Under the Company’s loan risk rating system, loans are classified as “Pass,” with problem and potential problem loans as “Special Mention,” “Substandard,” “Doubtful” and “Loss”. Individual loan risk ratings are updated continuously or at any time the situation warrants. In addition, management regularly reviews problem loans to determine whether any loan requires a classification change, in accordance with the Company’s policy and applicable regulations. The grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or at all. The internal loan classification risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans. The Company’s internally assigned grades are as follows: • Pass – loans which are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral. There are several different levels of Pass rated credits, including “Watch” which is considered a transitory grade for pass rated loans that require greater monitoring. Loans not meeting the criteria of special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss that have been analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans. • Special Mention – loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected. Special Mention loans do not currently expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant classification as a Substandard, Doubtful or Loss classification, but possess weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. • Substandard – loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and can be characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. • Doubtful – loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. • Loss – loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as an asset is not warranted.

Generally, these loans are rated substandard or worse. Most impaired loans are classified as nonaccrual. However, there are some loans that are designated impaired due to doubt regarding collectability according to contractual terms, but are both fully secured by collateral and are current in their interest and principal payments. These impaired loans that are not classified as nonaccrual continue to pay as agreed. Impaired loans are measured for allowance requirements based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The amount of an impairment allowance, if any and any subsequent changes are charged against the allowance for loan loss. In certain cases, portions of impaired loans are charged-off to the fair value of the loan instead of establishing a valuation allowance and are included, when applicable, in the table below as impaired loans “with no specific allowance recorded.” The valuation allowance disclosed below is included in the allowance for loan loss reported in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The following tables present, by loan portfolio segment, the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances for impaired loans with the associated allowance amount, if applicable, for the dates and periods indicated (dollars in thousands). This table excludes purchased credit impaired loans (loans acquired in acquisitions with deteriorated credit quality) of $1.7 million and $2.0 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Loans are restructured in an effort to maximize collections. Economic concessions can include: reductions to the stated interest rate, payment extensions, principal forgiveness or other actions. The modification process includes evaluation of impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate of the original loan agreement, except when the sole (remaining) source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the loan collateral. In these cases, management uses the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, to evaluate the loan for impairment. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs and unamortized premium or discount) impairment is recognized through a specific allowance or a charge-off. The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances for troubled debt restructured loans at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands). These tables include TDR loans that were purchased credit impaired (“PCI”). TDR loans that are non-PCI loans are included in the Impaired Loans tables above. As of September 30, 2016, there were two PCI loans that are considered to be TDR loans with a recorded investment of $115 thousand and unpaid principal balances of $287 thousand.

Loans are restructured in an effort to maximize collections. Impairment analyses are performed on the Company’s troubled debt restructured loans in conjunction with the normal allowance for loan loss process. The Company’s troubled debt restructured loans are analyzed to ensure adequate cash flow or collateral supports the outstanding loan balance. There were no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings at September 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015. Loans Acquired Through Acquisition The following table reflects the accretable net discount for acquired loans for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Balance, beginning of period $ 11,928 $ 18,255 $ 14,610 $ 21,402 Accretion, included in interest income (1,229 ) (1,463 ) (3,879 ) (4,140 ) Reclassifications to non-accretable yield — (5 ) (32 ) (475 ) Balance, end of period $ 10,699 $ 16,787 $ 10,699 $ 16,787 The above table reflects the fair value adjustment on the loans acquired from mergers that will be amortized to loan interest income based on the effective yield method over the remaining life of the loans. These amounts do not include the fair value adjustments on the purchased credit impaired loans acquired from mergers. Purchased Credit Impaired Loans PCI loans are acquired loans with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and it is probable at the acquisition date, that the Company will not be able to collect all contractually required amounts. When the timing and/or amounts of expected cash flows on such loans are not reasonably estimable, no interest is accreted and the loan is reported as a non-accrual loan; otherwise, if the timing and amounts of expected cash flows for PCI loans are reasonably estimable, then interest is accreted and the loans are reported as accruing loans. The non-accretable difference represents the difference between the undiscounted contractual cash flows and the undiscounted expected cash flows, and also reflects the estimated credit losses in the acquired loan portfolio at the acquisition date and can fluctuate due to changes in expected cash flows during the life of the PCI loans. The following table reflects the outstanding balance and related carrying value of PCI loans as of the dates indicated (dollars in thousands): September 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Unpaid Principal Carrying Value Unpaid Principal Carrying Value Commercial and Industrial $ 639 $ 314 $ 2,331 $ 477 Commercial and Other Real Estate 2,007 1,402 2,250 1,535 Other — — 61 — Total $ 2,646 $ 1,716 $ 4,642 $ 2,012 The following table reflects the activities in the accretable net discount for PCI loans for the period indicated (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Balance, beginning of period $ 205 $ 286 $ 246 $ 324 Accretion, included in interest income (22 ) (20 ) (63 ) (58 ) Reclassifications from non-accretable yield — — — — Balance, end of period $ 183 $ 266 $ 183 $ 266 |
