Note 2 — Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included.
In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. 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, the valuation of foreclosed real estate and deferred tax assets, and the fair value of investment securities. The results of operations and other data for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011. We have evaluated all subsequent events through the date of this filing. The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
The Corporation’s investment in real estate held for investment and sale includes 50% owned real estate partnerships which are considered variable interest entities (“VIE’s”) and therefore subject to the requirements of ASC 810-10-15. ASC 810-10-15 requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity.
Noncontrolling interest in real estate partnerships represents the equity interests of development partners in the real estate investment partnerships. The development partners’ share of income is reflected as non-controlling interest in income of consolidated real estate partnership operations.
Certain prior period accounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentations. The 2009 stockholders’ equity has been restated to reflect $2.4 million of FDIC premium that should have been expensed in prior years. The reclassifications had no impact on prior year’s consolidated net loss.

Note 3 – Significant Risks and Uncertainties
Regulatory Agreements
On June 26, 2009, the Corporation and the Bank each consented to the issuance of an Order to Cease and Desist (the “Corporation Order” and the “Bank Order,” respectively, and together, the “Orders”) by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”).
The Corporation Order requires the Corporation to notify, and in certain cases to obtain the permission of, the OTS prior to: (i) declaring, making or paying any dividends or other capital distributions on its capital stock, including the repurchase or redemption of its capital stock; (ii) incurring, issuing, renewing or rolling over any debt, increasing any current lines of credit or guaranteeing the debt of any entity; (iii) making certain changes to its directors or senior executive officers; (iv) entering into, renewing, extending or revising any contractual arrangement related to compensation or benefits with any of its directors or senior executive officers; and (v) making any golden parachute payments or prohibited indemnification payments. The Corporation developed and submitted to the OTS a three-year cash flow plan, which must be reviewed at least quarterly by the Corporation’s management and board for material deviations between the cash flow plan’s projections and actual results (the “Variance Analysis Report”). Within thirty days following the end of each quarter, the Corporation is required to provide the OTS its Variance Analysis Report for that quarter. These reports have been submitted.
The Bank Order requires the Bank to notify, or in certain cases obtain the permission of, the OTS prior to (i) increasing its total assets in any quarter in excess of an amount equal to net interest credited on deposit liabilities during the quarter; (ii) accepting, rolling over or renewing any brokered deposits; (iii) making certain changes to its directors or senior executive officers; (iv) entering into, renewing, extending or revising any contractual arrangement related to compensation or benefits with any of its directors or senior executive officers; (v) making any golden parachute or prohibited indemnification payments; (vi) paying dividends or making other capital distributions on its capital stock; (vii) entering into certain transactions with affiliates; and (viii) entering into third-party contracts outside the normal course of business.
The Orders also required the Bank to meet and maintain a core capital ratio equal to or greater than 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 12% no later than December 31, 2009. The Bank must also submit, and has submitted, to the OTS, within prescribed time periods, a written capital contingency plan, a problem asset plan, a revised business plan, and an implementation plan resulting from a review of commercial lending practices. The Orders also require the Bank to review its current liquidity management policy and the adequacy of its allowance for loan and lease losses.
At September 30, 2009, December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, the Bank had a core capital ratio of 4.12%, 4.12%, 3.73% and 4.08%, respectively, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 7.36%, 7.59%, 7.32% and 7.63%, respectively, each below the required capital ratios set forth above. Without a waiver by the OTS or amendment or modification of the Orders, the Bank could be subject to further regulatory action. All customer deposits remain fully insured to the highest limits set by the FDIC.
The description of each of the Orders and the corresponding Stipulation and Consent to Issuance of Order to Cease and Desist were previously filed as Exhibits to the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.
Going Concern
The Corporation and the Bank continue to diligently work with their financial and professional advisors in seeking qualified sources of outside capital, and in achieving compliance with the requirements of the Orders. The Corporation and the Bank continue to consult with the OTS and FDIC on a regular basis concerning the Corporation’s and Bank’s proposals to obtain outside capital and to develop action plans that will be acceptable to federal regulatory authorities, but there can be no assurance that these actions will be successful, or that even if one or more of the Corporation’s and Bank’s proposals are accepted by the Federal regulators, that these proposals will be successfully implemented. While the Corporation’s management continues to exert maximum effort to attract new capital, significant operating losses in fiscal 2008, 2009 and 2010, significant levels of criticized assets and low levels of capital raise substantial doubt as to the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the
9
Corporation and Bank are unable to achieve compliance with the requirements of the Orders, or implement an acceptable Capital Restoration Plan, and if the Corporation and Bank cannot otherwise comply with such commitments and regulations, the OTS or FDIC could force a sale, liquidation or federal conservatorship or receivership of the Bank.
Branch Sales
Management of the Corporation has entered into an agreement for the sale of four branches in the Green Bay, Wisconsin area. The buyer will assume approximately $105 million in deposits along with loans, real estate and other assets. The sale and conversion was completed on July 23, 2010 and a gain of approximately $2.5 million was recognized.
Credit Risks
While the Corporation has devoted and will continue to devote substantial management resources toward the resolution of all delinquent, impaired and nonaccrual loans, no assurance can be made that management’s efforts will be successful. These conditions create an uncertainty about material adverse consequences that may occur in the near term. The continuing recession and the decrease in valuations of real estate have had a significant adverse impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. As reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Corporation has incurred a net loss of $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Stockholders’ equity decreased from $30.1 million or 0.68% of total assets at March 31, 2010 to $24.3 million or 0.61% of total assets at June 30, 2010. At June 30, 2010, the Bank’s risk-based capital is considered undercapitalized for regulatory purposes. Additionally, the Bank’s risk-based capital and Tier 1 capital ratios are below the target levels of the Bank Order dated June 26, 2009. The recent losses originate from a provision for loan losses of $8.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, along with an increase in nonaccrual loans, which has reduced the Corporation’s net interest income. The Corporation’s net interest income will continue to be impacted by the level of non-performing assets and the Corporation expects additional losses into the next fiscal year.
The Corporation and the Bank have submitted a capital restoration plan stating that the Corporation intends to restore the capital position of the Bank. If the OTS does not accept the capital restoration plan, the OTS could assess civil money penalties or take other enforcement actions against the Bank or the Corporation.
Further, the Corporation entered into an amendment (Amendment No. 6) to the Credit Agreement with U.S. Bank NA, as described in Note 12, which established new financial covenants. Under the terms of the amended Credit Agreement, the Agent and the lenders have certain rights, including the right to accelerate the maturity of the borrowings if all covenants are not complied with. As of June 30, 2010, the Corporation was in compliance with the financial and non-financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as amended on April 29, 2010, although there is no guaranty that the Corporation will remain in compliance with the covenants.
Note 4 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements.”ASU 2010-06 requires expanded disclosures related to fair value measurements including (i) the amounts of significant transfers of assets or liabilities between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for the transfers, (ii) the reasons for transfers of assets or liabilities in or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, with significant transfers disclosed separately, (iii) the policy for determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized and (iv) for recurring fair value measurements of assets and liabilities in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, a gross presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. ASU 2010-06 further clarifies that (i) fair value measurement disclosures should be provided for each class of assets and liabilities (rather than major category), which would generally be a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position and (ii) company’s should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for each class of assets and liabilities included in Levels 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The disclosures related to the gross presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy will be required for the Corporation beginning January 1, 2011. The
10
remaining disclosure requirements and clarifications made by ASU 2010-06 became effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2010.
ASU No. 2010-11, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) — Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.”ASU 2010-11 clarifies that the only form of an embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The provisions of ASU 2010-11 will be effective for the Corporation on July 1, 2010 and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.
ASU No. 2010-20, “Receivables (Topic 830) — Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.”ASU 2010-20 requires entities to provide disclosures designed to facilitate financial statement users’ evaluation of (i) the nature of credit risk inherent in the entity’s portfolio of financing receivables, (ii) how that risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses and (iii) the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for credit losses. Disclosures must be disaggregated by portfolio segment, the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for credit losses, and class of financing receivable, which is generally a disaggregation of portfolio segment. The required disclosures include, among other things, a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses as well as information about modified, impaired, non-accrual and past due loans and credit quality indicators. ASU 2010-20 will be effective for the Corporation’s financial statements as of December 31, 2010, as it relates to disclosures required as of the end of a reporting period. Disclosures that relate to activity during a reporting period will be required for the Corporation’s financial statements that include periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011.
FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing.”New authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” amends prior accounting guidance to enhance reporting about transfers of financial assets, including securitizations, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity” and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance also requires additional disclosures about all continuing involvements with transferred financial assets including information about gains and losses resulting from transfers during the period. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860 was effective April 1, 2010 and did not have an impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

The tables above represent 28 investment securities at June 30, 2010 compared to 43 at March 31, 2010 that, due to the current interest rate environment and other factors, have declined in value but do not presently represent other than temporary losses. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses on investment securities, management considers many factors which include: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. To determine if an other-than-temporary impairment exists on a debt security, the Corporation first determines if (a) it intends to sell the security or (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. If either of the conditions are met, the Corporation will recognize an other-than-temporary impairment in earnings equal to the difference between the security’s fair value and its adjusted cost basis. If neither of the conditions are met, the Corporation determines (a) the amount of the impairment related to credit loss and (b) the amount of the impairment due to all other factors. The difference between the present values of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis is the credit loss. The credit loss is the portion of the other-than-temporary impairment that is recognized in earnings and is a reduction to the cost basis of the security. The portion of total impairment related to all other factors is included in other comprehensive income (loss).
In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and industry analysts’ reports.
The Corporation utilizes a discounted cash flow model in the determination of fair value which is used in the calculation of other-than-temporary impairments on non-agency Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMOs). This model is also used to determine the portion of the other-than-temporary impairment that is due to credit losses, and the portion that is due to all other factors. On securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the difference
13
between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis of the debt security is the credit loss.
To estimate fair value, the Corporation discounted its best estimate expected cash flows after credit losses at rates ranging from 4.0% to 14.0%. The rates utilized are based on the risk free rate equivalent to the remaining average life of the security, plus a spread for normal liquidity, plus a spread to reflect the uncertainty of the cash flow estimates. The Corporation benchmarks its fair value results to a pricing service and monitors the market for actual trades. The Corporation includes these inputs in its derivation of the discount rates used to estimate fair value. There are no payments in kind allowed on these non-agency CMOs. The significant inputs used for calculating the credit loss portion of the other than temporarily impaired (OTTI) include prepayment assumptions, loss severities, original FICO scores, historical rates of delinquency, percentage of loans with limited underwriting, historical rates of default, original loan-to-value ratio, aggregate property location by metropolitan statistical area, original credit support, current credit support, and weighted-averaged maturity. The discount rates used to establish the net present value of expected cash flows for purposes of determining OTTI ranged from 5.0% to 7.5%. The rates used equate to the effective yield implicit in the security at the date of acquisition for the bonds for which the bank has not in the past incurred OTTI. For the bonds for which the Corporation has previously recorded OTTI, the discount rate used equates to the accounting yield on the security as of the valuation date. Default rates were calculated separately for each category of underlying borrower based on delinquency status (i.e. current, 30 to 59 days delinquent, 60 to 89 days delinquent, 90+ days delinquent, and foreclosure balances) of the loans as of June 1, 2010. These balances were entered into a loss migration model to calculate projected default rates, which are benchmarked against results that have recently been experienced by other major servicers on non-agency CMOs with similar attributes. The projected default rates used in the model ranged from 2.7% to 12.7%.
Based on the Corporation’s impairment testing as of June 30, 2010, 15 non-agency CMOs with a fair value of $33.2 million and an adjusted cost of $38.5 million were other-than-temporarily impaired compared to 15 non-agency CMOs with a fair value of $34.8 million and an adjusted cost basis of $40.7 million as of March 31, 2010. The portion of the other-than-temporary impairment due to credit of $86,000 and $1.1 million was included in earnings for the three month period ending June 30, 2010 and the year ending March 31, 2010, respectively.
The cumulative unrealized losses on the securities analyzed were $7.3 million at June 30, 2010 and $7.8 million at March 31, 2010. The difference between the total unrealized losses of $7.3 million and the credit loss of $2.0 million, or $5.3 million, was included in other comprehensive income. All of the Corporation’s other-than-temporary impaired debt securities are non-agency CMOs.
The following table summarizes the fair value of 15 other-than-temporarily impaired non-agency CMOs by credit rating and collateral loan type. This table also includes a breakout of OTTI between impairment due to credit loss and impairment due to other factors for the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

At June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, investment securities available-for-sale with a fair value of approximately $415.1 million and $301.2 million, respectively, were pledged to secure deposits, borrowings and for other purposes as permitted or required by law.
The fair value of investment securities by contractual maturity at June 30, 2010 are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Investment securities subject to six-month calls amount to $5.5 million at June 30, 2010. There are no investment securities subject to twelve-month calls at June 30, 2010.

As of June 30, 2010, the Corporation had loans totaling $4.9 million that are on interest reserve. For these loans, no payments are typically received from the borrower since accumulated interest is added to the principal of the loan through the interest reserve. If appraisal values relating to these real estate secured loans, which include various assumptions, prove to be overstated and/or decline over the contractual term of the loan, the Corporation may have inadequate security for the repayment of the loan. As of June 30, 2010, $531,000 of our impaired loans remain on interest reserve, all of which have been placed on non-accrual status. These funds are restricted to be used for tenant improvements only.
17
At June 30, 2010, the Corporation has identified $375.3 million of loans as impaired, net of allowances and including performing troubled debt restructurings. A loan is identified as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. A summary of the details regarding impaired loans follows:

Loans past due ninety days or more and still accruing | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
Currently, all impaired loans (except for performing troubled debt restructurings) are placed on nonaccrual status. In those instances in which terms of a loan have been modified, including troubled debt restructurings, the Corporation’s policy is to remove the non-performing designation at such time the borrower has complied with the modified terms of the loan for at least six months and applicable underwriting criteria have been satisfied, including an indication of sufficient collateral coverage. In the event a portion of a loan has been charged-off to reflect deterioration in fair value of the collateral, no recovery is recognized until the modified loan has been fully satisfied. Those loans past due more than 90 days are considered non-performing.
The Corporation is currently committed to lend approximately $2.1 million in additional funds on these impaired loans in accordance with the original terms of these loans; however, the Corporation is not legally obligated to, and will not, disburse additional funds on any loans while in nonaccrual status. All of the $2.1 million in unused funds on impaired loans is applicable to non-performing loans. The Corporation has a process in place and will continue to monitor its portfolio on a regular basis and will only lend additional funds as warranted on these impaired loans.
Approximately 21% of the impaired loans as of June 30, 2010 relate to residential construction and residential land loans. As of June 30, 2010, $235.1 million of impaired loans do not have any specific valuation allowance. The
18
$235.1 million of impaired loans without a specific valuation allowance as of June 30, 2010 are generally impaired due to the fact that there has been a partial charge off to net realizable value or in the case of the homogeneous pool due to a delay in payment.
The Corporation experienced declines in the current valuations for real estate collateral supporting portions of its loan portfolio, primarily residential construction and residential land loans, throughout fiscal year 2010 and into the first quarter of fiscal year 2011, as reflected in recently received appraisals. Currently, $360.8 million or approximately 82.8% of the outstanding balance of impaired loans secured by real estate have recent appraisals (i.e. within one year) or an appraisal is not required due to the fact that the loan is either fully reserved or has a small balance and is included in a homogenous pool of loans; uses a net present value of future cash flows for impairment; or has an SBA guaranty although the Corporation continues to receive appraisals. If real estate values continue to decline and as updated appraisals are received, the Corporation may have to increase its allowance for loan losses significantly.
Note 7 — Foreclosed Properties and Repossessed Assets
Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure and other repossessed assets are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lesser of carrying cost or fair value at the date of foreclosure less estimated selling expenses, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling expenses. At the date of foreclosure any write down to fair value less estimated selling costs is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property are capitalized; holding period costs and subsequent changes to the valuation allowance are charged to expense.
A summary of the activity in foreclosed properties and repossessed assets is as follows (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2010, the most recent notification from the OTS categorizes the Bank as undercapitalized under the framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain core, tangible and risk-based capital ratios of 3.00%, 1.50% and 8.00%, respectively. In June, 2009, the Bank consented to the issuance of a Cease and Desist Order with the OTS which requires, among other things, capital requirements in excess of the generally applicable minimum requirements.

Note 9 — Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 have been determined by dividing net income for the respective periods by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive securities. The effects of dilutive securities are computed using the treasury stock method.

At June 30, 2010, approximately 430,000 stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive. The U.S. Treasury’s warrants to purchase 7.4 million shares at an exercise price of $2.23 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the warrants’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of common stock and was, therefore, anti-dilutive. Because of their anti-dilutive effect, the shares that would be issued if the U.S. Treasury’s Senior Preferred Stock were converted into common stock are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.
Note 10 — Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and financial guarantees which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement and exposure to credit loss the Corporation has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
21
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk are as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |

Partnership Finance Program | | | 21,602 | | | | 21,602 | |
IDI borrowing guarantees-unfunded | | | 408 | | | | 393 | |
Commitments to extend credit are in the form of a loan in the near future. Unused lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract and may be drawn upon at the borrowers’ discretion. Letters of credit commit the Corporation to make payments on behalf of customers when certain specified future events occur. Commitments and letters of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. As some such commitments expire without being drawn upon or funded by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLB”) under the Mortgage Partnership Finance Program, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. With the exception of credit card lines of credit, the Corporation generally extends credit only on a secured basis. Collateral obtained varies, but consists primarily of single-family residences and income-producing commercial properties. Fixed-rate loan commitments expose the Corporation to a certain amount of interest rate risk if market rates of interest substantially increase during the commitment period.
The Corporation intends to fund commitments through current liquidity.
The IDI borrowing guarantees-unfunded represented the Corporation’s commitment through its IDI subsidiary to guarantee the borrowings of the related real estate investment partnerships, which are included in the consolidated financial statements. For additional information, see “Guarantees” in Item 2- Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Except for the above-noted commitments to originate and/or sell mortgage loans in the normal course of business, the Corporation and the Bank have not undertaken the use of off-balance-sheet derivative financial instruments for any purpose.
In the ordinary course of business, there are legal proceedings against the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Management considers that the aggregate liabilities, if any, resulting from such actions would not have a material, adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Corporation.
Note 11 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value, is required whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Certain financial instruments with a fair value that is not practicable to estimate and all non-financial instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent the underlying value of the Corporation.
22
The Corporation, in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments, used the following methods and assumptions:
Cash and cash equivalents and accrued interest:The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate those assets’ and liabilities’ fair values.
Investment securities:Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. For securities in inactive markets, fair values are based on discounted cash flow or other valuation models.
Loans receivable:For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair values for loans held for sale are based on outstanding sale commitments or quoted market prices of similar loans sold in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans held for investment, commercial real estate loans, rental property mortgage loans and consumer and other loans and leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. For construction loans, fair values are based on carrying values due to the short-term nature of the loans.
Federal Home Loan Bank stock:The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates its fair value as it can only be redeemed to the FHLB at its par value.
Deposits:The fair values disclosed for NOW accounts, passbook accounts and variable rate insured money market accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The fair values of fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current interest rates being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities of the outstanding certificates of deposit.
Other Borrowed Funds:The fair values of the Corporation’s borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Corporation’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Off-balance-sheet instruments:Fair values of the Corporation’s off-balance-sheet instruments (lending commitments and unused lines of credit) are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the counterparties’ credit standing and discounted cash flow analyses. The fair value of these off-balance-sheet items approximates the recorded amounts of the related fees and is not material at June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments consist of the following (in thousands):

Accounting guidance for fair value establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
In determining the fair value, the Corporation uses various valuation methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Corporation utilizes assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. The Corporation uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Corporation is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
| • | | Level 1: Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. |
|
| • | | Level 2: Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities. |
|
| • | | Level 3: Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets. |

There were no transfers in or out of level 1 during the three months ended June 30, 2010. The corporation transferred its mortgage related securities to level 3 during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 due to the fact that they were in an illiquid market. Transfers between levels are reflected as of the end of the quarter. On June 30, 2010, the Corporation transferred $756,000 of CMOs and REMICs, $31.6 million of residential mortgage-backed securities and $352.4 million of GNMA securities from level 3 to level 2 during the three month period ending June 30, 2010 due to improvements in the market for these securities.

An independent pricing service is used to price available-for-sale U.S. government and federal agency obligations, corporate stock and other, Agency CMOs and REMICs, and residential mortgage-backed securities using a market data model under Level 2. The significant inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including market research publications.
Available-for-sale non-agency CMO securities are valued by an independent pricing service using a discounted cash flow model that utilizes Level 3 inputs. The significant inputs used by the model include 30 to 59 day delinquency of 0% to 7.0%, 60 to 89 day delinquency of 0% to 3.1%, 90 plus day delinquency of 0% to 15.6%, loss severity of 23.1% to 52.9%, yields of 4.5% to 7.5%, conditional repayment rates of 5.1% to 24.1%, discount rates of 4.0% to 14.0%, and current credit support of 1.9% to 28.4%.
A pricing service was used to value our investment securities and mortgage-related securities as of June 30, 2010. The Corporation utilized fair value estimates obtained from an independent pricing service as of June 30, 2010 for all non-agency mortgage-related securities over $100,000. The Corporation obtained fair value estimates on 99.8% of the non-agency CMO portfolio from an independent pricing service as of June 30, 2010. These estimates were determined using a discounted cash flow model in accordance with the guidance provided in ASC 820-10-65. The significant inputs to the discounted cash flow model are prepayment speeds of 5.1% to 24.2%, default rates of 0.4% to 12.7%, loss severities of 23.1% to 52.9% and discount rates of 4.0% to 14.0%.
Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The following table presents such assets carried on the consolidated balance sheet by caption and by level within the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010 (in thousands):

The Corporation does not record impaired loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. The specific reserves for collateral dependent impaired loans are based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of collateral was determined based on appraisals. In some cases, adjustments were made to the appraised values due to various factors including age of the appraisal, age of comparables included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market and in the collateral. When significant adjustments were based on unobservable inputs, the resulting fair value measurement has been categorized as a Level 3 measurement.
Mortgage servicing rights are recorded as an asset when loans are sold to third parties with servicing rights retained. The cost allocated to the mortgage servicing rights retained has been recognized as a separate asset and is initially recorded at fair value and amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. The carrying value of these assets is periodically reviewed for impairment using a lower of carrying value or fair value methodology. The fair value of the servicing rights is determined by estimating the present value of future net cash flows, taking into consideration market loan prepayment speeds, discount rates, servicing costs and other economic factors. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified based on predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans which include product type (i.e., fixed or adjustable) and interest rate bands. The amount of impairment recognized is the amount by which the capitalized mortgage servicing rights on a loan-by-loan basis exceed their fair value. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.
Foreclosed properties and repossessed assets, upon initial recognition, are measured and reported at the lesser of carrying cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell through a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses based upon the fair value of the foreclosed asset. The fair value of foreclosed properties and repossessed assets, upon initial recognition, are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals adjusted for market discounts. Foreclosed properties and repossessed assets are re-measured at fair value after initial recognition through the use of a valuation allowance on foreclosed assets.

Note 12 — Credit Agreement
The Corporation owes $116.3 million to various lenders led by U.S. Bank under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated June 9, 2008, as amended (the Credit Agreement) among the Corporation, the lenders from time to time a party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent for such lenders, or the “Agent.”. The Corporation is currently in default of the Credit Agreement as a result of failure to make a principal payment on March 2, 2009. On April 29, 2010, the Corporation entered into Amendment No. 6 (the Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement. Under the Amendment, the Agent and the lenders agree to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies against the Corporation until the earliest to occur of the following: (i) the occurrence of any Event of Default (other than a failure to make principal payments on the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement or other existing defaults); or (ii) May 31, 2011. Notwithstanding the agreement to forbear, the Agent may at any time, in its sole discretion, take any action reasonably necessary to preserve or protect its interest in the stock of the Bank, Investment Directions, Inc. or any other collateral securing any of the obligations against the actions of the Corporation or any third party without notice to or the consent of any party.
The Amendment also provides that the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement shall bear interest equal to a “Base Rate” of 0% per annum up to and including April 28, 2010 and at all times thereafter at a floating rate per annum equal to the prime rate announced by the Agent from time to time, plus a “Deferred Interest Rate” of 4.0% per annum up to and including April 28, 2010 and at all times thereafter, the difference at any time between 12.0% per annum and the Base Rate. Interest accruing at the Base Rate is due on the last day of each month and on May 31, 2011; interest accruing at the Deferred Interest Rate is due on the earlier of (i) the date the Loans are paid in full or (ii) May 31, 2011. At June 30, 2010, the Corporation had accrued interest payable related to the Credit agreement of $8.4 million and accrued amendment fee payable related to the Credit Agreement of $4.7 million.
Within two business days after the Corporation has knowledge of an “event,” the CFO shall submit a statement of the event together with a statement of the actions which the Corporation proposes to take to the Agent. An event may include:
| • | | Any event which, either of itself or with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute a Default under the Credit Agreement; |
|
| • | | A default or an event of default under any other material agreement to which the Corporation or Bank is a party; or |
|
| • | | Any pending or threatened litigation or certain administrative proceedings. |
Within 15 days after the end of each month, the Corporation’s president or vice president shall submit a certificate indicating whether the Corporation is in compliance with the following financial covenants:
| • | | The Bank shall maintain a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of not less than (i) 3.75% at all times during the period from April 29, 2010 through May 31, 2010, (ii) 3.85% at all times during the period from June 1, 2010 through August 31, 2010, (iii) 3.90% at all times during the period from September 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010 and (iv) 3.95% at all times thereafter. |
|
| • | | The Bank shall maintain a Total Risk Based Capital ratio of not less than (i) 7.10% at all times during the period from April 29, 2010 through May 31, 2010, (ii) 7.35% at all times during the period from June 1, 2010 through August 31, 2010, (iii) 7.60% at all times during the period from September 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010 and (iv) 7.65% at all times thereafter. |
|
| • | | The ratio of Non-Performing Loans to Gross Loans shall not exceed (i) 14.50% at any time during the period from April 29, 2010 through May 31, 2010, (ii) 13.00% at any time during the period from June 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010, (iii) 12.50% at any time during the period from October 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010, (iv) 12.00% at any time during the period from December 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010, (v) 11.00% at any time during the period from April 1, 2011 through April 30, 2011 and (vi) 10.00% at all times thereafter. |
The total outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2010 was $116.3 million. These borrowings are shown in the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements as other borrowed funds. The
28
Amendment provides that the Corporation must pay in full the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement on the earlier of the Corporation’s receipt of net proceeds of a financing transaction from the sale of equity securities in an amount not less than $116.3 million or May 31, 2011.
The Credit Agreement and the Amendment also contain customary representations, warranties, conditions and events of default for agreements of such type. At June 30, 2010, the Corporation was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended on April 29, 2010. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended on April 29, 2010, the Agent and the Lenders have certain rights, including the right to accelerate the maturity of the borrowings if all covenants are not complied with. Currently, no such action has been taken by the Agent or the Lenders. However, the default creates significant uncertainty related to the Corporation’s operations.
Note 13 — Capital Purchase Program
Pursuant to the Capital Purchase Program (CPP), the U.S. Treasury, on behalf of the U.S. government, purchased preferred stock, along with warrants to purchase common stock, from certain financial institutions, including bank holding companies, savings and loan holding companies and banks or savings associations not controlled by a holding company. The investment will have a dividend rate of 5% per year, until the fifth anniversary of Treasury’s investment and a dividend of 9% thereafter. During the time Treasury holds securities issued pursuant to this program, participating financial institutions will be required to comply with certain provisions regarding executive compensation and corporate governance. Participation in the CPP also imposes certain restrictions upon an institution’s dividends to common shareholders and stock repurchase activities. We elected to participate in the CPP and received $110 million. We have deferred five dividend payments on the Series B Preferred Stock held by Treasury. After we defer six dividend payments, we will discontinue the accrual of dividends. If we defer one more dividend payment, Treasury will have the right to appoint two individuals to our board.
Note 14 — Branch Sales
On June 25, 2010, the Corporation completed the sale of 11 branches located in Northwest Wisconsin to Royal Credit Union headquartered in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Royal Credit Union assumed approximately $171.2 million in deposits and acquired $61.8 million in loans and $9.8 million in office properties and equipment. The net gain on the sale was $4.9 million. The net gain included a $3.9 million core deposit intangible impairment that was required when designated core deposits were sold in this transaction.
On July 23, 2010, the Corporation completed the sale of 4 branches located in Green Bay, Wisconsin and surrounding communities to Nicolet National Bank headquartered in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Nicolet National Bank assumed $105.1 million in deposits and acquired $24.8 million in loans and $0.4 million in office properties and equipment. The net gain on the sale was $2.5 million.

Critical Accounting Policies
There are a number of accounting policies that require the use of judgment. Some of the more significant policies are as follows:
| • | | Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their amortized cost that are deemed to be other than temporary due to credit loss are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses on debt securities, management considers many factors which include: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. To determine if an other-than-temporary impairment exists on a debt security, the Corporation first determines if (a) it intends to sell the security or (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. If either of the conditions are met, the Corporation will recognize an other-than-temporary impairment in earnings equal to the difference between the fair value of the security and its adjusted cost. If neither of the conditions are met, the Corporation determines (a) the amount of the impairment related to credit loss and (b) the amount of the impairment due to all other factors. The difference between the present values of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis is the credit loss. The credit loss is the amount of the other-than-temporary impairment that is recognized in earnings and is a reduction to the cost basis of the security. The amount of total impairment related to all other factors is included in other comprehensive income (loss). |
|
| • | | The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable and inherent losses incurred in the loan portfolio. The allowance is comprised of both a specific component and a general component. Specific allowances are provided on impaired loans pursuant to accounting standards. The general allowance is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative and environmental factors pursuant to ASC 450-2 “Loss Contingencies” and other related regulatory guidance. At least quarterly, we review the assumptions and methodology related to the general allowance in an effort to update and refine the estimate. |
|
| | | In determining the general allowance we have segregated the loan portfolio by collateral type. By doing so we are better able to identify trends in borrower behavior and loss severity. For each collateral type, we compute a historical loss factor. In determining the appropriate period of activity to use in computing the historical loss factor we look at trends in quarterly net charge-off ratios. It is our intention to utilize a period of activity that we believe to be most reflective of current experience. Changes in the historical period are made when there is a distinct change in the trend of net charge-off experience. Given the changes in the credit market that have occurred in fiscal years 2009 and 2010, management reviewed each strata’s historical losses by quarter for any trends that would indicate a shorter look back period would be more representative. |
|
| | | In addition to the historical loss factor, we consider the impact of the following qualitative factors: changes in lending policies, procedures and practices, economic and industry trends and conditions, experience, ability and depth of lending management, level of and trends in past dues and delinquent loans, changes in the quality of the loan review system, changes in the value of the underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans, changes in credit concentrations, portfolio size and other external factors such as legal and regulatory. In determining the impact, if any, of an individual qualitative factor, we compare the current underlying facts and circumstances surrounding a particular factor with those in the historical periods, adjusting the historical loss factor in a directionally consistent manner with changes in the qualitative factor. We will continue to analyze the qualitative factors on a quarterly basis, adjusting the historical loss factor both up and down, to a factor we believe is appropriate for the probable and inherent risk of loss in our portfolio. |
|
| | | Specific allowances are determined as a result of our loan review process. When a loan is identified as impaired it is evaluated for loss using either the fair value of collateral less selling costs or a discounted cash flow analysis as a determinant of fair value. If fair value exceeds the Bank’s carrying value of the |
33
| | | loan no loss is anticipated and no specific reserve is established. However, if the Bank’s carrying value of the loan is greater than fair value a specific reserve is established. In either situation, loans identified as impaired are excluded from the calculation of the general reserve. |
|
| | | We regularly obtain updated appraisals for real estate collateral dependent loans for which we deem it appropriate to assess whether or not a specific asset is impaired. Loans having unpaid principal balance of $500,000 or less and considered to be include in a homogenous pool of assets do not require an impairment analysis therefore updated appraisals are not obtained until the foreclosure or sheriff sale occurs. Due to certain limitations, including, but not limited to, the availability of qualified appraisers, the time necessary to complete acceptable appraisals, the availability of comparable market data and information, and other considerations, in certain instances current appraisals are not readily available. The fair value of such loans for which current and acceptable appraisals are not available is approximately $74.4 million based on the Corporation’s best estimate of fair value, discounted at various rates depending on the collateral type. |
|
| | | Collateral dependent loans are considered to be non-performing at such time that they become ninety days past due or a probable loss is expected. At the time a loan is determined to be non-performing it is downgraded per the Corporation’s loan rating system, it is placed on non-accrual, and an allowance consistent with the Corporation’s historical experience for similar “substandard” loans is established. Within ninety days of this determination a comprehensive analysis of the loans is completed, including ordering new appraisals, where necessary, and an adjustment to the estimated allowance is recognized to reflect the fair value of the loan based on the underlying collateral or the discounted cash flows. Until such date at which an updated appraisal is obtained, when deemed necessary, the Corporation applies discounts to the existing appraisals in estimating the fair value of collateral. These discounts are 25 percent on commercial real estate and 35 percent on unimproved land if the appraisal is over one year old. These discount percentages are based on actual experience over the past nine month period. If the appraisal is within one year, the Corporation applies a discount of 15 percent. The Corporation believes these discounts reflect market factors, the locations in which the collateral is located and the estimated cost to dispose. |
|
| | | We consider the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2010 to be at an acceptable level. Although we believe that we have established and maintained the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level, changes may be necessary if future economic and other conditions differ substantially from the current environment. Although we use the best information available, the level of the allowance for loan losses remains an estimate that is subject to significant judgment and short-term change. |
|
| • | | Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure and other repossessed assets, upon initial recognition, is recorded at fair value, less estimated selling expenses. Each parcel of real estate owned is appraised within six months of the time of acquisition of such property and periodically thereafter. At the date of foreclosure any write down to fair value less estimated selling costs is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property are capitalized; holding period costs and subsequent changes to the valuation allowance are charged to expense. Foreclosed properties and repossessed assets are re-measured at fair value after initial recognition through the use of a valuation allowance on foreclosed assets. The value may be adjusted based on a new appraisal or as a result of an adjustment to the sale price of the property. |
|
| • | | Mortgage servicing rights are established on loans that are originated and subsequently sold with servicing retained. A portion of the loan’s book basis is allocated to mortgage servicing rights at the time of sale. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is the present value of estimated future net cash flows from the servicing relationship using current market participant assumptions for prepayments or defaults, servicing costs and other factors. As the loans are repaid and net servicing revenue is earned, mortgage servicing rights are amortized into expense. Net servicing revenues are expected to exceed this amortization expense. However, if actual prepayment experience or defaults exceed what was originally anticipated, net servicing revenues may be less than expected and mortgage servicing rights may be impaired. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. |
34
| • | | The Corporation provides for federal income taxes with a deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset computed by applying the current statutory tax rates to net taxable or deductible differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future periods. The Corporation regularly reviews the carrying amount of its deferred tax assets to determine if the establishment of a valuation allowance is necessary. If based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the Corporation’s deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods, a deferred tax valuation allowance would be established. Consideration is given to various positive and negative factors that could affect the realization of the deferred tax assets. |
|
| | | In evaluating this available evidence, management considers, among other things, historical financial performance, expectation of future earnings, the ability to carry back losses to recoup taxes previously paid, length of statutory carry forward periods, experience with operating loss and tax credit carry forwards not expiring unused, tax planning strategies and timing of reversals of temporary differences. Significant judgment is required in assessing future earning trends and the timing of reversals of temporary differences. The Corporation’s evaluation is based on current tax laws as well as management’s expectations of future performance. |
|
| | | As a result of its evaluation, the Corporation has recorded a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax asset. |

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General. Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased $52.9 million or 81.3% to a net loss of $12.2 million from a net loss of $65.1 million as compared to the same respective period in the prior year. The decrease in net loss for the three-month period compared to the same period last year was largely due to a decrease in provision for loan losses of $61.5 million and a decrease in non-interest expense of $3.6 million, which were partially offset by a decrease in net interest income of $6.1 million and a decrease in non-interest income of $6.0 million.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $6.1 million or 24.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year. Interest income decreased $15.7 million or 26.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in the prior year. Interest expense decreased $9.6 million or 27.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The net interest margin decreased to 1.85% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 from 1.99% for the three-month period in the prior year. The change in the net interest margin reflects the decrease in yield on interest-earning assets from 4.80% to 4.37% during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets is primarily the result of the reversal of $6.1 million of interest income on non-accrual loans as well as the decline in interest rates. The interest rate spread decreased to 1.95% from 2.01% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year.
Interest income on loans decreased $13.1 million or 24.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of 28 basis points in the average yield on loans to 5.11% from 5.39% for the three-month period. The decrease in the yield on loans was due to the level of loans on non-accrual status as well as a modest decline in rates on loans. In addition, the average balances of loans decreased $805.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest income on investment securities decreased $2.6 million or 43.0% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year, due to a decrease of $81.0 million in the three-month average balance of investment securities as well as a decrease of 157 basis points in the average yield on investment securities to 3.41% from 4.98% for the three-month period. This decrease reflects management’s change in mix of investment securities to a lower risk weighted category. Interest income on interest-bearing deposits decreased $19,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective periods in 2009, primarily due to a decrease in the average balances offset by increases in the average yields for the three-month period.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $8.3 million or 34.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in 2009. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of 62 basis points in the weighted average cost of deposits to 1.81% from 2.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as well as a decrease in the average balance of deposits and accrued interest of $483.4 million, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year. The decrease in the cost of deposits was due to the fact that certificates are repricing at lower rates and interest rates on demand deposits have declined. Interest expense on other borrowed funds decreased $1.3 million or 11.8% during the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year. The weighted average cost of other borrowed funds increased 114 basis points to 5.31% from 4.17% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective periods last year due to the fact that we incurred an amendment fee which is being amortized to interest expense and the weighted average rate on borrowings increased over the prior year. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, the average balance of other borrowed funds decreased $326.3 million, as compared to the same respective period in 2009.
Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan losses decreased $61.5 million or 87.3% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period last year. Through significant efforts in the credit area to gain a thorough understanding of the risk within the portfolio, management evaluates a variety of qualitative and quantitative factors when determining the adequacy of the allowance for losses. The provisions were based on management’s ongoing evaluation of asset quality and pursuant to a policy to maintain an allowance for losses at a level which management believes is adequate to absorb probable and inherent losses on loans as of the balance sheet date.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $6.0 million or 30.3% to $13.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as compared to $19.6 million for the same respective period in 2009. The decrease for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 was primarily due to the decrease in net gain on sale of loans of $10.1 million as a result of decreased refinancing activity. In addition, net gain on sale of investment securities decreased $1.4 million due to fewer sales, other revenue from real estate operations decreased $525,000 due to the fact that we sold the majority of the real estate segment in September 2009, other non-interest income decreased $323,000 and credit enhancement income decreased $124,000. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in net gain on sale of branches of $4.9 million due to sale of 11 branches in Northwest Wisconsin in the current year. In addition, loan servicing income increased $1.4 million due to decreased amortization of mortgage servicing rights in the current period, investment and insurance commissions increased $152,000 and net impairment losses recognized in earnings decreased $127,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same respective period in the prior year.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased $3.6 million or 9.1% to $35.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to $39.3 million for the same respective period in 2009. The decrease for the three-month period was primarily due to a decrease of $3.7 million in foreclosure cost impairment. In addition, compensation expense decreased $2.5 million due to decreased incentives in the current year, federal insurance premiums decreased $1.5 million due to a special assessment in the prior year, other expenses from real estate operations decreased $949,000 due to the fact that we sold the majority of the real estate segment in September 2009, data processing expense decreased $360,000, furniture and equipment expense decreased $288,000 and net expense from REO operations decreased 288,000. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in other non-interest expense of $4.6 million primarily due to increased legal expenses from foreclosure activity and increased consulting expenses for the review of the loan portfolio and concentrations as well as evaluating business and staffing practices and an increase in mortgage servicing rights impairment (recovery) of $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Income Taxes. Income taxes were zero during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The effective tax rate was 0% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. A full valuation allowance has been recorded on the net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of the Corporation to create sufficient taxable income in the near future to fully utilize it.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Corporation’s assets decreased by $417.3 million from $4.42 billion at March 31, 2010 to $4.00 billion at June 30, 2010. The majority of this decrease was attributable to a decrease of $277.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $184.3 million in loans receivable as well as a decrease of $11.1 million in office properties and equipment, which were partially offset by a $69.0 million increase in investment securities available for sale.
Total loans (including loans held for sale) decreased $184.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010. Activity for the period consisted of (i) sales of one to four family loans to the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of $136.6 million, (ii) loans sold as part of the branch sale of $61.8 million, (iii) principal repayments and other adjustments (the majority of which are undisbursed loan proceeds) of $140.6 million, (iv) transfer to foreclosed properties and repossessed assets of $10.2 million and (v) originations, refinances and purchases of $164.9 billion.
Investment securities (both available for sale and held to maturity) increased $69.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010 as a result of purchases of $123.0 million and fair value adjustments, amortization and accretion of $6.8 million, which were partially offset by sales of $46.3 million and principal repayments of $14.5 million in this period.
Investment securities are subject to inherent risks based upon the future performance of the underlying collateral (i.e., mortgage loans) for these securities. Among these risks are prepayment risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Should general interest rate levels decline, the mortgage-related securities portfolio would be subject to (i) prepayments as borrowers typically would seek to obtain financing at lower rates, (ii) a decline in interest income received on adjustable-rate mortgage-related securities, and (iii) an increase in fair value of fixed-rate mortgage-related securities. Conversely, should general interest rate levels increase, the mortgage-related securities portfolio
38
would be subject to (i) a longer term to maturity as borrowers would be less likely to prepay their loans, (ii) an increase in interest income received on adjustable-rate mortgage-related securities, (iii) a decline in fair value of fixed-rate mortgage-related securities, (iv) a decline in fair value of adjustable-rate mortgage-related securities to an extent dependent upon the level of interest rate increases, the time period to the next interest rate repricing date for the individual security and the applicable periodic (annual and/or lifetime) cap which could limit the degree to which the individual security could reprice within a given time period, and (v) should default rates and loss severities increase on the underlying collateral of mortgage-related securities, the Corporation may experience credit losses that need to be recognized in earnings as an other-than-temporary impairment.
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock remained constant during the three months ended June 30, 2010. The Corporation views its investment in the FHLB stock as a long-term investment. Accordingly, when evaluating for impairment, the value is determined based on the ultimate recovery of the par value rather than recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recovery is influenced by criteria such as: 1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLBs as compared to the capital stock amount and length of time a decline has persisted; 2) impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the FHLB and 3) the liquidity position of the FHLB.
The FHLB of Chicago filed an SEC Form 10-Q on May 13, 2010 announcing its financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2010. The FHLB of Chicago reported net income for the first quarter of $1 million, compared to a net loss of $39 million for the same period in the previous year. This $40 million increase in net income was due to a $42 million reduction in other-than-temporary-impairments on investment securities. Retained earnings at March 31, 2010 was $709 million, or a decrease of $25 million from March 31, 2009. The FHLB of Chicago reported that they are in compliance with all of their regulatory capital requirements as of the filing date of their 10-Q. The FHLB Chicago is under a cease and desist order that precludes any capital stock repurchases or redemptions without the approval of the OS Director. It did not pay any dividends in 2009. The Corporation has concluded that its investment in the FHLB Chicago is not impaired as of this date. However, this estimate could change in the near term by the following: 1) significant OTTI losses are incurred on the MBS causing a significant decline in their regulatory capital status; 2) the economic losses resulting from credit deterioration on the MBS increases significantly and 3) capital preservation strategies being utilized by the FHLB become ineffective.
Foreclosed properties and repossessed assets decreased $6.0 million to $49.4 million at June 30, 2010 from $55.4 million at March 31, 2010 due to (i) sales of $13.2 million and (ii) additional write downs of various properties of $3.1 million. These decreases were partially offset by transfers in of $10.2 million.
Net deferred tax assets were zero at June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2009 due to a valuation allowance on the entire balance. The valuation allowance is necessary as the recovery of the net deferred asset is not more likely than not. It is uncertain if the Corporation can generate taxable income in the near future. An allowance of $1.7 million was placed on the deferred tax asset during the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Total liabilities decreased $411.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease was largely due to a $327.4 million decrease in deposits and accrued interest of which $171.4 million was due to the branch sale and the remainder was due to deposit runnoff and an $86.8 million decrease in other borrowed funds due to the payoff of FHLB advances offset by a $2.6 million increase in other liabilities. Brokered deposits totaled $154.0 million or approximately 4.8% of total deposits at June 30, 2010 and $173.5 million at March 31, 2010, and generally mature within one to five years.
Stockholders’ equity decreased $5.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010 as a net result of (i) comprehensive loss of $4.3 million and (ii) accrual of dividends on preferred stock of $1.5 million. These decreases were partially offset by the issuance of shares for management and benefit plans of $22,000.

Non-performing loans (consisting of loans past due more than 90 days, loans less than 90 days delinquent but placed on non-accrual status due to anticipated probable loss and non-accrual troubled debt restructurings) increased $3.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010. Non-performing assets decreased $2.5 million to $422.0 million at June 30, 2010 from $424.5 million at March 31, 2010 and increased as a percentage of total assets to 10.55% from 9.61% at such dates, respectively. The increase in non-performing loans at June 30, 2010 was the result of an increase of $14.7 million in non-performing single-family residential loans, $410,000 in non-performing multi-family residential loans and $348,000 in non-performing consumer loans. These increases were offset.by a decrease of $2.8 million in non-performing construction and land loans, $8.8 million in non-performing commercial real estate loans and $331,000 in non-performing commercial business loans

Loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring due to rate or term concessions that are currently on non-accrual status will remain on non-accrual status for a period of at least six months. If after six months, or a period sufficient enough to demonstrate the willingness and ability of the borrower to perform under the modified terms, the borrower has made payments in accordance with the modified terms, the loan is returned to accrual status but retains its status as a troubled debt restructuring. The designation as a troubled debt restructuring is removed in years after the restructuring if both of the following conditions exist: (a) the restructuring agreement specifies an interest rate
41
equal to or greater than the rate that the creditor was willing to accept at the time of restructuring for a new loan with comparable risk and (b) the loan is not impaired based on the terms specified by the restructuring agreement.
The increase in loans considered troubled debt restructurings — non-accrual of $18.3 million to $62.9 million at June 30, 2010 from $44.6 million at March 31, 2010 is a result of a significant loan relationship reclassified to troubled debt restructurings — non-accrual status from troubled debt restructurings — accrual. As time passes and borrowers continue to perform in accordance with the restructured loan terms, we expect a portion of this balance to be returned to accrual status.
Beginning late in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, management began significant efforts in the credit risk area to obtain a thorough understanding of the risk within the loan portfolio and to take action to eliminate or limit any further material adverse consequences. These efforts include the following:
| 1. | | Realignment of the corporate structure to ensure that risk is adequately and appropriately identified, mitigated and where possible, eliminated: |
| • | | Appointment of a Chief Risk Officer responsible for overseeing all aspects of corporate risk. |
|
| • | | Creation of a Special Assets Group to properly assess potential collateral shortfall exposure and to develop workout plans. |
|
| • | | Development of a risk management framework. |
| 2. | | Creation and implementation of a new loan risk rating system using qualitative metrics to identify loans with potential risk so they could be properly classified and monitored. |
|
| 3. | | Implementation of a new enhanced impairment analysis to evaluate all classified loans. |
|
| 4. | | Introduction of a new Allowance for Loan and Lease Policy that improves the timeliness of specific reserves taken for the allowance for loan and lease calculation. |
|
| 5. | | Analysis of the population of recent appraisals received and developed a specific reserve amount to capture the probable deterioration in value. |
|
| 6. | | Establishment of an independent underwriting group that evaluates the total borrowing relationship using a global cash flow methodology. |
|
| 7. | | Proactive monitoring of matured and delinquent loans. |
|
| 8. | | Proactive review of the performing (non-impaired) portfolio. |
|
| 9. | | Development of resolution plan on all classified assets. |
|
| 10. | | Introduction of a portfolio management team. |
As a result of these continued efforts, management has a clearer understanding of the non-performing loans and related probable and inherent losses within the loan portfolio. While no assurances can be given as to whether significant increases in the level of non-performing loans and the ALLL through additional provisions for loan losses will be required in the future, we believe the magnitude of the initial increase in non-performing loans and in the level of non-performing loans and the provisions that were taken in fiscal 2010 and 2009 are a result of our efforts described above and are not indicative of a trend for the future.

Delinquent loans decreased $64.0 million to $43.0 million at June 30, 2010 from $107.0 million at March 31, 2010 as a result of increased monitoring and loss mitigation efforts.
The interest income that would have been recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2010 if the Bank’s non-performing loans at the end of the period had been current in accordance with their terms during the period was $6.2 million. The amount of interest income attributable to these loans and included in interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.9 million.
At June 30, 2010, the Corporation has identified $375.3 million of loans as impaired, net of allowances and including performing troubled debt restructurings. A loan is identified as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. A summary of the details regarding impaired loans follows:

Allowances for Loan and Lease Losses. Like all financial institutions, we must maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when we believe that repayment of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that we believe will be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on evaluation of the collectability of loans and prior credit loss experience, together with the other factors noted earlier.
Our allowance for loan loss methodology incorporates several quantitative and qualitative risk factors used to establish the appropriate allowance for loan loss at each reporting date. Quantitative factors include our historical loss experience, peer group experience, delinquency and charge-off trends, collateral values, changes in non-performing loans, other factors, and information about individual loans including the borrower’s sensitivity to interest rate movements. Qualitative factors include the economic condition of our operating markets and the state of certain industries. Specific changes in the risk factors are based on perceived risk of similar groups of loans classified by collateral type, purpose and terms. Statistics on local trends, peers, and an internal three-year loss history are also incorporated into the allowance. Due to the credit concentration of our loan portfolio in real estate secured loans, the value of collateral is heavily dependent on real estate values in Wisconsin and surrounding states. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, the OTS, as an integral part of their examination processes, periodically reviews the Banks’ allowance for loan losses, and may require us to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the
44
time of their examinations. Management periodically reviews the assumptions and formula used in determining the allowance and makes adjustments if required to reflect the current risk profile of the portfolio.
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific allowance relates to impaired loans. For such loans, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan, pursuant to ASC 450-20 “Loss Contingencies.” The general allowance covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for the various qualitative and quantitative factors listed above, pursuant to ASC 450-20 and other related regulatory guidance. Loans graded substandard and below are individually examined closely to determine the appropriate loan loss reserve.
The following table summarizes the activity in our allowance for loan losses for the period indicated.

Total loan charge-offs were $22.2 million and $69.2 million for the three months ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total loan charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased $47.0 million from the prior fiscal year. The decrease in charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was largely due to a decrease of $23.0 million in construction and land loan charge-offs, a $11.8 million decrease in commercial business loan charge-offs, a $11.2 million decrease in commercial real estate charge-offs and a $3.3 million decrease in multi-family residential charge-offs, which was offset in part by a $2.4 million increase in single-family residential loan charge-offs and a $63,000 increase in consumer loan charge-offs. Recoveries decreased $800,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2010.

The provision for loan losses decreased $61.5 million to $8.9 million for the three months ending June 30, 2010 compared to $70.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in the provision for loan losses is the result of management’s ongoing evaluation of the loan portfolio. The provision for the quarter is not compensatory to the level of net charge-offs of $21.9 million due to the fact that reserves had been substantially established for the loans charged off. Management considered the change in non-performing loans to total loans to 11.52% at June 30, 2010 from 10.74% at March 31, 2010 as well as the change in total non-performing assets to total assets to 10.55% at June 30, 2010 from 9.61% at March 31, 2010 in determining the provision for loan losses. Although these ratios have increased, these increases are primarily a result of a decrease in the loan portfolio and not an increase in the amount of non-performing loans. The amount of non-performing loans has remained relatively constant in the current quarter.
The allowance for loan loss decreased approximately $13 million since March 31, 2010. The loan balance of non-impaired loans decreased approximately $192 million resulting in a decrease in allowance of approximately $3 million. In addition, there was a decrease of approximately $10 million in allowance associated with pending appraisals received during the current quarter that reflected that additional allowance was not necessary.
The table below shows the Corporation’s allocation of the allowance for loan losses by loan loss reserve category at the dates indicated.

Management increased the allowance for the single-family residential loan portfolio due to analysis of individual spec builders which indicate potential losses due to the slow down of residential real estate transactions. Of the $22.4 million allocated to single-family residential, $8.3 million relates to specific credits. The allowance allocation for the commercial real estate loan portfolio increased primarily due to the analysis of individual credits which required allocation of additional reserves for probable loss as well as the increase in non-performing loans. Approximately 52% of the allowance allocated to commercial real estate and construction and land categories are related to specific loans. Of the $28.9 million allocated to commercial business, $8.9 million is related to specific loans. Overall, of the Corporation’s $166.6 million allowance for loan losses, $59.8 million is related to specific loans.
The allowance process is analyzed regularly, with modifications made if needed, and those results are reported four times per year to the Bank’s Board of Directors. Although management believes that the June 30, 2010 allowance
46
for loan losses is adequate based upon the current evaluation of loan delinquencies, non-performing assets, charge-off trends, economic conditions and other factors, there can be no assurance that future adjustments to the allowance will not be necessary. Management also continues to pursue all practical and legal methods of collection, repossession and disposal, and adheres to high underwriting standards in the origination process in order to continue to maintain strong asset quality. Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS, which can order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances.
Foreclosed Properties and Repossessed Assets. Foreclosed properties and repossessed assets (also known as other real estate owned or OREO) decreased $6.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010. Individual properties included in OREO at June 30, 2010 with a recorded balance in excess of $1 million are listed below:

Some properties were transferred to OREO at a value that was based upon a discounted cash flow of the property upon completion of the project. Factors that were considered include the cost to complete a project, absorption rates and projected sales of units. The appraisal received at the time the loan was made is no longer considered applicable and therefore the properties are analyzed on a periodic basis to determine the current net realizable value.
On a quarterly basis, the Corporation reviews its list prices of its OREO properties and makes appropriate adjustments based upon updated appraisals or market analysis by brokers.
The Corporation’s loan portfolio, foreclosed properties and repossessed assets are evaluated on a continuing basis to determine the necessity for additions and recaptures to the allowance for loan losses and the related adequacy of the balance in the allowance for loan losses account. See the discussion on the allowance for loan losses under the Significant Accounting Policies section for a discussion of our methodology. Foreclosed properties are recorded at fair value with charge-offs, if any, charged to the allowance for loan losses upon transfer to foreclosed property. Subsequent decreases in the valuation of foreclosed properties are recorded as a write-down of the foreclosed property with a corresponding charge to expense. The fair value is primarily based on appraisals, discounted cash flow analysis (the majority of which is based on current occupancy and lease rates) and pending offers.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On an unconsolidated basis, the Corporation’s sources of funds include dividends from its subsidiaries, including the Bank, interest on its investments and returns on its real estate held for sale. As a condition of the Cease and Desist Order with the OTS and the receipt of funding from the U.S. Treasury through the Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”), the Bank is currently not allowed to pay dividends to the Corporation. The Bank’s primary sources of funds are payments on loans and securities, deposits from retail and wholesale sources, FHLB advances and other borrowings. The Bank is currently prohibited from obtaining new brokered CDs per the terms and conditions of the Cease and Desist Order. We also rely on advances from the FHLB of Chicago as a funding source. We have also been granted access to the Fed fund line with a correspondent bank as well as the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago’s discount window, none of which had been borrowed as of June 30, 2010. In addition as of June 30, 2010, the Corporation had outstanding borrowings from the FHLB of $525.1 million, out of our maximum borrowing capacity of $703.2 million, from the FHLB at this time.
On January 30, 2009, as part of the United States Department of the Treasury (the “UST”) Capital Purchase Program, the Corporation entered into a Letter Agreement with the UST. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement — Standard Terms (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) the Corporation issued the UST 110,000 shares of the Corporation’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the “Preferred Stock”), having a liquidation amount per share of $1,000, for a total purchase price of $110,000,000. The Preferred Stock will pay cumulative compounding dividends at a rate of 5% per year for the first five years following issuance and 9% per year thereafter. The Corporation has deferred the payment of dividends during the quarters ending June 30, 2009, September 30, 2009, December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010. If the Corporation defers the quarterly dividend payment six times (whether consecutive or not), the Corporation’s Board shall automatically expand by two members and UST (or the then current holder of the preferred stock) may elect two directors at the next annual meeting and at every subsequent annual meeting until the dividend is paid in full. The Corporation may not redeem the Preferred Stock during the first three years following issuance except with the proceeds from one or more qualified equity offerings. After three years, the Corporation may redeem shares of the Preferred Stock for the per share liquidation amount of $1,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.
As long as any Preferred Stock is outstanding, the Corporation may pay dividends on its Common Stock, $.10 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and redeem or repurchase its Common Stock, provided that all accrued and unpaid dividends for all past dividend periods on the Preferred Stock are fully paid. Prior to the third anniversary of the UST’s purchase of the Preferred Stock, unless Preferred Stock has been redeemed or the UST has transferred all of the Preferred Stock to third parties, the consent of the UST will be required for the Corporation to increase its Common Stock dividend or repurchase its Common Stock or other equity or capital securities, other than in connection with benefit plans consistent with past practice and certain other circumstances specified in the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Preferred Stock will be non-voting except for class voting rights on matters that would adversely affect the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock.
As a condition to participating in the CPP, the Corporation issued and sold to the UST a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 7,399,103 shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, at an initial per share exercise price of $2.23, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $16,500,000. The term of the Warrant is ten years. Exercise of the Warrant was subject to the receipt by the Corporation of shareholder approval which was received at the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders. The Warrant provides for the adjustment of the exercise price should the Corporation not receive shareholder approval, as well as customary anti-dilution provisions. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the UST has agreed not to exercise voting power with respect to any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrant.
The terms of the UST’s purchase of the preferred securities include certain restrictions on certain forms of executive compensation and limits on the tax deductibility of compensation we pay to executive management. The Corporation invested the proceeds of the sale of Preferred Stock and Warrant in the Bank as Tier 1 capital.
At June 30, 2010, the Bank had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $22.9 million and commitments to extend funds to, or on behalf of, customers pursuant to lines and letters of credit of $219.8 million. Scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit for the Bank during the twelve months following June 30, 2010 amounted to $1.76 billion. Scheduled maturities of borrowings during the same period totaled $164.3 million for the Bank and
48
$124.2 million for the Corporation. Management believes adequate resources are available to fund all Bank commitments to the extent required. For more information regarding the Corporation’s borrowings, see “Credit Agreement” section below.
The Corporation previously participated in the Mortgage Partnership Finance Program of the FHLB of Chicago (MPF Program). Pursuant to the credit enhancement feature of the MPF Program, the Corporation has retained a secondary credit loss exposure in the amount of $21.6 million at June 30, 2010 related to approximately $861.5 million of residential mortgage loans that the Corporation has originated as agent for the FHLB. Under the credit enhancement, the FHLB is liable for losses on loans up to one percent of the original delivered loan balances in each pool. The Corporation is then liable for losses over and above the first position up to a contractually agreed-upon maximum amount in each pool that was delivered to the Program. The Corporation receives a monthly fee for this credit enhancement obligation based on the outstanding loan balances. Based on historical experience, the Corporation does not anticipate that any credit losses through the MPF Program will be incurred under the credit enhancement obligation. The MPF Program was discontinued in 2008 in its present format and the Corporation no longer funds loans through the MPF Program.
The Bank has entered into agreements with certain brokers that will provide deposits obtained from their customers at specified interest rates for an identified fee, or so called “brokered deposits.” At June 30, 2010, the Bank had $154.0 million of brokered deposits. At June 30, 2010, the Bank was under a Cease and Desist Order with the OTS which limits the Bank’s ability to accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits without prior approval of the OTS.
Under federal law and regulation, the Bank is required to meet certain tangible, core and risk-based capital requirements. Tangible capital generally consists of stockholders’ equity minus certain intangible assets. Core capital generally consists of tangible capital plus qualifying intangible assets. The risk-based capital requirements presently address credit risk related to both recorded and off-balance sheet commitments and obligations. The OTS requirement for the core capital ratio for the Bank is currently 3.00%. The requirement is 4.00% for all but the most highly-rated financial institutions.
The Cease and Desist Orders also required no later than December 31, 2009, that the Bank meet and maintain both a core capital ratio equal to or greater than 8 percent and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 12 percent. The Bank was required to submit to the OTS, and has submitted, a written capital contingency plan, a problem asset plan, a revised business plan, and an implementation plan resulting from a review of commercial lending practices. The Orders also required the Bank to review its current liquidity management policy and the adequacy of its allowance for loan and lease losses. The Bank has completed these reviews.
At September 30, 2009, December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, the Bank had a core capital ratio of 4.12%, 4.12%, 3.73% and 4.08%, respectively, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 7.36%, 7.59%, 7.32% and 7.63%, respectively, each below the required capital ratios set forth above. As a result, the OTS may take additional significant regulatory action against the Bank and Corporation which could, among other things, materially adversely affect the Corporation’s shareholders. All customer deposits remain fully insured to the highest limits set by the FDIC. The OTS may grant extensions to the timelines established by the Orders.
Our ability to meet our short-term liquidity and capital resource requirements may be subject to our ability to obtain additional debt financing and equity capital. We may increase our capital resources through offerings of equity securities (possibly including common shares and one or more classes of preferred shares), commercial paper, medium-term notes, securitization transactions structured as secured financings, and senior or subordinated notes. Through participation in the CPP, on January 30, 2009 we issued and sold preferred shares and warrants to the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

Credit Agreement
The Corporation owes $116.3 million to various lenders led by U.S. Bank under the Credit Agreement. The Corporation is currently in default of the Credit Agreement as a result of failure to make a principal payment on March 2, 2009. On April 29, 2010, the Corporation entered into Amendment No. 6 (the “Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 9, 2008, the “Credit Agreement,” among the Corporation, the lenders from time to time a party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent for such lenders, or the “Agent.” Under the Amendment, the Agent and the lenders agree to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies against the Corporation until the earliest to occur of the following: (i) the occurrence of any Event of Default (other than a failure to make principal payments on the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement or other existing defaults); or (ii) May 31, 2011. Notwithstanding the agreement to forbear, the Agent may at any time, in its sole discretion, take any action reasonably necessary to preserve or protect its interest in the stock of the Bank, Investment Directions, Inc. or any other collateral securing any of the obligations against the actions of the Corporation or any third party without notice to or the consent of any party.
The Amendment also provides that the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement shall bear interest equal to a “Base Rate” of 0% per annum up to and including April 28, 2010 and at all times thereafter at a floating rate per annum equal to the prime rate announced by the Agent from time to time, plus a “Deferred Interest Rate” of 4.0% per annum up to and including April 28, 2010 and at all times thereafter, the difference at any time between 12.0% per annum and the Base Rate. Interest accruing at the Base Rate is due on the last day of each month and on May 31, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”); interest accruing at the Deferred Interest Rate is due on the earlier of (i) the date the Loans are paid in full or (ii) the Maturity Date.
Within two business days after the Corporation has knowledge of an “event,” the CFO shall submit a statement of the event together with a statement of the actions which the Corporation proposes to take to the Agent. An event may include:
| • | | Any event which, either of itself or with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute a Default under the Credit Agreement; |
|
| • | | A default or an event of default under any other material agreement to which the Corporation or Bank is a party; or |
|
| • | | Any pending or threatened litigation or certain administrative proceedings. |
Within 15 days after the end of each month, the Corporation’s president or vice president shall submit a certificate indicating whether the Corporation is in compliance with the following financial covenants:
| • | | The Bank shall maintain a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of not less than (i) 3.75% at all times during the period from April 29, 2010 through May 31, 2010, (ii) 3.85% at all times during the period from June 1, 2010 through August 31, 2010, (iii) 3.90% at all times during the period from September 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010 and (iv) 3.95% at all times thereafter. |
|
| • | | The Bank shall maintain a Total Risk Based Capital ratio of not less than (i) 7.10% at all times during the period from April 29, 2010 through May 31, 2010, (ii) 7.35% at all times during the period from June 1, 2010 through August 31, 2010, (iii) 7.60% at all times during the period from September 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010 and (iv) 7.65% at all times thereafter. |
|
| • | | The ratio of Non-Performing Loans to Gross Loans shall not exceed (i) 14.50% at any time during the period from April 29, 2010 through May 31, 2010, (ii) 13.00% at any time during the period from June 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010, (iii) 12.50% at any time during the period from October 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010, (iv) 12.00% at any time during the period from December 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010, (v) 11.00% at any time during the period from April 1, 2011 through April 30, 2011 and (vi) 10.00% at all times thereafter. |
The total outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2010 was $116.3 million. These borrowings are shown in the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements as other borrowed funds. The Amendment provides that the Corporation must pay in full the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement on
51
the earlier of the Corporation’s receipt of net proceeds of a financing transaction from the sale of equity securities in an amount not less than $116.3 million or May 31, 2011.
The Credit Agreement and the Amendment also contain customary representations, warranties, conditions and events of default for agreements of such type. At June 30, 2010, the Corporation was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended on April 29, 2010. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended on April 29, 2010, the Agent and the Lenders have certain rights, including the right to accelerate the maturity of the borrowings if all covenants are not complied with. Currently, no such action has been taken by the Agent or the Lenders. However, the default creates significant uncertainty related to the Corporation’s operations.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The primary function of asset and liability management is to provide liquidity and maintain an appropriate balance between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities within specified maturities and/or repricing dates. Interest rate risk is the imbalance between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at a given maturity or repricing date, and is commonly referred to as the interest rate gap (the “gap”). A positive gap exists when there are more assets than liabilities maturing or repricing within the same time frame. A negative gap occurs when there are more liabilities than assets maturing or repricing within the same time frame. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap over a particular period would tend to adversely affect net interest income over such period, while a positive gap over a particular period would tend to result in an increase in net interest income over such period.
The Bank’s strategy for asset and liability management is to maintain an interest rate gap that minimizes the impact of interest rate movements on the net interest margin. As part of this strategy, the Bank sells substantially all new originations of long-term, fixed-rate, single-family residential mortgage loans in the secondary market, and invests in adjustable-rate or medium-term, fixed-rate, single-family residential mortgage loans, medium-term mortgage-related securities and consumer loans, which generally have shorter terms to maturity and higher interest rates than single-family mortgage loans.
The Bank also originates multi-family residential and commercial real estate loans, which generally have adjustable or floating interest rates and/or shorter terms to maturity than conventional single-family residential loans. Long-term, fixed-rate, single-family residential mortgage loans originated for sale in the secondary market are generally committed for sale at the time the interest rate is locked with the borrower. As such, these loans involve little interest rate risk to the Bank.
The calculation of a gap position requires management to make a number of assumptions as to when an asset or liability will reprice or mature. Management believes that its assumptions approximate actual experience and considers them reasonable, although the actual amortization and repayment of assets and liabilities may vary substantially. The Bank’s cumulative net gap position at June 30, 2010 has not changed significantly since March 31, 2010. See Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Asset/Liability Management” in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2010.

REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program
In October 2008, the Secretary of the United States Department of the Treasury invoked the systemic risk exception of the FDIC Improvement Act of 1991 and the FDIC announced the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (the “TLGP”). The TLGP provides a guarantee, through the earlier of maturity or June 30, 2012, of certain senior unsecured debt issued by participating Eligible Entities (including the Corporation) between October 14, 2008 and June 30, 2009. The maximum amount of FDIC-guaranteed debt a participating Eligible Entity (including the Corporation) may have outstanding is 125% of the entity’s senior unsecured debt that was outstanding as of September 30, 2008 that was scheduled to mature on or before June 30, 2009. The ability of Eligible Entities (including the Corporation) to issue guaranteed debt under the TLGP is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation had no senior unsecured debt outstanding under the TLGP. The Corporation and the Bank signed a master agreement with the FDIC on December 5, 2008 for issuance of bonds under the program. The Corporation does not have any unsecured debt, thus must file for an exemption to be able to issue bonds under this program. The Bank is eligible to issue up to $88 million as of June 30, 2010. As of June 30, 2010 the Bank had $60.0 million of bonds issued.
Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008
On October 3, 2008, President Bush signed into law the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”), giving the United States Department of the Treasury (UST) authority to take certain actions to restore liquidity and stability to the U.S. banking markets. Based upon its authority in the EESA, a number of programs to implement EESA have been announced. Those programs include the following:
• | | Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”). Pursuant to this program, UST, on behalf of the US government, purchased preferred stock, along with warrants to purchase common stock, from certain financial institutions, including bank holding companies, savings and loan holding companies and banks or savings associations not controlled by a holding company. The investment has a dividend rate of 5% per year, until the fifth anniversary of Treasury’s investment and a dividend of 9% thereafter. During the time UST holds securities issued pursuant to this program, participating financial institutions will be required to comply with certain provisions regarding executive compensation and corporate governance. Participation in CPP also imposes certain restrictions upon an institution’s dividends to common shareholders and stock repurchase activities. We elected to participate in the CPP and received $110 million pursuant to the program. |
|
• | | Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”). TLGP includes both (i) a debt guarantee component, whereby the FDIC will guarantee until June 30, 2012, the senior unsecured debt issued by eligible financial institutions between October 14, 2008 and June 30, 2009; and (ii) an account transaction guarantee component, whereby the FDIC will insure 100% of non-interest bearing deposit transaction accounts held at eligible financial institutions, such as payment processing accounts, payroll accounts and working capital accounts through December 31, 2009. The deadline for opting out of TLGP was December 5, 2008. We elected not to opt out of TLGP. |
|
• | | Temporary increase in deposit insurance coverage. Pursuant to the EESA, the FDIC temporarily raised the basic limit on federal deposit insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor. The EESA provides that the basic deposit insurance limit will return to $100,000 after December 31, 2013. |
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
On February 17, 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”) was signed into law. Included among the many provisions in ARRA are restrictions affecting financial institutions who are participants in CPP. ARRA provides that during the period in which any obligation under CPP remains outstanding (other than obligations relating to outstanding warrants), CPP recipients are subject to appropriate standards for executive compensation and corporate governance which were set forth in an interim final rule regarding standards for Compensation and Corporate Governance, issued by UST and effective on June 15, 2009 (the “Interim Final Rule”).
53
Among the executive compensation and corporate governance provisions included in ARRA and the Interim Final Rule are the following:
• an incentive compensation “clawback” provision to cover “senior executive officers” (defined in this instance and below to mean the “named executive officers” for whom compensation disclosure is provided in the company’s proxy statement) and the next 20 most highly compensated employees;
• a prohibition on certain golden parachute payments to cover any payment related to a departure for any reason (with limited exceptions) made to any senior executive officer (as defined above) and the next five most highly compensated employees;
• a limitation on incentive compensation paid or accrued to the five most highly compensated employees of the financial institution, subject to limited exceptions for pre-existing arrangements set forth in written employment contracts executed on or prior to February 11, 2009, and certain awards of restricted stock which may not exceed 1/3 of annual compensation, are subject to a two year holding period and cannot be transferred until Treasury’s preferred stock is redeemed in full;
• a requirement that the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer provide in annual securities filings, a written certification of compliance with the executive compensation and corporate governance provisions of the Interim Final Rule;
• an obligation for the compensation committee of the board of directors to evaluate with the company’s chief risk officer certain compensation plans to ensure that such plans do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risks or the manipulation of reported earnings;
• a requirement that companies adopt a company-wide policy regarding excessive or luxury expenditures; and
• a requirement that companies permit a separate, non-binding shareholder vote to approve the compensation of executives.
ARRA also empowers UST with the authority to review bonus, retention, and other compensation paid to senior executive officers that have received CPP assistance to determine if the compensation was inconsistent with the purposes of ARRA or CPP, or otherwise contrary to the public interest and, if so, seek to negotiate reimbursements. The provision of ARRA will apply to the Company until it has redeemed the securities sold to UST under the CPP.
In addition, companies who have issued preferred stock to UST under CPP are now permitted to redeem such investments at any time, subject to consultation with banking regulators. Upon such redemption, the warrants may be immediately liquidated by UST.
Dodd-Frank Act
On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which significantly changes the regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act includes provisions affecting large and small financial institutions alike, including several provisions that will profoundly affect how community banks, thrifts, and smaller bank and thrift holding companies, such as the Corporation, will be regulated in the future. Among other things, these provisions abolish the Office of Thrift Supervision and transfer its functions to the other federal banking agencies, relax rules regarding interstate branching, allow financial institutions to pay interest on business checking accounts, change the scope of federal deposit insurance coverage, and impose new capital requirements on bank and thrift holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act also establishes the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection as an independent entity within the Federal Reserve, which will be given the authority to promulgate consumer protection regulations applicable to all entities offering consumer financial services or products, including banks. Additionally, the Dodd-Frank Act includes a series of provisions covering mortgage loan origination standards affecting, among other things, originator compensation, minimum repayment standards, and pre-payments. The Dodd-Frank Act contains numerous other provisions affecting financial institutions of all types, many of which may have an impact on the
54
operating environment of the Corporation in substantial and unpredictable ways. Consequently, the Dodd-Frank Act is likely to affect our cost of doing business, it may limit or expand our permissible activities, and it may affect the competitive balance within our industry and market areas. The nature and extent of future legislative and regulatory changes affecting financial institutions, including as a result of the Dodd-Frank Act, is very unpredictable at this time. The Corporation’s management is actively reviewing the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, many of which are phased-in over the next several months and years, and assessing its probable impact on the business, financial condition, and results of operations of the Corporation. However, the ultimate effect of the Dodd-Frank Act on the financial services industry in general, and the Corporation in particular, is uncertain at this time.
OTS Order to Cease and Desist
On June 26, 2009, the Corporation and the Bank each consented to the issuance of an Order to Cease and Desist (the “Corporation Order” and the “Bank Order,” respectively, and together, the “Orders”) by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”).
The Corporation Order requires that the Corporation notify, and in certain cases receive the permission of, the OTS prior to: (i) declaring, making or paying any dividends or other capital distributions on its capital stock, including the repurchase or redemption of its capital stock; (ii) incurring, issuing, renewing or rolling over any debt, increasing any current lines of credit or guaranteeing the debt of any entity; (iii) making certain changes to its directors or senior executive officers; (iv) entering into, renewing, extending or revising any contractual arrangement related to compensation or benefits with any of its directors or senior executive officers; and (v) making any golden parachute payments or prohibited indemnification payments. The Corporation’s board was also required to develop and submit to the OTS a three-year cash flow plan by July 31, 2009, which must be reviewed at least quarterly by the Corporation’s management and board for material deviations between the cash flow plan’s projections and actual results (the “Variance Analysis Report”). Lastly, within thirty days following the end of each quarter, the Corporation is required to provide the OTS its Variance Analysis Report for that quarter. The Corporation has complied with each of these requirements as of June 30, 2010.
The Bank Order requires that the Bank notify, or in certain cases receive the permission of, the OTS prior to (i) increasing its total assets in any quarter in excess of an amount equal to net interest credited on deposit liabilities during the quarter; (ii) accepting, rolling over or renewing any brokered deposits; (iii) making certain changes to its directors or senior executive officers; (iv) entering into, renewing, extending or revising any contractual arrangement related to compensation or benefits with any of its directors or senior executive officers; (v) making any golden parachute or prohibited indemnification payments; (vi) paying dividends or making other capital distributions on its capital stock; (vii) entering into certain transactions with affiliates; and (viii) entering into third-party contracts outside the normal course of business.
The Orders also required that the Bank meet and maintain both a core capital ratio equal to or greater than 8 percent and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 12 percent. The Bank must also submit, and has submitted, to the OTS, within prescribed time periods, a written capital contingency plan, a problem asset plan, a revised business plan, and an implementation plan resulting from a review of commercial lending practices. The Orders also required the Bank to review its current liquidity management policy and the adequacy of its allowance for loan and lease losses.
At September 30, 2009, December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, the Bank had a core capital ratio of 4.12%, 4.12%, 3.73% and 4.08%, respectively, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 7.36%, 7.59%, 7.32% and 7.63%, respectively, each below the required capital ratios set forth above. All customer deposits remain fully insured to the highest limits set by the FDIC.
The description of each of the Orders and the corresponding Stipulation and Consent to Issuance of Order to Cease and Desist were previously filed attached as Exhibits to the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act,” and Section 27A of the Securities Act. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” and similar words or phrases. Accordingly, these statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of several factors more fully described under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report as well as in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. Factors that could affect actual results include but are not limited to; (i) general economic or industry conditions could be less favorable than expected, resulting in a deterioration in credit quality, a change in the allowance for loan and lease losses or a reduced demand for credit or fee-based products and services; (ii) soundness of other financial institutions with which the Company and the Bank engage in transactions; (iii)competitive pressures could intensify and affect our profitability, including as a result of continued industry consolidation, the increased availability of financial services from non-banks, technological developments or bank regulatory reform; (iv) changes in technology; (v) deterioration in commercial real estate, land and construction loan portfolios resulting in increased loan losses; (vi) uncertainties regarding our ability to continue as a going concern; (vii) our ability to address our own liquidity problems; (viii) demand for financial services, loss of customer confidence, and customer deposit account withdrawals; (ix) our ability to pay dividends; (x) changes in the quality or composition of the Bank’s loan and investment portfolios and allowances for loan loss; (xi)unprecedented volatility in the market and fluctuations in the value of our common stock; (xii) dilution of existing shareholders as a result of possible future transaction; (xiii) uncertainties about the Company and the Bank’s Cease and Desist Orders with OTS; (xiv) uncertainties about our ability to raise sufficient new capital in a timely manner in order to increase the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios; (xv) changes in the conditions of the securities markets, which could adversely affect, among other things, the value or credit quality of our assets, the availability and terms of funding necessary to meet our liquidity needs and our ability to originate loans; (xvi) increases in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums due to market developments and regulatory changes; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; (xvii) uncertainties regarding our investment in the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago; (xviii) delisting of the Company’s common stock from Nasdaq; (xix) significant unforeseen legal expenses; (xx) uncertainties about market interest rates; (xxi) security breaches of our information systems; (xxii) acts or threats of terrorism and actions taken by the United States or other governments as a result of such acts or threats, severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war; (xxiii) environmental liability for properties to which we take title; (xxiv) expiration of Amendment No. 6 to our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement on May 31, 2011; (xxv) uncertainties about our ability to obtain regulatory approval and finalize transactions to sell several branch locations; (xxvi) uncertainties relating to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act or 2008, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the implementation by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and federal banking regulators of a number of programs to address capital and liquidity issues in the banking system and additional programs that will apply to us in the future, all of which may have significant effects on us and the financial services industry; (xxvii) changes in the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program; (xxviii) changes in the extensive laws, regulations and policies governing financial holding companies and their subsidiaries; (xxix) monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Department of the Treasury; (xxx) implications of the Dodd-Frank Act; and (xxxi) challenges relating to recruiting and retaining key employees.
In addition, to the extent that we engage in acquisition transactions, such transactions may result in large one-time charges to income, may not produce revenue enhancements or cost savings at levels or within time frames originally anticipated and may result in unforeseen integration difficulties. These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results, and there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from expectations, and, therefore, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this report. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no
56
obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
The Corporation does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

Item 3 | | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
| | |
| | The Corporation’s market rate risk has not materially changed from March 31, 2010. See Item 7A in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2010. See also “Asset/Liability Management” in Part I, Item 2 of this report. |
| | |
|
Item 4 | | Controls and Procedures. |
| | |
| | Internal Control over Financial Reporting |
| | |
| | In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, the Corporation identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) related to the following: |
| | |
| | The Corporation’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Corporation did not maintain effective entity level controls to ensure that the financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by the time the our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 was issued. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. |
| | |
| | Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting |
| | |
| | There has been no change in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting ((as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Corporation’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting. |
57
