The decrease resulted from the Company recognizing an other-than-temporary impairment charge to non-interest income on CMO’s totaling $1.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2009. In addition, during the current quarter, the Company recognized $159,000 in losses related to the sale of foreclosed real estate. This was partially offset by an increase of $148,000 in other miscellaneous income, the majority of which was the reimbursement of legal fees previously charged to expense.

The increase includes a special assessment by the FDIC of $284,000. Compensation and benefits expenses increased $279,000 due to increased staffing, annual merit raises, and higher fringe benefit costs. Professional services increased by $65,000 due to legal fees associated with SEC and U.S. Treasury Department filings related to the EESA capital program.
