) net interest income; (iv) interest rate spread; and (v) net interest margin. For purposes of the tables and the above discussion, (i) income from interest-earning assets and net interest income is presented on a fully-taxable equivalent basis primarily by adjusting income and yields earned on tax-exempt interest received on loans to qualifying borrowers and on certain of our securities to make them equivalent to income and yields earned on fully-taxable investments, assuming a federal income tax rate of 35%, and (ii) nonaccrual loans have been included in the appropriate average balance loan category, but unpaid interest on nonaccrual loans has not been included for purposes of determining interest income. Average balances are based on average daily balances during the indicated periods.

Provision and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The provision for loan and lease losses is recorded to bring the allowance for loan and lease losses to a level deemed appropriate by management based on factors discussed under “Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” in the “Risk Management” section below. Although we use our best judgment in providing for losses, for the reasons discussed under the “Risk Management” section, there can be no assurance that we will not have to increase the amount of our provision for loan and lease losses in future periods, which would adversely affect our results of operations.
We provided $30.0 million and $6.9 million for loan and lease losses in the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in the provision for loan and lease losses in the first quarter of 2007 reflects increases in nonperforming loans and net charge-offs compared to the quarters ended December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006. Nonperforming loans amounted to $222.5 million compared to $131.4 million and $78.6 million at December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively. Net charge-offs amounted to $19.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $14.1 million and $6.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans and leases was 0.30% (annualized) in the first quarter of 2007 and 0.10% (annualized) in the first quarter of 2006. The coverage ratio (ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans) was 141% at March 31, 2007, as compared to 220% at December 31, 2006 and 362% at March 31, 2006.
23
In addition to the provisions made for on-balance sheet loans and leases, we provided $1.8 million and $300 thousand for loss reserves related to off-balance sheet loan commitments in the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This provision for off-balance sheet loan commitments is included with other noninterest expense.
See “Risk Management” below for further information on the provision for loan and lease losses, net charge-offs, nonperforming assets, allowance for credit losses and other factors we consider in assessing the credit quality of our loan and lease portfolio and establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased by $15.7 million, or 13%, during the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006, primarily due to increased income from deposit services, bank-owned life insurance and other noninterest income, including loan fee income. Our new focus on simplifying fee structures and increased volumes has driven the increases in deposit services fee income and loan fee income. Income from bank-owned life insurance increased primarily due to additional investment earnings on higher average balances. The increased volumes resulted primarily from the acquisitions of Interchange and Hudson.
The following table presents noninterest income during the periods indicated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Deposit services income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 increased $6.4 million, or 17%, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to volume increases and the benefits of new initiatives to simplify overdraft fee structures.
Income from bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) for the three months ended March 31, 2007 increased $1.5 million, or 21%, compared to the same period last year. The cash surrender value of our BOLI was $828.7 million at March 31, 2007 compared to $791.5 million at December 31, 2006. The $37.2 million increase was primarily due to amounts acquired from Interchange and investment earnings. Investment in BOLI provides a tax-advantaged means to mitigate increasing employee benefit costs.
24
Other noninterest income increased $5.9 million, or 24%, in the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the same period last year. For the quarter, the increase was primarily due to a $4.5 million increase in loan fee income, largely due to an increase of $1.7 million in commercial swap fees and an increase of $923 thousand in fees on credit card receivables. Miscellaneous other noninterest income includes commissions on our official check program, gains on sales of expired leases and other miscellaneous items.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $41.0 million, or 15%, in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases were primarily due to merger and restructuring costs, compensation and employee benefits and corporate contributions.
The following table presents noninterest expense during the periods indicated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Compensation and employee benefits expense increased $11.8 million, or 9%, in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher salaries and benefit costs resulting from the acquisition of Interchange and additional expenses from the Hudson acquisition (three months of expense in 2007 compared to two months of expense in 2006) and, to a lesser extent, higher incentive costs in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year.
Occupancy expense increased $3.5 million, or 15%, in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to expenses associated with additional facilities from acquisitions, including depreciation.
25
Equipment expense increased $2.6 million, or 18%, in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to increased costs from acquisitions, depreciation on new equipment purchases and higher equipment maintenance expenses.
Merger and restructuring costs increased $10.8 million, or 54%, in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to a $9.0 million increase in costs incurred in connection with the going-private transaction, $5.6 million increase in costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of Interchange and $2.4 million increase in restructuring costs, offset by $6.3 million reduction in Hudson merger related costs. For a tabular analysis of our merger and restructuring costs, see Note 16 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Corporate contributions increased $8.2 million in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year due to an $8 million contribution made to our charitable foundation. Our Board approved an $8.0 million contribution to the TD Banknorth Charitable Foundation in connection with the going-private transaction to reflect our continued commitment to the communities we do business in after the going-private transaction is completed.
Taxes
The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was 32.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to 33.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease related primarily to increased tax-exempt income (as a percent of pre-tax income). The effective tax rate for the remainder of 2007 is expected to be approximately 31% on income from continuing operations.
We are subject to examinations by various federal and state governmental tax authorities from time to time regarding tax returns we have filed. Certain state income tax returns filed by us in recent years have been examined and assessments have been made by state tax authorities with respect to certain of these returns. We believe that we have substantial defenses to these assessments and intend to appeal them in accordance with administrative procedures. Based on currently available information, audits in process, our assessment of risks and established reserves, we believe that the eventual outcome of existing and potential state tax assessments will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting such matters, there can be no absolute assurance that the outcome of any such assessments will not have an adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations in any future reporting period.
Comprehensive Income
Our comprehensive income amounted to $60.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to $65.5 million for the same period last year. Comprehensive income differs from our net income as a result of changes in the amount of unrealized gains and losses on our portfolio of securities available for sale and on our derivative contracts that are accounted for as cash flow hedges and on net gains in our defined benefit pension plans. For additional information, see the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Note 12 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers and to reduce our own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to originate loans, commitments to invest in real estate limited partnerships, standby letters of credit, recourse arrangements on serviced loans, forward commitments to sell loans, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and other derivative contracts. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in our Consolidated Balance
26
Sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement we have in particular classes of financial instruments.
Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments, standby letters of credit and recourse arrangements generally is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We use the same credit policies in making these commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. For forward commitments to sell loans, the contract or notional amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss.
The following table summarizes our contractual cash obligations, other commitments and derivative financial instruments at March 31, 2007.

Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity amounted to $8.7 billion at March 31, 2007, an increase of $424 million from our $8.3 billion of shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to our sale of $405.2 million of TD Banknorth common stock to The Toronto-Dominion Bank in connection with our acquisition of Interchange. Comprehensive income of $60.0 million also contributed to the increase. These increases were offset in part by the payment of $53.3 million of cash dividends declared on our common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2007. Dividends declared in the first quarter of 2007 and 2006 were $0.22 per share.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The primary goal of our risk management program is to determine how certain existing or emerging issues in the financial services industry affect the nature and extent of the risks faced by us. Based on a periodic self-evaluation, we determine key issues and develop plans and/or objectives to address risk. Our board of directors and management believe that there are seven applicable “risk categories,” consisting of credit, interest rate, liquidity,
28
transaction, compliance, strategic and reputation risk. Each risk category is viewed from a quantity of risk perspective (high, medium or low) coupled with a quality of risk management perspective. In addition, an aggregate level of risk is assigned as a whole, as well as the direction of risk (stable, increasing or decreasing). Each risk category and the overall risk level is compared to regulatory views on a regular basis and then reported to the board with an accompanying explanation as to the existence of any differences. The risk program includes risk identification, measurement, control and monitoring.
Our board of directors establishes the overall strategic direction for TD Banknorth. It approves our overall risk policies and oversees our overall risk management process. The board has established the Audit Committee and, through TD Banknorth, NA, the Board Risk Committee, to oversee key risks. In addition, there is a management Operational Risk Committee, which is comprised of senior officers in key business lines, which identifies and monitors key operational risks. The Operational Risk Committee reports on a regular basis to the Board Risk Committee.
CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
General
The Board Risk Committee monitors our credit risk management. Our strategy for credit risk management includes centralized policies and uniform underwriting criteria for all loans. The strategy also includes diversification on a geographic, industry and customer level, regular credit examinations and quarterly management review of large loans and loans with a deterioration of credit quality. We maintain an internal rating system that provides a mechanism to regularly monitor the credit quality of our loan portfolio. The rating system is intended to identify and measure the credit quality of lending relationships. For consumer loans, we utilize standard credit scoring systems to assess consumer credit risks and to price consumer products accordingly. We strive to identify potential problem loans early, take any necessary charge-offs promptly and maintain adequate reserve levels for potential losses.
The following table presents the composition of our loan and lease portfolio at the dates indicated.

Our residential loans are generally secured by single-family homes (one-to-four units) and have a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 80%, unless the excess is protected by mortgage insurance.
Our commercial real estate mortgage loan portfolio consists primarily of loans secured by income-producing commercial real estate (including office and industrial buildings), service industry real estate (including hotels and health care facilities), multi-family (over four units) residential properties and retail trade real estate. These loans generally are secured by properties located in the New England states, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.
29
Our commercial business loans and leases, which include term loans and lines of credit, are generally made to small to medium size businesses located within our market areas. These loans are not concentrated in any particular industry, but reflect the broad-based economy of New England, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York. Commercial loans are primarily secured by various equipment, machinery and other corporate assets including real estate, as well as loans to provide working capital to businesses in the form of lines of credit. At March 31, 2007, commercial loans also included $342.6 million of loans to finance insurance premiums, which are offered by Flatiron, a subsidiary acquired in the Hudson acquisition. Through a subsidiary, we also offer direct equipment leases, which amounted to $140.6 million at March 31, 2007. From time to time we also purchase participations in shared national credits. At March 31, 2007, we had $862.6 million of outstanding participations in shared national credits and had an additional $826.8 million of unfunded commitments related to these participations.
Consumer loans and leases consist primarily of home equity lines and loans and indirect automobile loans.
The following table presents a breakdown of our consumer loans and leases by type at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Credit card receivables represent receivables originating from the use of private label credit cards issued on behalf of approximately 100 retailers with locations throughout the United States which offer unsecured sales financing to their customers. Our relationships with the merchants are generally multi-year relationships. The relationships are developed through marketing efforts or are purchased from other financial institutions. We receive a fee from the merchants when funding a purchase. In addition, we receive interest and late fees from the individual customers that maintain balances on their private label accounts.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans (which do not include accruing loans 90 days or more overdue), other real estate owned and repossessed assets. Total nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets amounted to 0.55% at March 31, 2007, 0.33% at December 31, 2006 and 0.22% at March 31, 2006. Total nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans and total other nonperforming assets amounted to 0.84% at March 31, 2007, 0.52% at December 31, 2006 and 0.35% at March 31, 2006. See Table 9 for a summary of nonperforming assets for the last five quarters. On a dollar basis, our nonperforming assets increased to $225.2 million at March 31, 2007 from $132.4 million at December 31, 2006 and $90.7 million at March 31, 2006. The increase at March 31, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006 was primarily due to the continued deterioration in residential real estate construction loans, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic and southern New England regions, and nonperforming assets acquired from our recent acquisitions.
The following table presents information regarding our nonperforming assets for the last five quarters.

We continue to focus on asset quality issues and to allocate significant resources to the key asset quality control functions of credit policy and administration and loan review. The collection and workout functions focus on the reduction of nonperforming assets. Despite the ongoing focus on asset quality, there can be no assurance that adverse changes in the real estate markets and economic conditions in our primary market areas will not result in higher net loan charge-offs, higher nonperforming asset levels in the future and negatively impact our operations through higher provisions for loan losses, decreased accrual of interest income and increased noninterest expenses as a result of the allocation of resources to the collection and workout of nonperforming assets, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations.
Residential real estate loans are generally placed on nonaccrual when they become 120 days past due or are in the process of foreclosure. All closed-end consumer loans 90 days or more past due, unless well secured and in the process of collection, and any equity lines of credit in the process of foreclosure are placed on nonaccrual status. Consumer loans are charged-off upon reaching 120 or 180 days past due depending on the type of loan. Credit card receivables are charged-off upon reaching 180 days past due. We generally place all commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans and leases which are 90 days or more past due on nonaccrual status, unless secured by sufficient cash or other assets immediately convertible to cash. At March 31, 2007, we had $15.1 million of accruing loans which were 90 days or more delinquent, as compared to $16.7 million at December 31, 2006 and $12.9 million at March 31, 2006. We may also place loans which are less than 90 days past due on nonaccrual (and, therefore, nonperforming) status when in our judgment these loans are likely to present future principal and/or interest repayment problems and ultimately would be classified as nonperforming.

Net Charge-offs
Net charge-offs amounted to $19.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $6.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase was largely due to a $10.6 million increase in net charge-offs on commercial loans and a $2.6 million increase in net charge-offs on credit card receivables compared to the first quarter of 2006. The commercial loan charge-offs were largely attributable to a few credits in the Mid-Atlantic and southern New England regions.

Potential Problem Loans
In addition to the nonperforming loans discussed under “Credit Risk Management” above, we also have loans that are 30 to 89 days delinquent and still accruing. These loans amounted to $318 million at March 31, 2007 and $302 million at December 31, 2006. These loans and related delinquency trends are considered in the evaluation of the allowance for loan and lease losses and the determination of the provision for loan and lease losses.
Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level determined to be adequate by us to cover potential charge-offs on loans and leases deemed uncollectible based on continuous review of a variety of factors. This allowance is increased by provisions charged to income and by recoveries on loans previously charged off. For purposes of determining our allowance for loan and lease losses, we specifically evaluate each commercial business and commercial real estate loan which is rated substandard and has a balance in excess of $300 thousand. We evaluate all other loans by loan type on a pooled basis.
Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan and lease losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment and is determined based on our ongoing evaluation. As discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies,” we believe that the methods used by us in determining the allowance for loan and lease losses constitute a critical accounting policy. Although we utilize judgment in providing for losses, for the reasons discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies” and “Credit Risk Management – Nonperforming Assets,” there can be no assurance that we will not have to increase the amount of our provision for loan and lease losses in future periods.
The allowance for loan and lease losses amounted to $301.4 million at March 31, 2007 and $279.6 million at December 31, 2006. The $21.8 million increase was attributable to $11.4 million of general reserves from Interchange and the provision of $30.0 million for loan and lease losses in the three months ended March 31, 2007. Net charge-offs represented 0.30% of average loans and leases outstanding for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 and 0.10% for the same period in 2006. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans and leases was 141% at March 31, 2007 and 220% at December 31, 2006. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to total portfolio loans and leases was 1.17% at March 31, 2007 compared to 1.13% at December 31, 2006.
Derivative Instruments
Purpose and Benefits
Derivative financial instruments are important tools that we use to manage interest rate risk and, to a lesser degree, currency risk and price risk.

Customer-related Positions
Interest rate derivatives, primarily interest-rate swaps, offered to commercial borrowers through our hedging program are designated as speculative under SFAS No. 133. However, we believe that our exposure to commercial customer derivatives is limited because these contracts are simultaneously matched at inception with an identical dealer transaction. The commercial customer hedging program allows us to retain variable-rate commercial loans while allowing the customer to synthetically fix the loan rate by entering into a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap. For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we recorded a total notional amount of $223.3 million of interest rate swap agreements with commercial borrowers and an equal notional amount of dealer transactions.It is anticipated that over time customer interest rate derivatives will reduce the interest rate risk inherent in our longer-term, fixed-rate commercial business and real estate loans. The customer-related positions summarized in Table 11 include both the customer and offsetting dealer transactions.
Foreign Exchange or Market Risk
Our earnings are not directly nor materially impacted by movements in foreign currency rates or commodity prices. Virtually all transactions are denominated in the U.S. dollar. Movements in equity prices may have an indirect but modest impact on earnings by affecting the volume of activity or the amount of fees from investment-related businesses.
We enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts as an accommodation for customers involved in international trade for the future delivery or purchase of foreign currency at a specified price. For these creditworthy customers, we set aside a percentage of the customer’s available line of credit until the foreign currency contract is settled. All foreign exchange services and some aspects of trade services are provided under a private label arrangement with a correspondent bank. Risks arise from the possible inability of the seller and/or our customer to
35
perform and from any resultant exposure to movement in foreign currency exchange rates, limiting our exposure to the replacement value of the contracts rather than the notional principal or contract amounts.
CAPITAL
We are committed to managing capital for shareholder benefit and maintaining protection for deposits and creditors. At March 31, 2007, shareholders’ equity amounted to $8.7 billion, or 21.22% of total assets, compared to $8.3 billion, or 20.72% of total assets at December 31, 2006.
Capital guidelines issued by the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC, respectively, require us and our banking subsidiary to maintain certain capital ratios, set forth below. At March 31, 2007, TD Banknorth Inc. and TD Banknorth, NA were deemed to be “well capitalized” under the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC, respectively, and in compliance with applicable capital requirements.

On November 2, 2006, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) adopted final regulations to implement the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (the “Reform Act”) passed by Congress earlier this year to create a stronger and more stable insurance system. The final regulation includes the annual assessment rates that will take effect at the beginning of 2007. The new assessment rates for nearly all banks will vary between five and seven cents for every $100 of domestic deposits. Applied to TD Banknorth’s assessment base of approximately $30 billion, this translates to an annual deposit premium estimated to be between $15 million and $21 million. Most banks, including TD Banknorth, have not been required to pay any deposit insurance premiums since 1995. As part of the Reform Act, Congress provided credits to institutions that paid high premiums in the past to bolster the
36
FDIC’s insurance reserves. As a result, according to the FDIC, the majority of banks will have assessment credits to initially offset all of their premiums in 2007. The preliminary assessment credit for TD Banknorth was calculated at $31 million. This amount will be recognized only to the extent the credit is used to reduce future deposit premiums that would otherwise be due. Accordingly, we expect the reinstitution of deposit premiums by the FDIC will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows until 2008 or 2009.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our accounting and reporting policies comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. The financial position and results of operations can be affected by these estimates and assumptions, which are integral to understanding reported results. Management has discussed the development and the selection of critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of our board of directors. We have not changed our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, except for the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). As discussed in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have identified the following critical accounting policies: allowance for loan and lease losses, accounting for acquisitions and review of related goodwill and other intangible assets, accounting for pension plans, accrued income taxes and accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. We consider these policies as our critical accounting policies due to the potential impact on our results of operations and the carrying value of certain of our assets based on any changes in judgments and assumptions required to be made by us in the application of these policies.
IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
For information on the impact of new accounting standards, see Note 2 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained herein are not based on historical facts and are “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements, which are based on various assumptions (some of which are beyond our control), may be identified by reference to a future period or periods, or by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,” “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue” or similar terms or variations on those terms or the negative of those terms. Forward-looking statements are subject to various factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in general economic conditions, interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, competition, legislation or regulation and accounting principles, policies or guidelines, as well as other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, accounting and technological factors affecting our operations. In addition, acquisitions may result in large one-time charges to income, may not produce revenue enhancements or cost savings at levels or within time frames originally anticipated and may result in unforeseen integration difficulties. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Omitted pursuant to General Instruction H(2)(c) of Form 10-Q.
37
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and are operating in an effective manner.
In the ordinary course of business, we routinely enhance our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting by either upgrading our current systems or implementing new systems. Changes have been made and will be made to our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting as a result of these efforts. No change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Not applicable.
Part II — Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Ordinary Course Litigation: In the ordinary course of business, TD Banknorth and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to a number of pending and threatened legal actions, including actions brought on behalf of various putative classes of claimants. Certain of these actions assert claims for substantial monetary damages against TD Banknorth and its subsidiaries. Based on currently available information, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage and established reserves, management does not believe that the eventual outcome of pending litigation against TD Banknorth and its subsidiaries will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations of TD Banknorth. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting such matters, however, there can be no assurance that the outcome of any such action will not have a material adverse effect on TD Banknorth’s consolidated results of operations in any future reporting period.
Shareholder Litigation regarding Going-Private Transaction: On November 20, 2006, the day the merger agreement between TD Banknorth and The Toronto-Dominion Bank was announced, five complaints were filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery against TD Banknorth, TD Banknorth’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), and with the exception of one complaint, The Toronto-Dominion Bank. A sixth complaint was filed on November 21, 2006
One week later, two complaints were filed in the Supreme Court of New York on November 28 and 30, 2006, respectively.
Finally, an action was filed on December 8, 2006 in Superior Court of the State of Maine. All nine complaints are putative class actions filed on behalf of TD Banknorth’s former public stockholders, which sought to enjoin the recently completed transaction or collect damages on the grounds that disclosure has been inadequate and that the consideration offered by The Toronto-Dominion Bank is inadequate. They all allege that TD Banknorth’s directors and its majority shareholder, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, have breached fiduciary duties to the public shareholders by allowing The Toronto-Dominion Bank to exert undue control over TD Banknorth within the merger process.
38
In an order issued on November 29, 2006, the Delaware Court of Chancery approved the Delaware plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the six Delaware cases into one comprehensive action within that court. On or about February 21, 2007, the parties to the consolidated actionIn re TD Banknorth Shareholders Litigation., entered into a memorandum of understanding providing for the settlement of the six lawsuits comprising this consolidated action, without admission of any wrongdoing by any of the defendants. The memorandum of understanding provides for, among other things, the establishment by The Toronto-Dominion Bank of a settlement fund for the benefit of public TD Banknorth stockholders in an aggregate amount of approximately $2.95 million. While TD Banknorth and The Toronto-Dominion Bank believe that these lawsuits are without merit, they sought a settlement in order to avoid the burdens and expense of further litigation. Notice is being provided to all qualified stockholders of a “fairness hearing” in the Delaware Chancery Court for Newcastle County to be held on the proposed settlement on June 27, 2007. Voluntary stays of the New York and Maine actions have been filed with the respective courts.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. As of March 31, 2007, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
