Short-term investment grade commercial paper purchases, included in investment securities purchases, totaled $85.1 million; and maturities of short-term commercial paper totaled $90.9 million.

Funds provided by financing activities totaled $19.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. The primary sources included a $47.1 million increase in FRB short-term borrowings which was partially offset by a $15.1 million decrease in other short-term borrowings, a $5.5 million decrease in FHLB long-term advances, a $3.6 million decrease in deposits, $2.4 million in treasury stock purchases and $1.0 million in cash dividends paid on the Companys common stock. The increase in FRB short-term borrowings reflects lower short-term rates available through the FRB compared to other short-term funding sources. The $3.6 million decrease in total deposits consisted of a $5.4 million decrease in time deposits, and a $239 thousand decrease in mortgage escrow accounts, which were partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in money market deposits, a $551 thousand increase in demand deposits and a $255 thousand increase in passbook accounts. The decrease in time deposits may be attributable to customer transfers into money market accounts and to possible other financial alternatives. The increase in money market balances may be attributable to lower market yields on certificates of deposits and increased liquidity preferences by depositors in response to unsettled financial markets. The decrease in escrow accounts was due primarily to the payments of local property taxes by and for customers. Management believes that it currently is maintaining adequate liquidity and continues to match funding sources with lending and investment opportunities.
