This compares with 78 basis points or $6.9 million at December 31, 2009.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, non-interest income was $7.3 million, in line with the $7.5 million for the same period last year. During the first quarter of 2010, fees for wealth management services were $3.8 million, loan servicing and late fees were $381 thousand and the net gain on the sale of investments was $1.5 million. The net gain on sale of residential mortgage loans of $525 thousand and other operating income of $529 thousand during the first quarter of 2010 declined from $1.9 million and $878 thousand, respectively, in the first quarter of 2009.

Wealth Management assets under management, administration, supervision and brokerage as of March 31, 2010 were $3.1 billion, up $239 million or 8.3% higher than the $2.9 billion at December 31, 2009 and up $1.1 billion or 58.8% from March 31, 2009. Success in the Wealth Management area is primarily attributable to improvements in the financial markets and the success of BMT Asset Management.

Non-interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $11.9 million, an increase of $437 thousand or 3.8% over the $11.5 million in the same period last year. The increase is mainly due to increases in due diligence and merger related expenses and professional fees associated with the First Keystone Transaction as well as a $152 thousand loss on the sale of OREO during the first quarter of 2010.

The tax equivalent net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of $11.3 million was $1.6 million or 16.2% higher than the tax equivalent net interest income for the same period in 2009 of $9.7 million. This increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in interest expense of $1.9 million or 40.5% from $4.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 to $2.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, average investment portfolio growth of $92.1 million or 84.9% from $108.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 to $200.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and a reduction in average wholesale deposits of $47.8 million or 36.0% from $132.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 to $85.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Average interest bearing liabilities decreased $932 thousand or 0.1% to $877.9 million during the first quarter of 2010 compared to $878.8 million during first quarter of 2009. The rate on interest bearing liabilities decreased from 2.15% in the first quarter 2009 to 1.28% in the first quarter of 2010, largely due to higher rate wholesale deposits maturing, the increase in lower rate money market and savings accounts and prudent management of deposit pricing. Average total wholesale funding, which is defined as wholesale deposits (wholesale time deposits and other wholesale deposits) and borrowed funds (FHLB-P advances, Federal Reserve Bank borrowings and Federal Funds overnight borrowings), decreased $58.0 million or 20.2% to $229.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009.
