Loan Portfolio. Our loan portfolio is comprised of commercial, construction, real estate-commercial mortgage, real estate-residential mortgage, and installment loans to individuals. Lending decisions are based upon an evaluation of the repaying capacity, financial strength, and credit history of the borrower, the quality and value of the collateral securing each loan, and the financial strength of guarantors. With few exceptions, personal guarantees are required on loans. Our loan portfolio decreased $174.8 million or 7% to $2.3 billion as of June 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009. Commercial loans decreased 8% to $330.7 million at June 30, 2010 compared with $361.3 million at December 31, 2009. Real estate commercial mortgages decreased 4% to $709.4 million at June 30, 2010 compared to $740.6 million at December 31, 2009. Real estate residential mortgages decreased $1.5 million to $523.4 million at June 30, 2010 as compared with $524.9 million at December 31, 2009. Installment loans to individuals decreased 17% to $35.7 million at June 30, 2010 compared with $42.9 million at December 31, 2009. Construction loans also decreased 14% to $653.2 million at June 30, 2010 as compared with $757.7 million at December 31, 2009, thus lowering the concentration of construction loans to 29% of the total loan portfolio at June 30, 2010 compared with 31% at December 31, 2009.

The allowance for loan losses was $173.2 million or 7.69% of outstanding loans as of June 30, 2010 compared with $132.7 million or 5.47% of outstanding loans as of December 31, 2009. We increased the allowance for loan losses $40.5 million (net of charge-offs and recoveries) during the first six months of 2010. Pooled loan allocations increased to $52.1 million at June 30, 2010 from $34.1 million at December 31, 2009. Allowance coverage for the non-impaired portfolio is determined using a methodology that incorporates historical loss rates and risk ratings by loan category. Loss rates are based on a three-year weighted average with recent period loss rates weighted more heavily. We then apply an adjustment factor to each loss rate based on assessments of loss trends, collateral values, and economic and business influences impacting expected losses. During the quarter, the weighted historical loss rates for most loan categories increased due to recent charge-off activity. Qualitative adjustment factors for most loan categories decreased due to analyses of nonaccrual loan trends and other factors and reflect managements view that charge-offs used to calculate pooled reserves better reflect expected loss experience. In addition, based on third party review, management believes the quality of its risk rating system has improved and requires less qualitative adjustment. The effect of these changes was an increase in the loss factors for most loan types and an increase in pooled loan allocations. Specific loan allocations increased $24.2 million to $115.7 million at June 30, 2010 from $91.5 million at December 31, 2009. Specific loan allocations increased due to a decrease in collateral values of certain collateral dependent loans and due to the estimated losses of new impaired loans. Unallocated allowances decreased $1.8 million. The following table provides a breakdown of the allowance for loan losses and other related information (in thousands) at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Changes in the deposit categories include an increase of $420 thousand or 0.17% in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, a decrease of $45.6 million or 5% in interest-bearing demand deposits, and a decrease of $7.0 million or 8% in savings accounts from December 31, 2009 to June 30, 2010. Interest-bearing demand deposits included $18.2 million brokered money market funds at June 30, 2010, which was $29.4 million lower than the balance of brokered money market funds outstanding at December 31, 2009. Therefore, core bank interest-bearing demand deposits increased by $16.2 million over the last six months. Of this increase $17.1 million was related to a decrease in our NOW accounts; this was offset by a $19.1 million increase in MMDA accounts. Total time deposits under $100 thousand decreased $120.8 million from $889.8 million at December 31, 2009 to $769.0 million at June 30, 2010. Brokered CDs represented $205.8 million, which was a decrease of $133.0 million over the $338.8 million of brokered CDs outstanding at December 31, 2009. Therefore, core bank CDs increased $12.2 million over the last six months. Time deposits over $100 thousand increased $226.4 million from $356.8 million at December 31, 2009 to $583.2 million at June 30, 2010. Going forward, management intends to focus on core deposit growth as our primary source of funding.

Overview. Our net loss available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $54.0 million as compared with net loss available to common shareholders of $46.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. During the first six months of 2010, we incurred a net loss available to common shareholders of $94.6 million, compared to the net loss available to common shareholders of $41.8 million for the first six months of 2009. The loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was driven by provision for loan losses expense of $100.3 million necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level necessary to cover expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Diluted loss per common share was $2.44 and $4.27 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, an increased loss of $0.31 and $2.35 over the diluted loss per common share of $2.13 and $1.92 for the three and six months, respectively, ended June 30, 2009.

Our interest-earning assets consist of loans, investment securities, overnight funds sold and due from FRB, and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Interest income on loans, including fees, decreased $8.0 million and $13.5 million to $28.2 million and $60.4 million for the three and six months, respectively, ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same time periods during 2009. This decrease was a result of a decrease in average loan balances and an increase in nonaccrual loans. Interest income on investment securities increased $144 thousand and $81

Our interest-bearing liabilities consist of deposit accounts and borrowings. Interest expense on deposits increased $1.1 million and $914 thousand to $10.2 million and $20.3 million for the three and six months, respectively, ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same time periods during 2009. This increase resulted from a $299.5 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits, offset by a 17 basis point decrease in the average interest rate on deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. This decrease in our average deposit rates resulted in large part from declining rates on certificates of deposits and savings deposits. A reduction of our average rate on time deposits to 1.93% for the first half of 2010 from 2.49% for the first half of 2009 contributed significantly toward the decrease in overall deposit rates. Interest expense on borrowings, which consisted of FHLB borrowings, other borrowings, and overnight funds purchased decreased $621 thousand and $1.7 million for the three and six months, respectively, ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same time periods during 2009. The $200.7 million decrease in the six month average borrowings netted against a 57 basis point increase in the average interest rate on borrowings produced this result.
