	The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Talmer Bancorp, Inc. (“the Company”), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements, primarily consisting of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or for any other interim period. Certain items in prior periods were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Annual Report of Talmer Bancorp, Inc. on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
	On February 11, 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 registering the shares of the Company’s common stock as “TLMR” on the Nasdaq Capital Market.  On February 14, 2014, the Company completed the initial public offering of 15,555,555 shares of Class A common stock for $13 per share.  Of the 15,555,555 shares sold, 3,703,703 shares were sold by the Company and 11,851,852 shares were sold by certain selling shareholders.  In addition, on February 21, 2014, the selling shareholders sold an additional 2,333,333 shares of Class A common stock to cover the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option.  The Company received net proceeds of approximately $42.0 million from the offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.  The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholders.
	On July 18, 2014, Talmer West Bank sold its single branch office in Albuquerque, New Mexico along with its $34.1 million of deposits and $23.7 million of loans to Grants State Bank, a unit of First Bancorp of Durango, Inc. The net impact to pre-tax income related to this transaction recorded in the third quarter of 2014 is a $1.6 million benefit, representing the gain on the sale of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, partially offset by the write-off of related cored deposit intangible of $91 thousand and other costs associated with the transaction of approximately $170 thousand.  The benefit of $1.6 million is recorded in “Net gain on sale of branches” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
	On August 8, 2014 we sold our 10 branch offices located in Wisconsin to Town Bank, a wholly owned bank subsidiary of Wintrust Financial Corporation.  Town Bank assumed all of our deposits in Wisconsin totaling $354.8 million as of August 8, 2014.  Concurrent with the closing of this transaction, Town Bank will sell two of the branch locations and related deposits in Kenosha and Genoa City, Wisconsin to its affiliate, State Bank of the Lakes, a Wintrust community bank.  The net impact to pre-tax income related to this transaction recorded in the third quarter of 2014 is a $12.8 million benefit, representing the gain on the sale of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, partially offset by the write-off of the related core deposit intangible of $911 thousand and other costs associated with the transaction of approximately $248 thousand.  The benefit of $12.8 million is recorded in “Net gain on sale of branches” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
	In August of 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire First of Huron Corporation, the holding company for Signature Bank headquartered in Bad Axe, Michigan, for aggregate cash consideration of $13.4 million.  Signature Bank had total assets of $233.5 million as of September 30, 2014, including $172.9 million of net total loans.  The Company will acquire and simultaneously retire certain outstanding subordinated debentures of First of Huron Corporation and assume its trust preferred securities.  The closing of the transaction is pending regulatory approval and customary closing conditions, including the approval by the shareholders of First of Huron Corporation.  The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2015.

	In the first quarter of 2014, the Company began entering into interest rate derivatives to provide a service to certain qualifying customers to help facilitate their respective risk management strategies (“customer-initiated derivatives”).  Therefore, these derivatives are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s assets or liabilities. The Company generally takes offsetting positions with dealer counterparties to mitigate the valuation risk of the customer-initiated derivatives.  Income primarily results from the spread between the customer derivatives and the offsetting dealer positions. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e. gains or losses) of a derivative instrument is determined by whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further by the type of hedging relationship.  The Company presents derivative instruments at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets on a net basis when a right of offset exists, based on transactions with a single counterparty and any cash collateral paid to and/or received from that counterparty for derivative contracts that are subject to legally enforceable master netting arrangements.  The Company has no derivatives designated as qualifying accounting hedging instruments.  For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss derived from changes in fair value are recognized in current earnings during the period of change.
	Earnings Per Share
	On June 10, 2014, the Company awarded restricted stock to certain employees and directors of the Company which qualify as participating securities. As such, beginning in June of 2014, the Company applies the two-class method of computing earnings per share.  Under this calculation, all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain right to nonforfeitable dividends are considered participating securities and earnings per share is determined according to dividends declared, when applicable, and participating rights in undistributed earnings.
	Basic earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Distributed and undistributed earnings are allocated between common and participating security shareholders based on their respective rights and then are divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options and warrants.
	Deferred Compensation Plan
	As of June 26, 2014 the Company maintains a deferred compensation plan to certain key employees and members of the Board of Directors which allows participants to defer a portion of their compensation.  Participants have the ability to begin deferrals into the Deferred Compensation Plan beginning July 1, 2014.  While the Company maintains ownership of the deferred compensation asset, the participants are able to direct the investment of the assets into a pre-determined selection of investment options.  Company stock is not an investment option for the participants.  The assets are recorded at fair value in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  A liability is established, in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, for the fair value of the obligation to the participants.  Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the deferred compensation plan assets is recorded in “Other noninterest income” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.  Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the deferred compensation obligation to participants is recorded as additional compensation expense or a reduction of compensation expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
	Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards
	In January of 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-04, “Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure” (“ASU 2014-04”), which clarifies the time at which a creditor is considered to have physical possession of residential real estate that is collateral for a residential mortgage loan.  The creditor is considered to have physical possession when legal title to the collateral or a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement is completed.  Consequently it should reclassify the loan to other real estate owned at that time.  ASU 2014-04 is effective for public companies for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014, as such, the Company will adopt ASU 2014-04 as of January 1, 2015.  Under the provisions, the Company will have the option to adopt the amendments in the ASU using either a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method.  The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-04.
	In April of 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”), which raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation.  The ASU is intended to reduce the frequency of disposals reported as discontinued operations by focusing on strategic shifts that have or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results and will permit companies to have continuing cash flows and significant continuing involvement with the disposed component.  ASU 2014-08 is effective for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) and acquired businesses or nonprofit activities that  are classified as held for sale upon acquisition that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years.  As such, the Company will evaluate the provisions of ASU 2014-08 as it relates to any potential disposals or acquisitions beginning on or after January 1, 2015.
	In May of 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including revenue recognition guidance.  The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU is intended to clarify and converge the revenue recognition principles under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards and to streamline revenue recognition requirements in addition to expanding required revenue recognition disclosures.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for public companies for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2016.  As such, the Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 as of January 1, 2017.  Under the provision, the Company will have the option to adopt the guidance using either a full retrospective method or a modified transition approach.  The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-09.
	In June of 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, “Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures” (“ASU 2014-11”), which amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 860 to require entities to account for repurchase-to-maturity transactions as secured borrowings, eliminate accounting guidance on linked repurchase financing transactions and expand disclosure requirements related to certain transfers of financial assets that are accounted for as sales and certain transfers accounted for as secured borrowings.  The disclosure requirements related to transactions accounted for as a sale and all of the accounting guidance within ASU 2014-11are effective for public companies for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and require the new guidance to be applied by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.  The disclosure requirements related to repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings within ASU 2014-11 are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015.  As such, the Company will adopt the accounting guidance under ASU 2014-11 as of January 1, 2015.  The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-11.
	In August of 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-14, “Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure” (“ASU 2014-14”), which addresses foreclosed mortgage loans that are fully or partially guaranteed under government programs to reduce diversity in practice of classification.  The update requires that upon foreclosure, a mortgage loan be derecognized and a separate other receivable be recognized if the loan has an inseparable guarantee before foreclosure, if the creditor has the intent to transfer the property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee to recover under the claim, and if at foreclosure the claim determined is fixed, on the basis of fair value.  ASU 2014-14 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014.  As such, the Company will adopt the accounting guidance under ASU 2014-14 as of January 1, 2015.  Under the provision, the Company will have the option to adopt the guidance using either a prospective transition method or a modified retrospective transition method.  The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-14.
	In August of 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”), which requires entity management to perform interim and annual assessments of their ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and requires disclosure if substantial doubt is raised.  Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued. The disclosure requirements in ASU 2014-15 closely align with those under current auditing literature.  Should substantial doubt be raised but alleviated as a result of management’s plans, the entity should disclose a statement that addresses the principal condition, management’s evaluation, and management’s plan which relieved such doubt.  If the substantial doubt is raised but not alleviated, the entity should disclose the principal condition, management’s evaluation, and management’s plan that are intended to mitigate such conditions.  ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early application permitted.  The Company has elected to adopt the provisions of ASU 2014-15 effective for the interim period ending September 30, 2014.  The adoption had no effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operation or disclosures.

	2.  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
	The Company has determined that the acquisitions of Talmer West Bank (formerly known as Michigan Commerce Bank) and First Place Bank constitute business combinations as defined by the FASB ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.”  Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values on the date of acquisition, as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. In many cases the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change.
	On January 1, 2014, the Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of Financial Commerce Corporation’s wholly-owned subsidiary banks, Michigan Commerce Bank, a Michigan state-chartered bank, Indiana Community Bank, an Indiana state-chartered bank, Bank of Las Vegas, a Nevada state-chartered bank and Sunrise Bank of Albuquerque, a New Mexico state-chartered bank, and certain other bank-related assets from Financial Commerce Corporation and its parent holding company, Capitol Bancorp Ltd., in a transaction facilitated under Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, for cash consideration of $4.0 million and a separate $2.5 million payment to fund an escrow account to pay the post-petition administrative fees and expenses of the professionals in the bankruptcy cases of Financial Commerce Corporation and Capital Bancorp, Ltd., each of which filed voluntary bankruptcy petitions under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on August 9, 2012, with any unused escrowed funds to be refunded to the Company.
	Immediately prior to consummation of the acquisition, Capitol Bancorp Ltd. merged Indiana Community Bank, Bank of Las Vegas and Sunrise Bank of Albuquerque with and into Michigan Commerce Bank, with Michigan Commerce Bank as the surviving bank in the merger.  Simultaneously with the merger, Michigan Commerce Bank changed its name to Talmer West Bank.  The Company contributed $99.5 million of additional capital during the three months ended March 31, 2014 to Talmer West Bank in order to recapitalize the bank.  In order to support the acquisition and recapitalization of Talmer West Bank, the Company borrowed $35.0 million under a senior unsecured line of credit. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the initial public offering that closed on February 14, 2014 to repay the $35.0 million during the first quarter of 2014.  For the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company did not incur any acquisition expenses related to Talmer West Bank.  The Company incurred $1.8 million of acquisition related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, related to the acquisition of Talmer West Bank, included within “Bank acquisition and due diligence fees” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  Twelve of the branches acquired, or 70% of the total number of branches acquired in the acquisition, fit squarely within the Company’s target market areas.
	The assets and liabilities associated with the acquisition of Talmer West Bank were recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at estimated fair value as of the acquisition date.  The following allocation is based on the information that was available to make preliminary estimates of the fair value and may change as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are completed.  While the Company believes that information provided a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values, it expects that it could obtain additional information and evidence during the measurement period that may result in changes to the estimated fair value amounts. This measurement period ends on the earlier of one year after the acquisition date or the date we receive the information about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. Subsequent adjustments are, and if necessary, will be retrospectively reflected in future filings. These refinements include: (1) changes in the estimated fair value of loans acquired and changes in the determination on whether such loans are considered purchased credit impaired; (2) changes in the estimated fair value of certain  premises and equipment acquired; (3) changes in deferred tax assets related to fair value estimates and a change in the expected realization of items considered to be built in losses and (4) a change in the bargain purchase gain caused by the net effect of these adjustments.

	Fair value of net identifiable assets acquired	48,477
	Bargain purchase gain resulting from acquisition	$	41,977
	The estimated fair values presented in the above table reflect additional information that the Company obtained following the acquisition of Talmer West Bank, which resulted in changes to certain fair value estimates made as of the acquisition date within the measurement period.  Material adjustments to the acquisition date estimated fair values are recorded in the period in which the acquisition occurred and, as a result, previously reported amounts changed.  The estimated fair value of the deferred tax assets included within “other assets”   and presented above, increased $1.8 million resulting in a net increase to the bargain purchase gain resulting from acquisition of $1.8 million to $42.0 million, which is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  The increase in the fair value of the deferred tax asset resulted from the finalization of the 2013 tax returns in the third quarter of 2014 when it was discovered that the consolidated net operating losses as of December 31, 2013 for Capital Bancorp, Ltd. were larger than expected by $10.8 million.  This change was primarily due to information that was provided by the FDIC related to seized banks that were part of the consolidated tax return of which Michigan Commerce Bank was a member.  Because these seized banks had larger than expected net operating losses, they received a larger allocation of cancellation of debt income that reduced the allocation of cancellation of debt income to Michigan Commerce Bank, which is now Talmer West Bank.  The resulting net operating losses attributable to Michigan Commerce Bank at acquisition increased by $5.2 million compared to previous estimates.  This adjustment increased the estimated fair value of the deferred tax asset by $1.8 million as of January 1, 2014, compared to previously reported levels.
	The Talmer West Bank acquisition resulted in a pre-tax bargain purchase gain of $42.0 million as the estimated fair value of assets acquired exceeded the estimated fair value of liabilities assumed and consideration paid.  The gain was included within “Bargain purchase gain” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
	Loans acquired in the Talmer West Bank acquisition were initially recorded at fair value with no separate allowance for loan losses.  The Company reviewed the loans at acquisition to determine which should be considered purchased credit impaired loans (i.e. loans accounted for under FASB ASC Subtopic 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality” (“ASC 310-30”)) defining impaired loans as those that were either not accruing interest or exhibited credit risk factors consistent with nonperforming loans at the acquisition date.
	Fair values for purchased loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers various factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of the loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates.  Larger purchased loans are individually evaluated while smaller purchased loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and were treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques.
	The Company accounts for purchased credit impaired loans in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-30.  The cash flows expected to be collected on purchased loans are estimated based upon the expected remaining life of the underlying loans, which includes the effects of estimated prepayments.  Purchased loans are considered credit impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration at the date of purchase and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected.  Interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows is recognized on the acquired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30.
	Purchased loans outside the scope of ASC 310-30 are accounted for under FASB ASC Subtopic 310-20, “Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs” (“ASC 310-20”).  Premiums and discounts created when the loans were recorded at their fair values at acquisition are amortized over the remaining terms of the loans as an adjustment to the related loan’s yield.

(FPFC) including all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of First Place Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FPFC, headquartered in Warren, Ohio, in a transaction facilitated under Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, for cash consideration of $45.0 million.  Under the provisions of the asset purchase agreement, the Company assumed $60.0 million in subordinated notes issued to First Place Capital Trust, First Place Capital Trust II, and First Place Capital III, of which $45.0 million was immediately retired.  Following the acquisition, the Company contributed $179.0 million of additional capital in order to recapitalize First Place Bank with commitments to contribute additional capital if needed.  The Company incurred $171 thousand and $7.9 million of acquisition related expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 primarily related to the acquisition of First Place Bank included within “Bank acquisition and due diligence fees” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  First Place Bank was consolidated with and into Talmer Bank and Trust on February 10, 2014.

FAIR VALUE	'
FAIR VALUE	'
	3.  FAIR VALUE
	The fair value framework as detailed by FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement” requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into a three-level hierarchy based on the markets in which the financial instruments are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. A brief description of each level follows.
	Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets.
	Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; or model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
	Level 3 — Valuation is measured through utilization of model-based techniques that rely on at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. Any necessary unobservable assumptions used reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.
	Fair value estimates are based on existing financial instruments and, in accordance with GAAP, do not attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business or the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. In addition, tax ramifications related to the recognition of unrealized gains and losses, such as those within the investment securities portfolio, can have a significant effect on estimated fair values and, in accordance with GAAP, have not been considered in the estimates. For these reasons, the aggregate fair value should not be considered an indication of the value of the Company.
	Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and key inputs used to measure financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, as well as a description of the methods and any significant assumptions used to estimate fair value disclosures for financial assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value in their entirety on a recurring basis. For financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, the description includes the level of the fair value hierarchy in which the assets for liabilities are classified. Transfers of asset or liabilities between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period, when applicable.
	Cash and cash equivalents: Due to the short-term nature, the carrying amount of these assets approximates the estimated fair value.  The Company classifies cash and due from banks as Level 1 and interest-bearing deposits with other banks and federal funds and other short-term investments as Level 2.
	Securities available-for-sale:  Investment securities classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available or the market is deemed to be inactive at the measurement date, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar investment securities. Third-party vendors compile prices from various sources and may apply such techniques as matrix pricing to determine the value of identical or similar investment securities. Management reviews the methodologies and assumptions used by the third-party pricing services and evaluates the values provided, principally by comparison with other available market quotes for similar instruments and/or analysis based on internal models using available third-party market data.  Level 1 securities include equity securities traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange.  Level 2 securities include obligations issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, state and municipal obligations, mortgage-backed securities issued by both U.S. government-sponsored enterprises and non-agency enterprises securities, corporate debt securities, Small Business Administration Pools and privately issued commercial mortgage-backed securities that have active markets at the measurement date. The fair value of Level 2 securities was determined using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or pricing models based on observable market data inputs, primarily interest rates, spreads and prepayment information.
	Securities classified as Level 3, including an obligation of a political subdivision and a trust preferred security (included within “Corporate debt securities”) as of September 30, 2014, represent securities in less liquid markets requiring significant management assumptions when determining fair value. The fair values of these investment securities represent less than one percent of the total available-for-sale securities.  The Troubled Asset Relief Program preferred securities and the trust preferred security fair values are compiled by a third-party vendor through consideration of recent trades and/or auctions of comparable securities, where applicable and are presented without adjustment.  Comparable securities consider credit, structure, tenor, trade flows and cash flow characteristics.  Due to the limited sales of these types of securities, significant unobservable assumptions are included to determine comparable securities to be included in the analysis.  The fair value of the political subdivision obligation is determined using a discounted cash flow model prepared internally which includes a significant unobservable input related to the credit assumption of the security.  Since the purchase of this security, no credit related concerns have come to the Company’s attention, therefore no adjustment for credit loss assumptions were made.
	Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Stock: Restricted equity securities are not readily marketable and are recorded at cost and evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of initial cost. No significant observable market data is available for these instruments. The Company considers the profitability and asset quality of the issuer, dividend payment history and recent redemption experience, when determining the ultimate recoverability of cost.  The Company believes its investments in FHLB stock are ultimately recoverable at cost.
	Loans held for sale:  Loans held for sale are carried at fair value based on the Company’s election of the fair value option. These loans currently consist of one-to-four family residential real estate loans originated for sale to qualified third parties. The fair value is determined based on quoted market rates and other market conditions considered relevant. The Company classifies loans held for sale as recurring Level 2.
	Loans measured at fair value:  During the normal course of business, loans originated with the initial intention to sell but are not ultimately sold, are transferred from held for sale to our portfolio of loans held for investment at fair value as the Company adopted the fair value option at origination.  The fair value of these loans is estimated using discounted cash flows, taking into consideration current market interest rates, loan repricing characteristics and expected loan prepayment speeds, while also taking into consideration other significant unobservable inputs such as the payment history and credit quality characteristic of each individual loan and an illiquidity discount reflecting the relative illiquidity of the market. Due to the adjustments made relating to unobservable inputs, the Company classifies the loans transferred from loans held for sale as recurring Level 3.
	Loans:  The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than those discussed in “Loans measured at fair value” above. However, periodically, the Company records nonrecurring adjustments to the carrying value of loans based on fair value measurements. Loans, outside the scope of ASC 310-30, are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreements. Impaired loans, which include all nonaccrual loans and troubled debt restructurings, are disclosed as nonrecurring fair value measurements when an allowance is established based on the fair value of the underlying collateral.  Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans are prepared by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties). These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. The comparable sales approach evaluates the sales price of similar properties in the same market area.  This approach is inherently subjective due to the wide range of comparable sale dates. The income approach considers net operating income generated by the property and the investor’s required return.  This approach utilizes various inputs including lease rates and cap rates which are subject to judgment. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to account for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. These adjustments generally range from 0% to 40% depending on the property type, as well as various sales and property characteristics including but not limited to: date of sale, size and condition of facility, quality of construction and proximity to the subject property. Once received, management reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics to determine if additional downward adjustments should be made.  Property values are typically adjusted when management is aware of circumstances, economic changes or other conditions, since the date of the appraisal that would impact the expected selling price. Such adjustments are usually significant and result in a nonrecurring Level 3 classification.
	Estimated fair values for loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. Cash flows expected to be collected on these loans are estimated based upon the expected remaining life of the underlying loans, which includes the effects of estimated prepayments. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 as Level 3.
	For loans excluded from ASC 310-30 accounting that are not individually evaluated for impairment, fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow model. The cash flows take into consideration current portfolio interest rates and repricing characteristics as well as assumptions relating to prepayment speeds. The discount rates take into consideration the current market interest rate environment, a credit risk component based on the credit characteristics of each loan portfolio, and a liquidity premium reflecting the liquidity or illiquidity of the market. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of non-collateral dependent loans excluded from ASC 310-30 accounting as Level 3.
	Premises and equipment:  Premises and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows.  Impaired premises and equipment at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were recorded at fair value based on a recent appraisal through a valuation allowance.  The Company classifies impaired premises and equipment as nonrecurring Level 2.
	FDIC indemnification asset: The fair value of the FDIC indemnification asset is estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss sharing agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss sharing percentages. The Company re-estimates the expected indemnification asset cash flows in conjunction with the quarterly re-estimation of cash flows on covered loans accounted for under ASC 310-30. The expected cash flows are discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing and receipt of the loss sharing reimbursement from the FDIC.  These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be subject to significant change.  The estimates used in calculating the value of the FDIC indemnification asset are reflective of the estimates utilized to determine the estimated fair value of loans accounted for under ASC 310-30. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of the FDIC indemnification asset as Level 3.
	Other real estate owned: Other real estate owned represents property acquired by the Company as part of an acquisition, through the loan foreclosure or repossession process, or any other resolution activity that results in partial or total satisfaction of problem covered loans, or by closing of branches or operating facilities. Properties are initially recorded at fair value, less estimated costs to sell, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequently, the assets are valued at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs to sell, based on periodic valuations performed. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised value or management’s estimate of the value, using a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. The comparable sales approach evaluates the sales price of similar properties in the same market area.  This approach is inherently subjective due to the wide range of comparable sale dates. The income approach considers net operating income generated by the property and the investor’s required return.  This approach utilizes various inputs including lease rates and cap rates which are subject to judgment. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to account for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. These adjustments generally range from 0% to 40% depending on the property type, as well as various sales and property characteristics including but not limited to: date of sale, size and condition of facility, quality of construction and proximity to the subject property.  Adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification.
	Loan servicing rights: Loan servicing rights are accounted for under the fair value measurement method.  A third party valuation model is used to determine the fair value at the end of each reporting period utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis using interest rates and prepayment speed assumptions currently quoted for comparable instruments and a discount rate determined by management.  Changes in fair value of loan servicing rights are recorded in “Mortgage banking and other loan fees”.  Because of the nature of the valuation inputs, the company classifies loan servicing rights as Level 3.  Refer to Note 10, “Loan Servicing Rights”, for assumptions included in the valuation of loan servicing rights.
	FDIC receivable: The FDIC receivable represents claims submitted to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) for reimbursement for which the Company expects to receive payment within 90 days. Due to their short term nature, the carrying amount of these instruments approximates the estimated fair value. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of FDIC receivable as Level 2.
	Company-owned life insurance and deferred compensation plan liabilities: The Company holds life insurance policies on certain officers, both for investment purposes and for the Company’s deferred compensation plan. The carrying value of these policies approximates fair value as it is based on the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or amounts due that are probable at settlement. As such, the Company classifies the estimated fair value of Company-owned life insurance as Level 2.  Deferred compensation plan liabilities represent the fair value of the obligation to the employee, which corresponds to the fair value of the invested assets.  Deferred compensation plan liabilities are recorded with “other liabilities” and are classified by the Company as Level 2.
	Derivative instruments: The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments with prospective borrowers to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors, which are carried at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of these commitments is based on the fair value of related mortgage loans determined using observable market data.  Interest rate lock commitments are adjusted for expectations of exercise and funding.  This adjustment is not considered to be a material input.  The Company classifies derivatives as recurring Level 2.
	Derivative instruments held or issued for customer-initiated activities are traded in over-the counter markets where quoted market prices are not readily available.  Fair value for over-the-counter derivative instruments is measured on a recurring basis using third party models that use primarily market observable inputs, such as yield curves and option volatilities.  The fair value for these derivatives may include a credit valuation adjustment that is determined by applying a credit spread for the counterparty or the Company, as appropriate, to the total expected exposure of the derivative after considering collateral and other master netting arrangements.  These adjustments, which are considered Level 3 inputs, are based on estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default.  The Company assesses the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and at September 30, 2014 it was determined that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives.  As a result, the company classifies its over-the-counter derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
	Accrued interest receivable and payable: Due to their short term nature, the carrying amount of these instruments approximates the estimated fair value; therefore, the Company classifies the estimated fair value of accrued interest receivable and payable as Level 2.
	Deposits: The estimated fair value of demand deposits (e.g., noninterest and interest-bearing demand, savings, other brokered funds and certain types of money market accounts) is, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for certificates of deposit are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows at current interest rates. The estimated fair value of deposits does not take into account the value of the Company’s long-term relationships with depositors, commonly known as core deposit intangibles, which are not considered financial instruments.  The Company classifies the estimated fair value of deposits as Level 2.
	Clawback liability: The CF Bancorp, First Banking Center and Peoples State Bank loss sharing agreements contain a provision where if losses do not exceed a calculated threshold, the Company is obligated to compensate the FDIC.  The carrying amount of these instruments approximates the estimated fair value.  The estimated fair value requires management’s assumption of what estimated losses will be, which is a significant component.  As such, the Company classifies the estimated fair value of the FDIC clawback liability as Level 3.
	Short-term borrowings: Short-term borrowings represent federal funds purchased, a senior unsecured line of credit and certain short-term FHLB advances. Due to their short term nature, the carrying amount of these instruments approximates the estimated fair value. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of short-term borrowings as Level 2.
	Long-term debt: Long-term debt includes securities sold under agreements to repurchase, FHLB advances and subordinated notes related to trust preferred securities.  The estimated fair value is based on current rates for similar financing or market quotes to settle those liabilities.  The Company classifies the estimated fair value of long-term debt as Level 2.
	FDIC warrants payable: FDIC warrants payable represent stock warrants that were issued to the FDIC in connection with the 2010 FDIC-assisted acquisition of CF Bancorp. These warrants are recorded at net present value based on management estimates used in a discounted pricing model. The inputs into the pricing model include management’s assumption of an annualized growth rate.  The carrying amount of these instruments approximates the estimated fair value.  The Company classifies the estimated fair value of FDIC warrants payable as Level 3.

(1) The balance transferred includes $31 thousand of cumulative adjustment related to the change in accounting policy referenced in Note 1 to our audited financial statements included in our 2013 Annual Report.
The aggregate fair value, contractual balance (including accrued interest), and gain or loss position for loans held for investment measured and recorded at fair value was as follows:
(Dollars in thousands)	September 30, 2014			December 31, 2013
Aggregate fair value	$	17,881		$	17,708
Contractual balance	17,816			18,022
Fair market value gain (loss)	65			(314		)
There were no gains (losses) included in the fair value above that were associated with instrument specific credit risk. The aggregate fair value and contractual principal balance of loans held for investment measured and recorded at fair value that were 90 days or more past due as of September 30, 2014 was $155 thousand and $191 thousand, respectively.  Of the aggregate fair value of loans that were 90 days or more past due as of September 30, 2014, $155 thousand were on nonaccrual status.  The aggregate fair value and contractual principal balance of loans held for investment measured and recorded at fair value that were 90 days or more past due as of December 31, 2013 was $293 thousand and $301 thousand, respectively. Of the aggregate fair value of loans that were 90 days or more past due as of December 31, 2013, $252 thousand were on nonaccrual status.
Interest income is recorded based on the contractual terms of the loans in accordance with the Company’s policy on loans held for investment and is recorded in “Interest and fees on loans” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, there was $164 thousand and $423 thousand, respectively, of interest income earned on loans transferred from loans held for sale to loans held for investment.
The Company has elected the fair value option for loans held for sale.  These loans are intended for sale and the Company believes that the fair value is the best indicator of the resolution of these loans. Interest income is recorded based on the contractual terms of the loans in accordance with the Company policy on loans held for investment in “Interest and fees on loans” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. None of these loans are 90 days past due or on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
The aggregate fair value, contractual balance (including accrued interest), and gain or loss for loans held for sale carried at fair value was as follows:

(1)     Specific reserves of $2.8 million and $1.4 million were provided to reduce the fair value of these loans at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral.  In addition, charge-offs of $633 thousand and $36 thousand reduced the fair value of these loans in for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1.3 million and $441 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
(2)     The Company charged $1.4 million and $155 thousand through other non-interest expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $2.9 million and $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reduce the fair value of these properties.
(3)     The Company charged $701 thousand and $2.0 million through other noninterest expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1.6 million and $4.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reduce the fair value of these properties.  These expenses were partially offset by FDIC loss sharing income recorded due to the associated loss share coverage.
(4)     The Company charged $185 thousand and $109 thousand through other noninterest expenses during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reduce the value of premises and equipment deemed impaired during the period.
The Company typically holds the majority of its financial instruments until maturity and thus does not expect to realize many of the estimated fair value amounts disclosed.  The disclosures also do not include estimated fair value amounts for items that are not defined as financial instruments, but which have significant value.  These include such items as core deposit intangibles, the future earnings potential of significant customer relationships and the value of fee generating businesses.  The Company believes the imprecision of an estimate could be significant.
The following tables present the carrying amount and estimated fair values of financial instruments not recorded at fair value in their entirety on a recurring basis on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 335 securities, 121 of which were in an unrealized loss position. The unrealized losses for these securities resulted primarily from changes in interest rates. The Company expects full collection of the carrying amount of these securities and does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position nor does it believe it will be required to sell securities in an unrealized loss position before the value is recovered.  The Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2014.
The unrealized losses are spread across asset classes, primarily in those securities carrying fixed interest rates. At September 30, 2014, the combination of these security asset class holdings in an unrealized loss position had an estimated fair value of $364.4 million with gross unrealized losses of $3.5 million. Unrealized losses in these security holdings were mainly impacted by increases in benchmark U.S. Treasury rates and, to a lesser extent, widened liquidity spreads since their respective acquisition dates.

LOANS

LOANS	'

	5.                    LOANS
	Residential real estate loans represent loans to consumers for the purchase or refinance of a residence. These loans are generally financed over a 15- to 30-year term, and in most cases, are extended to borrowers to finance their primary residence with both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate terms. The majority of these loans originated by the Company conform to secondary market underwriting standards and are sold within a short timeframe to unaffiliated third parties. As such, the credit underwriting standards adhere to the underwriting standards and documentation requirements established by the respective investor or correspondent bank.  Residential real estate loans also include home equity loans and lines of credit that are secured by a first or second lien on the borrower’s residence.  Home equity lines of credit consist mainly of revolving lines of credit secured by residential real estate.  Home equity lines of credit are generally governed by the same lending policies and subject to the same credit risk as described previously for residential real estate loans.
	Commercial real estate loans consist of term loans secured by a mortgage lien on the real property such as apartment buildings, office and industrial buildings, retail shopping centers, and farmland. The credit underwriting for both owner-occupied and non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans includes detailed market analysis, historical and projected cash flow analysis, appropriate equity margins, assessment of lessees and lessors, type of real estate and other analysis. Risk of loss is managed by adherence to standard loan policies that establish certain levels of performance prior to the extension of a loan to the borrower. Geographic diversification, as well as diversification across industries, are other means by which the risk of loss is managed by the Company.
	Commercial and industrial loans include financing for commercial purposes in various lines of business, including manufacturing, agricultural, service industry and professional service areas.  The Company works with businesses to meet their short-term working capital needs while also providing long-term financing for their business plans. Credit risk is managed through standardized loan policies, established and authorized credit limits, centralized portfolio management and the diversification of market area and industries. The overall strength of the borrower is evaluated through the credit underwriting process and includes a variety of analytical activities including the review of historical and projected cash flows, historical financial performance, financial strength of the principals and guarantors, and collateral values, where applicable. Commercial and industrial loans are generally secured with the assets of the company and/or the personal guarantee of the business owners.
	Real estate construction loans are term loans to individuals, companies or developers used for the construction of a commercial or residential property for which repayment will be generated by the sale or permanent financing of the property.  Generally, these loans are for construction projects that have been either presold, preleased, or have secured permanent financing, as well as loans to real estate companies with significant equity invested in the project.
	Consumer loans include loans made to individuals not secured by real estate, including loans secured by automobiles or watercraft, and personal unsecured loans. Risk elements in the consumer loan portfolio are primarily focused on the borrower’s cash flow and credit history, key indicators of the ability to repay and borrower credit scores. A certain level of security is provided through liens on automobile or watercraft titles, where applicable. Economic conditions that affect consumers in the Company’s markets have a direct impact on the credit quality of these loans. Higher levels of unemployment, lower levels of income growth and weaker economic growth are factors that may adversely impact consumer loan credit quality.

	Nonperforming Assets and Past Due Loans
	Nonperforming assets consist of loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued, other real estate owned acquired through acquisitions and other real estate owned obtained through foreclosure.
	Loans are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement or any portion thereof remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment. Loans outside of those accounted for under ASC 310-30 are classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, collection of principal or interest is doubtful. The accrual of interest income is discontinued when a loan is placed in nonaccrual status and any payments received reduce the carrying value of the loan. A loan may be placed back on accrual status if all contractual payments have been received and collection of future principal and interest payments are no longer doubtful. Loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 are classified as performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any nonpayment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the quarterly re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period provision for loan losses or future yield adjustments.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
The Company assesses all loan modifications to determine whether a modification constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). For loans excluded from ASC 310-30 accounting, a modification is considered a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company grants a concession to the borrower.  For loans accounted for individually under ASC 310-30, a modification is considered a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the effective yield after the modification is less than the effective yield at the time the loan was acquired in association with consideration of qualitative factors included within ASC 310-40.  All TDRs are considered impaired loans.  The nature and extent of impairment of TDRs, including those which have experienced a subsequent default, is considered in the determination of an appropriate level of charge off and/or allowance for loan losses.
As of September 30, 2014, there were $14.2 million of nonperforming TDRs and $25.6 million of performing TDRs included in impaired loans.  As of December 31, 2013, there were $17.9 million of nonperforming TDRs and $24.5 million of performing TDRs included in impaired loans.  All TDRs are considered impaired loans in the calendar year of their restructuring.  In subsequent years, a restructured obligation modified at a market rate and compliant with its modified terms for a minimum period of six months is no longer reported as a TDR. A loan that has been modified at a rate other than market will return to performing status if it satisfies the six month performance requirement; however, it will continue to be reported as a TDR and considered impaired.

(1) Loan forgiveness related to loans modified in TDRs for the was $25 thousand for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
(2) The provision for loan losses for covered loans is partially offset by the build of an associated FDIC indemnification asset on covered loans.
When a modification qualifies as a TDR and was initially individually accounted for under ASC 310-30, the loan is required to be moved from ASC 310-30 accounting and accounted for under ASC 310-40.  In order to accomplish the transfer of the accounting for the TDR from ASC 310-30 to ASC 310-40, the loan is essentially retained in the ASC 310-30 accounting model and subject to the quarterly cash flow re-estimation process. Similar to loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, deterioration in expected cash flows result in the recognition of allowance for loan losses. However, unlike loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, improvements in estimated cash flows on these loans result only in recapturing previously recognized allowance for loan losses and the yield remains at the last yield recognized under ASC 310-30.
On an ongoing basis, the Company monitors the performance of TDRs to their modified terms. The following table presents the number of loans modified in TDRs during the previous 12 months for which there was payment default during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, including the recorded investment as of September 30, 2014 and 2013.  A payment on a TDR is considered to be in default once it is greater than 30 days past due.

At September 30, 2014, commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose terms have been modified in TDRs totaled $943 thousand.
The terms of certain other loans that were modified during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2014 and 2013 that did not meet the definition of a TDR generally involved a modification of the terms of a loan to borrowers who were not deemed to be experiencing financial difficulties or a loan accounted for under ASC 310-30 that did not result in a lower effective yield than at the date of acquisition after the modification in association with consideration of qualitative factors included within ASC 310-40. The evaluation of whether or not a borrower is deemed to be experiencing financial difficulty is completed during loan committee meetings at the time of the loan approval.
Credit Quality Indicators
Credit risk monitoring and management is a continuous process to manage the quality of the loan portfolio.
The Company categorizes commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and real estate construction loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt including, current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation and current economic trends, among other factors.  The risk rating system is used as a tool to analyze and monitor loan portfolio quality.  Risk ratings meeting an internally specified exposure threshold are updated annually, or more frequently upon the occurrence of a circumstance that affects the credit risk of the loan.  The following describes each risk category:
Pass:  Includes all loans without weaknesses or potential weaknesses identified in the categories of special mention, substandard or doubtful.
Special Mention:  Loans with potential credit weakness or credit deficiency, which, if not corrected, pose an unwarranted financial risk that could weaken the loan by adversely impacting the future repayment ability of the borrower.
Substandard:  Loans with a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, such as loans to borrowers who may be experiencing losses from operations or inadequate liquidity of a degree and duration that jeopardizes the orderly repayment of the loan.  Substandard loans also are distinguished by the distinct possibility of loss in the future if these weaknesses are not corrected.
Doubtful:  Loans with all the characteristics of a loan classified as Substandard, with the added characteristic that credit weaknesses make collection in full highly questionable and improbable.
Commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and real estate construction loans by credit risk category were as follows:

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES	'
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES	'
	6.  ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
	The allowance for loan losses represents management’s assessment of probable, incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses consists of specific allowances, based on individual evaluation of certain loans, and allowances for homogeneous pools of loans with similar risk characteristics. Management’s evaluation in establishing the adequacy of the allowance includes evaluation of actual past loan loss experience, probable incurred losses in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect a specific borrower’s ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, economic conditions, and other pertinent factors, such as periodic internal and external evaluations of delinquent, nonaccrual, and classified loans. The evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires utilizing material estimates. The evaluation of these factors is the responsibility of certain senior officers from the credit administration, finance, and lending areas.
	The Company established an allowance for loan losses associated with purchased credit impaired loans (accounted for under ASC 310-30) based on credit deterioration subsequent to the acquisition date. The Company re-estimates cash flows expected to be collected for purchased credit impaired loans on a quarterly basis, with any decline in expected cash flows recorded as provision for loan losses on a discounted basis during the period. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, the Company first reverses any previously recorded allowance for loan loss, then adjusts the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan’s remaining life.
	For loans not accounted for under ASC 310-30, the Company individually assesses for impairment all commercial real estate, commercial and industrial and real estate construction nonaccrual loans and TDRs greater than $250,000.  For residential real estate loans and consumer loans, the Company assesses all loans for impairment if on nonaccrual status or if the loan is a TDR.

	7.  ACQUIRED LOANS AND LOSS SHARE ACCOUNTING
	A significant amount of loans acquired in the CF Bancorp and First Banking Center acquisitions during the year 2010 and the Peoples State Bank and Community Central Bank acquisitions during the year 2011 are covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, whereby the FDIC generally reimburses the Bank for the 80% of losses incurred.  The CF Bancorp, First Banking Center and Peoples State Bank loss share agreements also include provisions where a clawback payment, calculated using formulas included within the contracts, is to be made to the FDIC 10 years and 45 days following the acquisition in the event actual losses fail to reach stated levels.  The estimated FDIC clawback liability totaled $25.7 million ($21.5 million related to the CF Bancorp acquisition and $4.2 million related to the First Banking Center acquisition) at September 30, 2014 compared to $24.9 million ($21.0 million related to the CF Bancorp acquisition and $3.9 million related to the First Banking Center acquisition) at December 31, 2013.  No clawback liability was recorded in relation to Peoples State Bank as of both September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
	Acquired loans were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date, which includes loans acquired in each FDIC-assisted acquisition and in the First Place Bank and Talmer West Bank acquisitions.  At the acquisition date, where a loan exhibits evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect all principal and interest payments in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement, the Company accounts for the loan under ASC 310-30 and recognizes the expected shortfall of expected future cash flows, as compared to the contractual amount due, as a nonaccretable discount. Any excess of the net present value of expected future cash flows over the acquisition date fair value is recognized as the accretable discount, or accretable yield.  We recognize accretion of the accretable discount as interest income over the expected remaining life of the purchased loan.  Fair value discounts/premiums created on acquired loans accounted for outside the scope of ASC 310-30 are accounted for under ASC 310-20 and are accreted/amortized into interest income over the remaining term of the loan as an adjustment to the related loans yield.
	Changes in the carrying amount of accretable discount for purchased loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 were as follows:

	(1) Primarily includes changes in the accretable discount due to loan payoffs, foreclosures and charge-offs.
	For loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, the Company remeasures expected cash flows on a quarterly basis.  For loans where the remeasurement process results in a decline in expected cash flows, impairment is recorded.  As a result of this impairment, the indemnification asset is increased to reflect anticipated future cash to be received from the FDIC.  Alternatively, when a loan’s remeasurement results in an increase in expected cash flows, the effective yield of the related loan is increased through an addition to the accretable discount.  As a result of the improved cash flows, the indemnification asset is first reduced by the writing off of any indemnification asset related to impairment previously recorded with any remaining indemnification asset accreting off over the shorter of the expected term of the loan or the remaining life of the related loss-sharing agreement.
	The total identified improvement in the cash flow expectations resulting in yield adjustments on a prospective basis during the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 for both covered and uncovered purchased credit impaired loans was $32.0 million and $24.4 million, respectively.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the total identified improvement in the cash flow expectations resulting in yield adjustments on a prospective basis was $72.9 million and $64.9 million, respectively.  The Company also identified declines in the cash flow expectations of certain loans.  A decline in the present value of current expected cash flows compared to the previously estimated expected cash flows, due in any part to change in credit, is referred to as credit impairment and recorded as provision for loan losses during the period.  Declines in the present value of expected cash flows only from the expected timing of such cash flows is referred to as timing impairment and recognized prospectively as a decrease in yield on the loan.
	Below is the composition of the recorded investment for loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

	Loan servicing rights are created as a result of the Company’s mortgage banking origination activities, the purchase of mortgage servicing rights, the origination and purchase of agricultural servicing rights and the origination and purchase of commercial real estate servicing rights.  Loans serviced for others are not reported as assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	The Company elected as of January 1, 2013 to account for all loan servicing rights under the fair value method.  This change in accounting policy resulted in a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2013 in the amount of $31 thousand.  For further information on this election, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report.  The following table represents the activity for loan servicing rights and the related fair value changes.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS	'
	11.  DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
	In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various transactions involving derivative instruments to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and to meet the financing needs of customers (customer initiated derivatives).  These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of market and credit risk.  Market and credit risk are included in in the determination of fair value.
	Commitments to fund mortgage loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors are considered derivatives. It is the Company’s practice to enter into forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans when interest rate lock commitments are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates resulting from its commitments to fund the loans.
	The Company additionally enters into interest rate derivatives to provide a service to certain qualifying customers to help facilitate their respective risk management strategies, customer-initiated derivatives, and, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s assets or liabilities. The Company generally takes offsetting positions with dealer counterparts to mitigate the inherent risk.  Income primarily results from the spread between the customer derivative and the offsetting dealer positions.
	The Company has no derivatives designated as qualifying accounting hedging instruments.
	The following table reflects the amount and fair value of mortgage banking and customer-initiated derivatives.  Fair values of customer-initiated derivative instruments represent the net unrealized gains or losses on such contracts and are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in fair value are recorded as a component of “Other noninterest income” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

	12.  COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES
	Commitments
	In the normal course of business, the Company offers a variety of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include outstanding commitments to extend credit, credit lines, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit.
	The Company’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument, is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. The credit policies used in making commitments and conditional obligations are the same as those used for on-balance sheet instruments.
	Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer provided there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many commitments expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on an individual 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. The collateral held varies, but may include securities, real estate, inventory, plant, or equipment. Unfunded commitments under commercial lines of credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are included in commitments to extend credit. These lines of credit are generally uncollateralized, usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may be drawn upon only to the total extent to which the Company is committed.
	Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The Company’s portfolio of standby letters of credit consists primarily of performance assurances made on behalf of customers who have a contractual commitment to produce or deliver goods or services. The risk to the Company arises from its obligation to make payment in the event of the customers’ contractual default to produce the contracted good or service to a third party.
	The allowance for credit losses on lending-related commitments included $498 thousand and $1.0 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, for probable credit losses inherent in the Company’s unused commitments and was recorded in “Other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	A summary of the contractual amounts of the Company’s exposure to off-balance sheet risk is as follows:
		September 30, 2014						December 31, 2013
	(Dollars in thousands)	Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Total		Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Total
	Commitments to extend credit	$	591,410	$	542,898	$	1,134,308	$	523,666	$	216,473	$	740,139
	Standby letters of credit	69,169		4,037		73,206		68,452		561		69,013
	Total commitments	$	660,579	$	546,935	$	1,207,514	$	592,118	$	217,034	$	809,152
	Contingencies and Guarantees
	The Company has originated and sold certain loans for which the buyer has limited recourse to us in the event the loans do not perform as specified in the agreements.  These loans had an outstanding balance of $65.3 million and $79.5 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments that we could be required to make in the event of nonperformance by the borrower totaled $33.4 million and $42.9 million, at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  In the event of nonperformance, we have rights to the underlying collateral securing the loans.  As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had recorded a liability of $275 thousand and $567 thousand, respectively, in connection with the recourse agreements, recorded in “Other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	We issue standby letters of credit for commercial customers to third parties to guarantee the performance of those customers to the third parties.  If the customer fails to perform, we perform in their place and record the funds advanced as an interest-bearing loan.  These letters of credit are underwritten using the same policies and criteria applied to commercial loans.  Therefore, they represent the same risk to us as a loan to that commercial loan customer.  At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our standby letters of credit totaled $73.2 million and $69.0 million, respectively.
	Representations and Warranties
	In connection with our mortgage banking loan sales, we make certain representations and warranties that the loans meet certain criteria, such as collateral type and underwriting standards.  We may be required to repurchase individual loans and/or indemnify the purchaser against losses if the loan fails to meet established criteria.  At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our liability recorded in connection with these representations and warranties totaled $4.0 million and $4.8 million, respectively.
	Legal Proceedings
	The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to various pending or threatened legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business. Some of these claims are against entities or assets of which the Company has acquired in business acquisitions, and certain of these claims, or future claims, will be covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC.
	The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. While the ultimate liability with respect to these litigation matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, in the opinion of management, any liabilities arising from pending legal proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.

	On January 1, 2014, the Company acquired Talmer West Bank and recorded $60.4 million in deferred tax assets at acquisition.  Upon acquisition, Talmer West Bank incurred an ownership change within the meaning of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.  As such, the Company’s ability to benefit from the use of Talmer West Bank’s pre-ownership change net operating loss carry forwards, as well as the deductibility of certain of its built-in losses if realized during a five-year recognition period (one year with respect to bad debt deductions), will be limited to approximately $3.0 million per year, putting at risk the utilization of associated deferred tax assets before they expire.  No valuation allowance was established against the deferred tax assets associated with Talmer West Bank’s pre-change losses based on management’s estimate of the amount and timing of built-in losses more likely than not to be realized over the Section 382 recognition period, and the impact on the Company’s utilization of pre-ownership change net operating loss carry forwards.  In determining its estimate of built-in losses more likely than not to be realized within the Section 382 recognition period, management focused primarily on tax losses embedded in Talmer West Bank’s loan portfolio and other real estate owned. To a lesser extent management focused on tax losses embedded in fixed assets, investments in partnerships and certain accrued expenses, and anticipated when these losses might create actual tax deductions, either through bad debt deductions, depreciation, amortization, payment, or disposition of the assets in question.
	At January 1, 2014, Talmer West Bank had an estimated $28.7 million in gross federal loss carry forwards expiring in 2032 and 2033.  The exact amount of pre-ownership change carry forwards cannot be determined until the finalization of Capitol Bancorp, Ltd.’s consolidated tax return (Talmer West Bank’s former parent) for the year ended December 31, 2014, at which time final allocations will be made from that return to the entity acquired by the Company.
	The valuation allowance of $10.1 million against the Company’s deferred tax asset at December 31, 2013 was related to Section 382 ownership changes incurred by First Place Bank, upon its acquisition by the Company on January 1, 2013. The allowance was based on management’s calculation of the annual Section 382 limitation and its estimate of the amount and timing of built-in losses more likely than not to be realized over the Section 382 recognition period, and the impact on the Company’s utilization of pre-ownership change operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.
	At December 31, 2013, the Company, including First Place Bank and its related acquired affiliates, had the following loss and tax credit carry forwards:  $28.8 million in gross federal loss carry forwards, $856 thousand in tax credits expiring between 2027 and 2032, and $3.8 million in federal alternative minimum tax credits with an indefinite life. At December 31, 2013, the Company estimated the use of $24.8 million in estimated gross federal loss carry forwards and $856 thousand in tax credits related to First Place Bank and its acquired affiliates, expiring between 2027 and 2032 would be limited to $1.7 million annually due to an ownership change, within the meaning of Section 382 incurred at January 1, 2013.  In the second quarter of 2014, the Company, with the assistance of a legal and tax accounting external experts, reached a conclusion regarding the calculation of the annual Section 382 limitation related to the ownership change of First Place Bank which resulted in an increase of the annual Section 382 limitation from $1.7 million to $6.6 million.  This increase eliminated the need for a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets acquired in the First Place Bank acquisition.
	The use of $3.7 million of gross federal loss carry forwards, expiring between 2027 and 2029, is limited to $145 thousand annually due to a Section 382 ownership change incurred in November 2009. The carrying value was previously reduced to reflect that $1.4 million will expire unused. Upon the completion of the Company’s 2010 Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audit, it was determined that there was an additional $323 thousand of net operating losses available from its Lakeshore acquisition, expiring in 2030.
Outside of the Section 382-limited deferred tax assets acquired in both the Talmer West Bank and First Place Bank acquisitions, management concluded that no valuation allowance was necessary on the remainder of the Company’s net deferred tax assets at either September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.  This determination was based on the Company’s history of pre-tax and taxable income over the prior three years, as well as management’s expectations for sustainable profitability in the future.  Management monitors deferred tax assets quarterly for changes affecting realizability and the valuation allowance could be adjusted in future periods.
Actual outcomes could vary from the Company’s current estimates, resulting in future increases or decreases in the valuation allowance and corresponding future tax expense or benefit.
At September 30, 2014, Talmer Bank and Trust had approximately $36.0 million of bad debt reserve in equity for which no provision for federal income taxes was recorded. This amount represents First Place Bank’s qualifying thrift bad debt reserve at December 31, 1987, which is only required to be recaptured into taxable income if certain events occur. At September 30, 2014, the potential tax on the above amount was approximately $13.0 million. The Company does not intend to take any action that would result in a recapture of any portion of its bad debt reserve.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into certain transactions that have tax consequences.  From time to time, the IRS and state taxing authorities may review and/or challenge specific interpretive tax positions taken by the Company with respect to those transactions.  The Company believes that its tax returns, as well as First Place Bank and Talmer West Bank’s tax returns for periods prior to the acquisitions, were filed based upon applicable statutes, regulations and case law in effect at the time of the transactions.  The IRS, various state and other jurisdictions, if presented with the transactions, could disagree with the Company’s interpretation of the tax law.
First Place Bank had received notice that the IRS had denied refund claims in amended tax returns filed by First Place Bank on a consolidated basis with its former parent company, First Place Financial Corp., for fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005.  The Company disagrees with the IRS position and is working with First Place Financial Corp. to appeal the examination-level decision.  Though not anticipated, an adverse result on appeal could impact the $11.7 million refund receivable recorded by the Company upon acquisition of First Place Bank.  In the second quarter of 2014, the IRS commenced an examination of the consolidated federal tax returns of First Place Bank’s former parent for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, 2011, which returns included First Place Bank through January 1, 2013.  The results of this examination concluded with no changes.  First Place Bank’s federal tax return for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 is currently subject to potential examination as well.  There are several years of returns that are still open to examination by various taxing authorities for Talmer West Bank.
During the first quarter 2014, the Company closed an examination by the IRS of Talmer Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries’ federal returns for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, with no significant tax changes. The Company’s federal tax return for the years ended December 31, 2012 to present are open to potential examination.  The Company’s most significant states of operation, Michigan and Ohio, do not impose income-based taxes on financial institutions. The Company and/or its subsidiaries are subject to minor amounts of income tax in various other states, with varying years open to potential examination.  The Company is not aware of any pending income tax examinations by any state jurisdiction.
The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2014 or 2013 and does not expect to record unrecognized tax benefits of any significance during the next twelve months.  The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense, when applicable.  There are no liabilities accrued for interest or penalties at September 30, 2014 or 2013.

	15.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
	The Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), along with amendments made to the Plan, limits the number of shares issued or issuable to employees, directors and certain consultants at 9.8 million shares of common stock.
	Stock Options
	Options are granted with an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant.  The vesting and terms of option awards are determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company granted 35 thousand and 3.6 million stock options, respectively, that were fully vested upon issuance and will expire 10 years after the grant date.  As of September 30, 2014, 1.6 million option shares were available to be granted.
	The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below.  Given the relatively short history of Company stock being publicly traded during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, post our public offering in February of 2014, and minimal trading in the Company’s stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, it was not practicable for the Company to estimate volatility of its share price.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 the Company used the average volatility of comparable public Bank holding companies as an input to the valuation model.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 the Company used the volatility of an appropriate industry index (the ABA NASDAQ Community Bank Index) as an input in the valuation model. Since limited historical data is available, the expected term of options granted was estimated to be six years for both the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 based on expected lives used by a sample of other Midwest banks.  The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant corresponding with the expected life of the options. All shares granted are expected to vest and the Company intends to issue already authorized shares to satisfy options upon exercise.
	The fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of the grant date.
		For the nine months ended September 30,

	(1) Options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 had a weighted average fair value of $13.74, at respective exercise dates.  In the nine months ended September 30, 2014, there were 163 thousand shares issued under the net-settlement option.  Total cash received from option exercises during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $143 thousand resulting in the issuance of 25 thousand shares.
	The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  There were no option exercises during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
	Total compensation expense for stock options, included in “Salary and employee benefits” in the Consolidated Statements of Income, was $42 thousand and $245 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $429 thousand and $9.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	A summary of changes in the Company’s nonvested shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 follows:
	Nonvested Shares	Shares		Weighted-Average
		(in thousands)		Grant-Date Fair Value
	Nonvested at January 1, 2014	348		$	2.24
	Granted	35
	Vested	310
	Forfeited	2
	Nonvested at September 30, 2014	71		$	2.21
	As of September 30, 2014, there was $32 thousand of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under the Plan.  The cost is expected to be recognized during the year ended December 31, 2014.
	Restricted Stock Awards
	Under the Plan, the Company can grant restricted stock awards that vest upon completion of future service requirements or specified performance criteria.  The fair value of these awards is equal to the market price of the common stock at the date of grant.  The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for these awards over the vesting period, using the straight-line method, based upon the number of shares of restricted stock ultimately expected to vest.  Restricted stock awards granted in June of 2014 vest in their entirety following a five year service period for employees and over a one year service period for directors.  Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.  If an individual awarded restricted stock awards terminates employment prior to the end of the vesting period, the unvested portion of the stock award is forfeited.
	The following table provides information regarding nonvested restricted stock awards:
	Nonvested Restricted Stock Awards	Shares		Weighted-Average
		(in thousands)		Grant-Date Fair Value
	Nonvested at January 1, 2014	—
	Granted	377,800		14.44
	Nonvested at September 30, 2014	377,800		$	14.44
	Total expense for restricted stock awards totaled $302 thousand for the three months of September 30, 2014, of which $227 thousand was included in “Salary and employee benefits” related to employees and $75 thousand was included in “Professional fees” related to directors in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, total expense for restricted stock awards totaled $369 thousand, of which $277 thousand was included in “Salary and employee benefits” related to employees and $92 thousand was included in “Professional fees” related to directors in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  There were no restricted stock awards outstanding prior to June of 2014.  As of September 30, 2014, the total compensation costs related to nonvested restricted stock that has not yet been recognized totaled $5.1 million and the weighted-average period over which these costs are expected to be recognized is 4.5 years.

REGULATORY CAPITAL MATTERS	'
REGULATORY CAPITAL MATTERS	'
	16. REGULATORY CAPITAL MATTERS
	Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. Management believes as of September 30, 2014, the Company and its subsidiary banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
	Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required.
	Talmer Bank and Trust was required to maintain Tier 1 common equity to total assets ratio of at least 10% under the FDIC’s Statement of Policy on Qualifications for Failed Bank Acquisitions for a period of three years following the Company’s most recent failed bank acquisition, and thereafter must maintain a capital level sufficient to be well capitalized under regulatory standards during the remaining period of ownership of the investors covered by the FDIC’s Statement of Policy. Talmer Bank and Trust’s last failed bank acquisition closed on April 29, 2011 and, therefore, remained subject to the heightened capital requirement through April 29, 2014.  At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized Talmer Bank and Trust as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.
	The capital ratios of Talmer West Bank at September 30, 2014 exceed the total capital (to risk-weighted assets) ratio of at least 12.0% and a Tier 1 capital (to adjusted total assets) ratio of at least 9.0% as prescribed in the Consent Order by the FDIC and the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services on April 5, 2010.  Notwithstanding its capital levels, Talmer West Bank will not be categorized as well capitalized while it is subject to the Consent Order.
	Consent Order
	On April 5, 2010, Michigan Commerce Bank consented to the issuance of the Consent Order by the FDIC and the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services, which remains in effect following our acquisition of Talmer West Bank, as the surviving bank in the merger, on January 1, 2014.  The Consent Order represents an agreement to take certain actions, including, among other things: assessing and retaining qualified management; achieving and maintaining specified capital ratios; reducing certain classified assets, including the charge-off of loans classified ‘‘loss;’’ reviewing the allowance for loan and lease losses policy; implementing a comprehensive profit plan and budget; implementing a plan to manage concentrations of credit; and revising the bank’s policies governing interest rate risk.
	The Consent Order also prohibits Talmer West Bank, without prior regulatory approval, from paying dividends, retaining new directors or senior executive officers, or entering into any material transaction.
	Cease and Desist Order
	On July 13, 2011, First Place Bank consented to a Cease and Desist Order which replaced the separate supervisory agreement entered into with the OTS on March 1, 2011. The Cease and Desist Order represents an agreement to take certain actions, including the submission of capital and business plans to, among other things, preserve and enhance the capital of First Place Bank and strengthen and improve its earnings and profitability.  On January 28, 2014, the FDIC approved the consolidation of First Place Bank with and into Talmer Bank and Trust.  Effective February 10, 2014, First Place Bank was merged with Talmer Bank and Trust and the Cease and Desist Order has no further force or effect.

	The Company’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from its subsidiary banks. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Talmer Bank and Trust cannot declare or pay a cash dividend or dividend in kind unless Talmer Bank and Trust will have a surplus amounting to not less than 20% of its capital after payment of the dividend.  In addition, Talmer Bank and Trust may pay dividends only out of net income then on hand, after deducting its losses and bad debts.  Further, Talmer Bank and Trust may not declare or pay a dividend until cumulative dividends on preferred stock, if any, are paid in full.  These limitations can affect Talmer Bank and Trust’s ability to pay dividends.
	Under FDIC regulations, limitations are imposed on all of Talmer West Bank’s capital distributions, including cash dividends.  As of September 30, 2014, Talmer West Bank was not able to pay any dividends without prior regulatory approval.
	On November 4, 2014, a cash dividend on the Company’s Class A common stock of $0.01 per share was declared.  The dividend will be paid on November 28, 2014, to the Company’s Class A common shareholders of record as of November 17, 2014.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE	'
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE	'
	18.  EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
	The two-class method is used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.  Under the two-class method, earnings available to common shareholders for the period are allocated between common shareholders and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participating rights in undistributed earnings.  Common shares outstanding include common stock and vested restricted stock awards, when applicable.  On June 10, 2014 the Company awarded restricted stock to certain employees and directors of the Company which qualify as participating securities.  The factors used in the earnings per share computation follow:

	(1) Net income allocated to common shareholders for basic and diluted earnings per share may differ under the two-class method as a result of adding common share equivalents for options and warrants to dilutive shares outstanding, which alters the ratio used to allocate net income to common shareholders and participating securities for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share.
	For the effect of dilutive securities, the average stock valuation is $14.08 per share and assumed to be $10.00 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and the assumed average stock valuation is $13.52 per share and $10.00 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 respectively.
	The following average shares related to outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted net income available to common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 respectively, because they were antidilutive.  There were no outstanding antidilutive warrants during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
