Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Alarion Financial Services, Inc.
Ocala, Florida:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alarion Financial Services, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
At December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the Years Then Ended
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization. Alarion Financial Services, Inc. (the “Holding Company”) owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of Alarion Bank (the “Bank”) and North Central Florida Developers Corporation. The Holding Company’s primary activity is the operation of the Bank and North Central Florida Developers Corporation. The Bank is a state (Florida)-chartered commercial bank. The Bank offers a variety of banking and financial services to individual and corporate customers through its six banking offices located in Ocala, Gainesville and Alachua, Florida. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured up to the applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. North Central Florida Developers Corporation holds loans or assets that might require a longer term hold to realize full economic value.
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Holding Company, the Bank and North Central Florida Developers Corporation (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting practices of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to general practices within the banking industry. The following summarizes the more significant of these polices and practices.
Use of Estimates. In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of deferred tax assets and other real estate owned.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances due from banks, interest-earning deposits (including time deposits with original maturities of ninety days or less) and federal funds sold, all of which mature within ninety days.
At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Bank was not required by law or regulation to maintain cash reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank, in accounts with other banks or in the vault.

Securities. Securities may be classified as either trading, held to maturity or available for sale. Securities that are held principally for resale in the near term are considered trading securities and recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in operations. Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities consist of securities not classified as trading securities nor as held-to-maturity securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from operations and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific-identification method. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest-income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.
Loans. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding principal adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs.
Loan origination fees are capitalized and certain direct origination costs are deferred. Both are recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan.
For loans amortized at cost, interest income is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance.
The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is ninety days delinquent unless the loan is well collateralized and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan.
All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. There were no changes in the Company’s accounting policies or methodology during the year ended December 31, 2010.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. Loan losses will be charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, will be credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Allowance for Loan Losses, Continued.The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are considered impaired. For such loans, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows or the collateral value of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.
For all loans the general component is based on historical loss experience and adjusted for the following qualitative factors: changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices not considered elsewhere in estimating credit losses; changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the condition of various market segments; changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and in the terms of the loans; changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans; changes in the quality of the Company’s loan review system; changes in the value of the underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit, and changes in the level of such concentrations; the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the Company’s existing portfolio, and other trends or uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.
Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial, commercial real estate and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.
Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual residential real estate, home equity or consumer loans for impairment disclosures.

Loans Held for Sale. The Company has a mortgage division within the Bank to originate and sell residential mortgage loans in the secondary market. Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate, determined by outstanding commitments from investors or current investors yield requirements. The Company enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (rate-lock commitments). Rate-lock commitments on mortgage loans that are intended to be sold are considered to be derivatives in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, such commitments, along with any related fees received from potential borrowers, are recorded at fair value in derivative assets or liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in the net gain or loss on sale of loans held for sale. Fair value is based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, and for fixed-rate commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The effect was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009.
Loan origination fees are deferred and direct loan origination costs are capitalized until the related loan is sold, at which time the net fees are included in the net gain on sale of loans held for sale in the consolidated statements of operations.
Premises and Equipment. Land is stated at cost. Other premises, equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Interest costs are capitalized in connection with construction of new banking offices. Depreciation and amortization expense are computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of each type of asset or related lease term which includes certain renewal options.
Other Real Estate Owned. Other real estate owned represents assets acquired through foreclosure and is initially recorded at fair value less selling costs at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the real estate is carried at the lower of the new costs basis or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in operations.
Comprehensive (Loss) Income.GAAP requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net (loss) earnings. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet, such items, along with net (loss) earnings, are components of comprehensive income (loss).

Comprehensive (Loss) Income, Continued.The components of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income and related tax effects are as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | |
| | |
Net unrealized loss | | $ | (570 | ) | | | (183 | ) |
| | | | | | | | |
The reclassification adjustment above relates to gains on investment securities that were realized and included in net earnings in 2010 that also had been included in other comprehensive loss as unrealized holding gains in the period in which they arose. These gains must be deducted through other comprehensive loss of the period in which they are included in net earnings to avoid including them in comprehensive loss twice.
Transfer of Financial Assets. Transfers of financial assets or a participating interest in an entire financial asset are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. A participating interest is a portion of an entire financial asset that (1) conveys proportionate ownership rights with equal priority to each participating interest holder (2) involves no recourse (other than standard representations and warranties) to, or subordination by, any participating interest holder, and (3) does not entitle any participating interest holder to receive cash before any other participating interest holder.
Income Taxes. There are two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur. Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods.

Income Taxes, Continued. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted accounting guidance relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which sets out a consistent framework to determine the appropriate level of tax reserves to maintain for uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2010, management is not aware of any uncertain tax positions that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income taxes.
The Holding Company, North Central Florida Developers Corporation and the Bank file consolidated income tax returns. Income taxes are allocated between the Holding Company and its subsidiaries as though separate income tax returns were filed.
Stock Compensation Plan. The Company has adopted the fair value recognition method and expenses the fair value of any stock options as they vest and in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Loss Per Common Share. Loss per common share (“EPS”) has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Outstanding stock options and warrants were not considered dilutive securities for 2010 and 2009 due to the fact that there was a loss available to common shareholders.
Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments. In the ordinary course of business the Company has entered into off-balance-sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the consolidated financial statements when they are funded.

Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The hierarchy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities that are not active. Such inputs may include interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, and default rates.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs to measure fair value of assets and liabilities for which there is little, if any market activity at the measurement date, using reasonable inputs and assumptions based upon the best information at the time, to the extent that inputs are available without undue cost and effort.
The following describes valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value:
Securities Available for Sale. Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include highly liquid government bonds, certain mortgage products and exchange-traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows. Examples of such instruments, which would generally be classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, include certain collateralized mortgage and debt obligations and certain high-yield debt securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Securities classified within Level 3 include certain residual interests in securitizations and other less liquid securities.
Impaired Loans. Estimates of fair value are determined based on a variety of information, including the use of available appraisals, estimates of market value by licensed appraisers or local real estate brokers and the knowledge and experience of the Company’s management related to values of properties in the Company’s market areas. Management takes into consideration the type, location and occupancy of the property as well as current economic conditions in the area the property is located in assessing estimates of fair value. Accordingly, fair value estimates for impaired loans is classified as Level 3.

Fair Value Measurements, Continued.
Other Real Estate Owned.Estimates of fair values are determined based on a variety of information, including the use of available appraisals, estimates of market value by licensed appraisers or local real estate brokers and the knowledge and experience of the Company’s management related to values of properties in the Company’s market areas. Management takes into consideration the type, location and occupancy of the property as well as current economic conditions in the area the property is located in assessing estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the fair values estimates for other real estate owned are classified as Level 3.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments:
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Interest Bearing Time Deposits in Banks. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair value.
Securities Available for Sale. The fair value for securities available for sale are based on the framework for measuring fair value.
Loans. For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for certain fixed-rate residential mortgage, commercial real estate and commercial 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. Fair value for impaired loans are based on the framework for measuring fair value.
Loans Held for Sale. Loans held for sale, which are composed of residential first mortgage loans, are reported at the lower of cost or fair value on an aggregate loan portfolio basis. Gains or losses realized on the sales of loans held for sale are recognized at the time of sale and are determined by the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying value of the loans sold including any deferred origination fees and costs. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a market adjustment by charges to operations. Transfers of loans held for sale to the portfolio require a market value adjustment to be recognized in operations if the fair market value is less than the carrying value at the date of transfer.
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. Fair value of the Company’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock is based on its redemption value, which is its cost of $100 per share.
Deposits. The fair values disclosed for demand, NOW, money-market and savings deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on time deposits to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities of time deposits.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments, Continued.
Other Borrowings.The carrying amounts of other borrowings approximates their fair value.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances.Fair value of the advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowings.
Accrued Interest. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.
Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments. Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.
Recent Pronouncements.In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06,Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820), which amends the guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures. The guidance in ASU 2010-06 requires a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers. Furthermore, ASU 2010-06 requires a reporting entity to present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs; clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value; and amends guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets to require that disclosures be provided by classes of assets instead of by major categories of assets. The ASU was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures were effective January 1, 2011 and for interim periods thereafter. In the period of initial adoption, entities will not be required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for comparative purposes. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20,Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The new disclosures will require significantly more information about credit quality in a financial institution’s loan portfolio. This statement addresses only disclosures and does not change recognition or measurement of the allowance. For public entities, the disclosures as of the end of a reporting period was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on December 31, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications. Certain amounts in the 2009 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2010 presentation.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

The unrealized losses on twenty-three securities available for sale were caused by market conditions. It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the par value of the investments. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in market conditions and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.
At December 31, 2010 and 2009, securities with a carrying value of approximately $10.5 million and $18.2 million, respectively, were pledged for other borrowings and public funds.

The Company grants the majority of its loans to borrowers throughout Alachua and Marion Counties, Florida. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a significant portion of its borrowers’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon the economy in Alachua and Marion Counties, Florida. The Company does have eight acquisition and development loans, generally with original terms of three years or less, aggregating $9.5 million at December 31, 2010 and nine acquisition and development loans aggregating $12.8 million at December 31, 2009, for which the primary source of repayment is the sale of the related collateral or the conversion of the existing debt into debt at another financial institution. The majority of these loans are located in Alachua County.

With the uncertain real estate market in Alachua and Marion Counties, in the short-term, obtaining refinancing or sale of the collateral may be difficult or impossible under terms acceptable to the borrower. It is likely many of these loans will be extended and may be modified to provide additional interest only periods.

Internally assigned loan grades are defined as follows:
Pass – A Pass loan’s primary source of loan repayment is satisfactory, with secondary sources very likely to be realized if necessary.
Special Mention – A Special Mention loan has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special Mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Substandard – A Substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful – A loan classified Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified Substandard with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loss – A loan classified Loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

(9) Income Taxes, Continued
At December 31, 2010, the Company has approximately $5.4 million of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income. These carryforwards will begin to expire in 2025.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the State of Florida. The Company is no longer subject to the U.S. federal or state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007.
(10) Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments are commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in these financial instruments.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These letters of credit are primarily issued to support third-party borrowing arrangements and generally have expiration dates within one year of issuance. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. At December 31, 2010, the Company held collateral supporting substantially all of these commitments and management does not anticipate any potential losses if these letters of credit are funded.

(11) Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company grants the majority of its loans to borrowers throughout the northeast Florida area, including Marion and Alachua counties. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a significant portion of its borrowers’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon the economy of this area. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.
(12) Stock Option Plan
The Company adopted a stock option plan for its employees and directors (the “Plan”). Fifteen percent of the total amount of shares outstanding, up to 450,000 shares (currently 397,981 shares), have been reserved under the Plan. Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options granted to directors vest immediately and for employees, the options primarily vest over two years starting with the date of grant and ending on the second anniversary thereof. At December 31, 2010, 128,262 options remain available for granting. A summary of stock option transactions under the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 follows:

(12) Stock Option Plan, Continued
No options have been granted during 2010. The fair value of each option granted in 2009 were estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
| | | | |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 1.46 | % |
Dividend yield | | | — | % |
Expected stock volatility | | | 10.00 | % |
Expected life in years | | | 5.50 | |
Per share grant-date fair value of options issued during the year | | $ | 1.29 | |
| | | | |
The Company examined its historical pattern of option exercises in an effort to determine if there were any pattern based on certain employee populations. From this analysis, the Company could not identify any patterns in the exercise of options. As such, the Company used the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission to determine the estimated life of options. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of similar size financial institutions. 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. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payments.
There were no options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. At December 31, 2010 there was approximately $1,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of one month. The total fair value of shares vesting and recognized as compensation expense was approximately $13,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and $67,000 in 2009. There was no associated income tax benefit recognized in 2010 or 2009.
(13) Employee Benefit Plan
The Company has a 401(k) profit sharing plan available to all employees electing to participate after meeting certain length-of-service requirements. The Company contributed $83,000 to the plan in 2010, and $83,000 in 2009.

(15) Stockholders’ Equity and Dividend Restrictions
On January 23, 2009, the U.S. Treasury Department (the “Treasury”) purchased $6.5 million of the Company’s senior preferred stock as part of the US Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program. While the preferred shares are outstanding, the Company will pay the Treasury a five percent dividend on the senior preferred shares for the first five years following the investment, and a nine percent dividend thereafter. The Treasury also received warrants to purchase an additional $325,700 of the Company’s senior preferred stock at an exercise price of $0.01. The Treasury exercised these warrants on January 23, 2009. The senior preferred shares issued upon exercise of the warrants pay dividends at an annual rate of nine percent. While the senior preferred shares are outstanding, the Company must comply with restrictions on executive compensation and limitations on dividends and stock repurchases. The Company can repay the Treasury under the conditions established in the purchase agreements, and the Treasury can sell their investment to third parties.
The Company is limited in the amount of dividends it may pay by the amount of dividends the Bank may pay to the Holding Company. The Bank is limited in the amount of cash dividends that may be paid by Florida law. The amount of cash dividends that may be paid is based on the Bank’s net earnings of the current year combined with the Bank’s retained earnings of the preceding two years, as defined by state banking regulations. However, for any dividend declaration, the Bank must consider additional factors such as the amount of current period net earnings, liquidity, asset quality, capital adequacy and economic conditions. It is likely that these factors would further limit the amount of dividends which the Bank could declare. In addition, bank regulators have the authority to prohibit banks from paying dividends if they deem such payment to be an unsafe or unsound practice.

(16) Regulatory Matters
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and percents (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2010, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of December 31, 2010, the Bank is categorized as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage percents as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. The Bank’s actual capital amounts and percents are also presented in the table ($ in thousands):
