BANCORPSOUTH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of BancorpSouth, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and follow general practices within the industries in which the Company operates. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included and all such adjustments were of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain 2009 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2010 presentation.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, BancorpSouth Bank (the “Bank”), Risk Advantage, Inc. and Gumtree Wholesale Insurance Brokers, Inc., and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Century Credit Life Insurance Company, Personal Finance Corporation of Tennessee, BancorpSouth Insurance Services, Inc., BancorpSouth Investment Services, Inc. and BancorpSouth Municipal Development Corporation.

NOTE 2 – LOANS AND LEASES

The composition of the loan and lease portfolio by collateral type as of the dates indicated was as follows:

	September 30,				December 31,
	2010		2009		2009
	(In thousands)
Commercial and industrial	$	1,453,365	$	1,457,985	$	1,514,419
Real estate
Consumer mortgages		2,001,077		2,046,433		2,017,067
Home equity		552,095		540,875		550,085
Agricultural		262,083		254,647		262,069
Commercial and industrial-owner occupied		1,375,466		1,432,859		1,449,554
Construction, acquisition and development		1,307,242		1,533,622		1,459,503
Commercial		1,810,626		1,770,066		1,806,766
Credit cards		102,672		103,208		108,086
All other		692,336		663,540		655,437
Total	$	9,556,962	$	9,803,235	$	9,822,986

The Company does not have any loan concentrations, other than those reflected in the preceding table, which exceed 10% of total loans.

A substantial portion of construction, acquisition and development loans are secured by real estate in markets in which the Company is located. These loans are often structured with interest reserves to fund interest costs during the construction and development period. Additionally, certain of these loans are structured with interest-only terms. A portion of the consumer mortgage and commercial real estate portfolios originated through the permanent financing of construction, acquisition and development loans. The prolonged economic downturn has negatively impacted many borrowers’ and guarantors’ ability to make payments under the terms of the loans as their liquidity

6

has been depleted. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of these loans and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of other real estate owned are susceptible to changes in real estate values in these areas. Continued economic distress could negatively impact additional borrowers’ and guarantors’ ability to repay their debt which will make more of the Company’s loans collateral dependent.

Non-performing loans and leases (“NPLs”) consist of non-accrual loans and leases, loans and leases 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and loans and leases that have been restructured because of the borrower’s weakened financial condition. The following table presents information concerning NPLs as of the dates indicated:

	September 30,				December 31,
	2010		2009		2009
	(In thousands)
Non-accrual loans and leases	$	347,181	$	82,732	$	144,013
Loans and leases 90 days or more past due, still accruing		9,910		20,699		36,301
Restructured loans and leases still accruing		52,325		8,205		6,161
Total non-performing loans	$	409,416	$	111,636	$	186,475

The Bank’s policy provides that loans and leases are generally placed in non-accrual status if, in management’s opinion, payment in full of principal or interest is not expected or payment of principal or interest is more than 90 days past due, unless the loan or lease is both well-secured and in the process of collection. At September 30, 2010, the Company’s geographic NPL distribution was concentrated primarily in its Alabama and Tennessee markets, including the greater Memphis, Tennessee area, a portion of which is in northwest Mississippi.

Loans considered impaired under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310, Receivables (“FASB ASC 310”) are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement and include troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). The Company’s recorded investment in loans considered impaired at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $242.2 million and $128.5 million, respectively. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, $135.8 million and $73.2 million of those impaired loans had a valuation allowance of $43.6 million and $22.7 million, respectively. The remaining balance of impaired loans of $106.4 million and $55.3 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, have been charged down to fair value, less estimated selling costs which would approximate net realizable value, therefore, they do not have an associated valuation allowance. Impaired loans that were characterized as TDRs totaled $55.1 million and $72.6 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

At September 30, 2010, other real estate owned which had been acquired, usually through foreclosure, from borrowers totaled $82.6 million compared to $59.3 million at December 31, 2009. The Company incurred total foreclosed property expenses of $4.9 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company incurred total foreclosed property expenses of $12.3 million and $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Realized net losses on dispositions and holding losses on valuations of these properties, a component of total foreclosed property expenses, were $4.1 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and were $10.0 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Based upon a review of the credit quality of these securities, and considering that the issuers were in compliance with the terms of the securities, management had no intent to sell these securities, and it was more likely than not that the Company would not be required to sell the securities prior to recovery of costs. Therefore, the impairments related to these securities were determined to be temporary. During the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, approximately $236,000 and $1.5 million, respectively, were recorded as other-than-temporary impairments related to investments in pooled trust preferred securities.

NOTE 5 – PER SHARE DATA

The computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the shares resulting from the assumed exercise of all outstanding share-based awards using the treasury stock method. Weighted-average antidilutive stock options for 2.5 million and 2.2 million shares of Company common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $22.75 and $23.54 per share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, were excluded from diluted shares. Weighted-average antidilutive stock options for 1.8 million shares of Company common stock with

10

a weighted average exercise price of $23.75 per share for both the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, were excluded from diluted shares. Antidilutive other equity awards of approximately 41,000 and 14,000 shares of Company common stock for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, were also excluded from diluted shares. There were no antidilutive other equity awards for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the periods shown:

Goodwill recorded during the period		—		—		—
Balance as of September 30, 2010	$	217,618	$	52,479	$	270,097

The Company’s policy is to assess goodwill for impairment at the reporting segment level on an annual basis or sooner if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Accounting standards require management to estimate the fair value of each reporting segment in assessing impairment at least annually. The Company’s annual assessment date is during the Company’s fourth quarter. Because of the volatile market conditions during which the Company’s market value fell below book value, the Company performed a complete goodwill impairment analysis for all of its reporting

12

segments during the third quarter of 2010. Based on this analysis, the estimated fair value of all of the Company’s reporting segments exceeded the respective carrying values. Therefore, no goodwill impairment was recorded.

In the current environment, forecasting cash flows, credit losses and growth in addition to valuing the Company’s assets with any degree of assurance is very difficult and subject to significant changes over very short periods of time. Management will continue to update its analysis as circumstances change. As market conditions continue to be volatile and unpredictable, impairment of goodwill related to the Company’s reporting units may be necessary in future periods.

The following tables present information regarding the components of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets for the dates and periods indicated:

NOTE 9 – RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard regarding accounting for transfers of financial assets. This new accounting standard eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity’s continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. This new accounting standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this new accounting standard regarding accounting for transfers of financial assets has had no material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

In June 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard regarding consolidation of variable interest entities. This new accounting standard amends existing accounting literature regarding consolidation of variable interest entities to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. This new accounting standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this new accounting standard regarding consolidation of variable interest entities has had no material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

In July 2010, the FASB issued a new accounting standard regarding disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. This new accounting standard amends existing accounting literature regarding disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses to provide additional information to assist financial statement users in assessing an entity’s credit risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. This new accounting standard is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. This new accounting standard regarding disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses will impact disclosures only and will not have an impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

NOTE 10 — SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company is a financial holding company with subsidiaries engaged in the business of banking and activities closely related to banking. The Company determines reportable segments based upon the services offered, the significance of those services to the Company’s financial condition and operating results and management’s regular review of the operating results of those services. The Company’s primary segment is Community Banking, which includes providing a full range of deposit products, commercial loans and consumer loans. The Company has also designated two additional reportable segments — Insurance Agencies and General Corporate and Other. The Company’s insurance agencies serve as agents in the sale of title insurance, commercial lines of insurance and full lines of property and casualty, life, health and employee benefits products and services. The General Corporate and Other operating segment includes leasing, mortgage lending, trust services, credit card activities, investment services and other activities not allocated to the Community Banking or Insurance Agencies operating segments.

The decrease in performance of the General Corporate and Other operating segment for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily related to mortgage lending.

Results of operations and selected financial information by operating segment for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

NOTE 11 – MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”), which are recognized as a separate asset on the date the corresponding mortgage loan is sold, are recorded at fair value as determined at each accounting period end. An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s MSRs is determined utilizing assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand. Data and assumptions used in the fair value calculation related to MSRs as of the dates indicated were as follows:

	September 30,				December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2010		2009		2009
Unpaid principal balance	$	3,690,125	$	3,355,010	$	3,413,202
Weighted-average prepayment speed (CPR)		23.2		18.5		15.9
Discount rate (annual percentage)		10.3		10.3		10.3
Weighted-average coupon interest rate (percentage)		5.4		5.7		5.6
Weighted-average remaining maturity (months)		318.0		321.0		321.0
Weighted-average servicing fee (basis points)		28.6		28.9		28.8

Because the valuation is determined by using discounted cash flow models, the primary risk inherent in valuing the MSRs is the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the estimated life of the servicing revenue stream. The use of different estimates or assumptions could also produce different fair values. The Company does not hedge the change in fair value of MSRs and, therefore, the Company is susceptible to significant fluctuations in the fair value of its MSRs in changing interest rate environments.

16

The Company has only one class of mortgage servicing asset comprised of closed end loans for one-to-four family residences, secured by first liens. The following table presents the activity in this class for the periods indicated:

	2010			2009
	(In thousands)
Fair value as of January 1	$	35,560		$	24,972
Additions:
Origination of servicing assets		9,173			11,879
Changes in fair value:
Due to payoffs/paydowns		(4,900	)		(5,370	)
Due to change in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model		(12,924	)		755
Other changes in fair value		(8	)		(9	)
Fair value as of September 30	$	26,901		$	32,227

All of the changes to the fair value of the MSRs are recorded as part of mortgage lending noninterest revenue on the income statement. As part of mortgage lending noninterest revenue, the Company recorded contractual servicing fees of $2.6 million and $2.4 million and late and other ancillary fees of approximately $358,000 and $398,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company recorded contractual servicing fees of $7.7 million and $7.0 million and late and other ancillary fees of $1.0 million and approximately $927,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

NOTE 12 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The derivatives held by the Company include commitments to fund fixed-rate mortgage loans to customers and forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans. The Company’s objective in obtaining the forward commitments is to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with the commitments to fund the fixed-rate mortgage loans. Both the commitments to fund fixed-rate mortgage loans and the forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans are reported at fair value, with adjustments being recorded in current period earnings, and are not accounted for as hedges. At September 30, 2010, the notional amount of forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans was $256.7 million with a carrying value and fair value reflecting a loss of $1.2 million. At September 30, 2009, the notional amount of forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans was $132.8 million with a carrying value and fair value reflecting a loss of $1.2 million. At September 30, 2010, the notional amount of commitments to fund individual fixed-rate mortgage loans was $203.8 million with a carrying value and fair value reflecting a gain of $3.1 million. At September 30, 2009, the notional amount of commitments to fund individual fixed-rate mortgage loans was $100.0 million with a carrying value and fair value reflecting a gain of $1.3 million.

The Company also enters into derivative financial instruments in the form of interest rate swaps to meet the financing, interest rate and equity risk management needs of its customers. Upon entering into these interest rate swaps to meet customer needs, the Company enters into offsetting positions to minimize interest rate and equity risk to the Company. These derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value with any resulting gain or loss recorded in current period earnings. These instruments and their offsetting positions are recorded in other assets and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2010, the notional amount of customer related derivative financial instruments was $506.3 million with an average maturity of 76 months, an average interest receive rate of 2.8% and an average interest pay rate of 6.1%.

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

“Fair value” is defined by FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“FASB ASC 820”), as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Observable

17

inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity’s. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into the following three levels, based on the reliability of inputs:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Determination of Fair Value

The Company uses the valuation methodologies listed below to measure different financial instruments at fair value. An indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified is included. Where appropriate, the description includes details of the valuation models, the key inputs to those models as well as any significant assumptions.

Available-for-sale securities.Available-for-sale securities 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, fair values are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities. The Company’s available-for-sale securities that are traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, are classified as Level 1. Available-for-sale securities valued using matrix pricing are classified as Level 2. Available-for-sale securities valued using matrix pricing that has been adjusted to compensate for the present value of expected cash flows, market liquidity, credit quality and volatility are classified as Level 3.

Mortgage servicing rights.The Company records MSRs at fair value on a recurring basis with subsequent remeasurement of MSRs based on change in fair value. An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s MSRs is determined by utilizing assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand. All of the Company’s MSRs are classified as Level 3.

Derivative instruments.The Company’s derivative instruments consist of commitments to fund fixed-rate mortgage loans to customers, forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans and interest rate swaps. Fair value of these derivative instruments is measured on a recurring basis using either observable market price or a discounted cash flow model using observable market inputs. The Company’s interest rate swaps are classified as Level 2. The Company’s commitments to fund fixed-rate mortgage loans to customers and forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans are classified as Level 3.

Loans held for sale.Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value and are subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments. Estimated fair value is determined on the basis of existing commitments or the current market value of similar loans. All of the Company’s loans held for sale are classified as Level 2.

Impaired loans.Loans considered impaired under FASB ASC 310 are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments to reflect (1) partial write-downs that are based on the observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral, or (2) the full charge-off of the loan carrying value. All of the Company’s impaired loans are classified as Level 3.

18

Other real estate owned.Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs and is subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments. Estimated fair value is determined on the basis of independent appraisals and other relevant factors. All of the Company’s OREO is classified as Level 3.

NOTE 14 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments (“FASB ASC 825”), requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions are set forth below for the Company’s financial instruments.

Securities.Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities.

Loans and Leases.Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans and leases with similar financial characteristics. The fair value of loans and leases is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using rates the Company would currently offer customers based on the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan or lease. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows and discount rates are judgmentally determined using available market and borrower information. Estimated maturity represents the expected average cash flow period, which in some instances is different than the stated maturity. This entrance price approach results in a calculated fair value that would be different than an exit or estimated actual sales price approach and such differences could be significant.

Loans Held for Sale.Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value and are subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments. Estimated fair value is determined on the basis of existing commitments or the prevailing market value of similar loans.

Deposit Liabilities. Under FASB ASC 825, the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest bearing demand deposits, interest bearing demand deposits and savings, is equal to the amount payable on demand as of the reporting date. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the prevailing rates offered for deposits of similar maturities.

Debt. The carrying amounts for federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity. The fair value of the Company’s fixed-term Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the prevailing rates available for advances of similar maturities. The fair value of the Company’s junior subordinated debt is based on market prices or dealer quotes.

Derivative Instruments.The Company has commitments to fund fixed-rate mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans. The fair value of these derivative instruments is based on observable market prices. The Company also enters into interest rate swaps to meet the financing, interest rate and equity risk management needs of its customers. The fair value of these instruments is either an observable market price or a discounted cash flow valuation using the terms of swap agreements but substituting original interest rates with prevailing interest rates.

Lending Commitments.The Company’s lending commitments are negotiated at prevailing market rates and are relatively short-term in nature. As a matter of policy, the Company generally makes commitments for fixed-rate loans for relatively short periods of time. Therefore, the estimated value of the Company’s lending commitments approximates the carrying amount and is immaterial to the financial statements.

NOTE 16 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in lines of business that are heavily regulated and involve a large volume of financial transactions with numerous customers through offices in nine states. Although the Company and its subsidiaries have developed policies and procedures to minimize the impact of legal non-compliance and disputes, litigation presents an ongoing risk.

The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various lawsuits, including the litigation discussed below and claims arising out of the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims are against entities of which the Company is a successor as a result of business combinations. Management of the Company evaluates lawsuits based on information currently available, including advice of counsel and assessment of available insurance coverage. Management is currently of the opinion that the ultimate resolution or financial liability with respect to pending lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position or results of operations. Litigation is, however, inherently uncertain, and management cannot provide any assurance that the Company and/or its subsidiaries will prevail in any of these actions, nor can management estimate with reasonable certainty the amount of damages that the Company or any of its subsidiaries might incur.

On May 12, 2010, the Company and its Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer were named in a purported class-action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on behalf of certain purchasers of the Company’s common stock. On September 17, 2010, an Executive Vice President of the Company was added as a party to the lawsuit. The amended complaint alleges that the defendants issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business and financial results. The plaintiff seeks class certification, an unspecified amount of damages and awards of costs and attorneys’ fees and such other equitable relief as the Court may deem just and proper. No class has been certified and, at this stage of the lawsuit, management cannot determine the probability of an unfavorable outcome to the Company. Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate resolution or financial liability with respect to this litigation, management is currently of the opinion that the outcome of this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW

BancorpSouth, Inc. (the “Company”) is a regional financial holding company headquartered in Tupelo, Mississippi with $13.6 billion in assets at September 30, 2010. BancorpSouth Bank (the “Bank”), the Company’s wholly-

23

owned banking subsidiary, has commercial banking operations in Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Florida and Missouri. The Bank’s insurance agency subsidiary also operates an office in Illinois. The Bank and its consumer finance, credit insurance, insurance agency and brokerage subsidiaries provide commercial banking, leasing, mortgage origination and servicing, insurance, brokerage and trust services to corporate customers, local governments, individuals and other financial institutions through an extensive network of branches and offices.

Management’s discussion and analysis provides a narrative discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. For a complete understanding of the following discussion, you should refer to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the notes to such financial statements found under “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report. This discussion and analysis is based on reported financial information.

As a financial holding company, the financial condition and operating results of the Company are heavily influenced by economic trends nationally and in the specific markets in which the Company’s subsidiaries provide financial services. Generally, during the past two years, the pressures of the national and regional economic cycle have created a difficult operating environment for the financial services industry. The Company is not immune to such pressures and the continuing economic downturn has had a negative impact on the Company and its customers in all of the markets that it serves. The impact was reflected in a decline in credit quality and increases in the Company’s measures of non-performing loans and leases (“NPLs”) and net charge-offs, compared to the first nine months of 2009. While NPLs and net charge-offs have increased, management believes that the Company is well positioned with respect to overall credit quality and the strength of its allowance for credit losses to meet the challenges of the current economic cycle. Management believes, however, that continued weakness in the economic environment could adversely affect the strength of the credit quality of the Company’s assets overall. Therefore, management will continue to focus on early identification and decisive resolution of potential credit issues.

Most of the revenue of the Company is derived from the operation of its principal operating subsidiary, the Bank. The financial condition and operating results of the Bank are affected by the level and volatility of interest rates on loans, investment securities, deposits and other borrowed funds, and the impact of economic downturns on loan demand, collateral values and creditworthiness of existing borrowers. The financial services industry is highly competitive and heavily regulated. The Company’s success depends on its ability to compete aggressively within its markets while maintaining sufficient asset quality and cost controls to generate net income.

The information that follows is provided to enhance comparability of financial information between periods and to provide a better understanding of the Company’s operations.

In addition to financial ratios defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), the Company utilizes tangible shareholders’ equity and tangible asset measures when evaluating the performance of the Company. Tangible shareholders’ equity is defined by the Company as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Tangible assets are defined by the Company as total assets less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Management believes the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets to be an important measure of financial strength of the Company. The following table reconciles tangible assets and tangible shareholders’ equity as presented above to U.S. GAAP financial measures as reflected in the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements:

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The Company reported net income of $11.3 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to net income of $21.5 million for the same quarter of 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, the Company recorded net income of $7.1 million compared to net income of $84.9 million for the first nine months of 2009. The provision for credit losses was the most significant factor contributing to this decrease in earnings as the charge in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 was $54.9 million and $160.7 million, respectively, compared to a charge of $22.5 million and $55.1 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively. The larger provision reflected the impact of a significant increase in NPLs, from $111.6 million at September 30, 2009 to $409.4 million at September 30, 2010, as the length and severity of the recession, as well as the lackluster current economic environment affected a larger portion of the Company’s borrowers. This pressure continues to be evident on real estate construction, acquisition, and development loans and more specifically on residential construction, acquisition and development and consumer mortgage loans. Many of these loans became collateral-dependent in the second and third quarters requiring recognition of an impairment loss to reflect the decline in real estate values.

The primary source of revenue for the Company is the amount of net interest revenue earned by the Bank. Net interest revenue is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and other obligations. During the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, the Company experienced a $238.5 million and $11.1 million increase in average interest earning assets, respectively, and a $50.3 million increase and $134.0 million decline in average interest costing liabilities, respectively, when compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2009. As a result of a declining interest rate environment, average interest-bearing liabilities declining for the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 and a 9.4% and 7.4% increase in average noninterest-bearing demand deposits for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, respectively, net interest revenue decreased 1.8% for the third quarter of 2010 to $109.7 million from $111.7 million for the third quarter of 2009. Net interest revenue remained relatively stable at $330.9 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $332.6 million for the same period of 2009. While loan demand has been weak, the Company has managed to replace some loan runoff with new loan production. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, East Texas and Louisiana have provided most of the new loan production.

The Company attempts to diversify its revenue stream by increasing the amount of revenue received from mortgage lending operations, insurance agency activities, brokerage and securities activities and other activities that generate fee income. Management believes this diversification is important to reduce the impact of fluctuations in net interest revenue on the overall operating results of the Company. Noninterest revenue increased 11.7% for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009 and decreased 9.8% for the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009. One of the primary contributors to the fluctuation in noninterest revenue over these periods was mortgage lending revenue, which increased 342.3% to $8.9 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2009 and decreased 50.8% to $11.6 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $23.6 million for the first nine months of 2009. The increase in mortgage lending revenue for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily related to better pricing and delivery execution in a declining interest rate environment as 76% of the production volume was a result of refinancing transactions. The origination revenue increase was somewhat offset by the decrease in the fair value of MSRs of $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to a decrease of $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2009. The decrease in mortgage lending revenue for the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009 was a result of the decrease in the fair value of MSRs of $13.0 million for the first nine months 2010 compared to an increase in the fair value of MSRs of approximately $755,000 for the first nine months of 2009. The decrease in mortgage lending revenue for the first nine months of 2010 was also a result of the decrease in mortgage originations, which fell to $988.3 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $1.2 billion for the first nine months of 2009.

Contributing to the increase in noninterest revenue for the third quarter of 2010 were net security gains of $2.3 million compared to no significant security gains or losses during the third quarter of 2009. The third quarter net security gains were somewhat offset by the recognition of approximately $236,000 in other-than-temporary impairment on pooled trust preferred securities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recognized $1.5 million in other-than-temporary impairment on pooled trust preferred securities, which somewhat offset the $4.5 million of gains recognized on the sales and calls of available-for-sale securities and the calls of held-to-maturity securities. Security gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were not significant. Revenue from bank owned life insurance decreased for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods as a result of the Company recording life insurance proceeds of $1.4 million net of cash surrender value during the third quarter of 2009. Other miscellaneous noninterest revenue decreased $1.7 million, or 36.3%, for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009 and decreased $13.5 million, or 56.9%, for the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009. During the first nine months of 2009, the Company recorded interest on tax refunds of $2.8 million, gains on the sale of student loans of $3.7 million, a gain of $1.8 million on the sale of the Company’s remaining shares of MasterCard, Inc. common stock, and an insurance recovery on a casualty loss of $1.3 million.

Noninterest expense remained relatively stable for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 and decreased 0.8% to $363.6 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $366.7 million for the first nine months of 2009. The slight decrease in noninterest expense for the first nine months of 2010 was primarily a result of a $6.1 million special FDIC assessment during the first nine months of 2009 as part of the restoration plan for the Deposit Insurance Fund with no special FDIC assessment during the first nine months of 2010. The Company continues to focus attention on controlling noninterest expense. The major components of net income are discussed in more detail in the various sections that follow.

The Company’s capital and liquidity remained strong during the third quarter of 2010. Total shareholders’ equity to total assets ratio was 9.10% at September 30, 2010, compared to 9.69% at September 30, 2009. Also, demand deposits increased 13.2%, contributing to an overall deposit increase of 8.7% at September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009. This increase in deposits allowed the Company to reduce its reliance on short-term borrowings, which decreased $362.5 million, or 35.7%, at September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Revenue

Net interest revenue is the difference between interest revenue earned on assets, such as loans, leases and securities, and interest expense paid on liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings, and continues to provide the Company with its principal source of revenue. Net interest revenue is affected by the general level of interest rates, changes in interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The Company’s long-term objective is to manage interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to maximize net interest revenue, while balancing interest rate, credit and liquidity risk. Net interest margin is determined by dividing fully taxable equivalent net interest revenue by average earning assets. For purposes of the following discussion, revenue from tax-exempt loans and investment securities has been adjusted to a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis, using an effective tax rate of 35%. The following tables present average interest earning assets, average interest bearing liabilities, net interest revenue-FTE, net interest margin-FTE and net interest rate spread for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

Net interest revenue-FTE for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 decreased $1.9 million, or 1.6%, and $1.2 million, or 0.4%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009. The decrease in net interest revenue-FTE for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 was the result of continued deposit growth, combined with a lack of loan growth, resulting in an increase in short-term investments that have lower average rates earned than the average rates paid on the deposit growth.

Interest revenue-FTE for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased $8.4 million, or 5.4%, compared to the same period in 2009. Interest revenue-FTE for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased $23.3 million, or 4.9%, compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in interest revenue-FTE for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 was primarily a result of the declining loan yields as interest rates were at historically low levels resulting in a decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets of 38 basis points for the third quarter of 2010, compared to the same period in 2009 and a decrease of 26 basis points for the first nine months of 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. Average interest-earning assets increased $238.5 million, or 2.0%, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009 and increased $11.1 million, or 0.1% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. The increase in average interest earning assets for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 was primarily a result of the increase in short-term investments, which was a result of the continued deposit growth, combined with a lack of loan growth.

Interest expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased $6.5 million, or 15.7%, compared to the same period in 2009. Interest expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased $22.1 million, or 16.9%, compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in interest expense for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 was a result of the increase in lower cost interest bearing demand deposits combined with the decrease in other time deposit and short-term borrowing rates resulting in an overall decrease in the average rate paid of 27 basis points for both the third quarter and the first nine months of 2010. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $50.3 million, or 0.5%, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 and decreased $134.0 million, or 1.3%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2010 was primarily a result of the increase in lower cost interest bearing demand deposits, savings and other time deposits, offset by the decrease in short-term and long-term borrowings. The decrease in average interest bearing liabilities for the first nine months of 2010 was primarily a result of the decrease in short-term and long-term borrowings, somewhat offset by the increase in lower cost interest bearing demand deposits, savings and other time deposits.

Net interest margin decreased to 3.64% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from 3.77% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and decreased to 3.74% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from 3.75% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in the net interest margin was primarily a result of the higher level of average nonaccrual loans and the reversal of current year interest for loans placed on nonaccrual status or charged off during 2010. Also, the combination of increased deposits and weak loan demand resulted in higher levels of short-term investments with relatively low yields.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The interest rate sensitivity gap is the difference between the maturity or repricing opportunities of interest sensitive assets and interest sensitive liabilities for a given period of time. A prime objective of the Company’s asset/liability management is to maximize net interest margin while maintaining a reasonable mix of interest sensitive assets and liabilities. The following table presents the Company’s interest rate sensitivity at September 30, 2010:

In the event interest rates increase after September 30, 2010, based on this interest rate sensitivity gap, it is likely that the Company would experience slightly decreased net interest revenue in the following one-year period, as the cost of funds would increase at a more rapid rate than interest revenue on interest-earning assets. Conversely, in the event interest rates decrease after September 30, 2010, based on this interest rate sensitivity gap, the Company would likely experience increased net interest revenue in the following one-year period. It should be noted that the balances shown in the table above are at September 30, 2010 and may not be reflective of positions at other times during the year or in subsequent periods. Allocations to specific interest rate sensitivity periods are based on the earlier of maturity or repricing dates.

As of September 30, 2010, the Bank had $2.5 billion in variable rate loans with interest rates determined by a floor, or minimum rate. This portion of the loan portfolio had an average interest rate earned of 4.51%, an average maturity of 26 months and a fully-indexed interest rate of 3.76% at September 30, 2010. The fully-indexed interest rate is the interest rate that these loans would be earning without the effect of interest rate floors. While the Bank benefits from interest rate floors in the current interest rate environment, loans currently earning their floored interest rate may not experience an immediate impact on the interest rate earned should key indices rise. Examples of key indices include the Wall Street Journal prime rate, the Bank’s prime rate and the London Interbank Offering Rate. The Bank’s net interest margin may be negatively impacted by the timing and magnitude of a rise in key indices.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Interest rate risk refers to the potential changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity (“EVE”) resulting from adverse movements in interest rates. EVE is defined as the net present value of the balance sheet’s cash flow. EVE is calculated by discounting projected principal and interest cash flows under the current interest

32

rate environment. The present value of asset cash flows less the present value of liability cash flows derives the net present value of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company’s Asset / Liability Committee utilizes financial simulation models to measure interest rate exposure. These models are designed to simulate the cash flow and accrual characteristics of the Company’s balance sheet. In addition, the models incorporate assumptions about the direction and volatility of interest rates, the slope of the yield curve, and the changing composition of the Company’s balance sheet arising from both strategic plans and customer behavior. Finally, management makes assumptions regarding loan and deposit growth, pricing, and prepayment speeds.

The sensitivity analysis included below delineates the percentage change in net interest income and EVE derived from instantaneous parallel rate shifts of plus and minus 200 basis points. The impact of a minus 200 basis point rate shock as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 was not considered meaningful because of the historically low interest rate environment. Variances were calculated from the base case scenario, which reflected prevailing market rates. Management assumed all non-maturity deposits have an average life of one day for calculating EVE, which management believes is the most conservative approach.

Provision for Credit Losses and Allowance for Credit Losses

In the normal course of business, the Bank assumes risks in extending credit. The Bank manages these risks through underwriting in accordance with its lending policies, loan review procedures and the diversification of its loan portfolio. Although it is not possible to predict credit losses with certainty, management regularly reviews the characteristics of the loan portfolio to determine its overall risk profile and quality.

The provision for credit losses is the periodic cost of providing an allowance or reserve for estimated probable losses on loans and leases. The Bank’s Board of Directors has appointed a loan loss reserve valuation committee (the “Loan Loss Committee”), which bases its estimates of losses on three primary components: (1) estimates of inherent losses which may exist in various segments of performing loans and leases; (2) specifically identified losses in individually analyzed credits; and (3) qualitative factors which may impact the performance of the portfolio. Factors such as financial condition of the borrower and guarantor, recent credit performance, delinquency, liquidity, cash flows, collateral type and value are used to assess credit risk. Expected loss estimates are influenced by the historical losses experienced by the Bank for loans and leases of comparable creditworthiness and structure. Specific loss assessments are performed for loans and leases of significant size and delinquency based upon the collateral protection and expected future cash flows to determine the amount of impairment under

33

FASB ASC 310, Receivables (“FASB ASC 310”). In addition, qualitative factors such as changes in economic and business conditions, concentrations of risk, loan and lease growth, acquisitions and changes in portfolio risk due to regulatory changes are considered in determining the adequacy of the level of the allowance for credit losses.

Attention is paid to the quality of the loan portfolio through a formal loan review process. An independent loan review department of the Bank is responsible for reviewing the credit rating and classification of individual credits and assessing trends in the portfolio, adherence to internal credit policies and procedures and other factors that may affect the overall adequacy of the allowance. The Loan Loss Committee is responsible for ensuring that the allowance for credit losses provides coverage of both known and inherent losses. The Loan Loss Committee meets at least quarterly to determine the amount of adjustments to the allowance for credit losses. The Loan Loss Committee is composed of senior management from the Bank’s loan administration and finance departments. In 2010, the Company established a real estate risk management group and an Impairment Committee. The real estate risk management group oversees compliance with regulations and U.S. GAAP related to lending activities where real estate is the primary collateral. The Impairment Committee is responsible for evaluating loans that have been specifically identified through various channels, including examination of the watch list, past due listings, findings of the internal loan review department, loan officer assessments and loans to borrowers or industries experiencing problems. For all loans identified, the applicable loan officer is required to prepare an impairment analysis to be reviewed by the Impairment Committee. The Impairment Committee deems that a loan is impaired if it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the contractual principal and interest on the loan. The Impairment Committee also evaluates the circumstances surrounding the loan in order to determine if the loan officer used the most appropriate method for assessing the impairment of the loan (i.e., present value of expected future cash flows, observable market price or fair value of the underlying collateral). The Impairment Committee meets on a monthly basis.

Loans of $200,000 or more which become 60 or more days past due are identified for review and the Impairment Committee decides whether an impairment exists and to what extent a specific allowance for loss should be made. Loans not yet meeting these requirements may also be identified by management for impairment review. Loans subject to such review are evaluated as to collateral dependency, current collateral value, guarantor or other financial support and likely disposition. Each such loan is evaluated for impairment individually. The evaluation for impairment of real estate loans generally focuses on the fair value of collateral obtained from appraisals as the repayment of these loans may be dependent on the liquidation of the underlying collateral. In certain circumstances other information such as comparable sales data is deemed to be a more reliable indicator of value than the most recent appraisal. In these instances, that information is used in determining the impairment recorded for such loans. As the repayment of commercial and industrial loans is generally dependent upon cash flows of a business or guarantor support, the evaluation for impairment generally focuses on the discounted future cash flows of the borrower or guarantor support while considering the projected liquidation of any pledged collateral. The Impairment Committee reviews the results of each evaluation and approves the final impairment amounts which are then included in the analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses in accordance with FASB ASC 310. Loans identified for impairment are placed in non-accrual status.

The Company’s policy is to obtain an appraisal at the time of loan origination for real estate collateral securing a loan of $250,000 or more, consistent with regulatory guidelines. The Company’s policy is to obtain an updated appraisal when certain events occur, such as the refinancing of the debt, the renewal of the debt or events that indicate potential impairment. A new appraisal is generally ordered for loans greater than $200,000 that have characteristics of potential impairment, such as delinquency or other loan-specific factors identified by management, and when a current appraisal (dated within the prior 12 months) is not available or when a current appraisal uses assumptions that are not consistent with the expected disposition of the loan collateral. In order to measure impairment properly at the time that a loan is deemed to be impaired, a staff appraiser may estimate the collateral fair value based upon earlier appraisals, sales contracts, approved foreclosure bids, comparable sales, officer estimates or current market conditions until a new appraisal is received. This estimate can be used to determine the extent of the impairment on the loan. After a loan is deemed to be impaired, it is management’s policy to obtain an updated appraisal on at least an annual basis. Management performs a review of the pertinent facts and circumstances of each impaired loan on a monthly basis. As of each review date, management considers whether additional impairment should be recorded based on recent activity related to the loan-specific collateral as well as other relevant comparable assets. Any adjustment to reflect further impairments, either as a result of management’s

34

periodic review or as a result of an updated appraisal, are made through recording additional loan loss provisions or charge-offs.

At September 30, 2010, impaired loans totaled $242.2 million, which was net of cumulative charge-offs of $69.8 million, and the Company had specific reserves of $43.6 million included in the allowance for credit losses. All impaired loans at September 30, 2010 were from the Company’s commercial or residential real estate portfolios and, accordingly, were evaluated for impairment based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. As part of the impairment review process, appraisals are used to determine the property values. The appraised values that are used are generally based on the disposition value of the property which assumes Bank ownership of the property “as-is” and a 180 day marketing period. If a current appraisal or one with an inspection date within the past 12 months using the necessary assumptions is not available, a new appraisal is ordered. In cases where an impairment exists and a current appraisal is not available at the time of review, a staff appraiser may determine an estimated value based upon earlier appraisals, the sales contract, approved foreclosure bids, comparable sales, officer estimates or current market conditions until a new appraisal is received. Once a current appraisal is received, the value used in the review will be updated and any adjustments to reflect further impairments are made. Appraisals are obtained from state-certified appraisers based on certain assumptions which may include foreclosure status, bank ownership, other real estate owned marketing period of 180 days, costs to sell, construction or development status and the highest and best use of the property. A staff appraiser may make adjustments to appraisals based on sales contracts, comparable sales and other pertinent information if an appraisal does not incorporate the effect of these assumptions.

When a guarantor is relied upon as a source of repayment, the Company makes an analysis of the strength of the guaranty. This analysis consists of a review of the guarantor’s personal and business financial statements and credit history and, as needed, a review of the guarantor’s tax returns and the preparation of a cash flow analysis of the guarantor. Management will continue to update its analysis on individual guarantors as circumstances change. Due to the continued weakness in the economy, subsequent analysis may result in the identification of the inability of some guarantors to perform under the agreed upon terms.

Any loan or portion thereof which is classified as “loss” by regulatory examiners or which is determined by management to be uncollectible, because of factors such as the borrower’s failure to pay interest or principal, the borrower’s financial condition, economic conditions in the borrower’s industry or the inadequacy of underlying collateral, is charged off.

The increase in the provision for credit losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 reflected the increased credit risk experienced by the Company, as the length and severity of the recession, as well as the lackluster prevailing economic environment affected the liquidity of the Company’s borrowers. Increases in net charge-offs in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 along

36

with a significant increase in NPLs resulted in a provision for credit losses of $54.9 million during the third quarter of 2010 compared to a provision of $22.5 million in the same quarter of 2009 and a provision for credit losses of $160.7 million during the first nine months of 2010 compared to a provision of $55.1 million for the same period in 2009. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans and leases increased to 2.10% for the third quarter of 2010 compared to net charge-offs of 0.68% for the third quarter of 2009 and increased to 1.81% for the first nine months of 2010 compared to 0.59% for the first nine months of 2009. These increases were primarily a result of increased losses within the real estate construction, acquisition and development segment of the Company’s loan portfolio and in its consumer mortgage portfolio. These portfolios experienced increased losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009, primarily because of the weakened financial condition of the corresponding borrowers and guarantors. These borrowers’ weakened state has hindered their ability to service their loans with the Company, which has caused a number of loans to become collateral dependent. Once it is determined a loan’s repayment is dependent upon the underlying collateral, the loan is charged down to net realizable value or a specific reserve is allocated to the loan. This process resulted in an increased level of charge-offs in the first nine months of 2010. The increased level of charge-offs has caused the ratio of the allowance for credit losses to annualized charge-offs to decline below historic levels. Management believes that the current levels of the allowance for credit losses are adequate, as 70% of nonaccrual loans have been charged down to net realizable value or have specific reserves to reflect recent appraised values. This has resulted in impaired loans having a net book value of 64% of their principal balance. As of September 30, 2010, the coverage of non-performing loans that were not impaired by reserves that had not been specifically identified for impaired loans was 97% compared to 208% at September 30, 2009.

The breakdown of the allowance by loan and lease category is based, in part, on evaluations of specific loan and lease histories and on economic conditions within specific industries or geographical areas. Accordingly, because all of these conditions are subject to change, the allocation is not necessarily indicative of the breakdown of any future allowance or losses. The following table presents (i) the breakdown of the allowance for credit losses by loan and lease category and (ii) the percentage of each category in the loan and lease portfolio to total loans and leases at the dates indicated:

The Company’s revenue from mortgage lending typically fluctuates as mortgage interest rates change and is primarily attributable to two activities — origination and sale of new mortgage loans and servicing mortgage loans. The Company’s normal practice is to originate mortgage loans for sale in the secondary market and to either retain or release the associated MSRs with the loan sold.

In the course of conducting the Company’s mortgage lending activities of originating mortgage loans and selling those loans in the secondary market, various representations and warranties are made to the purchasers of the mortgage loans. Every loan closed by the mortgage center is run through a government agency automated underwriting system. Any exceptions noted during this process are remedied prior to sale. These representations and warranties also apply to underwriting the real estate appraisal opinion of value for the collateral securing these loans. Under the representations and warranties, failure by the Company to comply with the underwriting and/or appraisal standards could result in the Company being required to repurchase the mortgage loan. During the first nine months of 2010, ten mortgage loans totaling $1.4 million were repurchased as a result of underwriting and appraisal standard exceptions.

The Company’s foreclosure process related to mortgage loans continues to operate effectively. A mortgage loan foreclosure committee reviews all delinquent loans before beginning the foreclosure process. All documents and activities related to the foreclosure process are executed in-house by mortgage department personnel.

Origination revenue, a component of mortgage lending revenue, is comprised of gains or losses from the sale of the mortgage loans originated, origination fees, underwriting fees and other fees associated with the origination of loans. Mortgage loan origination volumes of $490.3 million and $296.2 million produced origination revenue of $12.7 million and $3.3 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Origination volume of $988.3 million and $1.2 billion produced origination revenue of $20.7 million and $20.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. When compared to the same period in 2009, customer demand for refinancing due to falling mortgage rates increased volume and facilitated better pricing and delivery execution for the three months ended September 30, 2010 contributing to higher mortgage lending revenue during the third quarter of 2010. Origination volumes for the first nine months of 2010 were less than origination volumes for the first nine months of 2009, however, resulting in a decrease in mortgage lending revenue.

Revenue from the servicing process, another component of mortgage lending revenue, includes fees from the actual servicing of loans. Revenue from the servicing of loans was $2.9 million and $2.8 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, revenue from the servicing of loans was $8.8 million and $8.0 million, respectively. Mortgage lending revenue is also impacted by principal payments, prepayments and payoffs on loans in the servicing portfolio. Decreases in value from principal payments, prepayments and payoffs were $2.2 million and $1.4 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Decreases in value from principal payments, prepayments and payoffs were $4.9 million and $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Changes in the fair value of the Company’s MSRs are generally a result of changes in mortgage interest rates from the previous reporting date. An increase in mortgage interest rates typically results in an increase in the fair value of the MSRs while a decrease in mortgage interest rates typically results in a decrease in the fair value of MSRs. The Company does not hedge the change in fair value of its MSRs and is susceptible to significant fluctuations in their value in changing interest rate environments. Reflecting this sensitivity to interest rates, the fair value of MSRs decreased $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2010 and decreased $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2009. The fair value of MSRs decreased $12.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and increased approximately $755,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

The following tables present the Company’s mortgage lending operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

N/M=Not meaningful

Credit card, debit card and merchant fees increased for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods as a result of an increase in the number and monetary volume of items processed. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased slightly for the comparable three-month periods but remained relatively stable for the comparable nine-month periods. Trust income increased for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods primarily as a result of increases in the value of assets under management or in custody.

Net security gains for the three-month period ending September 30, 2010 were a result of sales of securities from the available-for-sale portfolio and calls of securities from the held-to-maturity portfolio, with these net gains slightly offset by the other-than-temporary impairment charge of approximately $236,000 related to the Company’s investment in pooled trust preferred securities. Net security gains for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2010 were a result of sales and calls of securities from the available-for-sale portfolio and calls of securities from the held-to-maturity portfolio, with these net gains offset by the $1.5 million other-than-temporary impairment charge related to the Company’s investment in pooled trust preferred securities.

Insurance commissions remained relatively stable for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods. Annuity fees decreased for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods as a result of the prevailing interest rate environment. Brokerage commissions and fees remained stable for the comparable three-month periods and increased for the comparable nine-month periods because activity increased during the first six months of 2010 as the financial markets recovered somewhat. Bank-owned life insurance revenue decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 as a result of the Company recording life insurance proceeds of $1.4 million net of cash surrender value during the third quarter of 2009. Other miscellaneous income decreased for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods as other miscellaneous income in the first nine months of 2009 included various non-recurring items such as interest on tax refunds of $2.8 million, a gain of $3.7 million from the sale of student loans, a gain of $1.8 million on the sale of the Company’s remaining shares of MasterCard, Inc. common stock, and an insurance recovery of $1.3 million related to a casualty loss.

Salaries and employee benefits expense for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased slightly compared to the same period in 2009, primarily because the Company employed fewer people during 2010 combined with a decrease in the amounts accrued under the Company’s incentive plans. Equipment expense decreased for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods primarily because of decreased depreciation. The increase in deposit insurance assessments for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 was a result of deposit growth and a slightly higher assessment rate. The decrease in deposit insurance assessments for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 was primarily a result of the special FDIC assessment of $6.1 million during the second quarter of 2009 with no special assessment during 2010, offset somewhat by deposit growth and a slightly higher assessment rate.

Foreclosed property expense increased for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared with the same periods in 2009 as the Company experienced larger losses on the sale and writedown of other real estate owned as a result of the decline in property values attributable to the prevailing economic environment. The

Total foreclosed property expense	$	12,263	$	7,308		67.8	%

While the Company experienced some fluctuations in various components of other noninterest expense, including advertising, telecommunications, legal and amortization of intangibles, total noninterest expense remained relatively stable for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared with the same periods in 2009.

Income Tax

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $9.8 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to income tax expense of $7.5 million for the third quarter of 2009. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, the income tax benefit was $10.3 million, compared to an income tax expense of $36.7 million for the same period in 2009. Due to the volatility on the Company’s earnings and the proximity of year-to-date earnings to breakeven, the income tax benefit for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 reflected the change in the Company’s estimate of taxable income for 2010. Year-to-date and third quarter 2010 income tax calculations were based on actual results of operations, including tax preference items, through September 30, 2010.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The percentage of earning assets to total assets measures the effectiveness of management’s efforts to invest available funds into the most efficient and profitable uses. Earning assets at September 30, 2010 were $12.5 billion, or 91.7% of total assets, compared with $11.9 billion, or 90.7% of total assets, at December 31, 2009.

Loans and Leases

The Bank’s loan and lease portfolio represents the largest single component of the Company’s earning asset base, comprising 78.3% of average earning assets during the third quarter of 2010. The Bank’s lending activities include both commercial and consumer loans and leases. Loan and lease originations are derived from a number of sources, including direct solicitation by the Bank’s loan officers, existing depositors and borrowers, builders, attorneys, walk-in customers and, in some instances, other lenders, real estate broker referrals and mortgage loan companies. The Bank has established systematic procedures for approving and monitoring loans and leases that vary depending on the size and nature of the loan or lease, and applies these procedures in a disciplined manner. The Company’s loans and leases are widely diversified by borrower and industry. Loans and leases, net of unearned income, totaled $9.5 billion at September 30, 2010, representing a 2.7% decrease from $9.8 billion at December 31, 2009. The decrease in loans and leases, net of unearned income, was primarily a result of continued low loan demand in the

42

markets served by the Company; however, the Company was able to replace some loan runoff with new loan production, particularly out of its East Texas and Louisiana markets.

Commercial and Industrial— Commercial and industrial loans are loans and leases to finance business operations, equipment and owner-occupied facilities primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises. These include both lines of credit for terms of one year or less and term loans which are amortized over the useful life of the assets financed. Personal guarantees are generally required for these loans. Also included in this category are loans to finance agricultural production and business credit card lines.

Real Estate – Consumer Mortgages —Consumer mortgages are first- or second-lien loans to consumers secured by a primary residence or second home. These loans are generally amortized over terms up to 15 or 20 years with maturities of three to five years. The loans are secured by properties located within the local market area of the community bank which originates and services the loan. These loans are underwritten in accordance with the Bank’s general loan policies and procedures which require, among other things, proper documentation of each borrower’s financial condition, satisfactory credit history and property value. Consumer mortgages outstanding

43

declined during 2009 as the housing sector slowed and lower long-term mortgage rates were available. In addition to loans originated through the Bank’s branches, the Bank originates and services consumer mortgages sold in the secondary market which are underwritten and closed pursuant to investor and agency guidelines. The Bank’s exposure to sub-prime mortgages is minimal.

Real Estate – Home Equity —Home equity loans include revolving credit lines which are secured by a first or second lien on a borrower’s residence. Each loan is underwritten individually by lenders who specialize in home equity lending and must conform to Bank lending policies and procedures for consumer loans as to borrower’s financial condition, ability to repay, satisfactory credit history and the condition and value of collateral. Properties securing home equity loans are located in the local market areas of the community bank originating and servicing the loan. The Bank has not purchased home equity loans from brokers or other lending institutions.

Real Estate – Agricultural —Agricultural loans include loans to purchase agricultural land and production lines secured by farm land. Agricultural loans outstanding remain stable.

Real Estate – Commercial and Industrial-Owner Occupied —Commercial and industrial-owner occupied loans include loans secured by business facilities to finance business operations, equipment and owner-occupied facilities primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises. These include both lines of credit for terms of one year or less and term loans which are amortized over the useful life of the assets financed. Personal guarantees are generally required for these loans.

Real Estate – Construction, Acquisition and Development —Construction, acquisition and development loans include both loans and credit lines for the purpose of purchasing, carrying and developing land into commercial or residential subdivisions. Also included are loans and lines for construction of residential, multi-family and commercial buildings. These loans are often structured with interest reserves to fund interest costs during the construction and development period. Additionally, certain loans are structured with interest only terms. The Bank engages in construction and development lending only in local markets served by its branches. The weakened economy and housing market has negatively impacted builders and developers in particular. Sales of finished houses slowed during 2009 and activity remained slow during the first nine months of 2010, which has resulted in lower demand for residential lots and development land. The Company curtailed the origination of new construction and development projects significantly during 2009 and the Company maintained that strategy during the first nine months of 2010.

The underwriting process for construction, acquisition and development loans with interest reserves is essentially the same as that for a loan without interest reserves and may include analysis of borrower and guarantor financial strength, market demand for the proposed project, experience and success with similar projects, property values, time horizon for project completion and the availability of permanent financing once the project is completed. Construction, acquisition and development loans with or without interest reserves are inspected periodically to ensure that the project is on schedule and eligible for requested draws. Inspections may be performed by construction inspectors hired by the Company or by appropriate loan officers and are done periodically to monitor the progress of a particular project. These inspections may also include discussions with project managers and engineers. For performing construction, acquisition and development loans, interest is generally recorded as interest income as it is earned. Non-performing construction, acquisition and development loans are placed on non-accrual status and interest income is not recognized, except in those situations where principal is expected to be received in full. In such situations, interest income is recognized as payment is received. At September 30, 2010, the Company had $41.9 million in loans that provide for the use of interest reserves with $1.0 million and $3.3 million recognized as interest income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, respectively.

Interest reserves are not included for any renewal period after construction is completed or otherwise ceases, requiring borrowers to make interest payments no less than quarterly. Loans for which construction is complete, or has ceased, and where interest payments are not made on a timely basis are considered non-performing and are generally placed in nonaccrual status. Procedures are in place to restrict the advancement of funds to keep a loan from becoming non-performing with any such advancement identified as a troubled debt restructure.

44

On a case by case basis, a construction, acquisition and development loan may be extended, renewed or restructured. Loans are sometimes extended for a short period of time (generally 90 days or less) beyond the contractual maturity to facilitate negotiations or allow the borrower to gain other financing or acquire more recent note-related information, such as appraisals or borrower financial statements. These short-term extensions are not ordinarily accounted for as TDRs if the loan and project are performing in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement and/or promissory note. Construction, acquisition and development loans may be renewed when the borrower has satisfied the terms and conditions of the original loan, including payment of interest, and when management believes that the borrower is able to continue to meet the terms of the renewed note during the renewal period. Many loans are structured to mature consistent with the construction or development period or at least annually. If concessions are granted to a borrower as a result of its financial difficulties, the loan is classified as a TDR and analyzed for impairment.

The real estate risk management group is responsible for reviewing and approving the structure and classification of all construction, acquisition and development loan renewals and modifications above a certain threshold. The analysis performed by the real estate risk management group may include the review of updated appraisals, borrower and guarantor financial condition, construction status and proposed loan structure. If the new terms of the loan meet the criteria of a troubled debt restructuring as set out in FASB ASC 310, the loan is identified as such.

The construction, acquisition and development portfolio may be further categorized by risk characteristics into the following six categories: commercial acquisition and development, residential acquisition and development, multi-family construction, one-to-four family construction, commercial construction and recreation and all other loans. Real estate – construction, acquisition and development loans were $1.3 billion at September 30, 2010. The following table shows the Company’s real estate – construction, acquisition and development portfolio by geographical location at September 30, 2010:

* The totals for Tennessee include the greater Memphis, Tennessee area, a portion of which is in northwest Mississippi.

Real Estate – Commercial —Commercial loans include loans to finance income-producing commercial and multi-family properties. Lending in this category is generally limited to properties located in the Bank’s trade area with only limited exposure to properties located elsewhere but owned by in-market borrowers. Loans in this category include loans for neighborhood retail centers, medical and professional offices, single retail stores, warehouses and apartments leased generally to local businesses and residents. The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration the occupancy and rental rates as well as the financial health of the borrower. The Bank’s exposure to national retail tenants is minimal. The Bank has not purchased commercial real estate loans from brokers or third-party originators.

Credit Cards —Credit cards include consumer and business MasterCard and Visa accounts and private label accounts for local merchants. The Bank offers credit cards primarily to its deposit and loan customers. Credit card balances outstanding continue to be stable.

All Other —All other loans include consumer installment loans and loans and leases to state, county and municipal governments and non-profit agencies. Consumer installment loans include term loans of up to five years secured by

45

automobiles, boats and recreational vehicles. The Bank offers lease financing for vehicles and heavy equipment to state, county and municipal governments and medical equipment to healthcare providers across the southern states.

NPLs consist of non-accrual loans and leases, loans and leases 90 days or more past due, still accruing, and accruing loans and leases that have been restructured (primarily in the form of reduced interest rates and modified payment terms) because of the borrower’s and guarantor’s weakened financial condition. The Bank’s policy provides that loans and leases are generally placed in non-accrual status if, in management’s opinion, payment in full of principal or interest is not expected or payment of principal or interest is more than 90 days past due, unless the loan or lease is both well-secured and in the process of collection. The Bank’s NPAs consist of NPLs and other real estate owned, which consists of foreclosed properties. The Bank’s NPAs, which are carried either in the loan account or other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, depending on foreclosure status, were as follows at the end of each period presented:

	September 30,						December 31,
	2010			2009			2009

NPAs to net loans and leases		5.17	%		1.77	%		2.51	%

NPLs increased at September 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009. NPLs were $409.4 million at the end of the third quarter of 2010, an increase of $222.9 million from December 31, 2009 and an increase of $297.8 million from September 30, 2009. Included in NPLs at September 30, 2010 were $242.2 million of loans that are impaired. These impaired loans had a specific reserve of $43.6 million included in the allowance for credit losses of $205.1 million at September 30, 2010, and were net of $69.8 million in partial charge-downs previously taken on these impaired loans. NPLs at December 31, 2009 included $128.5 million of loans that are impaired. These impaired loans had a specific reserve of $22.7 million included in the allowance for credit losses of $176.0 million at December 31, 2009. NPLs at September 30, 2009 included $44.7 million of loans that are impaired. These impaired loans had a specific reserve of $5.9 million included in the allowance for credit losses of $144.8 million at September 30, 2009. The significant increase in restructured loans and leases still accruing reflects the increase in loans which meet the criteria for disclosure as troubled debt restructurings because payment terms or pricing have been modified but which demonstrate sufficient performance and collateral to support the remaining principal and accrued interest.

The increase in other real estate owned from September 30, 2009 to September 30, 2010 was reflective of the general slow-down in the residential real estate sector in certain of the Bank’s markets, resulting in increased foreclosures. The Bank recorded losses from the loans that were secured by these foreclosed properties in the allowance for credit losses at the time of foreclosure. The increase in non-accrual loans from September 30, 2009 to September 30, 2010 also reflected the effects of the prevailing economic environment on the Bank’s loan portfolio as a significant portion of the increase in the Bank’s NPLs was attributable to problems developing for established customers with real estate related loans, primarily in the Bank’s more urban markets. These problems resulted primarily from the decreased liquidity of certain borrowers and third party guarantors, as well as the declines in appraised real estate values for loans which became collateral dependent during the second and third quarters of 2010 and certain other borrower specific factors. Of the Bank’s real estate construction, acquisition and development loans, which totaled $1.3 billion at September 30, 2010, $501.9 million represented loans made by the Bank’s locations in Alabama and Tennessee, including the greater Memphis, Tennessee area, a portion of which is in northwest Mississippi. These areas have experienced a higher incidence of non-performing loans, primarily as a

47

result of a severe downturn in the housing market in these regions. Of the Company’s total non-performing loans of $409.4 million at September 30, 2010, $208.5 million, or 50.9%, were loans made within these markets. These markets continue to be affected by high inventories of unsold homes, unsold lots and undeveloped land intended for use as housing developments. The following table presents the Company’s non-performing loans by geographical location at September 30, 2010:

The ultimate impact of the economic downturn on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations will depend on its severity and duration. Continued weakness in the economy could adversely affect the Bank’s volume of NPLs. The Bank will continue to remain focused on early identification and effective resolution of potential credit problems. Loans identified as meeting the criteria set out in FASB ASC 310 are identified as troubled debt restructures. The concessions granted most frequently involve reductions or delays in required payments of principal and interest for a specified time, the rescheduling of payments in accordance with a bankruptcy plan or the charge-off of a portion of the loan. In most cases, the conditions of the credit also warrant non-accrual status, even after the restructure occurs. TDR loans may be returned to accrual status if there has been at least a six-month sustained period of repayment performance by the borrower. For reporting purposes, if a restructured loan is 90 days or more past due or has been placed in non-accrual status, the restructured loan is included in the loans 90 days or more past due category or the non-accrual loan category of NPAs. At September 30, 2010, restructured loans of $61.7 million were included in the non-accrual loan category.

At September 30, 2010, the Company did not have any concentration of loans or leases in excess of 10% of total loans and leases outstanding which were not otherwise disclosed as a category of loans or leases. Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to multiple borrowers engaged in similar activities which would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. The Bank conducts business in a geographically concentrated area and has a significant amount of loans secured by real estate to borrowers in varying activities and businesses, but does not consider these factors alone in identifying loan concentrations. The ability of the Bank’s borrowers to repay loans is somewhat dependent upon the economic conditions prevailing in the Bank’s market areas.

In the normal course of business, management becomes aware of possible credit problems in which borrowers exhibit potential for the inability to comply with the contractual terms of their loans and leases, but which do not yet meet the criteria for disclosure as non-performing loans and leases. Historically, some of these loans and leases are ultimately restructured or placed in non-accrual status. At September 30, 2010, the Bank had $23.0 million of potential problem loans or leases that were not included in the non-accrual loans and leases or in the loans 90 days or more past due categories, but for which management had concerns as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the contractual terms of their loans and leases.

Collateral for some of the Bank’s loans and leases is subject to fair value evaluations that fluctuate with market conditions and other external factors. In addition, while the Bank has certain underwriting obligations related to such evaluations, the evaluations of some real property and other collateral are dependent upon third-party independent appraisers employed either by the Bank’s customers or as independent contractors of the Bank. During

48

the current economic cycle, some subsequent fair value appraisals have reported lower values than were originally reported. These declining collateral values could impact future losses and recoveries.

Securities

The Company uses the Bank’s securities portfolios to make various term investments, to provide a source of liquidity and to serve as collateral to secure certain types of deposits. Held-to-maturity securities increased 31.5% to $1.4 billion at September 30, 2010, compared to $1.0 billion at December 31, 2009. Available-for-sale securities were $915.9 million at September 30, 2010, compared to $960.8 million at December 31, 2009, a 4.7% decrease.

The following table shows the held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities portfolios by credit rating as obtained from Moody’s rating service as of September 30, 2010:

Goodwill

The Company’s policy is to assess goodwill for impairment at the reporting segment level on an annual basis or sooner if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Accounting standards require management to estimate the fair value of each reporting segment in assessing impairment at least annually. The Company’s annual assessment date is during the Company’s fourth quarter. Because of the volatile market conditions during which the Company’s market value fell below book value, the Company performed a complete goodwill impairment analysis for all of its reporting segments during the third quarter. Based on this analysis, the estimated fair value of all of the Company’s reporting segments exceeded the respective carrying values. Therefore, no goodwill impairment was recorded. In the current environment, forecasting cash flows, credit losses and growth in addition to valuing the Company’s assets with any degree of assurance is very difficult and subject to significant changes over very short periods of time. Management will continue to update its analysis as circumstances change. As market conditions continue to be volatile and unpredictable, impairment of goodwill related to the Company’s reporting segments may be necessary in future periods. Goodwill was $270.1 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Deposits and Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities

Deposits originating within the communities served by the Bank continue to be the Bank’s primary source of funding its earning assets. The Company has been able to compete effectively for deposits in its primary market areas, while continuing to manage the exposure to rising interest rates. The distribution and market share of deposits by type of deposit and by type of depositor are important considerations in the Company’s assessment of the stability of its fund sources and its access to additional funds. Furthermore, management attempts to shift the mix and maturity of the deposits depending on economic conditions and within established loan and investment policies, to minimize cost and maximize net interest margin.

The Company’s noninterest-bearing, interest-bearing, savings and other time deposits are shown in the following table:

50

	September 30,		December 31,
	2010		2009		% Change
	(Dollars in millions)
Noninterest bearing demand	$	1,968	$	1,902		3.5	%
Interest bearing demand		4,623		4,324		6.9
Savings		801		725		10.5
Other time		3,805		3,727		2.1
Total deposits	$	11,197	$	10,678		4.9	%

The increase in deposits at September 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009 has been experienced broadly across all of the Company’s markets and is a result of the expansion of existing customer relationships and some new customer relationships.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

One of the Company’s goals is to provide adequate funds to meet increases in loan demand or any potential increase in the normal level of deposit withdrawals. The Company accomplishes this goal primarily by generating cash from the Bank’s operating activities and maintaining sufficient short-term liquid assets. These sources, coupled with a stable deposit base and a strong reputation in the capital markets, allow the Company to fund earning assets and maintain the availability of funds. Management believes that the Bank’s traditional sources of maturing loans and investment securities, sales of loans held for sale, cash from operating activities and a strong base of core deposits are adequate to meet the Company’s liquidity needs for normal operations over both the short-term and the long-term.

To provide additional liquidity, the Company utilizes short-term financing through the purchase of federal funds and securities sold under agreement to repurchase. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and are recorded at the amounts at which the securities were acquired or sold plus accrued interest. Further, the Company maintains a borrowing relationship with the FHLB which provides access to short-term and long-term borrowings. In addition, the Company also has access to the Federal Reserve discount window and other bank lines. The Company had short-term advances from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve totaling $152.7 million and $203.5 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company had federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase of $501.2 million and $539.9 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company had long-term advances totaling $110.0 million and $112.8 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company has pledged eligible mortgage loans to secure the FHLB borrowings and had $2.8 billion in additional borrowing capacity under the existing FHLB borrowing agreement at September 30, 2010.

If the Company’s traditional sources of liquidity were constrained, the Company would find it necessary to evaluate other avenues of funding not typically used by the Company and the Company’s net interest margin could be impacted negatively. The Company utilizes, among other tools, maturity gap tables, interest rate shock scenarios and an active Asset/Liability Committee to analyze, manage and plan asset growth and to assist in managing the Company’s net interest margin and overall level of liquidity. The Company does not anticipate any short- or long-term changes to its liquidity strategies.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into various off-balance sheet commitments and other arrangements to extend credit that are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company. The business purpose of these off-balance sheet commitments is the routine extension of credit. While most of the commitments to extend credit are made at variable rates, included in these commitments are forward commitments to fund individual fixed-rate mortgage loans. Fixed-rate lending commitments expose the Company to risks associated with increases in interest rates. As a method to manage these risks, the Company enters into forward commitments to sell individual fixed-rate mortgage loans. The Company also faces the risk of deteriorating credit

51

quality of borrowers to whom a commitment to extend credit has been made; however, no significant credit losses are expected from these commitments and arrangements.

Regulatory Requirements for Capital

The Company is required to comply with the risk-based capital guidelines established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. These guidelines apply a variety of weighting factors that vary according to the level of risk associated with the assets. Capital is measured in two “Tiers”: Tier I consists of common shareholders’ equity and qualifying non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets; and Tier II consists of general allowance for losses on loans and leases, “hybrid” debt capital instruments and all or a portion of other subordinated capital debt, depending upon remaining term to maturity. Total capital is the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital. The required minimum ratio levels to be considered adequately capitalized for the Company’s Tier I capital, total capital, as a percentage of total risk-adjusted assets, and Tier I leverage capital (Tier I capital divided by total assets, less goodwill) are 4%, 8% and 4%, respectively. The Company exceeded the required minimum levels for these ratios at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 as follows:

	September 30, 2010					December 31, 2009
	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
	(Dollars in thousands)
BancorpSouth, Inc.
Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets)	$	1,074,755		10.56	%	$	1,143,019		11.17	%
Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)		1,202,966		11.82			1,271,634		12.42
Tier I leverage capital (to average assets)		1,074,755		8.26			1,143,019		8.95

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s capital-based supervisory system for insured financial institutions categorizes the capital position for banks into five categories, ranging from “well capitalized” to “critically undercapitalized.” For a bank to be classified as “well capitalized,” the Tier I capital, total capital and leverage capital ratios must be at least 6%, 10% and 5%, respectively. The Bank met the criteria for the “well capitalized” category at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 as follows:

	September 30, 2010					December 31, 2009
	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
	(Dollars in thousands)
BancorpSouth Bank
Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets)	$	1,046,429		10.30	%	$	1,119,612		10.95	%
Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)		1,174,640		11.56			1,248,227		12.21
Tier I leverage capital (to average assets)		1,046,429		8.07			1,119,612		8.79

There are various legal and regulatory limits on the extent to which the Bank may pay dividends or otherwise supply funds to the Company. In addition, federal and state regulatory agencies have the authority to prevent a bank, bank holding company or financial holding company from paying a dividend or engaging in any other activity that, in the opinion of the agency, would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. Management does not expect these limitations to cause a material adverse effect with regard to the Company’s ability to meet its cash obligations.

Uses of Capital

The Company may pursue acquisitions of depository institutions and businesses closely related to banking that further the Company’s business strategies, including FDIC-assisted transactions. The Company anticipates that consideration for any transactions other than FDIC-assisted transactions would include shares of the Company’s common stock, cash or a combination thereof.

On March 21, 2007, the Company announced a new stock repurchase program whereby the Company may acquire up to three million shares of its common stock in the open market at prevailing market prices or in privately

52

negotiated transactions during the period from May 1, 2007 through April 30, 2009. The original expiration date for this stock repurchase program has been extended until April 30, 2011. The extent and timing of any repurchases will depend on market conditions and other corporate considerations. Repurchased shares will be held as authorized but unissued shares. These authorized but unissued shares will be available for use in connection with the Company’s stock option plans, other compensation programs, other transactions or for other general corporate purposes as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. At September 30, 2010, 460,700 shares had been repurchased under this program, but the Company has not repurchased any shares of its common stock since March 2008. The Company will continue to evaluate additional share repurchases under this repurchase program and will evaluate whether to adopt a new stock repurchase program before the current program expires. The Company conducts its stock repurchase program by using funds received in the ordinary course of business. The Company has not experienced, and does not expect to experience, a material adverse effect on its capital resources or liquidity in connection with its stock repurchase program.

Certain Litigation Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in lines of business that are heavily regulated and involve a large volume of financial transactions with numerous customers through offices in nine states. Although the Company and its subsidiaries have developed policies and procedures to minimize the impact of legal non-compliance and disputes, litigation presents an ongoing risk.

The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various lawsuits, including the litigation discussed below and claims arising out of the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims are against entities of which the Company is a successor as a result of business combinations. Management of the Company evaluates lawsuits based on information currently available, including advice of counsel and assessment of available insurance coverage. Management is currently of the opinion that the ultimate resolution or financial liability with respect to pending lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position or results of operations. Litigation is, however, inherently uncertain, and management cannot provide any assurance that the Company and/or its subsidiaries will prevail in any of these actions, nor can management estimate with reasonable certainty the amount of damages that the Company or any of its subsidiaries might incur.

On May 12, 2010, the Company and its Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer were named in a purported class-action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on behalf of certain purchasers of the Company’s common stock. On September 17, 2010, an Executive Vice President of the Company was added as a party to the lawsuit. The amended complaint alleges that the defendants issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business and financial results. The plaintiff seeks class certification, an unspecified amount of damages and awards of costs and attorneys’ fees and such other equitable relief as the Court may deem just and proper. No class has been certified and, at this stage of the lawsuit, management cannot determine the probability of an unfavorable outcome to the Company. Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate resolution or financial liability with respect to this litigation, management is currently of the opinion that the outcome of this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position or results of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, there was no significant change in the Company’s critical accounting policies and no significant change in the application of critical accounting policies as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, there were no significant changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except for the remediation efforts management commenced in the first quarter and continued in the second and third quarters of 2010 related to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified as of December 31, 2009 and reported on in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Following management’s determination of the material weakness, management promptly began taking the following remedial actions:

• The creation of a real estate risk management group to oversee full compliance with laws, regulations and U.S. GAAP related to lending activities;

• Testing of significant loans, with a focus on higher risk loans, for impairment on a quarterly basis;

• Reporting by management to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis regarding significant problem loans and potentially problematic portfolios; and

• The commitment of additional resources to the Bank’s appraisal group, as necessary, for compliance with appraisal policies and procedures.

Management anticipates that these remedial actions will strengthen the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and will, over time, address the material weakness that was identified as of December 31, 2009. Because some of these remedial actions will take place on a quarterly basis, their successful implementation may need to be evaluated over several quarters before management is able to conclude that the material weakness has been remediated. The Company cannot provide any assurance that these remediation efforts will be successful or that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2010, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation and the identification of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reporting within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission rules and forms.
