Item 1 Description of Business
Here and after BOL Bancshares, Inc. shall be referred to as the Company and subsidiary Bank of Louisiana shall be referred to as the Bank.
History and General Business
The Company was organized as a Louisiana corporation on May 7, 1981, for the purpose of becoming a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The Company remained inactive until April 29, 1988, when it acquired the Bank in a three-bank merger of the Bank of Louisiana in New Orleans (the “Old Bank”), Bank of the South (“South Bank”), and Fidelity Bank & Trust Company, all Louisiana state-chartered banks. The Old Bank was the surviving bank in the merger and subsequently changed its name to the Bank’s current name. The merger was originally accounted for as a “purchase”, but after discussions with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the accounting treatment of the merger was changed to a manner similar to a “pooling of interests”. [Since the change in accounting treatment, the Company has recast its financial statements, to reflect “pooling” accounting.] In addition, at the time of the bank’s merger, the Company merged with BOS Bancshares, Inc., a Louisiana corporation, and the registered bank holding company for South Bank. The Company was the surviving entity in that merger. The Company is the sole shareholder and registered bank holding company of the Bank.
Other than owning and operating the Bank, the Company may also engage, directly or through subsidiary corporations, in those activities closely related to banking that are specifically permitted under the BHC Act. See “Supervision and Regulation Enforcement Action”. The Company, after acquiring the requisite approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”) and any other appropriate regulatory agency, may seek to engagedenovo in such activities or to acquire companies already engaged in such activities. The Bank has formed BOL Assets, LLC to engage in the permissible activity of holding real estate from loans which were in default and held past the FDIC’s time limits. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not form or acquire any other entity in the future.
If the Company attempts to form or acquire other entities and engage in activities closely related to banking, the Company will be competing with other bank holding companies and companies currently engaged in the line of business or permissible activity in which the Company might engage, many of which have far greater assets and financial resources than the Company and a greater capacity to raise additional debt and equity capital. See “Territory Served and Competition”.
Forward-Looking Statements are Subject to Change
We make certain statements in this document as to what we expect may happen in the future. These statements usually contain the words “believe”, “estimate”, “project”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend” or similar expressions. Because these statements look to the future, they are based on our current expectations and beliefs. Actual results or events may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. You should be aware that our current expectations and beliefs as to future events are subject to change at any time, and we can give no assurances that the future events will actually occur.
Critical Accounting Policies
In reviewing and understanding financial information of the Company, you are encouraged to read and understand the significant accounting policies used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. These policies are described in Note A of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K. Our accounting and financial reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements require certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions, which are believed to be reasonable, based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the periods presented. The following policies comprise those that management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These policies require numerous estimates or economic assumptions that may prove inaccurate or may be subject to variations which may significantly affect our reported results and financial condition for the period or in future periods.
Allowance for Loan Losses.
It is the Bank’s policy to maintain a loan loss reserve that is appropriate when compared to the quality of our loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses on a periodic basis in order to identify those inherent losses and to assess the overall collection probability of the loan portfolio. The evaluation process includes, among other things, an analysis of delinquency trends, non-performing loan trends, the level of charge-offs and recoveries, prior loss experience, total loans outstanding, the volume of loan originations, the type, size and geographic concentration of our loans, the value of collateral securing the loan, the borrower’s ability to repay and repayment performance, the number of loans requiring heightened management oversight, local economic conditions and industry experience. From this analysis, a general, specific and unallocated reserve is established, which totals the allowance for loan losses at each reporting date. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely.
Banking Industry
The Company derives its revenues largely from dividends from the Bank when the Bank upstreams dividends. As is the case with any financial institution, the profitability of the Bank is subject, among other things, to fluctuating availability of money, loan demand, changes in interest rates, actions of fiscal and monetary authorities, and economic conditions in general. See “Banking Products and Services”, “Supervision and Regulation Enforcement Action”, and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis”.
Banking Products and Services
The Bank is a full service commercial bank that provides a wide range of banking services for its customers. Some of the major services that it offers include checking accounts, negotiable order of withdrawal (“NOW”) accounts, individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), savings and other time deposits of various types, and business, real-estate, personal use, home improvement, automobile, and a variety of other loans, as discussed more fully below. Other services include letters of credit, safe deposit boxes, credit cards, wire transfer, e-banking, night deposit, and drive-in facilities. Prices and rates charged for services offered are competitive with the area’s existing financial institutions in the Bank’s primary market area.
The Bank offers a wide variety of fixed and variable rate loans to qualified borrowers. With regard to interest rates, the Bank continues to meet legal standards while remaining competitive with the existing financial institutions in its market area. The specific types of loans that the Bank offers include the following:
Consumer Loans. The Bank’s consumer loans consist of automobile, mobile home, recreational vehicle, and boat loans; home improvement and second-mortgage loans; secured and unsecured personal expense loans; and educational loans.
Real Estate Loans. The Bank’s real estate loans consist of residential first and second mortgage loans on one-to-four family homes; construction and development loans; multiple dwelling unit loans; housing rehabilitation loans; loans to purchase developed real property; and commercial real estate loans.
Commercial Loans (Secured and Unsecured). The Bank’s commercial loans consist of working capital loans, secured and unsecured lines of credit, and small equipment loans.
Credit Cards. The Bank offers a variety of nationally recognized credit cards, in addition to its own Mr. Bol credit card, and private label credit cards for use at retail establishments nationwide. As of December 31, 2011 the Bank held $6,039,000 in credit card debt.
The Bank has a number of proprietary accounts it services which is included above. These accounts consist largely of small to medium sized merchants who have issued their own private-label credit cards. The Bank acquires these credit card accounts, typically with reserves posted, and requires the merchant to repurchase accounts 180 days or more past due.
As of December 31, 2011 the Bank held $283,000 in proprietary accounts.
Territory Served and Competition
Market Area. The market area for the Bank is defined in the Bank’s Community Reinvestment Act Statement as the greater New Orleans metropolitan area. This area includes all of the City of New Orleans and surrounding Parishes. The Bank has branch offices in Orleans, Jefferson, and St. Tammany Parishes.
Population. The U.S. Census Bureau’s latest count on the population of New Orleans stands at 343,829 residents. About 1.17 million residents were counted in 2010 in the seven-parish metropolitan area.
Competition. The Bank competes with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, and other types of financial services providers in the New Orleans metropolitan area. The Bank is one of the smallest commercial banks in New Orleans in terms of assets and deposits.
Economy. While there is still a long way to go, considerable progress is being made towards New Orleans region’s gradual economic recovery in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the BP oil spill thanks to the convergence of a number of factors; education reform, an influx of young entrepreneurial talent, a motivated labor force and a business-friendly government. Governmental agencies and coalitions have crafted and embraced comprehensive plans for rebuilding New Orleans and its surrounding parishes for the near, medium and long term. Our communities and citizens are working hard to make a solid come-back. Our vision is one of a more livable, sustainable and safer future for New Orleans, which will include all the rich cultural and architectural heritage that has made the region so beloved to natives and visitors alike.
The recession in the broader economy could have an adverse effect on Bank of Louisiana’s financial condition. Recessionary conditions and a subsequent period of slow recovery in the broader economy could adversely affect the financial capacity of businesses and individuals in our market area. These conditions could, among other consequences, increase the credit risk inherent in the current loan portfolio, restrain new loan demand from creditworthy borrowers, prompt the Bank to tighten its underwriting criteria and reduce liquidity in the Bank’s customer base and the level of deposits that they maintain. These economic conditions could also delay the correction of the imbalance of supply and demand in certain real estate markets. Legislative and regulatory actions taken in response to these conditions could impose additional restrictions and requirements on the Bank. The current and further deterioration in the residential construction and commercial real estate markets may lead to increased nonperforming assets in Bank of Louisiana’s portfolio and increased provisions for losses on loans, which could have a material adverse effect on our capital, financial condition and results of operation.
Employees. As of December 31, 2011, the Bank had 59 full-time and approximately 7 part-time employees, including executive officers, loan and other banking officers, branch personnel, operations personnel and other support personnel. The Bank considers its relationship with its employees to be very good. The employee benefit programs provided by the Bank include group life and health insurance, paid vacations, sick leave, and a Section 401(k) savings plan. The Company has no employees who are not employees of the Bank. See “Executive Compensation”.

Item 6 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide a better understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of BOL Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) and its bank subsidiary, (the “Bank”) for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, related notes, and selected financial data appearing elsewhere in this report.
This discussion may contain certain forward-looking statements, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, Catastrophic Events, and Future Growth
Management considers interest rate risk to be a market risk that could have a significant effect on the financial condition of the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results. Difficult conditions in the financial services markets may materially and adversely affect the business and results of operations of the Bank and the Company.
Dramatic declines in the housing market during the past years, along with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures and unemployment, have resulted in significant write downs of asset values by financial institutions, including government-sponsored entities and major commercial and investment banks. These write-downs, initially of mortgage-backed securities by spreading to credit default swaps and other derivative securities, have caused many financial institutions to seek additional capital, to merge with larger and stronger institutions, and, in some cases, to fail. Many lenders and institutional investors have reduced, and in some cases, ceased to provide funding to borrowers, including other financial institutions. This market turmoil and tightening of credit have led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies, lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility, and widespread reduction of business activity generally, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. A worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate any adverse effects of these difficult market conditions on us and others in the financial institutions industry. As a rule however, the majority of small community banks, such as Bank of Louisiana, have strong reserve positions and are well capitalized.
The occurrence of catastrophic events such as hurricanes, tropical storms, earthquakes, windstorms, floods, severe winter weather, fires and other catastrophes could adversely affect our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. Unpredictable natural and other disasters could have an adverse effect on us in that such events could materially disrupt our operations or the ability or willingness of our customers to access financial services offered by us. The incidence and severity of catastrophic events could nevertheless reduce our earnings and cause volatility in our financial results for any fiscal quarter or year and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operation.
The Company is a customer-focused organization. Future growth is expected to be driven in a large part by the relationships maintained with customers. While the Company has assembled an experienced management team, and has management development plans in place, the unexpected loss of key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and may result in lower revenues.
Overview
The Company provides a full range of quality financial services in selected market areas. As of December 31, 2011, the Company’s total assets were $91,717,000 as compared to $94,340,000 at December 31, 2010.
Loans comprise the largest single component of the Bank’s interest-earning assets and provide a far more favorable return than other categories of earnings assets. The Bank’s loans totaled $54,381,000, and $60,201,000 net of unearned discount, deferred loan fees, and Allowance for Loan Losses at December 31, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The Bank’s net interest margin was 6.64% for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 6.87% for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Historically, credit card loans have been an important part of the Bank’s total loan portfolio. However, the Bank has been diversifying its earning assets into commercial and installment loans. At December 31, 2011, credit card loans were $6,039,000 and represented 11.10% of the Bank’s net loan portfolio of $54,381,000. At December 31, 2010, credit card loans were $6,321,000 and represented 10.49% of the Bank’s loan portfolio of $60,201,000.
The Bank’s current strategy is to continue to grow its traditional banking operations primarily in the metropolitan New Orleans area and to expand its proprietary accounts, so long as it can maintain the minimum required Tier 1 leverage ratio required. The Bank focuses on providing its customers with the financial sophistication and breadth of products of a regional bank while successfully retaining the local appeal and level of service of a community bank.
Results of Operations
Net Income - December 31, 2011 Compared to December 31, 2010.
The Company’s net income for the year 2011 was $74,000, or $0.42 per share, a decrease of $225,000, or a decrease of $1.25 per share from the Company’s net income of $299,000 in 2010.
Net interest income which is total interest income (including fees) less total interest expense was $5,366,000 in 2011 compared to $5,619,000 in 2010.
Interest on earning assets decreased $275,000 from $6,067,000 in 2010 to $5,792,000 in 2011. Interest income on investment securities decreased $7,000 from $15,000 earned in 2010 to $8,000 in 2011. This interest decrease was due to the average amount invested in securities from $2,036,000 in 2010 down to $913,000 in 2011. Interest income generated by the loan portfolio decreased a total of $244,000 from $5,976,000 in 2010 to $5,732,000 in 2011, due to a decrease in the decrease in rates charged from 9.77% in 2010 to 9.66% charged in 2011. Federal funds interest income decreased by $3,000 and interest income earned on certificates of deposit decreased by $21,000 due to falling average rates from 1.17% in 2010 to 0.77% in 2011.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $21,000 from $373,000 in 2010 to $352,000 in 2011. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the average rates paid on deposits from an average rate of 0.78% in 2010 to 0.74% in 2011, even with an increase in the average balance of interest bearing deposits from $46,936,000 in 2010 to $47,821,000 in 2011.
The provision for loan losses decreased $225,000 from $305,000 in 2010 to $80,000 in 2011. In 2011 Personal loans ended with a net charge-off of $2,727; Real Estate loans had a net recovery of $39,206; Commercial loans had a charge-off of $15,959; Overdrafts had a net charge-off of $5,514, and Credit cards with a net charge-off of $94,945.
Non-interest income decreased $471,000 from $1,486,000 in 2010 to $1,015,000 in 2011. This decrease was due to decreases in gains on sale of ORE, which amounted to $395,000 in 2010 and $16,000 for 2011, and a decrease of $11,000 in Service Charges, Membership fees and Other commissions and fees, a decrease in Cardholder & Other Credit Card Income of $16,000, and a decrease in other income of $73,000. These decreases were offset by an increase in rental income from Other Real Estate of $9,000.
Non-interest expense decreased $389,000. The major components were a decrease of $243,000 in Salaries and Employee Benefits, due primarily in the reduction of salaries and part-time wages, a decrease in Occupancy Expense of $143,000 due primarily to lower depreciation taken on equipment, a decrease in Outsourcing Fees of $21,000 and a decrease in ORE Expense of $78,000. The primary offset to the decreases were increases in Communications of $11,000, Loan & Credit Card Expense of $3,000, Professional fees of $18,000 and an increase in Other Operating Expense of $64,000.
The Company recognized income tax expense of $38,000 for 2011, as compared to an income tax benefit of $76,000 for 2010. The income tax benefit for 2010 was a result of an increase in the Company’s dividend received deduction, as well as adjustments to the Company’s current and deferred income tax liability accounts.
Net Income - December 31, 2010 Compared to December 31, 2009
The Company’s net income for the year 2010 was $299,000 or $1.67 per share, an increase of $164,000, or an increase of $0.92 per share from the Company’s net income of $135,000 in 2009.
Net interest income which is total interest income (including fees) less total interest expense was $5,619,000 in 2010 compared to $5,627,000 in 2009.
Interest on earning assets decreased $44,000 from $6,111,000 in 2009 to $6,067,000 in 2010. Interest income on investment securities decreased $19,000 from $34,000 earned in 2009 to $15,000 in 2010. This interest decrease was due to the yields derived on security investments falling from an average of 1.35% received in 2009 to an average interest rate of 0.72% in 2010. In addition, due to the falling rates, the Bank reduced the average amount invested in securities from $2,510,000 in 2009 down to $2,036,000 in 2010, until such time as the market improves. Interest income generated by the loan portfolio decreased a total of $18,000 from $5,994,000 in 2009 to $5,976,000 in 2010, due to the decrease in rates charged from 10.09% in 2009 to 9.77% charged in 2010. Federal funds interest income decreased by $5,000 and interest income on certificates of deposit decreased by $3,000.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $18,000 from $391,000 in 2009 to $373,000 in 2010. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the average rates paid on deposits from an average rate of 0.87% in 2009 to 0.78% in 2010, even with an increase in the average balance of interest bearing deposits from $44,654,000 in 2009 to $44,936,000 in 2010.
The provision for loan losses decreased $231,000 from $536,000 in 2009 to $305,000 in 2010. In 2010 Personal loans ended with a net charge-off of $7,000, Real Estate loans had a net charge-off of $3,000, Commercial loans had a net recovery of $25,000, Overdrafts had a net charge-off of $14,000 and Credit cards with a net charge-off of $306,000.
Non-interest income decreased $503,000 from $1,989,000 in 2009 to $1,486,000 in 2010. This decrease was due to a mix of a decrease in Other income of $929,000 due primarily to Katrina insurance proceeds remaining and taken into income in 2009 and a decrease of $15,000 in Cardholder income, Membership fees and Other commissions and fees. The overall decrease was offset by an increase in Service charges on deposit accounts of $50,000 and a net increase of $385,000 on income from ORE pertaining to the sale of three lots on Morrison Road.
Non-interest expense decreased $291,000 from 2009 to 2010. The major components were a decrease of $150,000 in Salaries and Employee Benefits, a decrease in Insurance and Assessments of $44,000, and a decrease in Other operating expenses of $364,000. The primary offset to the decreases were an increase in the maintenance, repairs and upkeep of ORE properties of $203,000, an increase in Professional fees of $30,000, an increase in Outsourcing fees of $30,000, and an increase in Occupancy expense of $20,000.
The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $76,000 for 2010, as compared to income tax expense of $77,000 for 2009. The income tax benefit for 2010 was a result of an increase in the Company’s dividend received deduction, as well as adjustments to the Company’s current and deferred income tax liability accounts.

Interest Sensitivity Gap Analysis
The major elements management utilizes monthly to manage interest rate risk include the mix of fixed and variable rate assets and liabilities and the maturity pattern of assets and liabilities. It is the Bank’s policy not to invest in derivatives in the ordinary course of business. The Bank performs a quarterly review of assets and liabilities that reprice and the time bands within which the repricing occurs. Balances are reported in the time band that corresponds to the instruments’ next repricing date or contractual maturity, whichever occurs first. Through such analysis, the Bank monitors and manages its interest sensitivity gap to minimize the effects of changing interest rates.
The interest rate sensitivity structure within the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2011, has a net interest sensitive asset gap of 23.37% when projecting out one year. In the near term, defined as 90 days, the Company currently has a net interest sensitive liability gap of -1.46%. The information represents a general indication of repricing characteristics over time; however, the sensitivity of certain deposit products may vary during extreme swings in the interest rate cycle. Since all interest rates and yields do not adjust at the same velocity, the interest rate sensitivity gap is only a general indicator of the potential effects of interest rate changes on net interest income.
The following table illustrates the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity analysis at December 31, 2011, as well as the cumulative position at December 31, 2011:

Provision for Loan Losses
Management’s policy is to maintain the allowance for possible loan losses at a level sufficient to absorb estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Management’s evaluation process to determine losses includes consideration of the industry, specific conditions of individual borrowers, historical loan loss experience, and the general economic environment. As these factors change, the level of loan loss provision changes.
At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 the allowance for possible loan losses was $1,800,000. In 2011, the provision for loan losses was $80,000 compared to $305,000 in 2010. Net charge-offs were $80,000 in 2011 compared to $305,000 in 2010. Based on the volume of credit card charges and payments, the credit card portfolio turns over every eight to nine months, requiring a provision to loan loss allowance less than annual charge-offs due to recoveries being contemporaneously made.

Non-interest Income
An important source of the Company’s revenue is derived from non-interest income.
For the year 2011 non-interest income decreased $471,000. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in gains on the sale of Other Real Estate, which amounted to $395,000 in 2010 and $16,000 in 2011. Other decreases included an $11,000 decrease in Service Charges, Membership Fees and Other commissions and fees, a decrease in Cardholder & Other Credit Card Income of $16,000, and a decrease in other income of $73,000. These decreases were offset by an increase in rental income from Other Real Estate of $9,000.
Non-interest income decreased $503,000 from $1,989,000 in 2009 to $1,486,000 in 2010. This decrease was due to a mix of a decrease in Other income of $929,000 due primarily to Katrina insurance proceeds remaining and taken into income in 2009 and a decrease of $15,000 in Cardholder income, Membership fees and Other commissions and fees. The overall decrease was offset by an increase in Service charges on deposit accounts of $50,000 and a net increase of $385,000 on income from ORE pertaining to the sale of three lots on Morrison Road.
The following table sets forth the major components of non-interest income for the last two years.

Non-interest Expense
The major categories of non-interest expense include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses and other operating costs associated with the day-to-day operations of the Company.
For the year 2011 non-interest expense decreased $389,000. The major components were a decrease of $243,000 in Salaries and Employee Benefits due mainly to a reduction in salaries and part-time wages, a decrease in Occupancy Expense of $143,000 due to lower depreciation expenses on equipment, a decrease in Outsourcing Fees of $21,000, a decrease in ORE Expenses of $78,000. The primary offset to the decreases were an increase in Loan & Credit Card Expense of $3,000, Communications of $11,000, Stationery, Forms & Supply of $5,000, Professional fees of $18,000, Insurance & Assessments of $21,000, Advertising Expense of $1,000, Miscellaneous Losses of $3,000, Promotional Expenses of $1,000, and Other Expenses of $35,000.
For the year 2010 non-interest expense decrease $291,000. The major components were a decrease of $150,000 in Salaries and Employee Benefits, a decrease in Insurance and Assessments of $44,000, a decrease in other operating expenses of $364,000. The primary offset to the decreases were an increase in maintenance, repairs and upkeep of ORE properties of $203,000, an increase in Professional fees of $30,000, an increase in Outsourcing fees of $30,000, and an increase in Occupancy expense of $20,000.

Provision for Income Taxes
The Company recognized an income tax liability of $ 38,000 for 2011, as compared to an income tax benefit of $76,000 for 2010.
Financial Condition
The Bank manages its assets and liabilities to maximize long-term earnings opportunities while maintaining the integrity of its financial position and the quality of earnings. To accomplish this objective, management strives to effect efficient management of interest rate risk and liquidity needs. The primary objectives of interest-sensitivity management are to minimize the effect of interest rate changes on the net interest margin and to manage the exposure to risk while maintaining net interest income at acceptable levels. Liquidity is provided by carefully structuring the balance sheet. The Bank’s asset liability committee meets regularly to review both the interest rate sensitivity position and liquidity.
Liquidity
The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure that there is sufficient cash flow to satisfy demands for credit, deposit withdrawals, and other corporate needs. Traditional sources of liquidity include asset maturities and growth in core deposits. These are sources of liquidity that the Bank has not fully utilized. The Bank, nevertheless, has maintained adequate liquidity through the sale of federal funds. Traditionally, liquidity sources for the Bank are generated from operating activities and financing activities.
Net cash from operating activities primarily results from net income adjusted for the following non-cash items: the provision for loan losses; depreciation and amortization; fair value adjustments on foreclosed property; and deferred income taxes or benefits.
Significant financing activities generally include core deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and long-term debt. The Bank anticipates capital needs will be met from the growth in retained earnings.
During 2011, deposits decreased $2,897,000, or 3.60%, from $80,577,000 at December 31, 2010 to $77,680,000 at December 31, 2011. Short term investments and other marketable assets increased, resulting in a slight increase in liquidity.
The Bank has unused sources of liquidity in the form of unused federal funds lines of $4,400,000 from a correspondent bank, and borrowing availability from the FRB discount window equal to the Bank’s principal amount of unpledged investment securities. The Bank manages asset and liability growth through pricing strategies within regulatory capital constraints. Management believes that its core deposit strength minimizes the risk of deposit runoff.
Loans
The loan portfolio is the largest category of the Bank’s earning assets. The following table summarizes the composition of the loan portfolio for the last two years:

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Bank’s recorded investment in loans that are considered impaired, which consists of substandard loans, non-accrual loans and restructured loans (TDRs), totaled $4,184,000 and $5,072,000, respectively.
Non-performing Assets
Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual and restructured loans and other real estate owned. Non-accrual loans are loans on which the interest accruals have been discontinued when it appears that future collection of principal or interest according to the contractual terms may be doubtful. Interest on these loans is reported on the cash basis as received when the full recovery of principal is anticipated or after full principal has been recovered when collection of interest is in question. Restructured loans are those loans whose terms have been modified, because of economic or legal reasons related to the debtors’ financial difficulties, to provide for a reduction in principal, change in terms, or fixing of interest rates at below market levels. Other real estate owned is real property acquired by foreclosure or deed taken in lieu of foreclosure.
Non-performing assets at December 31, 2011 were $8,581,000 and $5,413,000 at December 31, 2010. During 2011, non-accrual loans decreased by $981,000 and other real estate owned increased $1,460,000 due to foreclosure on loans which defaulted. At December 31, 2011 restructured loans totaled $2,688,000.
The ratio of past due loans, exclusive of non-accrual loans, to total loans has increased from 3.05% at December 31, 2010 to 4.80% at December 31, 2011. During that time, the Bank increased its ratio of non-performing assets to loans and other real estate owned from 8.31% at December 31, 2010, to 14.11% at December 31, 2011. The allowance for possible loan losses as a percent of net period-end loans increased to 3.31% at December 31, 2011, compared to 2.99% at December 31, 2010. Management believes the allowance for possible loan losses is adequate to provide for losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
When a loan is classified as non-accrual, previously accrued interest is reversed and interest income is decreased to the extent of all interest accrued in the current year. If any portion of the accrued interest had been accrued in the previous years, accrued interest is decreased and a charge for that amount is made to the allowance for possible loan losses. The gross amount of interest income that would have been recorded on non-accrual loans, if all such loans had been accruing interest at the original contract rate, at December 31, 2011 was $125,000 compared to $222,000 at December 31, 2010.

Allocation of Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
Allocation of the allowance for loan losses is based primarily on previous credit loss experience, adjusted for changes in the risk characteristics of each category. Additional amounts are allocated based on the evaluation of the loss potential of individual troubled loans and the anticipated effect of economic conditions on both individual loans and loan categories. Since the allocation is based on estimates and subjective judgment, it is not necessarily indicative of the specific amounts of loan categories in which losses may ultimately occur.
Approved credit card accounts are reviewed on a monthly basis to assure compliance with the Bank’s credit policy. Review procedures include determination that the appropriate verification process has been completed, recalculation of the borrower’s debt ratio, and analyses of the borrower’s credit history to determine if it meets established Bank criteria. Policy exceptions are carefully analyzed monthly. Delinquent accounts are monitored daily and charged off before 180 days, which is the industry standard. Prior to charge-off, interest on credit card loans continue to accrue. A monthly provision for credit card losses is included in the Bank’s overall provision for loan losses.

Investment Securities
The Company’s investment portfolio policy is to maximize income consistent with liquidity, asset quality, regulatory constraints, and asset/liability objectives. The Bank’s Board of Directors reviews such policy not less than annually. The levels of taxable and tax-exempt securities and short-term investments reflect the Company’s strategy of maximizing portfolio yields while providing for liquidity needs. Investment securities totaled $1,037,000 at December 31, 2011, and $878,000 at December 31, 2010. In addition, the Company had certificates of deposit with other institutions totaling $5,458,000 and $4,203,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The average maturity of certificates of deposit held with other institutions was one year or less at December 31, 2011. At year-end 2011 and 2010, all of the Company’s investment securities were classified as available-for-sale. The gross unrealized holding gains on these securities at December 31, 2011 were $735,000 and $576,000 at December 31, 2010.
There were no investments and no obligations of any one state or municipality at December 31, 2011, or 2010.
At December 31, 2011, and 2010 the Bank had no U.S. Treasury securities or obligations of U. S. government corporations or federal agencies, as available for sale.

Deposits
Total deposits at December 31, 2011 were $77,680,000 which represented a decrease of $2,897,000, or 3.60%, from $80,577,000 at December 31, 2010. During 2011, interest bearing deposits decreased by $1,756,000. Core deposits, the Bank’s largest source of funding, consist of all interest bearing and non-interest bearing deposits except certificates of deposits over $100,000. Core deposits are obtained from a broad range of customers. Average core deposits decreased $329,000, or .43%, to $75,827,000 from $76,156,000 in 2010. Average market rate core deposits, primarily CD’s of less than $100,000 and money market accounts, increased $2,379,000 from $11,630,000 in 2010 to $14,009,000 in 2011.
Non-interest bearing deposits are comprised of business accounts, including correspondent bank accounts, escrow deposits, as well as individual accounts. Average non-interest bearing demand deposits represented 40.53% of average core deposits in 2011 compared to 42.38% in 2010.

Other Assets and Other Liabilities
Other Assets decreased $349,000 in 2011, due primarily to the decrease in prepaid FDIC assessments. During 2009 the FDIC required institutions to prepay three years worth of assessments. Accounts receivable’s decrease from 2010 to 2011 is primarily due to a deposit made with Visa and Mastercard of $150,000 in 2010 to cover the day to day credit card settlement for Friday, December 31st in lieu of New Years Day that fell on a Saturday and the Federal Reserve Bank was open for business.
Other Liabilities had an increased of $99,000 in 2011. This increase was due primarily to an overall increase of Accrued Expenses of $114,000 and offset by a decrease of $10,000 in the Bank’s Blanket Bond Fund.

Borrowings
The Company’s long-term debt is comprised primarily of debentures which will be due July 5, 2012 totaling $1,000,000. Each $500 debenture is secured by a pledge of 71.50 shares of the Bank’s stock.
The Bank has no long-term debt. It is the Bank’s policy to manage its liquidity so that there is no need to make unplanned sales of assets or to borrow funds under emergency conditions. The Bank maintains a Federal Funds line of credit in the amount of $4,400,000 with a correspondent bank. The Bank can borrow the amount of unpledged securities at the discount window at the Federal Reserve Bank by pledging those securities.
Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2011 was $11,941,000, an increase of $168,000, or 1.43%, from $11,773,000 at December 31, 2010, and amounted to 13.02% of total assets. Realized shareholders’ equity which includes preferred and common stock, capital in excess of par, and retained earnings increased $64,000, or 0.57%, to $11,323,000 at December 31, 2011 from $11,259,000 at December 31, 2010.
During 2011, the increase in shareholder’s equity was primarily attributable to net income of $74,000, partially offset by a decrease in Preferred Stock of $13,000, and an increase in capital in excess of par-retired Preferred Stock of $3,000. In addition, there was an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is used to refer to revenues, expenses, gains, and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from net income, in the amount of $105,000.
No dividends were paid on shares of Company Common Stock in 2011 or 2010.
The Company maintains an adequate capital position that exceeds all minimum regulatory capital requirements. The Company’s internal capital growth rate (net income less dividends declared as a percentage of total shareholders’ equity) for 2011 was 0.62% compared to 2.54% in 2010. The ratio of average shareholders’ equity to average assets was 12.88% and 12.66% in 2011 and 2010, respectively.
At December 31, 2011, the Company’s primary capital ratio as defined by the FRB was 13.32%, compared to 13.59% in 2010. The total capital ratio was 13.32% at December 31, 2011, and 13.59% in 2010, compared to the guidelines, which mandate a minimum primary capital ratio of 5.50% and total capital ratio of 6.00% for bank holding companies and banks.
The Bank’s leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total assets) at December 31, 2011, was 13.49% compared to 12.83% at December 31, 2010, which are compared to the minimum capital requirement of 4.00% for well-managed Banking organizations.
The Bank’s ratios are in excess of the regulatory requirements, as indicated in the Capital Adequacy schedule below:

Excess | 8,575 | 9.49% | 8,325 | 8.83% |
Dividends that may be paid by the Bank to the Company are subject to certain regulatory limitations. Under Louisiana banking law, the approval of the OFI will be required if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year by the Bank exceed the Bank’s net profits to date and retained net profits for the year in which such dividend is declared and the immediately preceding year, subject to maintenance of minimum required regulatory capital.
Supervision and Regulation Enforcement Action
Bank Holding Company Regulation
Federal
The Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the BHC Act, and is registered with the FRB. It is required to file annual reports with the FRB and such additional information as the FRB may require pursuant to the BHC Act. The FRB may also perform periodic examinations of the Company and its subsidiaries. The following summary of the BHC Act and of the other acts described herein is qualified in its entirety by express reference to each of the particular acts.
The BHC Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the FRB before acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any bank which is already not majority owned by the Company. The BHC Act prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting shares of any company which is not a bank and from engaging in any business other than banking or furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries. The 5% limitation is not applicable to ownership of shares in any company the activities of which the FRB has determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. As set forth below, however, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act of 1999, enacted on November 12, 1999, broadens the ability of a bank holding company to own or control companies other than banks.
Effective September 29, 1995, the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the “Riegle-Neal Act”) allows the FRB to approve an application of an adequately capitalized and adequately managed bank holding company to acquire control of, or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, a bank located in a state other than such holding company’s home state, without regard to whether the transaction is prohibited by the laws of any state. The FRB may not approve the acquisition of a bank that has not been in existence for the minimum time period (not exceeding five years) specified by the statutory law of the target bank’s state. The Riegle-Neal Act also prohibits the FRB from approving an application if the applicant (and its depository institution affiliates) controls or would control more than 10% of the insured deposits in the United States or 30% or more of the deposits in the target bank’s home state or in any state in which the target bank maintains a branch. The Riegle-Neal Act does not affect the authority of states to limit the percentage of total insured deposits in the state which may be held or controlled by a bank or bank holding company to the extent such limitation does not discriminate against out-of-state banks or bank holding companies. Individual states may also waive the 30% statewide concentration limit contained in the Riegle-Neal Act.
Additionally, the federal banking agencies are authorized to approve interstate merger transactions without regard to whether such transaction is prohibited by the law of any state, unless the home state of one of the banks has opted out of the Riegle-Neal Act by adopting a law after the date of enactment of the Riegle-Neal Act and prior to June 1, 1997, which applies equally to all out-of-state banks and expressly prohibits merger transactions involving out-of-state banks. Interstate acquisitions of branches are permitted only if the law of the state in which the branch is located permits such acquisitions. Interstate mergers and branch acquisitions are also subject to the nationwide and statewide insured deposit concentration amounts described above.
The Riegle-Neal Act authorizes the FDIC to approve interstate branching de novo by national and state banks, respectively, only in states that specifically allow for such branching. The Riegle-Neal Act also requires the appropriate federal banking agencies to prescribe regulations that prohibit any out-of-state bank from using the interstate branching authority primarily for the purpose of deposit production.
The Bank is an “affiliate” of the Company within the meaning of the Federal Reserve Act. This act places restrictions on a bank’s loans or extensions of credit to purchases of or investments in the securities of, and purchases of assets from an affiliate, a bank’s loans or extensions of credit to third parties collateralized by the securities or obligations of an affiliate, the issuance of guarantees, acceptances, and letters of credit on behalf of an affiliate, and certain bank transactions with an affiliate, or with respect to which an affiliate acts as agent, participates, or has a financial interest. Furthermore, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property or furnishings of services.
Under FRB policy, the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support its subsidiary. This support may be required at times when, absent such FRB policy, the Company may not be inclined to provide it. Under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (“FIRREA”), a depository institution insured by the FDIC can be held liable for any loss incurred by, or reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC after August 9, 1989 in connection with (a) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution or (b) any assistance provided by the FDIC to any commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution “in danger of default.” “Default” is defined generally as the appointment of a conservator or receiver and “in danger of default” is defined generally as the existence of certain conditions indicating that a default is likely to occur in the absence of regulatory assistance. Under FDICIA (see discussion below) a bank holding company may be required to guarantee the capital plan of an undercapitalized depository institution. Any capital loans by a bank holding company to any of its subsidiary banks are subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary bank. In the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment.
Louisiana
Under the Louisiana Bank Holding Company Act of 1962, as amended (the “Louisiana BHC Act”), bank holding companies are authorized to operate in Louisiana provided the activities of the non bank subsidiaries thereof are limited to the ownership of real estate and improvements, computer services, equipment leasing, and other directly related banking activities. In addition, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries may not engage in any insurance activity in which a bank may not engage. The Commissioner of the OFI is authorized to administer the Louisiana BHC Act by the issuance of orders and regulations. At present, prior approval of the Commissioner would not be required for the formation and operation of a nonblank subsidiary of the Company if its activities meet the requirements of the Louisiana BHC Act.
Bank Regulation
The Bank is subject to examination and regulation by the FDIC. The Bank is chartered under the banking laws of the State of Louisiana and is subject to the supervision of, and regular examination by, the OFI. As an affiliate of the Bank, the Company is also subject to examination by the OFI. In addition, the deposits of the Bank are insured by the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) thereby rendering the Bank subject to the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDIA”) and, as a state nonmember bank, to supervision and examination by the FDIC. The FDIA requires the FDIC approval of any merger and/or consolidation by or with an insured bank, as well as the establishment or relocation of any bank or branch office. The FDIC also supervises compliance with the provisions of federal law and regulations that place restrictions on loans by FDIC-insured banks to their directors, executive officers, and other controlling persons.
In December 1991, a major banking bill entitled the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) was enacted, which substantially revises the bank regulatory and funding provisions of the FDIA and makes revisions to several other federal banking statues. Among other things, the FDICIA requires the federal banking regulators to take “prompt corrective action” in respect of depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. The Bank has capital levels above the minimum requirements. In addition, an institution that is not well capitalized is generally prohibited form accepting brokered deposits and offering interest rates on deposits higher than the prevailing rate in its market and also may not be able to “pass through” insurance coverage for certain employee benefit accounts. The FDICIA also requires the holding company of any undercapitalized depository institution to guarantee, in part, certain aspects of such depository institution’s capital plan for such plan to be acceptable. The FDICIA contains numerous other provisions, including new account, audit and reporting requirements, termination of the “too big to fail” doctrine except in special cases, limitations on the FDIC’s payment of deposits at foreign branches, new regulatory standards in such areas as asset quality, earnings and compensation and revised regulatory standards for, among other things, powers of state banks, real estate lending and capital adequacy. The FDICIA also requires that a depository institution provide 90 days prior notice of the closing of any branches.
Furthermore, all banks are affected by the credit policies of other monetary authorities, including the FRB, which regulate the national supply of bank credit. Such regulation influences overall growth of bank loans, investments, and deposits and may also affect interest rates charged on loans and paid on deposits. The FRB’s monetary policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past, and the Company expects this trend to continue in the future.
Dividends
The FRB has issued a policy statement on the payment of cash dividends by bank holding companies. In the policy statement, the FRB expressed its view that a bank holding company experiencing earnings weaknesses should not pay cash dividends exceeding its net income or which could only be funded in ways that weaken the bank holding company’s financial health, such as by borrowing. Additionally, the FRB possesses enforcement powers over bank holding companies and their non-bank subsidiaries to prevent or remedy actions that represent unsafe or unsound practices or violations of applicable statues and regulations. Among these powers is the ability to prohibit or limit the payment of dividends by banks and bank holding companies.
In addition to the restrictions on dividends imposed by the FRB, Louisiana law also places limitations on the Company’s ability to pay dividends. For example, the Company may not pay dividends to its shareholders if, after giving effect to the dividend, the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due. Because a major source of the Company’s revenue is dividends that it receives and expects to receive from the Bank, the Company’s ability to pay dividends to its shareholders will depend on the amount of dividends paid by the Bank to the Company. The Company cannot be sure that the Bank will, in any circumstances, pay such dividends to the Company, as Louisiana banking law provides that a Louisiana bank may not pay dividends if it does not have, or will not have after the payment of such dividend, unimpaired surplus equal to 50% of the outstanding capital stock of the bank. In addition, OFI approval is required to declare or pay any dividend that would bring the total of all dividends paid in any one calendar year to an amount greater than the total of such bank’s net profits for such year combined with the net profits of the immediately preceding year.
Effect of Governmental Policies
The Company and the Bank are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities, including the FRB. An important function of the Federal Reserve System is to regulate the national money supply. Among the instruments of monetary policy used by the Federal Reserve are: purchases and sales of U.S. Government securities in the marketplace; changes in the discount rate, which is the rate any depository institution must pay to borrow from the Federal Reserve; and changes in the reserve requirements of depository institutions. These instruments are effective in influencing economic and monetary growth, interest rate levels, and inflation.
The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve and other governmental policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. Because of changing conditions in the national economy and in the financial markets, as well as the result of actions by monetary and fiscal authorities, it is not possible to predict with certainty future changes in interest rates, deposit levels, loan demand or the business and earnings of the Company or whether the changing economic conditions will have a positive or negative effect on operations and earnings.
Code of Ethics
The Company has adopted a code of ethics that applies to all directors, officers and employees that is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote the following:
| 1.) | Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; |
| 2.) | Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents; |
| 3.) | Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; |
| 4.) | The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and |
| 5.) | Accountability for adherence to the code. |
A copy of the Company’s code of ethics may be obtained by writing to:

Community Reinvestment Act (CRA)
In connection with its lending activities, the Bank is subject to a variety of federal laws designed to protect borrowers and promote lending to various sectors of the economy and populations.
The CRA requires FDIC insured banks to define the assessment areas that they serve, identify the credit needs of those assessment areas and take actions that respond to the credit needs of the community. The FDIC must conduct regular CRA examinations of the Bank and assign it a CRA rating of “outstanding,” “satisfactory,” “needs improvement” or “unsatisfactory.” The Bank has received a “satisfactory“ rating from the FDIC.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Board of Directors of the Bank of Louisiana, on June 8, 1988, adopted a resolution to amend the Articles of Incorporation of the Bank by adding a new Article VII as follows:
No director or officer of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its shareholder for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability (i) for breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts of omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for any unlawful dividend or any other unlawful distribution, payment or return of assets made to shareholders, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
The following is a brief summary of some of the provision of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) that affect the Company and the Bank. It is not intended as an exhaustive description of SOX or its impact on us.
SOX instituted or increased various requirements for corporate governance, board of director and audit committee composition and membership, board duties, auditing standards, external audit firm standards, additional disclosure requirements, including CEO and CFO certification of financial statements and related controls, and other new requirements.
Board of directors are now required to have a majority of independent directors, and audit committees are required to be wholly independent, with greater financial expertise. Such independent directors are not allowed to receive compensation from the company on whose board they serve except for directors’ fees. Additionally, requirements for auditing standards and independence of external auditors were increased and included independent audit partner review, audit partner rotation, and limitations over non-audit services. Penalties for non-compliance with existing and new requirements were established or increased.
In addition, Section 404 of SOX currently requires that by the end of 2006, our management perform a detailed assessment of internal controls and report thereon as follows:
| 1. | We must state that we accept the responsibility for maintaining an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting |
| 2. | We must present an assessment, as of the end of each December 31 fiscal year, of the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedure for our financial reporting, and |
| 3. | We must have our auditors attest to, and report on, as of the end of each December 31 fiscal year, the assessment made by management. The attestation must be made in accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. |
We have taken steps with respect to achieving compliance.
Financial Modernization Act
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, (“GLB”) of 1999 permits bank holding companies meeting certain management, capital, and community reinvestment act standards to engage in a substantially broader range of non-banking activities than permitted previously, including insurance underwriting and merchant banking activities. This act repeals the provision of the Glass Steagall Act, thus permitting affiliations of banks with securities firms and registered investment companies. The act authorizes financial holding companies, which permits banks to be owned by or to own securities firms, insurance companies, and merchant banking companies. The act gives the FRB authority to regulate financial holding companies, but provides for functional regulation of subsidiary activities.
In addition, the GLB Act also provided significant new protections for the privacy of customer information that are applicable to the Company. Accordingly, we must (1) adopt and disclose a privacy policy; (2) give customers the right to prevent us from making disclosure of non-public financial information, subject to specified exceptions; and (3) follow regulatory standards to protect the security and confidentiality of customer information.
Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”)
On October 13, 2008, the FDIC announced the TLGP to strengthen confidence and encourage liquidity in the banking system. The TLGP consists of two components: a temporary guarantee of newly-issued senior unsecured debt (the Debt Guarantee Program) and a temporary unlimited guarantee of funds in non-interest-bearing transaction and regular checking accounts at FDIC-insured institutions (the Transaction Account Guarantee Program). The Bank chose not to participate in the program.
Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”)
On October 14, 2008, the U.S. Department of Treasury announced the TARP Capital Purchase Program. The TARP Capital Purchase Program contemplates the U.S. Treasury purchasing senior preferred shares in qualified U.S. financial institutions. The program is intended to encourage participating financial institutions to build capital in order to increase the flow of financing to U.S. businesses and consumers and to support the U.S. economy. Companies participating in the program must accept standardized terms as outlined by the U.S. Treasury and must adopt the Treasury Department’s standards for executive compensation and corporate governance. Additionally, participants must agree to accept future program requirements as may be promulgated by the U.S. Congress and regulatory authorities. The Bank chose not to participate in TARP.
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”)
On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Act was signed into law. The Dodd-Frank Act was intended primarily to overhaul the financial regulatory framework following the global financial crisis and has impacted, and will continue to impact, all financial institutions. The Dodd-Frank Act contains provisions that have, among other things, established a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, established a systemic risk regulator, consolidated certain federal bank regulators and imposed increased corporate governance and executive compensation requirements. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new implementing rules and regulations and to prepare numerous studies and reports for the U.S. Congress. The federal agencies are given significant discretion in drafting and implementing regulations. Although some of these regulations have been promulgated, many additional regulations are expected to be issued in 2012 and thereafter. Consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act may not be known for many months or years.
Emergency Economic Stabilization of 2008 (“EESA”)
On October 3, 2008, the United States government passed the EESA, which provides the United States Department of the Treasury with broad authority to implement certain actions intended to help restore stability and liquidity to the U.S. financial markets.
Deposit Insurance
As part of the EESA, the basic limit on federal deposit insurance coverage was temporarily increased from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2013 by the FDIC. As part of the Dodd-Frank Act, federal deposit insurance coverage was permanently raised to $250,000.
The FDIC imposed an additional assessment against institutions for deposit insurance. This assessment is based on the risk category of the institution and ranges from 5 to 43 basis points of the institution’s deposits. In December, 2008, the FDIC adopted a rule that raises the current deposit insurance assessment rates uniformly for all institutions by 7 basis points (to a range from 12 to 50 basis points) for the first quarter of 2009. The rule also gives the FDIC the authority to alter the way it calculates federal deposit insurance assessment rates to adjust for an institution’ risk beginning in the second quarter of 2009 and thereafter, and as necessary to implement emergency special assessments to maintain the deposit insurance fund.

To the Board of Directors
BOL Bancshares, Inc. & Subsidiary
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets ofBOL BANCSHARES, INC. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Louisiana, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position ofBOL BANCSHARES, INC. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Louisiana, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We were not engaged to examine management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, included in the Form 10-K and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

NOTE A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
BOL BANCSHARES, INC.(the Company) was organized as a Louisiana corporation on May 7, 1981, for the purpose of becoming a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act. The Company was inactive until April 29, 1988, when it acquired Bank of Louisiana, BOS Bancshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of the South, and Fidelity Bank and Trust Company of Slidell, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fidelity Land Co. in a business reorganization of entities under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interest. The acquired companies are engaged in the banking industry.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Louisiana (the Bank) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, BOL Assets, LLC. In consolidation, significant inter-company accounts, transactions, and profits have been eliminated.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The Company classifies all investment securities as available for sale as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. Securities classified as available for sale are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes. Other-than-temporary impairment, deemed to be credit related, is charged to earnings as realized losses. Realized gains and losses on securities are included in net income. Cost of securities sold is recognized using the specific identification method.
Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using methods approximating the interest method over the term of the securities.
LOANS AND UNEARNED INCOME
Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by unearned discount and an allowance for loan losses. Unearned discounts on loans are recognized as income over the term of the loans on the interest method. Interest on other loans is calculated and credited to operations on a simple interest basis. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that collectibility of the principal is unlikely. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs, when material, are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield on the related loan.
Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when payments are past due over 90 days, unless the loan is in the process of collection and the underlying collateral fully supports the carrying value of the loan. If the decision is made to continue accruing interest on the loan, periodic reviews are made to confirm the accruing status of the loan. All interest accrued but not collected for these loans is reversed against income. Payments received on such loans are reported as principal reductions until qualifying for return to accrual basis. Loans are returned to accrual status when all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
LOANS AND UNEARNED INCOME (Continued)
The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it believes it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans are identified for impairment through, among other things, internally generated listings such as watch lists, past due reports, and overdraft listings, historical loss experience by type of loan, loan files lacking current financial data related to borrowers and guarantors, borrowers experiencing problems, loans secured by collateral that is not readily marketable and loans to borrowers in industries experiencing economic instability. The Company’s impaired loans include performing and non-performing loans in which full payment of principal or interest is not expected. The Company calculates an allowance required for impaired loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of its collateral, less costs to sell.
Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible, based on all available current and historical information, that it is probable a loss has been incurred. The information used in determining when a loss has been incurred include watch lists, contact with the customer, and other monthly reports provided to management.
TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURINGS
Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) occur when the Company agrees to significantly modify the original terms of a loan due to the deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. TDRs are considered impaired loans. Upon designation as a TDR, the Company evaluates the borrower’s payment history, past due status, and ability to make payments based on the revised terms of the loan. If a loan was accruing prior to being modified as a TDR and if the Company concludes that the borrower is able to make such payments, and there are no other factors or circumstances that would cause it to conclude otherwise, the loan will remain on an accruing status. If a loan was on nonaccrual status at the time of the TDR, the loan will remain on nonaccrual status following the modification and may be returned to accrual status based on the policy for returning loans to accrual status.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expenses. Management’s policy is to maintain the allowance at a level believed, to the best of management’s knowledge, to cover all known and inherent losses in the portfolio. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses on a periodic basis in order to identify those inherent losses and to assess the overall collection probability of the loan portfolio. The evaluation process includes, among other things, an analysis of delinquency trends, non-performing loan trends, the level of charge-offs and recoveries, prior loss experience, total loans outstanding, the volume of loan originations, the type, size and geographic concentration of the Company’s loans, the value of collateral securing the loan, the borrower’s ability to repay and repayment performance, the number of loans requiring heightened management oversight, local economic conditions and industry experience. From this analysis, a general, specific and unallocated reserve is established, which totals the allowance for loan losses at each reporting date. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)
For real estate, commercial and consumer loans, management evaluates the average historical charge-off rate for the previous five years. However, charge-off trends occurring within the past 12 to 24 months are considered in determining an appropriate loss percentage to use in the Bank’s allowance estimate for these types of loans. For charge card loans, management considers the past two years of historical charge-offs in order to develop an appropriate allowance estimate.
OTHER REAL ESTATE
Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure is held for sale and is initially recorded at the lower of the loan balance or net realizable value. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Any write-down to fair value at the time of transfer to Other Real Estate is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Adjustments to carrying value, revenue and expenses related to holding foreclosed assets are recorded in earnings as they occur.
PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS
Buildings, office equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed principally on the straight-line and modified accelerated cost recovery methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are generally depreciated over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on dispositions are included in current operations.
INCOME TAXES
The Company and its consolidated subsidiary file a consolidated Federal income tax return. Federal income taxes are allocated between the companies, in accordance with a written agreement.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of a sufficient level of future taxable income and recoverable taxes paid in prior years. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.

INCOME TAXES (Continued)
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above would be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the consolidated balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits would be classified as additional income taxes in the statement of operations.
MEMBERSHIP FEES
Membership fees are collected in the anniversary month of the cardholder and are amortized over a twelve-month period using the straight-line method.
CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS
The Company considers all amounts due from banks, certificates of deposit with an original maturity of 90 days or less, Treasury Bills, and Federal Funds Sold, to be cash equivalents.
RESTRICTIONS ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS
The Bank is required to maintain non-interest bearing reserve balances to fulfill its reserve requirements. The average amount of the required reserve balance was approximately $930,000 and $955,000, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
NON-DIRECT RESPONSE ADVERTISING
The Bank expenses advertising costs as incurred.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and deferred tax assets.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that modified Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist such as 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. This new authoritative guidance is effective on January 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In April 2011, the FASB updated the accounting guidance on the evaluation of whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The guidance clarifies the creditor’s evaluation of whether it has granted a concession as well as the evaluation of whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The guidance also clarifies that a creditor is precluded from using the effective interest rate test in the debtor’s guidance on restructuring of payables when evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The new guidance will be effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.
In April 2011, the FASB amended the accounting guidance related to repurchase agreements and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The amendments remove from the assessment of effective internal control the criterion relating to the transferor’s ability to repurchase or redeem financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee. The amendments also eliminate the requirement to demonstrate that the transferor possesses adequate collateral to fund substantially all the cost of purchasing replacement financial assets. The guidance is effective January 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In May 2011, the FASB amended the accounting guidance related to fair value measurement and disclosure, the result of which being common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The FASB does not intend for the amendment to result in a change in the application of the requirements in Topic 820. Some of the amendments clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements. Other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments are effective January 1, 2012 with no significant impact expected on the Company’s financial statements.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)
In June 2011, the FASB amended the accounting guidance for presentation of other comprehensive income. The new guidance requires that all nonowner changes in stockholders equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The new guidance will be effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. In addition, this guidance requires the entity to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. In December 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the guidance released in June 2011 to defer the changes related to the presentation of reclassification adjustments to give the FASB more time to reassess and evaluate alternative presentation formats. Thus, the requirements for the presentation of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income that were in place before the issuance of the June 2011 guidance were reinstated until their deliberation is complete.
In September 2011, the FASB amended guidance pertaining to goodwill impairment testing. The amendments permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The guidance is effective January 1, 2012 with no significant impact expected on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued guidance which relates to deconsolidation events. Under this amendment, when a parent (reporting entity) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of the default on the subsidiary’s nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20,Property, Plant and Equipment - Real Estate Sales, to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. This guidance is effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to provide enhanced disclosures in the financial statements about offsetting and netting arrangements. The new guidance requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. This guidance was issued to facilitate comparison between financial statements prepared on a U.S. GAAP and IFRS reporting. The new guidance is effective January 1, 2013 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Amounts in prior years’ consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current year’s presentation.

The Company’s loan portfolio segments consist of the following:
Real Estate Loans – Consists of residential first and second mortgage loans on one-to-four family homes; construction and development loans; multiple dwelling unit loans; housing rehabilitation loans; loans to purchase developed real property; and commercial real estate loans. Commercial real estate, multi-family residential and construction lending generally is considered to involve a higher degree of risk than single-family residential lending due to a variety of factors, including generally larger loan balances, the dependency on successful completion or operation of the project for repayment, the difficulties in estimating construction costs and loan terms which often do not require full amortization of the loan over its term and, instead, provide for a balloon payment at stated maturity. As a result of the larger loan balances typically involved in these loans, an adverse development with respect to one loan or one credit relationship can expose us to greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to a one- to four-family residential mortgage loan.
Commercial Loans (Secured and Unsecured) – Consists of working capital loans, secured and unsecured lines of credit, and small equipment loans. Commercial lending involves certain risk relating to changes in local and national economic conditions and the resulting effect on commercial borrowers. Such loans are subject to greater risk of default during periods of adverse economic conditions. Because such loans may be secured by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable and other non-real estate assets, the collateral may not be sufficient to ensure full payment of the loan in the event of a default. To reduce such risk, we may obtain the personal guarantees of one or more of the principals of the borrowers.
Personal/Consumer Loans – Consists of automobile, mobile home, recreational vehicle, and boat loans; home improvement and second-mortgage loans; secured and unsecured personal expense loans. Significant risks associated with consumer loans consist primarily of negative changes in the financial stability of the borrower and the lack of marketability of collateral.
Credit Cards – The Bank offers a variety of nationally recognized credit cards, in addition to its own Mr. Bol credit card, and private label credit cards for use at retail establishments nationwide. Credit card lines are underwritten using conservative credit criteria, including past credit history and debt-to-income ratios.
The Bank has a number of proprietary accounts it services. These accounts consist largely of small to medium sized merchants who have issued their own private-label cards. The Bank acquires these credit card accounts, typically with reserves posted, and requires the merchant to repurchase accounts 180 days or more past due.

Loans are considered past due of the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date of such payments were due. Loans are placed on non-accrual status, when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on non-accrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due.

The Company’s loan portfolio also includes certain loans that have been modified in a Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, or other actions.
When the Company modifies a loan, management evaluates any possible concession based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement, except when the sole source of repayment for the loan is the liquidation of the collateral. In these cases, management uses the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized through an allowance estimate.

At December 31, 2011, there are no commitments to lend additional funds to any borrower whose loan terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring.
Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. If a loan is impaired, a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary, so that the loan is reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE G ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)
The classification of loans reflect a judgment about the risks of default and loss associated with the loan. The Company reviews the ratings on credits monthly. Ratings are adjusted to reflect the degree of risk and loss that is felt to be inherent in each credit as of each monthly reporting period. The methodology is structured so that specific allocations are increased in accordance with deterioration in credit quality (and a corresponding increase in risk and loss) or decreased in accordance with improvement in credit quality (and a corresponding decrease in risk and loss).
Credits rated “pass” are those which comply with all material respects with the Bank’s loan policies, that are adequately secured with conforming collateral and that are extended to borrowers with documented cash flow and/or liquidity to safely cover their total debt service requirements.
Credits rated “watch” show clear signs of financial weakness or deterioration in credit worthiness; however, such concerns are not so pronounced that the Company generally expects to experience significant loss within the short-term. Such credits typically maintain the ability to perform within standard credit terms and credit exposure is not as prominent as credits rated more harshly.
Credits rated “substandard” are those in which the normal repayment of principal and interest may be, or has been jeopardized by reason of adverse trends or developments in financial, managerial, economic or political nature, or important weaknesses exist in collateral. Corrective action is required to strengthen the Company’s position, and/or to reduce exposure and to assure that adequate remedial measures are taken by the borrower. Credit exposure becomes more likely in such credits.
Credits rated “doubtful” are those in which full collection of principal appears highly questionable, and which some degree of loss is anticipated, even though the ultimate amount of loss may not yet be certain and/or other factors exist which could affect collection of debt. Based upon available information, positive action by the Company is required to avert or minimize loss. Credits rated doubtful are generally also placed on nonaccrual.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE J CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS (Continued)
Commitments to extend credit, credit card arrangements and standby letters of credit all include exposure to some credit loss in the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Bank's credit policies and procedures for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extension of credit that are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because many of them expire without being drawn upon, they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk to the Bank.
In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina impacted the New Orleans area. Several of the Bank’s branches sustained significant damage as a result of the hurricane. In addition, due to concessions made to customers to facilitate the timely processing of transactions, the Bank has estimated that it has sustained losses. As a result of these losses, the Bank received approximately $2,090,000 of insurance proceeds. Due to the uncertainty of the financial impact of Katrina, these proceeds were recorded as an escrow account on the balance sheet of the Bank. Impairment losses and expenditures associated with repairs to the Bank’s facilities were applied against this account. During 2009, the Bank recognized into income the remaining balance in the escrow account, which totaled approximately $817,000.
NOTE K RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank makes loans to its directors, officers and principal holders of equity securities. These loans are made on substantially the same terms including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. An analysis of loans made to directors, officers and principal holders of equity securities, including companies in which they have a significant ownership interest, is as follows:
| | 2011 | | | 2010 | |
Balance - January 1 | | $ | 1,077,302 | | | $ | 1,186,284 | |
New Loans Made | | | 137,465 | | | | 508,722 | |

As of December 31, 2011, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized “well capitalized” the Bank must maintain minimum leverage capital ratios and minimum amounts of capital to total "risk weighted" assets, as set forth in the table. Management philosophy and plans are directed to enhancing the financial stability of the Bank to ensure the continuity of operations.

NOTE Y DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practiced to estimate the value:
CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
For cash, the carrying amount approximates fair value. For short-term investments, fair values are calculated based upon general investment market interest rates for similar maturity investments.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
For securities and marketable equity securities held-for-investment purposes, fair values are based on quoted market prices.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE Y DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
LOAN RECEIVABLES
For certain homogeneous categories of loans, such as residential mortgages, credit card receivables and other consumer loans, fair value is estimated using the current U.S. treasury interest rate curve, a factor for cost of processing and a factor for historical credit risk to determine the discount rate.
DEPOSIT LIABILITIES
The fair value of demand deposits, savings deposits and certain money market deposits are calculated based upon general investment market interest rates for investments with similar maturities. The value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the U.S. treasury interest rate curve currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
COMMITMENTS TO EXTEND CREDIT
The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present credit-worthiness of the counterparties.
The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

NOTE Z FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company adopted ASC 820 on January 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.
BOL BANCSHARES, INC. & SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE Z FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
In addition to defining fair value, ASC 820 expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
| · | Level 1 - Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. |
| · | Level 2 - Inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market date for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| · | Level 3 - Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques. |
The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of the net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There have been no changes in the methodologies used during the year ended December 31, 2011.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Item 8 Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure - None
Item 8A(T) Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.
With the participation of management, the certifying officers of the Company have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011 and have concluded that such controls and procedures are effective. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial report for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material affect on our financial statements would have been prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management, with the participation of the certifying officers of the Company, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework.
