EXPANSION AND STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS

The Company expands its market area and increases its market share through organic growth (internal growth and de novo expansion) and strategic acquisitions. Strategic acquisitions by the Company to date have included whole bank acquisitions, branch and deposit acquisitions, and purchases of existing branches from other banks. The Company generally considers acquisitions of companies in strong growth markets or with unique products or services that will benefit the entire organization. Targeted acquisitions are priced to be economically feasible with expected minimal short-term drag to achieve positive long-term benefits. These acquisitions may be paid for in the form of cash, stock, debt, or a combination thereof. The amount and type of consideration and deal charges paid could have a short-term dilutive effect on the Company’s earnings per share or book value. However, management anticipates that the cost savings and revenue enhancements in such transactions are anticipated towill provide long-term economic benefit to the Company.

The Company’s new construction expansion during the last three years consists of opening two new bank branches in Virginia:

Three James Center, Union First Market Bank branch located in the city of Richmond, Virginia (November 2011)

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2013,2016, the Company had approximately 1,0251,416 full-time equivalent employees, including executive officers, loan and other banking officers, branch personnel, and operations and other support personnel. Of this total, 175105 were mortgage segment personnel. None of the Company’s employees are represented by a union or covered under a collective bargaining agreement. The Company provides employees with a comprehensive employee benefit program which includes the following: group life, health and dental insurance, paid time off, educational opportunities, a cash incentive plan, a stock purchase plan, stock incentive plans, deferred compensation plans for officers and key employees, an ESOP, and a 401(k) plan with employer match.

COMPETITION

The financial services industry remains highly competitive and is constantly evolving. The Company experiences strong competition in all aspects of its business. In its market areas, the Company competes with large national and regional financial institutions, credit unions, other independent community banks, as well as consumer finance companies, mortgage companies, loan production offices, mutual funds, and life insurance companies. Competition for deposits and loans is affected by various factors including interest rates offered, the number and location of branches and types of products offered, and the reputation of the institution. Credit unions increasingly have been allowed to expand their membership definitions, and because they enjoy a favorable tax status, they have been able to offer more attractive loan and deposit pricing. The Company’s non-bank affiliates also operate in highly competitive environments. The Company believes its community bank framework and philosophy provide a competitive advantage, particularly with regard to larger national and regional institutions, allowing the Company to compete effectively. The Company’s community bank segment generally has strong market shares within the markets it serves. The Company’s deposit market share in Virginia was 1.96%3.2% of total bank deposits as of June 30, 2013.

ECONOMY

The economyeconomies in the Company’s footprint showed some signs of improvement during 2013, though growth remains sluggishmarket areas are widely diverse and unemployment continues to be elevated by historical standards. Interest rates steepened somewhat,include local and federal government, military, agriculture, and manufacturing. The Company believes Virginia has weathered the recent economic challenges better than most other states over the last several years but continue to beis still faced with a protracted low relative to historical rates. Housing starts and sales improved in 2013; however, higher long term interest rates may suppress continued progress in the housing market. The continued weakness in employment, continued low rates,rate environment and the burden of regulatory requirements enacted in response to the most recent financial crisis madecrisis. Virginia’s year-over-year employment growth finished 2016 slightly below the national rate after exceeding the nation for a challenging 2013 formost of 2016. Based on the Companymost recent reported rate from the Virginia Employment Commission, the state’s unemployment rate is 4.1% as of December 2016 compared to 4.2% at year-end 2015, and for community bankscontinues to be below the national rate of 4.7% at year-end 2016. Virginia's annualized residential home sales closed in general.the preceding twelve months rose 6.6% from 2015. The effects of federal sequestrationCompany’s management continues to consider future economic events and spending cutstheir impact on Virginia’s economy remain uncertain and could have significant consequences, as approximately 30% of Virginia’s economy is tied to the federal government and the state is the leader in Department of Defense contracts. Despite this uncertainty, Virginia toppedForbes’ 2013 list of the Best States for Business. In response to the continued slow economic recovery during 2013, the Company’s management focused significantperformance while focusing attention on managing nonperforming assets, and controlling costs, whileand working with borrowers to mitigate and protect against risk of loss.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The Company and its bank subsidiariesthe Bank are extensively and increasingly regulated under both federal and state laws. The following description briefly addresses certain historic and current provisions of federal and state laws and certain regulations, proposed regulations, and the potential impacts on the Company and the Subsidiary Banks.Bank. To the extent statutory or regulatory provisions or proposals are described in this report, the description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular statutory or regulatory provisions or proposals.

Regulatory Reform – The Dodd-Frank Act

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Act. The Dodd-Frank Act significantly restructured the financial regulatory regime in the United States and has a broad impact on the financial services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act provides for new and stronger capital standards that, among other things, eliminate the treatment of trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital. Existing trust preferred securities are grandfathered for banking entities with less than $15 billion of assets, such as the Company. The Dodd-Frank Act also permanently raises deposit insurance levels to $250,000. Pursuant to modifications under the Dodd-Frank Act, deposit insurance assessments are now calculated based on an insured depository institution’s assets rather than its insured deposits and the minimum reserve ratio of the Deposit Insurance Fund of the FDIC was raised to 1.35%. The Dodd-Frank Act also established the CFPB as an independent bureau of the Board of Governors of the FRB. The CFPB has the exclusive authority to prescribe rules governing the provision of consumer financial products and services, which in the case of the Subsidiary Banks will be enforced by the Federal Reserve.

Although a significant number of the rules and regulations mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act have been finalized, certain of the act’s requirements have yet to be implemented. Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented by the federal bank regulatory agencies in the future, the full extent of the impact such requirements will have on the operations of the Company and the Subsidiary Banks is unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may affect the profitability of business activities, require changes to certain business practices, impose more stringent regulatory requirements or otherwise adversely affect the business and financial condition of the Company and the Subsidiary Banks. These changes may also require the Company to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and make necessary changes to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements.

The Company

General. As a financial holding company and a bank holding company registered under the BHCA, the Company is subject to supervision, regulation, and examination by the Federal Reserve. The Company elected to be treated as financial holding

company by the Federal Reserve in September 2013. The Company is also registered under the bank holding company laws of Virginia and is subject to supervision, regulation, and examination by the SCC.

Permitted Activities. AThe permitted activities of a bank holding company isare limited to managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries, and engaging in other activities that the Federal Reserve determines by regulation or order to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In addition, bank holding companies that qualify and elect to be financial holding companies, such as the Company, may engage in any activity, or acquire and retain the shares of a company engaged in any activity, that is either (i) financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity (as determined by the Federal Reserve in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury) or (ii) complementary to a financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally (as solely determined by the Federal Reserve), without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. Activities that are financial in nature include but are not limited to securities underwriting and dealing, insurance underwriting, and making merchant banking investments.

To maintain financial holding company status, a financial holding company and all of its depository institution subsidiaries must be “well capitalized” and “well managed.” A depository institution subsidiary is considered to be “well capitalized” if it satisfies the requirements for this status under applicable Federal Reserve capital requirements. A depository institution subsidiary is considered “well managed” if it received a composite rating and management rating of at least “satisfactory” in its most recent examination. A financial holding company’s status will also depend upon it maintaining its status as “well capitalized” and “well managed” under applicable Federal Reserve regulations. If a financial holding company ceases to meet these capital and management requirements, the Federal Reserve’s regulations provide that the financial holding company must enter into an agreement with the Federal Reserve to comply with all applicable capital and management requirements. Until the financial holding company returns to compliance, the Federal Reserve may impose limitations or conditions on the conduct of its activities, and the company may not commence any of the broader financial activities permissible for financial holding companies or acquire a company engaged in such financial activities without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. If the company does not return to compliance within 180 days, the Federal Reserve may require divestiture of the financial holding company’scompany to divest its depository institutions.

institution subsidiaries or to cease engaging in any activity that is financial in nature (or incident to such financial activity) or complementary to a financial activity.

In order for a financial holding company to commence any new activity permitted by the BHCA or to acquire a company engaged in any new activity permitted by the BHCA, each insured depository institution subsidiary of the financial holding company must have received a rating of at least “satisfactory” in its most recent examination under the CRA. See below under “The Subsidiary BanksBank – Community Reinvestment Act.”

- 6 -

Despite prior approval, the Federal Reserve may order a bank holding company or its subsidiaries to terminate any activity or to terminate ownership or control of any subsidiary when the Federal Reserve has reasonable cause to believe that a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness, or stability of any bank subsidiary of that bank holding company may result from such an activity.

The BHCA requires,and related regulations require, among other things, the prior approval of the Federal Reserve in any case where a bank holding company proposes to (i) acquire direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting stock of any bank or bank holding company (unless it already owns a majority of such voting shares), (ii) acquire all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company, or (iii) merge or consolidate with any other bank holding company. In determining whether to approve a proposed bank acquisition, the Federal Reserve will consider, among other factors, the effect of the acquisition on competition, the public benefits expected to be received from the acquisition, any outstanding regulatory compliance issues of any institution that is a party to the transaction, the projected capital ratios and levels on a post-acquisition basis, the financial condition of each institution that is a party to the transaction and of the combined institution after the transaction, and the acquiring institution’s performance under the CRA and its compliance with fair housing and other consumer protection laws.

Subject to certain exceptions, the BHCA and the Change in Bank Control Act, together with the applicable regulations, require Federal Reserve approval (or, depending on the circumstances, no notice of disapproval) prior to any person or company’s acquiring “control” of a bank or bank holding company. A conclusive presumption of control exists if an individual or company acquires the power, directly or indirectly, to direct the management or policies of an insured depository institution or to vote 25% or more of any class of voting securities of any insured depository institution. A rebuttable presumption of control exists if a person or company acquires 10% or more but less than 25% of any class of voting securities of an insured depository institution and either the institution has registered its securities with the SEC under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or no other person will own a greater percentage of that class of voting securities immediately after the acquisition. The Company’s common stock is registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

In addition, Virginia law requires the prior approval of the SCC for (i) the acquisition by a Virginia bank holding company of more than 5% of the voting shares of a Virginia bank or any holding company that controls a Virginia bank holding company, or (ii) the acquisition by any other person of control of a Virginia bank holding company ofor a bank or its holding company domiciled outside Virginia.

Source of Strength. Federal Reserve policy has historically required bank holding companies to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to their subsidiary banks. The Dodd-Frank Act codified this policy as a statutory requirement. Under this requirement, the Company is expected to commit resources to support the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, including times when the Company may not be in a financial position to provide such resources. Any capital loans by a bank holding company to any of its subsidiary banks are subordinate in right of payment to depositors and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary banks. In the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to priority of payment.

Safety and Soundness. There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their subsidiary banks by law and regulatory policy that are designed to minimize potential loss to the depositors of such depository institutions and the FDIC insurance fund in the event of a depository institution insolvency, receivership, or default. For example, under the FDICIA, to avoid receivership of an insured depository institution subsidiary, a bank holding company is required to guarantee the compliance of any subsidiary bank that may become “undercapitalized” with the terms of any capital restoration plan filed by such subsidiary with its appropriate federal bank regulatory agency up to the lesser of (i) an amount equal to 5% of the institution’s total assets at the time the institution became undercapitalized, or (ii) the amount that is necessary (or would have been necessary) to bring the institution into compliance with all applicable capital standards as of the time the institution fails to comply with such capital restoration plan.

Under the FDIA, the federal bank regulatory agencies have adopted guidelines prescribing safety and soundness standards. These guidelines establish general standards relating to internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and compensation, fees, and benefits. In general, the guidelines require, among other things, appropriate systems and practices to identify and manage the risk and exposures specified in the guidelines.

Capital Requirements.The Federal Reserve imposes certain capital requirements on bank holding companies under the BHCA, including a minimum leverage ratio and a minimum ratio of “qualifying” capital to risk-weighted assets. These requirements are described below under “The Subsidiary BanksBank – Capital Requirements”. Subject to its capital requirements and certain other restrictions, the Company is able to borrow money to make a capital contribution to the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, and such loans may be repaid from dividends paid by the Subsidiary BanksBank to the Company.

Limits on Dividends and Other Payments. The Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from its subsidiaries. A significant portion of the revenues of the Company result from dividends paid to it by the Subsidiary Banks.Bank. There are various legal limitations applicable to the payment of dividends by the Subsidiary BanksBank to the Company and to the payment of dividends by the Company to its shareholders. The Subsidiary Banks areBank is subject to various statutory and regulatory restrictions on its ability to pay dividends to the Company. Under current regulations, prior approval from the Federal Reserve is required if cash dividends declared by the Bank in any given year exceed net income for that year, plus retained net profits of the two preceding years. The payment of dividends by the Subsidiary BanksBank or the Company may be limited by other factors, such as requirements to maintain capital above regulatory guidelines. Bank regulatory agencies have the authority to prohibit the Subsidiary BanksBank or the Company from engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting theirits respective business. The payment of dividends, depending on the financial condition of the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, or the Company, could be deemed to constitute such an unsafe or unsound practice.

Under the FDIA, insured depository institutions such as the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, are prohibited from making capital distributions, including the payment of dividends, if, after making such distributions, the institution would become “undercapitalized” (as such term is used in the statute). Based on the Subsidiary Banks’Bank’s current financial condition, the Company does not expect that this provision will have any impact on its ability to receive dividends from the Subsidiary Banks.Bank. The Company’s non-bank subsidiaries pay dividends to the Company periodically, on a non-regulated basis.

subject to certain statutory restrictions.

In addition to dividends it receives from the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, the Company receives management fees from its affiliated companies for expenses incurred related to external financial reporting and audit fees, investor relations expenses, boardBoard of directorsDirectors fees, and legal fees related to corporate actions. These fees are charged to each subsidiary based upon various specific allocation methods measuring the estimated usage of such services by that subsidiary. The fees are eliminated from the financial statements in the consolidation process.

The Subsidiary Banks

Bank

General. The Subsidiary Banks areBank is supervised and regularly examined by the Federal Reserve and the SCC. The various laws and regulations administered by the bank regulatory agencies affect corporate practices, such as the payment of dividends, incurrence of debt, and acquisition of financial institutions and other companies; they also affect business practices, such as the payment of interest on deposits, the charging of interest on loans, types of business conducted, and location of offices. Certain of these law and regulations are referenced above under “The Company.”

Current

Capital Requirements. The Federal Reserve and the other federal banking agencies have issued risk-based and leverage capital guidelines applicable to U.S. banking organizations. In addition, thoseThose regulatory agencies may from time to time require that a banking organization maintain capital above the minimum levels because of its financial condition or actual or anticipated growth.
The Federal Reserve has adopted final rules regarding capital requirements and calculations of risk-weighted assets to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act.
Under the currentthese updated risk-based capital requirements of the Federal Reserve, the Company and the Subsidiary BanksBank are required to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital less certain specified deductions from total capital such as reciprocal holdings of depository institution capital instruments and equity investments) to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%. In determining (unchanged from the amountprior requirement), (ii) a minimum ratio of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet activities, recourse obligations, residual interests and direct credit substitutes, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor of 0% to 1,250%, assigned by theTier 1 capital regulation based on the risks believed inherent in the type of asset. At least half of the total capital is required to be “Tier 1 capital,” which(which consists principally of common and certain qualifying preferred shareholders’ equity (including grandfathered trust preferred securities), as well as retained earnings, less certain intangibles and other adjustments. The remainder (“adjustments) to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0% (increased from the prior requirement of 4.0%), and (iii) a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5% (a new requirement). These rules provide that “Tier 2 capital”) consists of cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, a limited amount of subordinated and other qualifying debt (including certain hybrid capital instruments), and a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance. The Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, and total capital to risk-weighted asset ratios of the Company were 13.05%10.97%, 9.72% and 14.17%13.56%, respectively, as of December 31, 2013,2016, thus exceeding the minimum requirements.requirements for "well capitalized" status. The Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, and total capital to risk-weighted asset ratios of the Bank were 12.43%12.58%, 12.58% and 13.56%13.11%, respectively, as of December 31, 2013,2016, also exceeding the minimum requirements.

requirements for "well capitalized" status.

Each of the federal bank regulatory agencies also has established a minimum leverage capital ratio of Tier 1 capital to average adjusted assets (“Tier 1 leverage ratio”). The guidelines provide forrequire a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3.0% for financial holding companies andadvanced approach banking organizations that have the highest supervisory rating. Allorganizations; all other banking organizations are required to maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0% unless a different minimum is specified by an appropriate regulatory authority.. In addition, for a depository institution to be considered “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,PCA, its Tier 1 leverage ratio must be at least 5.0%. The guidelines also provideBanking organizations that banking organizations experiencinghave experienced internal growth or makingmade acquisitions will beare expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on intangible assets. The Federal Reserve has not advised the Company or the Subsidiary BanksBank of any specific minimum leverage ratio applicable to either entity. As of December 31, 2013,2016, the Tier 1 leverage ratios of the Company and the Bank were 10.70%9.87% and 10.19%11.31%, respectively, well above the minimum requirements.

New Capital Requirements. On June 7, 2012, the


The Federal Reserve issuedReserve's final rules also impose a series of proposed rulescapital conservation buffer requirement that would revise and strengthen its risk-based and leverage capital requirements and its method for calculating risk-weighted assets. The rules were proposed to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve approved certain revisions to the proposals and finalized new capital requirements for banking organizations.

Effectiveis being phased in beginning January 1, 2015,2016, at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, increasing by the final rules require the Company and the Subsidiary Bankssame amount each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. The capital conservation buffer is designed to complyabsorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with the following new minimum capital ratios: (i) a newratio of common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% of risk-weighted assets; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% ofto risk-weighted assets (increased fromabove the current requirementminimum but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of 4.0%); (iii) a total capital ratio of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets (unchanged from current requirement); and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4.0% of total assets. These are the initial capital requirements, which will be phased in over a four-year period. shortfall.

When fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the rules will require the Company and the Subsidiary BanksBank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (which is added to the 4.5% common equity Tier 1 ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7.0% upon full implementation),; (ii) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 6.0% Tier 1 capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% upon full implementation),; (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 8.0% total capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5% upon full implementation),; and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets.

The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016, at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, increasing each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.

With respect to the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, the Federal Reserve’s final rules also revised the “prompt corrective action” regulations pursuant to Section 38 of the FDIA by (i) introducing a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio requirement at each level (other than critically undercapitalized), with the required ratio being 6.5% for well-capitalized status; (ii) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio requirement for each category, with the minimum ratio for well-capitalized status being 8.0% (as compared to the current prior ratio of

6.0%); and (iii) eliminating the current provision that providesprovided that a bank with a composite supervisory rating of 1 may have a 3.0% Tier 1 leverage ratio and still be well-capitalized.

These new thresholds were effective for the Bank as of January 1, 2015. The newminimum total capital requirementsto risk-weighted assets ratio (10.0%) and minimum leverage ratio (5.0%) for well-capitalized status were unchanged by the final rules.

The Federal Reserve's final rules also include changes in the risk weights of assets to better reflect credit risk and other risk exposures. These include a 150% risk weight (up from 100%) for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development, and construction loans and nonresidential mortgage loans that are 90 days past due or otherwise on nonaccrual status, a 20% (up from 0%) credit conversion factor for the unused portion of a commitment with an original maturity of one year or less that is not unconditionally cancellable, a 250% risk weight (up from 100%) for mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets that are not deducted from capital, and increased risk-weights (from 0% to up to 600%) for equity exposures.

If the new minimum capital ratios described above had been effective as of December 31, 2013, based on management’s interpretation and understanding of the new rules, the Company would have remained “well capitalized” as of such date.

Deposit Insurance. Substantially all of the The deposits of the Subsidiary BanksBank are insured up to applicable limits by the DIF of the FDIC and are subject to deposit insurance assessments to maintain the DIF. On April 1, 2011, the deposit insurance assessment base changed from total deposits tobased on average total assets minus average tangible equity pursuant to a rule issued bymaintain the FDIC asDIF.
As required by the Dodd-Frank Act.

The FDIA, as amended by the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act, and the Dodd-Frank Act, requires the FDIC tohas adopted a large-bank pricing assessment structure, set a target “designated reserve ratio” of 2 percent for the DIF and established a lower assessment rate schedule when the reserve ratio reaches 1.15 percent and, in lieu of deposit insurance reservesdividends, provides for a lower assessment rate schedule, when the reserve ratio reaches 2 percent and 2.5 percent. An institution's assessment rate is based on a statistical analysis of financial ratios that estimates the likelihood of failure over a three year period, which considers the institution’s weighted average CAMELS component rating, and is subject to estimatedfurther adjustments including related to levels of unsecured debt and brokered deposits (not applicable to banks with less than $10 billion in assets). At December 31, 2016, total base assessment rates institutions that have been insured deposits offor at least 1.35%. The FDIC utilizes a risk-based assessment system that imposes insurance premiums based upon a risk matrix that takes into account a bank’s capital level and supervisory rating. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC introduced three possible adjustmentsfive years range from 1.5 to an institution’s initial base assessment rate: (i) a decrease of up to five40 basis points, for long-term unsecured debt, including senior unsecured debt (other than debt guaranteed under the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program) and subordinated debt and, for small institutions, a portionwith rates of Tier 1 capital; (ii) an increase not1.5 to exceed 50% of an institution’s assessment rate before the increase for secured liabilities in excess of 25% of domestic deposits; and (iii) for non-Risk Category I institutions, an increase not to exceed 1030 basis points for brokered depositsapplying to banks with less than $10 billion in excess of 10% of domestic deposits.assets. In 20132016 and 2012,2015, the Company paid only the base assessment rate for “well capitalized” institutions, which totaled $2.8$4.4 million and $2.1$4.5 million, respectively, in regular deposit insurance assessments.


In addition, all FDIC insured institutions are required to pay assessments to the FDIC at an annual rate of approximately one basis point of insured deposits to fund interest payments on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation, an agency of the federal government established to recapitalize the predecessor to the Savings Association Insurance Fund. These assessments will continue until the FICO bonds mature in 2017 through 2019.


Transactions with Affiliates. Pursuant to Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation W, the authority of the Subsidiary BanksBank to engage in transactions with related parties or “affiliates”“affiliates,” or to make loans to insiders, is limited. Loan transactions with an affiliate generally must be collateralized and certain transactions between the Subsidiary BanksBank and its affiliates, including the sale of assets, the payment of money or the provision of services, must be on terms and conditions that are substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the Bank, as those prevailing for comparable nonaffiliated transactions. In addition, the Subsidiary BanksBank generally may not purchase securities issued or underwritten by affiliates.


Loans to executive officers, directors, or to any person who directly or indirectly, or acting through or in concert with one or more persons, owns, controls, or has the power to vote more than 10% of any class of voting securities of a bank (“10% Shareholders”), are subject to Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act and their corresponding regulations (Regulation O) and Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act relating to the prohibition on personal loans to executives (which exempts financial institutions in compliance with the insider lending restrictions of Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act). Among other things, these loans must be made on terms substantially the same as those prevailing on transactions made to unaffiliated individuals and certain extensions of credit to those persons must first be approved in advance by a disinterested majority of the entire boardBoard of directors.Directors. Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act prohibits loans to any of those individuals where the aggregate amount exceeds an amount equal to 15% of an institution’s unimpaired capital and surplus plus an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus in the case of loans that are fully secured by readily marketable collateral, or when the aggregate amount on all of the extensions of credit outstanding to all of these persons would exceed the Subsidiary Banks’Bank’s unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Section 22(g) of the Federal Reserve Act identifies limited circumstances in which the Subsidiary Banks areBank is permitted to extend credit to executive officers.


Prompt Corrective Action. Federal banking regulators are authorized and, under certain circumstances, required to take certain actions against banks that fail to meet their capital requirements. The federal bank regulatory agencies have additional enforcement authority with respect to undercapitalized depository institutions. “Well capitalized” institutions may generally operate without additional supervisory restriction. With respect to “adequately capitalized” institutions, such banks cannot normally pay dividends or make any capital contributions that would leave it undercapitalized, they cannot pay a management fee to a controlling person if, after paying the fee, it would be undercapitalized, and they cannot accept, renew, or roll over any brokered deposit unless the bank has applied for and been granted a waiver by the FDIC.

Immediately upon becoming “undercapitalized,” a depository institution becomes subject to the provisions of Section 38 of the FDIA, which: (i) restrict payment of capital distributions and management fees; (ii) require that the appropriate federal banking agency monitor the condition of the institution and its efforts to restore its capital; (iii) require submission of a capital restoration plan; (iv) restrict the growth of the institution’s assets; and (v) require prior approval of certain expansion proposals. The appropriate federal banking agency for an undercapitalized institution also may take any number of discretionary supervisory actions if the agency determines that any of these actions is necessary to resolve the problems of the institution at the least possible long-term cost to the DIF, subject in certain cases to specified procedures. These discretionary supervisory actions include: (i) requiring the institution to raise additional capital; (ii) restricting transactions with affiliates; (iii) requiring divestiture of the institution or the sale of the institution to a willing purchaser; and (iv) any other supervisory action that the agency deems appropriate. These and additional mandatory and permissive supervisory actions may be taken with respect to significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized institutions.

The CRA imposes on financial institutions an affirmative and ongoing obligation to meet the credit needs of the local communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. If the Subsidiary Banks receiveBank receives a rating from the Federal Reserve of less than “satisfactory” under the CRA, restrictions on operating activities would be imposed. In addition, in order for a financial holding company, like the Company, to commence any new activity permitted by the BHCA, or to acquire any company engaged in any new activity permitted by the BHCA, each insured depository institution subsidiary of the financial holding company must have received a rating of at least “satisfactory” in its most recent examination under the CRA. The Subsidiary Banks currently haveBank received a “satisfactory” CRA rating.

Each institution must conduct an internal risk assessment of its ability to protect customer information. These privacy provisionslaws and regulations generally prohibit a financial institution from providing a customer’s personal financial information to unaffiliated parties without prior notice and approval from the customer.


Required Disclosure of Customer Information. The Company and the Bank are also subject to various laws and regulations that attempt to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. The Bank Secrecy Act requires all financial institutions to, among other things, create a system of controls designed to prevent money laundering and the financing of terrorism, and imposes recordkeeping and reporting requirements. The USA Patriot Act of 2001. In October 2001, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (“Patriot Act”) was enacted in responseadded additional regulations to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania,facilitate information sharing among governmental entities and Northern Virginia.

Volcker Rule.The Dodd-Frank Act prohibits insured depository institutions and their holding companies from engaging in proprietary trading except in limited circumstances and prohibits them from owning equity interests in excess of 3% of Tier 1 capital in private equity and hedge funds (known as the “Volcker Rule”). On December 10, 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted final rules implementing the Volcker Rule. These final rules prohibit banking entities from (i) engaging in short-term proprietary trading for their own accounts, and (ii) having certain ownership interests in and relationships with hedge funds or private equity funds. The final rules are intended to provide greater clarity with respect to both the extent of those primary prohibitions and of the related exemptions and exclusions. The final rules also require each regulated entity to establish an internal compliance program that is consistent with the extent to which it engages in activities covered by the Volcker Rule, which must include (for the largest entities) making regular reports about those activities to regulators. Although the final rules provide some tiering of compliance and reporting obligations based on size, the fundamental prohibitions of the Volcker Rule apply to banking entities of any size, including the Company and the Subsidiary Banks.Bank. The final rules arewere effective April 1, 2014, but the conformancewith full compliance being phased in over a period has been extended from its statutory end date ofthat ended on July 21, 2014 until July 21, 2015.2016.

Consumer Financial Protection. The Bank is subject to hold any such investments to maturity. However, on January 14, 2014,a number of federal and state consumer protection laws that extensively govern its relationship with its customers. These laws include the federal bank regulatory agencies issued an interim rule, effective April 1, 2014, exempting TruPS CDOs from the Volcker Rule if (i) the CDO was established prior to May 19, 2010, (ii) the banking entity reasonably believes that the offering proceeds of the CDO were used to invest primarily in TruPS issued by banks with less than $15 billion in assets, and (iii) the banking entity acquired the CDO on or before December 10, 2013. However, regulators are soliciting comments to the Interim Rule, and this exemption could change prior to its effective date. The Company currently does not have any impermissible holdings of TruPS CDOs under the interim rule, and therefore, will not be required to divest of any such investments or change the accounting treatment.

Ability-to-Repay and Qualified Mortgage Rule.Pursuant to the Dodd-FrankEqual Credit Opportunity Act, the CFPB issued a final rule on January 10, 2013 (effective on January 10, 2014), amending Regulation Z as implemented byFair Credit Reporting Act, the Truth in Lending Act, requiringthe Truth in Savings Act, the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Fair Housing Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Service Members Civil Relief Act, laws governing flood insurance, federal and state laws prohibiting unfair and deceptive business practices, foreclosure laws, and various regulations that implement some or all of the foregoing. These laws and regulations mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which financial institutions must deal with customers when taking deposits, making loans, collecting loans, and providing other services. If the Bank fails to comply with these laws and regulations, it may be subject to various penalties. Failure to comply with consumer protection requirements may also result in failure to obtain any required bank regulatory approval for merger or acquisition transactions the Bank may wish to pursue or being prohibited from engaging in such transactions even if approval is not required.

The Dodd-Frank Act centralized responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the CFPB, and giving it responsibility for implementing, examining, and enforcing compliance with federal consumer protection laws. The CFPB focuses on (i) risks to consumers and compliance with the federal consumer financial laws, (ii) the markets in which firms operate and risks to consumers posed by activities in those markets., (iii) depository institutions that offer a wide variety of consumer financial products and services, and (iv) non-depository companies that offer one or more consumer financial products or services. The CFPB is responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws for institutions with more than $10 billion of assets. While the Bank, like all banks, is subject to federal consumer protection rules enacted by the CFPB, because the Company and the Bank have total consolidated assets of $10 billion or less, the Federal Reserve oversees the application to the Bank of most consumer protection aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act and other laws and regulations.
The CFPB has broad rulemaking authority for a wide range of consumer financial laws that apply to all banks, including, among other things, the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive, or abusive” acts and practices. Abusive acts or practices are defined as those that materially interfere with a consumer’s ability to understand a term or condition of a consumer financial product or service or take unreasonable advantage of a consumer’s (i) lack of financial savvy, (ii) inability to protect himself in the selection or use of consumer financial products or services, or (iii) reasonable reliance on a covered entity to act in the consumer’s interests. The CFPB can issue cease-and-desist orders against banks and other entities that violate consumer financial laws. The CFPB may also institute a civil action against an entity in violation of federal consumer financial law in order to impose a civil penalty or injunction. Further, regulatory positions taken by the CFPB with respect to financial institutions with more than $10 billion in assets may influence how other regulatory agencies apply the subject consumer financial protection laws and regulations.
Mortgage Banking Regulation. In connection with making mortgage loans, the Company and the Bank are subject to rules and regulations that, among other things, establish standards for loan origination, prohibit discrimination, provide for inspections and appraisals of property, require credit reports on prospective borrowers, in some cases restrict certain loan features and fix maximum interest rates and fees, require the disclosure of certain basic information to mortgagors concerning credit and settlement costs, limit payment for settlement services to the reasonable value of the services rendered and require the maintenance and disclosure of information regarding the disposition of mortgage applications based on race, gender, geographical distribution and income level.

The Company’s and the Bank’s mortgage origination activities are subject to Regulation Z, which implements the Truth in Lending Act. Certain provisions of Regulation Z require creditors to make a reasonable and good faith determination based on verified and documented information that a consumer applying for a mortgage loan has a reasonable ability to repay the loan according to its terms. Creditors are required to determine consumers’ ability to repay in one of two ways. The first alternative requires the creditor to consider the following eight underwriting factors when making the credit decision: (i) current or reasonably expected income or assets; (ii) current employment status; (iii) the monthly payment on the covered transaction; (iv) the monthly payment on any simultaneous loan; (v) the monthly payment for mortgage-related obligations; (vi) current debt obligations, alimony, and child support; (vii) the monthly debt-to-income ratio or residual income; and (viii) credit history. Alternatively, the creditor can originate “qualified mortgages,” which are entitled to a presumption that the creditor making the loan satisfied the ability-to-repay requirements. In general, a “qualified mortgage” is a mortgage loan without negative amortization, interest-only payments, balloon payments, or terms exceeding 30 years. In addition, to be a qualified mortgage the points and fees paid by a consumer cannot exceed 3% of the total loan amount. Qualified mortgages that are “higher-priced” (e.g. subprime loans) garner a rebuttable presumption of compliance with the ability-to-repay rules, while qualified mortgages that are not “higher-priced” (e.g. prime loans) are given a safe harbor of compliance. To meet the mortgage credit needs of a broader customer base, the Company is predominantly an originator of mortgages that are intended to be in compliance with the Ability-to-Pay rules.

Consumer Laws and Regulations. The Subsidiary Banks are also subject to certain consumer laws and regulations issued thereunder that are designed to protect consumers in transactions with banks. These laws include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Fair Housing Act and the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, among others. The laws and related regulations mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which financial institutions transact business with customers. The Subsidiary Banks must comply with the applicable provisions of these consumer protection laws and regulations as part of their ongoing customer relations.

Incentive Compensation. In June 2010, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued comprehensive final guidance on incentive compensation policies intended to ensure that the incentive compensation policies of financial institutions do not undermine the safety and soundness of such institutions by encouraging excessive risk-taking. TheInteragency Guidance on Sound Incentive Compensation Policies, which covers all employees that have the ability to materially affect the risk profile of financial institutions, either individually or as part of a group, is based upon the key principles that a financial institution’s incentive compensation arrangements should (i) provide incentives that do not encourage risk-taking beyond the institution’s ability to effectively identify and manage risks,risks; (ii) be compatible with effective internal controls and risk management,management; and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the financial institution’s boardBoard of directors.

Directors.

The Federal Reserve will review, as part of the regular, risk-focused examination process, the incentive compensation arrangements of financial institutions, such as the Company and the Subsidiary Banks,Bank, that are not “large, complex banking organizations.” These reviews will be tailored to each financial institution based on the scope and complexity of the institution’s activities and the prevalence of incentive compensation arrangements. The findings of the supervisory initiatives will be included in reports of examination. Deficiencies will be incorporated into the institution’s supervisory ratings, which can affect the institution’s ability to make acquisitions and take other actions. Enforcement actions may be taken against a financial institution if its incentive compensation arrangements, or related risk-management control or governance processes, pose a risk to the institution’s safety and soundness and the financial institution is not taking prompt and effective measures to correct the deficiencies. At December 31, 2013,

In 2016, the SEC and the federal banking agencies proposed rules that prohibit covered financial institutions (including bank holding companies and banks) from establishing or maintaining incentive-based compensation arrangements that encourage inappropriate risk taking by providing covered persons (consisting of senior executive officers and significant risk takers, as defined in the rules) with excessive compensation, fees, or benefits that could lead to material financial loss to the financial institution. The proposed rules outline factors to be considered when analyzing whether compensation is excessive and whether an incentive-based compensation arrangement encourages inappropriate risks that could lead to material loss to the covered financial institution, and establishes minimum requirements that incentive-based compensation arrangements must meet to be considered to not encourage inappropriate risks and to appropriately balance risk and reward. The proposed rules also impose additional corporate governance requirements on the boards of directors of covered financial institutions and impose additional record-keeping requirements. The comment period for these proposed rules has closed and a final rule has not yet been published.

Heightened Requirements for Bank Holding Companies with $10 Billion or More in Assets
Various federal banking laws and regulations, including rules adopted by the Federal Reserve pursuant to the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, impose heightened requirements on certain large banks and bank holding companies. Most of these rules apply primarily to bank holding companies with at least $50 billion in total consolidated assets, but certain rules also apply to banks and bank holding companies with at least $10 billion in total consolidated assets.

If the Company’s or the Bank’s total consolidated assets, as applicable, equal or exceed $10 billion, the Company or the Bank, as applicable, may, among other requirements: (i) be required to perform annual stress tests; (ii) be required to establish a dedicated risk committee of the board of directors responsible for overseeing enterprise-wide risk management policies, which must be commensurate with capital structure, risk profile, complexity, activities, size, and other appropriate risk-related factors, and must include as a member at least one risk management expert; (iii) be examined for compliance with federal consumer protection laws primarily by the CFPB; (iv) be subject to increased FDIC deposit insurance assessment requirements; (v) be subject to a cap on debit card interchange fees; and (vi) be subject to higher regulatory capital requirements.

While the Company and the Subsidiary BanksBank do not currently have not been made aware of any instances of non-compliance$10 billion or more in total consolidated assets, the Company’s has begun analyzing these requirements and developing action plans for complying with the final guidance.

rules when and if they become applicable. Assuming the Company continues to grow assets organically, and not as a result of acquisitions, at the same rate of growth experienced in 2016, the Company would expect to cross the $10 billion asset threshold in early 2019.


Future Regulation
From time to time, various legislative and regulatory initiatives are introduced in Congress and state legislatures, as well as by regulatory agencies. Such initiatives may include proposals to expand or contract the powers of bank holding companies and depository institutions or proposals to substantially change the financial institution regulatory system. Such legislation could change banking statutes and the operating environment of the Company and the Bank in substantial and unpredictable ways. If enacted, such legislation could increase or decrease the cost of doing business, limit or expand permissible activities, or affect the competitive balance among banks, savings associations, credit unions, and other financial institutions. The Company

cannot predict whether any such legislation will be enacted, and, if enacted, the effect that it, or any implementing regulations, would have on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company or the Bank.
Effect of Governmental Monetary Policies

The Company’s operations are affected not only by general economic conditions but also by the policies of various regulatory authorities. In particular, the Federal Reserve regulatesuses monetary policy tools to impact money market and credit market conditions and interest rates to influence general economic conditions. These policies have a significant impact on overall growth and distribution of loans, investments, and deposits; they affect market interest rates charged on loans or paid for time and savings deposits. Federal Reserve monetary policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks, including the Company, in the past and are expected to do so in the future.

ITEM 1A. - RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Company’s securities involves risks. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, including the information addressed under “Forward-Looking Statements,” investors in the Company’s securities should carefully consider the factors discussed below. These factors could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and capital position and could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from its historical results or the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report, in which case the trading price of the Company’s securities could decline.

Risks Related To Theto the Company’s Business

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by conditions in the financial markets and economic conditions generally.

The community banking industry is directly affected by national, regional, and local economic conditions. The economyeconomies in the Company’s footprint showed some signs of improvementmarket areas continued to improve during 2013,2016, though growth remainsremained sluggish and unemployment continues to be elevated. The effects of federal sequestration and spending cuts on Virginia’s economy remain uncertain and could have significant consequences.there is no assurance that economic improvements will continue in the future. Management allocates significant resources to mitigate and respond to risks associated with the currentchanging economic conditions, however, such conditions cannot be predicted or controlled. Therefore, suchAdverse changes in economic conditions, including a reduction in federal government spending, a flatter yield curve, and extended low interest rates, or negative changes in consumer and business spending, borrowing, and savings habits, could adversely affect the credit quality of the Company’s loans, and/or the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The Company’s financial performance is dependent on the business environment in the markets where the Company operates, in particular, the ability of borrowers to pay interest on and repay principal of outstanding loans and the value of collateral securing those loans, as well as demand for loans and other products and services the Company offers. In addition, the Company holds securities which can be significantly affected by various factors, including interest rates and credit ratings assigned by third parties, andparties. Rising interest rates or an adverse credit rating inon securities held by the Company could result in a reduction of the fair value of its securities portfolio and have an adverse impact on itsthe Company's financial condition.

The Company’s loan and deposit activities are directly affected by, and the anticipated benefits and cost savings ofCompany’s financial success depends on, economic conditions within the merger may not be realized.

The Company and StellarOne operated independently until the completion of the mergerlocal markets in January 2014. The success of the merger will depend, in part, on the Company’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from combining and integrating the businesses ofwhich the Company and StellarOne and to do so in a manner that permits growth opportunities and cost savings to be realized without materially disrupting existing customer relationships or decreasing revenues due to loss of customers. The integration processdoes business, as well as conditions in the mergerindustries on which those markets are economically dependent. A deterioration in local economic conditions or in the condition of an industry on which a local market depends could adversely affect such factors as unemployment rates, business formations and expansions, housing demand, apartment vacancy rates and real estate values in the local market, and this could result in, among other things, a decline in loan demand, a reduction in the lossnumber of key employees,creditworthy borrowers seeking loans, an increase in loan delinquencies, defaults and foreclosures, an increase in classified and nonaccrual loans, a decrease in the disruptionvalue of ongoingloan collateral and a decline in the net worth and liquidity of borrowers and guarantors.

The inability of the Company to successfully manage its growth or implement its growth strategy may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial conditions.

The Company may not be able to successfully implement its growth strategy if it is unable to identify and compete for attractive markets, locations, or opportunities to expand in the future. In addition, the ability to manage growth successfully depends on whether the Company can maintain adequate capital levels, maintain cost controls, effectively manage asset quality, and successfully integrate any businesses acquired into the organization.

- 13 -

As consolidation within the financial services industry continues, the competition for suitable strategic acquisition candidates may increase. The Company will compete with other financial services companies for acquisition and expansion opportunities, and many of those competitors will have greater financial resources than the Company continuesdoes and may be able to pay more for an acquisition than the Company is able or willing to pay. The Company cannot assure that it will have opportunities to acquire other financial institutions or acquire or establish any new branches on attractive terms or at all, or that the Company will be able to negotiate, finance, and complete any opportunities available to it.

If the Company is unable to effectively implement its strategies for organic growth strategy by opening new branches or acquiring branches or banks, it expects to incur increased personnel, occupancy, and other operating expenses. In the casestrategic acquisitions, its business, results of new branches, the Company must absorb those higher expenses while it begins to generate new deposits; there is also further time lag involved in redeploying new deposits into attractively priced loansoperations, and other higher yielding earning assets. Thus, the Company’s plans to expand could depress earnings in the short run, even if it efficiently executes a branching strategy leading to long-term financial benefits.

condition may be materially adversely affected.

Difficulties in combining the operations of acquired entities with the Company’s own operations may prevent the Company from achieving the expected benefits from acquisitions.

The Company may not be able to achieve fully the strategic objectives and operating efficiencies expected in an acquisition, including the Company’s recent acquisition of StellarOne.acquisition. Inherent uncertainties exist in integrating the operations of an acquired entity. In addition, the markets and industries in which the Company and its potential acquisition targets operate are highly competitive. The Company may lose its customers and/or the customerskey personnel or those of acquired entities as a result of an acquisition; theacquisition. The Company may lose key personnel, either from the acquired entity or from itself; and the Company mayalso not be able to control the incremental increase in noninterest expense arising from an acquisition in a manner that improves its overall operating efficiencies. These factors could contribute to the Company’sCompany not achieving the expected benefits from its acquisitions within desired time frames, if at all. Future business acquisitions could be material to the Company and it may issue additional shares of common stock to pay for those acquisitions, which would dilute current shareholders’ ownership interests. Acquisitions also could require the Company to use substantial cash or other liquid assets or to incur debt; the Company could therefore become more susceptible to economic downturns and competitive pressures.

Further, acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book and market values and, therefore, some dilution of the Company’s tangible book value and net income per common share may occur in connection with any future acquisitions.

Changes in interest rates could adversely affect the Company’s income and cash flows.

The Company’s income and cash flows depend to a great extent on the difference between the interest rates earned on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and the interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. These rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond the Company’s control, including general economic conditions and the policies of the Federal Reserve and other governmental and regulatory agencies. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, will influence the origination of loans, the prepayment of loans, the fair value of existing assets and liabilities, the purchase of investments, the retention and generation of deposits, and the rates received on loans and investment securities and paid on deposits or other sources of funding. The impact of these changes may be magnified if the Company does not effectively manage the relative sensitivity of its assets and liabilities to changes in market interest rates. In addition, the Company’s ability to reflect such interest rate changes in pricing its products is influenced by competitive pressures. Fluctuations in these areas may adversely affect the Company and its shareholders. The Subsidiary Banks are often at a competitive disadvantage in managing its costs of funds compared to the large regional, super-regional, or national banks that have access to the national and international capital markets.

The Company generally seeks to maintain a neutral position in terms of the volume of assets and liabilities that mature or re-price during any period so that it may reasonably maintain its net interest margin; however, interest rate fluctuations, loan prepayments, loan production, deposit flows, and competitive pressures are constantly changing and influence the ability to maintain a neutral position. Generally, the Company’s earnings will be more sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates depending upon the variance in volume of assets and liabilities that mature and re-price in any period. The extent and duration of the sensitivity will depend on the cumulative variance over time, the velocity and direction of changes in interest rates, shape and slope of the yield curve, and whether the Company is more asset sensitive or liability sensitive. Accordingly, the Company may not be successful in maintaining a neutral position and, as a result, the Company’s net interest margin may be affected.

The Company’s allowancemortgage revenue is cyclical and is sensitive to the level of interest rates, changes in economic conditions, decreased economic activity, and slowdowns in the housing market, any of which could adversely impact the Company’s profits.
The success of the Company’s mortgage business is dependent upon its ability to originate loans and sell them to investors, in each case at or near current volumes. Loan production levels are sensitive to changes in the level of interest rates and changes in economic conditions. Loan production levels may suffer if the Company experiences a slowdown in the local housing market or tightening credit conditions. Any sustained period of decreased activity caused by fewer refinancing transactions,


13



higher interest rates, housing price pressure, or loan underwriting restrictions would adversely affect the Company’s mortgage originations and, consequently, could significantly reduce its income from mortgage activities. As a result, these conditions would also adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.
Deteriorating economic conditions may also cause home buyers to default on their mortgages. In certain cases where the Company has originated loans and sold them to investors, the Company may be required to repurchase loans or provide a financial settlement to investors if it is proven that the borrower failed to provide full and accurate information on, or related to, their loan application, if appraisals for such properties have not been acceptable or if the loan losseswas not underwritten in accordance with the loan program specified by the loan investor. In the ordinary course of business, the Company records an indemnification reserve relating to mortgage loans previously sold based on historical statistics and loss rates. If such reserves were insufficient to cover claims from investors, such repurchases or settlements would adversely affect the Company's results of operations.
The Company’s ALL may prove to be insufficient to absorb losses in its loan portfolio.

Like all financial institutions, the Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to provide for loans that its borrowers may not repay in their entirety. The Company believes that it maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the corresponding balance sheet date and in compliance with applicable accounting and regulatory guidance. However, the allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses and future provisions for loan losses could materially and adversely affect the Company’s operating results.Accountingresults. Accounting measurements related to impairment and the loan loss allowance requirerequires significant estimates that are subject to uncertainty and changes relating to new information and changing circumstances. The significant uncertainties surrounding the ability of the Company’s borrowers to execute their business models successfully through changing economic environments, competitive challenges, and other factors complicate the Company’s estimates of the risk of loss and amount of loss on any loan. Because of the degree of uncertainty and susceptibility of these factors to change, the actual losses may vary from current estimates. The Company expects possible fluctuations in the loan loss provisions due to the uncertain economic conditions.

The Company’s banking regulators, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to increase its allowance for loan losses by recognizing additional provisions for loan losses charged to expense, or to decrease the allowance for loan losses by recognizing loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. Any such required additional provisions for loan losses or charge-offs could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’sBank’s concentration in loans secured by real estate may adversely affect earnings due to changes in the real estate markets.

The CompanyBank offers a variety of secured loans, including commercial lines of credit, commercial term loans, real estate, construction, home equity, consumer, and other loans. Many of the Company’sBank’s loans are secured by real estate (both residential and commercial) in the Company’s market areas.. A major change in the real estate markets, resulting in deterioration in the value of this collateral, or in the local or national economy, could adversely affect borrowers’ ability to pay these loans, which in turn could negatively affect the Company.Bank. Risks of loan defaults and foreclosures are unavoidable in the banking industry; the CompanyBank tries to limit its exposure to these risks by monitoring extensions of credit carefully. The CompanyBank cannot fully eliminate credit risk; thus, credit losses will occur in the future. Additionally, changes in the real estate market also affect the value of foreclosed assets, and therefore, additional losses may occur when management determines it is appropriate to sell the assets.

The CompanyBank has a significant concentration of credit exposure in commercial real estate, and loans with this type of collateral are viewed as having more risk of default.

The Company’sBank’s commercial real estate portfolio consists primarily of owner-operatednon-owner-operated properties and other commercial properties. These types of loans are generally viewed as having more risk of default than residential real estate loans. They are also typically larger than residential real estate loans and consumer loans and depend on cash flows from the owner’s business or the property to service the debt. Cash flows may be affected significantly by general economic conditions, and a downturn in the local economy or in occupancy rates in the local economy where the property is located could increase the likelihood of default. Because the Company’sBank’s loan portfolio contains a number of commercial real estate loans with relatively large balances, the deterioration of one or a few of these loans could cause a significant increase in the percentage of non-performing loans. An increase in non-performing loans could result in a loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for loan losses and an increase in charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’sBank’s financial condition.

condition and results of operations.

The Company’sBank’s banking regulators generally give commercial real estate lending greater scrutiny and may require banks with higher levels of commercial real estate loans to implement improvedenhanced risk management practices, including underwriting, internal controls, risk management policies, and portfolio stress testing, as well as possibly higher levels of allowances for


14



losses and capital levels as a result of commercial real estate lending growth and exposures, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’sBank’s results of operations.

The Company’sBank’s loan portfolio contains construction and development loans, and a decline in real estate values and economic conditions wouldcould adversely affect the value of the collateral securing the loans and have an adverse effect on the Company’sBank’s financial condition.

Although most

Construction and development loans are generally viewed as having more risk than residential real estate loans because repayment is often dependent on completion of the Company’sproject and the subsequent financing of the completed project as a commercial real estate or residential real estate loan and, in some instances, on the rent or sale of the underlying project.
Although the Bank’s construction and development loans are primarily secured by real estate, the CompanyBank believes that, in the case of the majority of these loans, the real estate collateral by itself may not be a sufficient source for repayment of the loan if real estate values decline and there is a downturn in the local and national economies.decline. If the CompanyBank is required to liquidate the collateral securing a construction and development loan to satisfy the debt, its earnings and capital may be adversely affected. A period of reduced real estate values may continue for some time, resulting in potential adverse effects on the Company’sBank’s earnings and capital.

The Bank relies upon independent appraisals to determine the value of the real estate which secures a significant portion of its loans, and the values indicated by such appraisals may not be realizable if the Bank is forced to foreclose upon such loans.
A significant portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio consists of loans secured by real estate. The Bank relies upon independent appraisers to estimate the value of such real estate. Appraisals are only estimates of value and the independent appraisers may make mistakes of fact or judgment that adversely affect the reliability of their appraisals. In addition, events occurring after the initial appraisal may cause the value of the real estate to increase or decrease. As a result of any of these factors, the real estate securing some of the Bank’s loans may be more or less valuable than anticipated at the time the loans were made. If a default occurs on a loan secured by real estate that is less valuable than originally estimated, the Bank may not be able to recover the outstanding balance of the loan.  
The Company’s credit standards and its on-going credit assessment processes might not protect it from significant credit losses.

The Company assumes credit risk by virtue of making loans and leases and extending loan commitments and letters of credit. The Company manages credit risk through a program of underwriting standards, the heightened review of certain credit decisions, and a continuous quality assessment process of credit already extended. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is managed through the use of consistent underwriting standards that emphasize local lending while avoiding highly leveraged transactions as well as excessive industry and other concentrations. The Company’s credit administration function employs risk management techniques to help ensure that problem loans and leases are promptly identified. While these procedures are designed to provide the Company with the information needed to implement policy adjustments where necessary and to take appropriate corrective actions, there can be no assurance that such measures will be effective in avoiding undue credit risk.

- 15 -

The Company’s focus on lending to small to mid-sized community-based businesses may increase its credit risk.

Most of the Company’s commercial business and commercial real estate loans are made to small business or middle market customers. These businesses generally have fewer financial resources in terms of capital or borrowing capacity than larger entities and have a heightened vulnerability to economic conditions. If general economic conditions in the market areas in which the Company operates negatively impact this important customer sector, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. Moreover, a portion of these loans have been made by the Company in recent years and the borrowers may not have experienced a complete business or economic cycle. Any deterioration of the borrowers’ businesses may hinder their ability to repay their loans with the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Nonperforming assets take significant time to resolve and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

The Company’s nonperforming assets adversely affect its net income in various ways. The Company does not record interest income on nonaccrual loans, which adversely affects its income and increases loan administration costs. When the Company receives collateral through foreclosures and similar proceedings, it is required to mark the related loan to the then fair market value of the collateral less estimated selling costs, which may result in a loss. An increase in the level of nonperforming assets also increases the Company’s risk profile and may affect the minimum capital levels regulators believe are appropriate for the Company in light of such risks. The Company utilizes various techniques such as workouts, restructurings, and loan sales to manage problem assets. Increases in or negative adjustments in the value of these problem assets, the underlying collateral, or in the borrowers’ performance or financial condition, could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, the resolution of nonperforming assets requires significant commitments of time from


15



management and staff, which can be detrimental to the performance of their other responsibilities, including origination of new loans. There can be no assurance that the Company will avoid further increases in nonperforming loansassets in the future.

The Company faces substantial competition that could adversely affect the Company’s growth and/or operating results.

The Company operates in a competitive market for financial services and faces intense competition from other financial institutions both in making loans and attracting deposits which can greatly affect pricing for ourits products and services. The Company’s primary competitors include community, regional, and national banks as well as credit unions and mortgage companies. Many of these financial institutions have been in business for many years, are significantly larger and have established customer bases, and have greater financial resources, and higher lending limits. In addition, credit unions are exempt from corporate income taxes, providing a significant competitive pricing advantage.advantage compared to banks. Accordingly, some of the Company’s competitors in its market have the ability to offer products and services that it is unable to offer or to offer such products and services at more competitive rates.

The Company’s consumers may increasingly decide not to use the Bank to complete their financial transactions, which would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and operations.
Technology and other changes are allowing parties to complete financial transactions through alternative methods that historically have involved banks. For example, consumers can now maintain funds that would have historically been held as bank deposits in brokerage accounts, mutual funds, or general-purpose reloadable prepaid cards. Consumers can also complete transactions such as paying bills and/or transferring funds directly without the assistance of banks. The process of eliminating banks as intermediaries, known as “disintermediation,” could result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and the related income generated from those deposits. The loss of these revenue streams and the lower cost of deposits as a source of funds could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Any future action by the U.S. Congress lowering the federal corporate income tax rate and/or eliminating the federal corporate alternative minimum tax could result in the need to establish a deferred tax asset valuation allowance and a corresponding charge against earnings.
The President of the U.S. and the majority political party in the U.S. Congress have announced plans to lower the federal corporate income tax rate from its current level of 35% and to eliminate the corporate alternative minimum tax.  If these plans ultimately result in the enactment of new laws lowering the corporate income tax rate by a material amount and/or eliminating the corporate alternative minimum tax, certain of the Company’s deferred tax assets would need to be re-measured to evaluate the impact that the lower tax rate and/or the elimination of the corporate alternative minimum tax will have on the currently expected full utilization of the deferred tax assets.  If the lower tax rate and/or the elimination of the corporate alternative minimum tax makes it more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance will need to be recognized and this would result in a corresponding charge against the Company’s earnings.
The carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets may be adversely affected.

When the Company completes an acquisition, often times, goodwill isand other intangible assets are recorded on the date of acquisition as an asset. Current accounting guidance requires goodwill to be tested for impairment;impairment, and the Company performs such impairment analysis at least annually. A significant adverse change in expected future cash flows or sustained adverse change in the Company’s common stock could require the asset to become impaired. If impaired, the Company would incur a charge to earnings that would have a significant impact on the results of operations. The Company’s carrying value of goodwill was approximately $59.4$298.2 million at December 31, 2013.

2016, which included goodwill recorded with the Company’s acquisition of StellarOne.

The Company’s risk-management framework may not be effective in mitigating risk and loss.
The Company maintains an enterprise risk management program that is designed to identify, assess, mitigate, monitor, and report the risks that it faces. These risks include: interest-rate, credit, liquidity, operational, reputation, compliance, and legal. While the Company assesses and improves this program on an ongoing basis, there can be no assurance that its approach and framework for risk management and related controls will effectively mitigate all risk and limit losses in its business. If conditions or circumstances arise that expose flaws or gaps in the Company’s risk-management program, or if the Company's controls break down, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

The Company’s exposure to operational, technological, and organizational risk may adversely affect the Company.

Similar to other financial institutions, the Company is exposed to many types of operational and technological risk, including reputation, legal, and compliance risk. The Company’s ability to grow and compete is dependent on its ability to build or acquire the necessary operational and technological infrastructure and to manage the cost of that infrastructure while it expands and integrates acquired businesses. Operational risk can manifest itself in many ways, such as errors related to failed or inadequate processes, faulty or disabled computer systems, fraud by employees or persons outside of the Company, and exposure to external events. The Company is dependent on its operational infrastructure to help manage these risks. From time to time, it may need to change or upgrade its technology infrastructure. The Company may experience disruption, and it may face additional exposure to these risks during the course of making such changes. As the Company acquires other financial institutions, it faces additional challenges when integrating different operational platforms. Such integration efforts may be more disruptive to the Company's business and/or more costly or time-intensive than anticipated.

The Company continually encounters technological change which could affect its ability to remain competitive.
The financial services industry is continually undergoing technological change with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. The effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and to reduce costs. The Company continues to invest in technology and connectivity to automate functions previously performed manually, to facilitate the ability of customers to engage in financial transactions, and otherwise to enhance the customer experience with respect to its products and services. The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by cyber security risks.

Incontinued success depends, in part, upon its ability to address the ordinary course of business, the Company collects and stores sensitive data, including proprietary business information and personally identifiable informationneeds of its customers by using technology to provide products and employeesservices that satisfy customer demands and create efficiencies in systemsits operations. A failure to maintain or enhance a competitive position with respect to technology, whether because of a failure to anticipate customer expectations, substantially fewer resources to invest in technological improvements than larger competitors, or because the Company’s technological developments fail to perform as desired or are not rolled out in a timely manner, may cause the Company to lose market share or incur additional expense.

From time to time, the Company may implement new lines of business or offer new products and useservices within existing lines of this information is criticalbusiness. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts, particularly in instances where the markets are not fully developed. In developing and marketing new lines of business and/or new products and services, the Company may invest significant time and resources. Initial timetables for the introduction and development of new lines of business and/or new products or services may not be achieved and price and profitability targets may not prove feasible. External factors, such as competitive alternatives and shifting market preferences, may also impact the successful implementation of a new line of business and/or a new product or service. Furthermore, strategic planning remains important as the Company adopts innovative products, services, and processes in response to operationsthe evolving demands for financial services and the Company’sentrance of new competitors, such as out-of-market banks and financial technology firms.

Multiple major U.S. retailers have experienced data systems incursions in lower revenues or greater expenses.

Legislative or regulatory changes or actions, or significant litigation, couldrecent years reportedly resulting in the thefts of credit and debit card information, online account information, and other financial data of tens of millions of the retailers’ customers. Retailer incursions affect cards issued and deposit accounts maintained by many banks, including the Bank. Although neither the Company’s nor the Bank’s systems are breached in retailer incursions, such incursions can still cause customers to be dissatisfied with the Bank and otherwise adversely affect the Company orCompany's and the businesses in whichBank's reputation.

The impact of any changes to laws and regulationsintrusion or other actions by regulatory agencies may negatively affect the Company or its ability to increase the value of its business. Such changes could include higher capital requirements, increased insurance premiums, increased compliance costs, reductions of non-interest income, and limitations on services that can be provided. Actions by regulatory agencies or significant litigation against the Company could cause it to devote significant time and resources to defend itself and may lead to liability or penalties that materially affect the Company and its shareholders. Future changes in the laws or regulations or their interpretations or enforcement could be materially adverse to the Company and its shareholders.

The Dodd-Frank Act substantially changes the regulation of the financial services industry and it could have a material adverse effect upon the Company.

The Dodd-Frank Act provides wide-ranging changes in the way banks and financial services firms generally are regulated and affects the way the Company and its customers and counterparties do business with each other. Among other things, it requires increased capital and regulatory oversight for banks and their holding companies, changes the deposit insurance assessment system, changes responsibilities among regulators, establishes the new CFPB, and makes various changes in the securities laws and corporate governance that affect public companies, including the Company. The Dodd-Frank Act also requires numerous studies and regulations related to its implementation. The Company is continually evaluating the effects of the Dodd-Frank Act, together with implementing the regulations that have been proposed and adopted. The ultimate effects of the Dodd-Frank Act and the resulting rulemaking cannot be predicted at this time, but it has increased our operating and compliance costs in the short-term, and it could have a material adverse effect ondisruption not within the Company’s results of operationnor the Bank’s control include internet service providers, electronic mail portal providers, social media portals, distant-server (“cloud”) service providers, electronic data security providers, telecommunications companies, and financial condition.

The Company and the Subsidiary Banks are each subject to capital adequacy guidelines and other regulatory requirements specifying minimum amounts and types of capital which each must maintain. From time to time, regulators implement changes to these regulatory capital adequacy guidelines. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the federal banking agencies have established stricter capital requirements and leverage limits for banks and bank holding companies that are based on the Basel III regulatory capital reforms. If the Company and the Subsidiary Banks fail to meet these minimum capital guidelines and/or other regulatory requirements, the Company’s financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

New regulations issued by the CFPB could adversely impact the Company’s earnings.

The CFPB has broad rulemaking authority to administer and carry out the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act with respect to financial institutions that offer covered financial products and services to consumers. Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB issued a final rule effective January 10, 2014, requiring mortgage lenders to make a reasonable and good faith determination based on verified and documented information that a consumer applying for a mortgage loan has a reasonable ability to repay the loan according to its terms, or to originate “qualified mortgages” that meet specific requirements with respect to terms, pricing and fees. The new rule also contains new disclosure requirements at mortgage loan origination and in monthly statements. These requirements could limit the Company’s ability to make certain types of loans or loans to certain borrowers, or could make it more expensive and/or time consuming to make these loans, which could adversely impact the Company’s profitability.

The Subsidiary Banks rely upon independent appraisals to determine the value of the real estate which secures a significant portion of its loans, and the values indicated by such appraisals may not be realizable if the Subsidiary Banks are forced to foreclose upon such loans.

A significant portion of the Subsidiary Banks’ loan portfolio consists of loans secured by real estate. The Subsidiary Banks rely upon independent appraisers to estimate the value of such real estate. Appraisals are only estimates of value and the independent appraisers may make mistakes of fact or judgment that adversely affect the reliability of their appraisals. In addition, events occurring after the initial appraisal may cause the value of the real estate to increase or decrease. As a result of any of these factors, the real estate securing some of the Subsidiary Bank’s loans may be more or less valuable than anticipated at the time the loans were made. If a default occurs on a loan secured by real estate that is less valuable than originally estimated, the Subsidiary Banks may not be able to recover the outstanding balance of the loan.  

The Company and the Subsidiary BanksBank rely on other companies to provide key components of itstheir business infrastructure.

Third parties provide key components of the Company’s (and the Subsidiary Banks’)Bank’s) business operations such as data processing, recording and monitoring transactions, online banking interfaces and services, internet connections, and network access. While the Company has selected these third party vendors carefully, it does not control their actions. Any problem caused by these third parties, includingsuch as poor performance of services, failure to provide services, disruptions in communication services provided

by a vendor, and failure to handle current or higher volumes could adversely affect the Company’s ability to deliver products and services to its customers and otherwise conduct its business, and may harm its reputation. Financial or operational difficulties of a third party vendor could also hurt the Company’s operations if those difficulties affect the vendor’s ability to serve the Company. Replacing these third party vendors could also create significant delay and expense. Accordingly, use of such third parties creates an unavoidable inherent risk to the Company’s business operations.

The Company depends on the accuracy and completeness of information about clients and counterparties, and its financial condition could be adversely affected if it relies on misleading information.

In deciding whether to extend credit or to enter into other transactions with clients and counterparties, the Company may rely on information furnished to it by or on behalf of clients and counterparties, including financial statements and other financial information, which the Company does not independently verify. The Company also may rely on representations of clients and counterparties as to the accuracy and completeness of that information and, with respect to financial statements, on reports of independent auditors. For example, in deciding whether to extend credit to clients, the Company may assume that a customer’s audited financial statements conform to GAAP and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the customer. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted to the extent it relies on financial statements that do not comply with GAAP or are materially misleading.

Changes

Negative perception of the Company through social media may adversely affect the Company’s reputation and business.
The Company’s reputation is critical to the success of its business. The Company believes that its brand image has been well received by customers, reflecting the fact that the brand image, like the Company’s business, is based in accounting standardspart on trust and confidence. The Company’s reputation and brand image could impact reported earnings.

These changes are difficultcontrol. Negative publicity, whether true or untrue, could affect the Company’s ability to predict and can materially impact how the Company records and reports its financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, the Company could be required to apply a newattract or revised standard retroactively, resulting in the restatement of financial statements for prior periods. Such changes could also requireretain customers, or cause the Company to incur additional liabilities or costs, or result in additional regulatory scrutiny.

Failure to maintain effective systems of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controlcontrols and procedures could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operation and financial condition.

Effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures are necessary for the Company to provide reliable financial reports, andto effectively prevent fraud, and to operate successfully as a public company. If the Company cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, its reputation and operating results would be harmed. As part of the Company’s ongoing monitoring of internal control, it may discover material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in its internal control that require remediation. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The Company has in the past discovered, and may in the future discover, specific areas of its internal controls that need improvement. Even so,In addition, the Company is continuingcontinually works to work to improve the overall operation of its internal controls. The Company cannot, however, be certain that these measures will ensure that it implements and maintains adequate controls over its financial processes and reporting in the future. Any failure to maintain effective controls or to timely implement any necessary improvement of the Company’s internal and disclosure controls could, among other things, result in losses from fraud or error, harm the Company’s reputation, or cause investors to lose confidence in the Company’s reported financial information, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operation and financial condition.

condition and the trading price of the Company's securities.

Limited availability of financing or inability to raise capital could adversely impact the Company.

The amount, type, source, and cost of the Company’s funding directly impacts the ability to grow assets. In addition, the Company could need to raise additional capital in the future to provide it with sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet its commitments and business needs, particularly if the Company’s asset quality or earnings were to deteriorate significantly. The ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowings, and other sources could become more difficult, more expensive, or altogether unavailable. A number of factors, many of which are outside the Company's control, could make such financing more difficult, more expensive or unavailable including: the financial condition of the Company at any given time; rate

disruptions in the capital markets; the reputation for soundness and security of the financial services industry as a whole; and competition for funding from other banks or similar financial service companies, some of which could be substantially larger or be more favorably rated.

Consumers may increasingly decide not to use the Subsidiary Banks to complete their financial transactions, which would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and operations.

Technology and other changes are allowing parties to complete financial transactions through alternative methods that historically have involved banks. For example, consumers can now maintain funds that would have historically been held as bank deposits in brokerage accounts, mutual funds or general-purpose reloadable prepaid cards. Consumers can also complete transactions such as paying bills and/or transferring funds directly without the assistance of banks. The process of eliminating banks as intermediaries, known as “disintermediation,” could result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and the related income generated from those deposits. The loss of these revenue streams and the lower cost of deposits as a source of funds could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

stronger credit ratings.

The Company is subject to claims and litigation pertaining to fiduciary responsibility.

From time to time, customers make claims and take legal action pertaining to the performance of the Company’s fiduciary responsibilities. Whether customer claims and legal action related to the performance of the Company’s fiduciary responsibilities are founded or unfounded, if such claims and legal actions are not resolved in a manner favorable to the Company, they may result in significant financial liability and/or adversely affect the market perception of the Company and its products and services, as well as impact customer demand for those products and services. Any financial liability or reputation damage could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

The Company is a defendant in a variety of litigation and other actions, which may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operation.

The Company may be involved from time to time in a variety of litigation arising out of its business. The Company’s insurance may not cover all claims that may be asserted against it, and any claims asserted against it, regardless of merit or eventual outcome, may harm the Company’s reputation. Should the ultimate judgments or settlements in any litigation exceed the Company’s insurance coverage, they could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operation for any period. In addition, the Company may not be able to obtain appropriate types or levels of insurance in the future, nor may the Company be able to obtain adequate replacement policies with acceptable terms, if at all.

Risks Related to the Company’s Regulatory Environment

On November 20, 2013,

The Company will become subject to additional regulatory requirements if and when its total assets exceed $10 billion, which could have an adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Various federal banking laws and regulations, including rules adopted by the Federal Reserve pursuant to the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, impose heightened requirements on certain large banks and bank holding companies. Most of these rules apply primarily to bank holding companies with at least $50 billion in total consolidated assets, but certain rules also apply to banks and bank holding companies with at least $10 billion in total consolidated assets.
Following the fourth consecutive quarter (and any applicable phase-in period) where the Company’s or the Bank’s total average consolidated assets equals or exceeds $10 billion, the Company entered intoor the Bank, as applicable, will, among other requirements:
be required to perform annual stress tests;
be required to establish a memorandumdedicated risk committee of understanding (the “Memorandum”)its board of directors responsible for overseeing its enterprise-risk management policies, commensurate with plaintiffs regardingits capital structure, risk profile, complexity, size and other risk-related factors, and including as a member at least one risk management expert;
be required to calculate its FDIC deposits assessment base using a performance score and loss-severity score system;
be subject to more frequent regulatory examinations; and
may be subject to examination for compliance with federal consumer protection laws, primarily by the settlementCFPB.
While the Company does not currently have $10 billion or more in total consolidated assets, it has begun analyzing these requirements to prepare the Company to comply with the rules when and if they become applicable. It is reasonable to assume that the Company’s total assets will exceed $10 billion in the future, based on the Company’s historic organic growth rates and its potential to grow through acquisitions.
Current and proposed regulation addressing consumer privacy and data use and security could increase the Company’s costs and impact its reputation.
The Company is subject to a number of laws concerning consumer privacy and data use and security, including information safeguard rules under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. These rules require that financial institutions develop, implement, and maintain a written, comprehensive information security program containing safeguards that are appropriate to the financial institution’s size and complexity, the nature and scope of the financial institution’s activities, and the sensitivity of any customer information at issue. The United States has experienced a heightened legislative and regulatory focus on privacy and data security, including requiring consumer notification in the event of a data breach. In addition, most states have enacted security breach legislation requiring varying levels of consumer notification in the event of certain types of security breaches. New regulations in these areas may increase compliance costs, which could negatively impact earnings. In addition, failure to comply with the privacy and data use and security laws and regulations to which the Company is subject, including by reason of inadvertent disclosure of confidential information, could result in fines, sanctions, penalties, or other adverse consequences

and loss of consumer confidence, which could materially adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, overall business, and reputation.
Legislative or regulatory changes or actions, or significant litigation, could adversely affect the Company or the businesses in responsewhich the Company is engaged.
The Company is subject to extensive state and federal regulation, supervision, and legislation that govern almost all aspects of its operations. These regulations affect the announcementCompany's lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy, and growth, among other things. Laws and regulations change from time to time and are primarily intended for the protection of consumers, depositors, the FDIC’s DIF, and the banking system of the StellarOne Merger Agreement. As described in the joint proxy statement/prospectuswhole, rather than shareholders. The impact of Unionany changes to laws and StellarOne dated October 22, 2013, on June 14, 2013, Jaclyn Crescente, individually and purportedly on behalf of allregulations or other StellarOne shareholders, filed a class action complaint against StellarOne, its current directors, StellarOne Bank (the “StellarOne Defendants”) andactions by regulatory agencies are unpredictable, but may negatively affect the Company or its ability to increase the value of its business. Such changes could include higher capital requirements, increased insurance premiums, increased compliance costs, reductions of noninterest income, limitations on services and products that can be provided, or the increased ability of nonbanks to offer competing financial services and products, among other things. Failure to comply with laws, regulations, and policies could result in actions by regulatory agencies or significant litigation against the U.S. District Court forCompany, which could cause the Western District of Virginia, Charlottesville Division (the “Court”) (Case No. 3:13-cv-00021-NKM). The complaint allegesCompany to devote significant time and resources to defend itself and may lead to liability, penalties, reputational damage, or regulatory restrictions that the StellarOne directors breached their fiduciary duties by approving the merger withmaterially adversely affect the Company and thatits shareholders. Future changes in the laws or regulations or their interpretations or enforcement could be materially adverse to the Company aided and abettedits shareholders.
The financial services industry, as well as the broader economy, may be subject to new legislation, regulation, and government policy.
At this time, it is difficult to predict the legislative and regulatory changes that will result from the combination of a new President of the United States and the first year since 2010 in such breacheswhich both Houses of duty.Congress and the White House have majority memberships from the same political party. The complaint seeks,new administration and/or Congress may change existing financial services regulations or enact new policies affecting financial institutions, specifically community banks. Such changes may include amendments to the Dodd-Frank Act and structural changes to the CFPB. The new Administration and Congress also may cause broader economic changes due to changes in governing ideology and governing style. New appointments to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve could affect monetary policy and interest rates, and changes in fiscal policy could affect broader patterns of trade and economic growth. Future legislation, regulation, and government policy could affect the banking industry as a whole, including the Company’s business and results of operations, in ways that are difficult to predict. In addition, the Company’s results of operations also could be adversely affected by changes in the way in which existing statutes and regulations are interpreted or applied by courts and government agencies.
The Company is subject to more stringent capital and liquidity requirements as a result of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and the Dodd-Frank Act, which could adversely affect its return on equity and otherwise affect its business.
The Company and the Bank are each subject to capital adequacy guidelines and other regulatory requirements specifying minimum amounts and types of capital which each must maintain. From time to time, regulators implement changes to these regulatory capital adequacy guidelines. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the federal banking agencies have established stricter capital requirements and leverage limits for banks and bank holding companies that are based on the Basel III regulatory capital reforms. These stricter capital requirements will be phased-in over a four-year period, which began on January 1, 2015, until they are fully-implemented on January 1, 2019. See “Business − Supervision and Regulation – The Bank - Capital Requirements” for further information about the requirements.
The application of more stringent capital requirements could, among other things, an order enjoiningresult in lower returns on equity, require the defendants from proceedingraising of additional capital, and result in regulatory actions if the Company were to be unable to comply with or consummatingsuch requirements. Furthermore, the merger, as well as other equitable relief and/or money damagesimposition of liquidity requirements in connection with the implementation of Basel III could result in the event thatCompany having to lengthen the transaction is completed. Underterm of its funding, restructure its business models, and/or increase its holdings of liquid assets. Implementation of changes to asset risk weightings for risk-based capital calculations, items included or deducted in calculating regulatory capital and/or additional capital conservation buffers could result in management modifying its business strategy, and could limit the terms of the Memorandum, the Company, the StellarOne Defendants and the plaintiffs have agreed to settle the lawsuit and release the defendants from all claims made by the plaintiffs relating to the merger, subject to approval by the Court. If the Court approves the settlement contemplated by the Memorandum, the lawsuit will be dismissed with prejudice. The parties to the Memorandum have agreed that final resolution by the Court of any fee petition will not be a precondition to the dismissal of the lawsuit. There can be no assurance that the parties will ultimately enter into a stipulation of settlement or that the Court will approve the settlement, even if the parties were to enter into such stipulation. In such event, the proposed settlement as contemplated by the Memorandum may be terminated.

Changes in accounting standards could impact reported earnings.
The authorities that promulgate accounting standards, including the FASB, SEC, and other regulatory authorities, periodically change the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These changes are difficult to predict and can materially impact how the Company records and reports its financial condition and results of operationsoperations. In some cases, the Company could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in the restatement of financial statements for prior periods. Such changes could also require the Company to incur additional personnel or technology costs.

The Company is a financial holding company and a bank holding company that conducts substantially all of its operations through the Subsidiary BanksBank and other subsidiaries. As a result, the Company’s ability to make dividend paymentsCompany relies on its common stock depends primarily on certain federal regulatory considerations and the receipt of dividends and other distributions from its subsidiaries.subsidiaries, particularly the Bank, for substantially all of its revenues. There are various regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Subsidiary BanksBank to pay dividends or make other payments to the Company. AlthoughAlso, the Company’s right to participate in a distribution of assets upon a subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization is subject to the prior claims of the subsidiary’s creditors. In the event the Bank is unable to pay dividends to the Company, the Company may not be able to service debt, pay obligations, or pay a cash dividend to the holders of its common stock and the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected. Further, although the Company has historically paid a cash dividend to the holders of its common stock, holders of the common stock are not entitled to receive dividends, and regulatory or economic factors may cause the Company’s boardBoard of directorsDirectors to consider, among other things, the reduction of dividends paid on the Company’s common stock.

stock even if the Bank continues to pay dividends to the Company.

While the Company’s common stock is currently traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, it has less liquidity than stocks for larger companies quoted on a national securities exchange.

The trading volume in the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market has been relatively low when compared with larger companies listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market or other stock exchanges. There is no assurance that a more active and liquid trading market for the common stock will exist in the future. Consequently, shareholders may not be able to sell a substantial number of shares for the same price at which shareholders could sell a smaller number of shares. In addition, wethe Company cannot predict the effect, if any, that future sales of the Company’sits common stock in the market, or the availability of shares of common stock for sale in the market, will have on the market price of the common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the market, or the potential for large amounts of sales in the market, could cause the price of the Company’s common stock to decline, or reduce the Company’s ability to raise capital through future sales of common stock.

Future issuances of the Company’s common stock could adversely affect the market price of the common stock and could be dilutive.

The Company is not restricted from issuing additional shares of common stock, including any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, shares of common stock. Issuances of a substantial number of shares of common stock, or the expectation that such issuances might occur, including in connection with acquisitions by the Company, could materially adversely affect the market price of the shares of the common stock and could be dilutive to shareholders. Because the Company’s decision to issue common stock in the future will depend on market conditions and other factors, it cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of possible future issuances of its common stock. Accordingly, the Company’s shareholders bear the risk that future issuances of common stock will reduce the market price of the common stock and dilute their stock holdings in the Company.

Common stock is equity and is subordinate to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and preferred stock and effectively subordinated to all the indebtedness and other non-common equity claims against the Bank and the Company’s other subsidiaries.

Shares of the Company’s common stock are equity interests and do not constitute indebtedness. As such, shares of the common stock will rank junior to all of the Company’s indebtedness and to other non-equity claims against the Company and its assets available to satisfy claims against it, including in the event of the Company’s liquidation. Additionally, holders of the Company’s common stock are subject to prior dividend and liquidation rights of holders of outstanding preferred stock, if any. The Company’s Board of Directors is authorized to issue classes or series of preferred stock without any action on the part of


21



the holders of the Company’s common stock, and the Company is permitted to incur additional debt. Upon liquidation, lenders and holders of the Company’s debt securities and preferred stock would receive distributions of the Company’s available assets prior to holders of the Company’s common stock. Furthermore, the Company’s right to participate in a distribution of assets upon any of its subsidiaries’ liquidation or reorganization is subject to the prior claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, including holders of any preferred stock of that subsidiary.
The Company’s governing documents and Virginia law contain anti-takeover provisions that could negatively affect its shareholders.

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and the Virginia Stock Corporation Act contain certain provisions designed to enhance the ability of the Company’s boardBoard of directorsDirectors to deal withrespond to attempts to acquire control of the Company. These provisions and the ability to set the voting rights, preferences, and other terms of any series of preferred stock that may be issued, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may discourage takeovers (which certain shareholders may deem to be in their best interest). To the extent that such takeover attempts are discouraged, temporary fluctuations in the market price of the Company’s common stock resulting from actual or rumored takeover attempts may be inhibited. These provisions also could discourage or make more difficult a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest, even though such transactions may be favorable to the interests of shareholders, and could potentially adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock.

The current economic conditions may cause volatility in the Company’s common stock value.

ITEM 7. - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis provides information about the major components of the results of operations and financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources of the Company and its subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the “Consolidated Financial Statements” and the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” presented in Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” contained in this Form 10-K.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries are in accordance with GAAP and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The Company’s financial position and results of operations are affected by management’s application of accounting policies, including estimates, assumptions, and judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities and amounts reported for revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in the Company’s consolidated financial position and/or results of operations.

The more critical accounting and reporting policies include the Company’s accounting for the allowance for loan losses, mergers and acquisitions,ALL, acquired loans, and goodwill and intangible assets. The Company’s accounting policies are fundamental to understanding the Company’s consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations. Accordingly, the Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

The following is a summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies that are highly dependent on estimates, assumptions, and judgments.

Allowance for Loan Losses

- The provision for loan losses charged to operations is an amount sufficient to bring the allowance for loan lossesALL to an estimated balance that management considers adequate to absorb potentialprobable losses inherent in the portfolio. Loans are charged against the allowanceALL when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Recoveriesunlikely, while recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance.ALL. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowanceALL is based on an evaluation of the composition of the loan portfolio, the value and adequacy of collateral, current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, and other risk factors. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, particularly those affecting real estate values. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically reviewManagement believes that the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to make adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

ALL is adequate.

The Company performs regular credit reviews of the loan portfolio to review the credit quality and adherence to its underwriting standards. The credit reviews consist of reviews by its Internal Audit group and reviews performed by an independent third party.Loan Review Group. Upon origination, each commercial loan is assigned a risk rating ranging from one to nine, with loans closer to one having less risk. This risk rating scale is the Company’s primary credit quality indicator. Consumer loans are generally not risk rated; the primary credit quality indicator for this portfolioloan segment is delinquency status. The Company has various committees that review and ensure that the allowance for loan lossesALL methodology is in accordance with GAAP and loss factors used appropriately reflect the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio.

The Company’s ALL consists of specific, general, and unallocatedqualitative components.

Specific Reserve Component -
The specific reserve component relates to impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Upon being identified as impaired, for loans not considered to be collateral dependent, an allowanceALL is then established when the discounted cash flows of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan. Nonaccrual loans under $100,000 and other impaired loans under $500,000 are aggregated based on similar risk characteristics. The level of credit impairment within the pool(s) is determined based on historical loss factors for loans with similar risk characteristics, taking into consideration environmental factors specifically related to the underlying pool. The impairment of collateral dependent loans is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, (based on independent appraisals), less selling costs, compared to the carrying value of the loan. If the Company determines that the value of an impaired collateral dependent loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, it either recognizes an impairment reserve as a specific component to be provided for in the allowance for loan lossesALL or charge-offcharges off the deficiency if it is determined that such amount represents a confirmed loss. Typically, a loss is confirmed when the Company is moving towards foreclosure (or final disposition) of the underlying collateral, the collateral deficiency has not improved for two consecutive quarters, or when there is a payment default of 180 days, whichever occurs first.

The Company obtains independent appraisals from a pre-approved list of independent, third party appraisal firms located in the market in which the collateral is located. The Company’s approved appraiser list is continuously maintained to ensure the list only includes such appraisers that have the experience, reputation, character, and knowledge of the respective real estate market. At a minimum, it is ascertained that the appraiser is currently licensed in the state in which the property is located, experienced in the appraisal of properties similar to the property being appraised, has knowledge of current real estate market conditions and financing trends, and is reputable. The Company’s internal Real Estate Valuation Group, which reports to the Risk and Compliance Group, performs either a technical or administrative review of all appraisals obtained. A technical review will ensure the overall quality of the appraisal, while an administrative review ensures that all of the required components of an appraisal are present. Generally, independent appraisals are updated every 12 to 24 months, or as necessary. The Company’s impairment analysis documents the date of the appraisal used in the analysis, whether the officer preparing the report deems it current, and, if not, allows for internal valuation adjustments with justification. Adjustments to appraisals generally include discounts for continued market deterioration subsequent to the appraisal date. Any adjustments from the appraised value to carrying value are documented in the impairment analysis, which is reviewed and approved by senior credit administration officers and the Special Assets Loan Committee. External appraisals are the primary source to value collateral dependent loans; however, the Company may also utilize values obtained through broker price opinions or other valuationsvaluation sources. These alternative sources of value are used only if deemed to be more representative of value based on updated information regarding collateral resolution. Impairment analyses are updated, reviewed, and approved on a quarterly basis at or near the end of each reporting period.

General Reserve Component-
The general reserve component covers non-impaired loans and is quantitatively derived from an estimate of credit losses adjusted for various environmental factors applicable to both commercial and consumer loan segments. The estimate of credit losses is a function of the product of net charge-off historical loss experience to the average loan balance of the loan portfolio averaged during the preceding twelve quarters, asa period that management has determined this to be adequately reflectreflective of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Effective December 31, 2016, the Company implemented a rolling 20-quarter look back period, which will be re-evaluated on a periodic basis to ensure the reasonableness of period being utilized. Previously, the Company had utilized a 12-quarter look back period. The change to the 20-quarter look back period is due to the protracted recovery in the economy and management's conclusion that a 20-quarter period better reflects a full economic cycle. This change did not have a material impact on the Company's ALL.
The qualitative environmental factors consist of national,portfolio, national/international, and local and portfolio characteristics and are applied to both the commercial and consumer loan segments.
The following table shows the types of environmental factors management considers:

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
Portfolio National / International Local
Experience and ability of lending team Interest rates Level of economic activity
Depth of lending teamCompare ratio consideration Inflation Unemployment
Pace of loan growth Unemployment Competition
FranchiseFootprint and expansion Gross domestic product Military/government impact

Value of real estate serving as collateralUnderwriting standards International uncertainty  
Delinquency levels in portfolio Home Price Index  
Charge-off levels in portfolio Commercial Real Estate Price Index  
Credit concentrations / nature and volume of the portfolio    

Unallocated Component– This component may be used to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio. Together, the specific, general, and any unallocated allowance for loan loss represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. Though provisions for loan losses may be based on specific loans, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for any loan management deems necessary to charge-off. At December 31, 2013, there were no material amounts considered unallocated as part of the allowance for loan losses.

Impaired Loans

Loans-A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. A loan that is classified substandard or worse is considered impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The impairedimpairment loan policy is the same for each of the seven classesall segments within the commercial portfolioloan segment.



30



For the consumer loan portfolio segment, large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. This evaluation subjects each of the Company’s homogenous pools to a historical loss factor derived from net charge-offs experienced over the preceding twelve quarters.20 quarters, as previously discussed. The Company applies payments received on impaired loans to principal and interest based on the contractual terms until they are placed on nonaccrual status. All payments received are then applied to reduce the principal balance and recognition of interest income is terminated.

Mergers and Acquisitions

The Company’s merger and acquisition strategy focusesterminated, as previously discussed.


Acquired Loans - Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at fair value on high-growth areasthe date of the acquisition. Loans acquired with strong market demographics and targets organizations that have a comparable corporate culture, strong performance, and good assetdeteriorated credit quality among other factors.

Business combinations are accounted for under ASC 805,Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date measured at their fair values as of that date. To determine the fair values, the Company will continue to rely on third party valuations, such as appraisals, or internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other valuation techniques. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company will identify the acquirer and the closing date and apply applicable recognition principles and conditions. If they are necessary to implement its plan to exit an activity of an acquiree, costs that the Company expects, but is not obligated, to incur in the future are not liabilities at the acquisition date, nor are costs to terminate the employment of or relocate an acquiree’s employees. The Company does not recognize these costs as part of applying the acquisition method. Instead, the Company recognizes these costs as expenses in its post-combination financial statements in accordance with other applicable GAAP.

Acquisition-related costsASC 310-30, Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality and are costsinitially measured at fair value, which includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the Company incurslife of the loans. Loans acquired in business combinations with evidence of credit deterioration are not considered to effect a business combination. Those costs include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees. Some other examples of acquisition-related costsbe impaired unless they deteriorate further subsequent to the Company include systems conversions, integration planning consultants,acquisition.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

-The Company follows ASC 350,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to initial recognition. The provisionsGoodwill resulting from business combinations prior to January 1, 2009 represents the excess of this guidance discontinued the amortizationpurchase price over the fair value of goodwillthe net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill resulting from business combinations after January 1, 2009, is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets withacquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite livesuseful life are not amortized, but require antested for impairment review at least annually andor more frequently if certainevents and circumstances exists that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. The Company has selected April 30th as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 4 to 14 years, to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Long-lived assets, including purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, such as the core deposit intangible asset, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. Management concluded that no circumstances indicating an impairment of these assets existed as of the balance sheet date.
The Company performed its annual impairment testing as of April 30, 2016 and determined that there was no impairment to its goodwill or intangible assets. The Company also performed a qualitative analysis to determine if any factors necessitated additional testing and no indicators are evident.

The Company experienced continued improvement in asset quality. Nonaccrual loans, past due loans, and efficiency ratio, see “NON-GAAP MEASURES” includedOREO balances declined from December 31, 2015.
Loans held for investment, net of deferred fees and costs, were $6.3 billion at December 31, 2016, an increase of $635.6 million, or 11.2%, from December 31, 2015. The increase was primarily driven by a combined growth of $535.5 million in this Item 7.

commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, and consumer loans. Year-to-date average loan balances increased $468.8 million, or 8.5%, from the prior year.

Total deposits at December 31, 2016 were $6.4 billion, an increase of $415.6 million, or 7.0%, when compared to $6.0 billion at December 31, 2015. The Company continued to experience a shift from time deposits into lower cost transaction accounts, specifically NOW and money market accounts, driven by the Company’s focus on acquiring low cost funding sources and customer preference for liquidity in response to current market conditions.
Total borrowings at December 31, 2016 were $990.1 million, an increase of $309.9 million, or 45.6%, when compared to $680.2 million at December 31, 2105. The increase was primarily driven by increases in short-term FHLB borrowings of $213.5 million. Additionally, the Company issued $150.0 million of long-term fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes in the fourth quarter of 2016.
On May 31, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of ODCM and recorded goodwill of $4.7 million and other amortizable intangible assets of $4.5 million.
Cash dividends per common share increased to $0.77 during 2016 from $0.68 per common share during 2015.

Net Income

2016 compared to 2015
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased $915,000,2016 increased $10.4 million, or 2.6%15.5%, from $35.4$67.1 million to $34.5$77.5 million and represented earnings per share of $1.38$1.77 compared to $1.37$1.49 for the prior year. Excluding after-tax acquisition-related expenses of $2.0 million, operating earnings for 2013 were $36.5 million and operating earnings per share was $1.46. Return on average tangible common equity (non-GAAP) for the year ended December 31, 20132016 was 7.91%11.45% compared to 8.13%10.00% for the prior year, while return on average assets was 0.85%0.96% compared to 0.89%0.90% for the prior year;year. For reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures, refer to section “Non-GAAP Measures” included within this Item 7.
Net interest income increased $13.3 million from 2015, primarily driven by an increase in interest and fees on loans due to higher average loan balances, partially offset by higher interest expense on borrowings and the impact of lower accretion of fair value adjustments for deposits. The provision for credit losses decreased $471,000 from $9.6 million in 2015 to $9.1 million in 2016 mainly due to lower charge-off levels and continued improvement in asset quality metrics in 2016.
Noninterest income increased $5.9 million from $65.0 million in 2015 to $70.9 million in 2016. The increase was driven by increases in loan-related interest-rate swap fees, customer-related fee income, mortgage banking income and fiduciary and asset management fees, which were partially offset by declines in other operating return on average equityincome due to nonrecurring income in 2015 related to gains from the dissolution of a limited partnership and the resolution of a problem credit resulting in a note sale.
Noninterest expense increased $5.8 million, or 2.7%, from $216.9 million in 2015 to $222.7 million in 2016. This increase is primarily driven by an increase in salaries and benefits expenses, professional services, and technology expenses, which were partially offset by decreases in OREO and credit-related expenses, and amortization of intangible assets.
2015 compared to 2014
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was 8.38%2015 increased $14.9 million, or 28.6%, from $52.2 million to $67.1 million and represented earnings per share of $1.49 compared to 8.13%$1.13 for the prior year. Excluding after-tax acquisition-related expenses of $13.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, operating earnings were $67.1 million and $65.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Operating earnings per share was $1.49 for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $1.43 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Operating return on average tangible common equity (which excludes after-tax acquisition-related expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2015 was 10.00% compared to 10.13% for 2014, while operating return on average assets was 0.90% compared to 0.89%0.91% for 2014. For reconciliation of the prior year.

The $915,000 decrease innon-GAAP operating measures, excluding acquisition-related costs, refer to section “Non-GAAP Measures” included within this Item 7.

Net interest income decreased $3.2 million from 2014, primarily driven by the impact of lower loan yields and lower net income was principally a result of a decrease in net interest margin of $2.7 millionaccretion related to a declineacquisition accounting. Excluding the impacts of acquisition accounting, interest expense declined as growth in the yield on interest-earning assets thatlow cost deposits outpaced the reductionnet run-off in thehigher cost certificates of funds, a decreasedeposit. The provision for credit losses increased $1.8 million from $7.8 million in noninterest income of $2.42014 to $9.6 million largelyin 2015 primarily due to lowerloan growth in 2015.
Noninterest income increased $3.7 million from $61.3 million in 2014 to $65.0 million in 2015. The majority of the increase was driven by increases in customer-related fee income and other operating income, which were partially offset by declines in gains on sales of mortgage loans, netsecurities and an OTTI charge in 2015.
Noninterest expense decreased $21.3 million, or 9.0%, from $238.2 million in 2014 to $216.9 million in 2015. Excluding acquisition-related costs of commission expenses, of $4.8$20.3 million and higherin 2014, noninterest expenses of $3.8 millionexpense decreased $989,000, or 0.5%. This decrease is primarily driven by salarya decrease in salaries and benefits expenses, OREO and costs related to the StellarOne merger. These itemscredit-related expenses, and amortization of core deposit intangibles, which were partially offset by a $6.1 million decreaseincreases in provision for loan losses due to continued improvement in asset quality.

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased $5.0 million, or 16.3%, from 2011. Net income available to common shareholders increased $7.6 million, or 27.5%, from 2011, which included preferred dividendstechnology expenses, marketing costs, professional fees, and discount accretion on preferred stock of $2.7 million. Return on average equity for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 8.13% compared to 6.90% for 2011 while return on average assets was 0.89% compared to 0.79% for 2011. Earnings per share was $1.37, an increase of $0.30, or 28.0%, from $1.07 for the year ended December 31, 2011. Earnings per share included preferred dividends and discount accretion on preferred stock of $2.7 million, or $0.10 per share, in 2011.

The $5.0 million increase in net income was principally a result of higher net gains on sales of mortgage loans driven by higher origination volumes, lower provision for loan losses, reductions in FDIC insurance expense due to changes in the assessment base and rate, lower core deposit intangible amortization expense, and an increase in account service charges and net debit and credit card interchange fees. Partially offsetting these results were higher salaries and benefits related to the addition of mortgage loan originators and support personnel in 2012 and lower net interest income driven by reductions in interest income on interest-earning assets that outpaced the impact of lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, which represents the principal source of revenue for the Company, is the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense. The net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. Changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as their respective yields and rates, have a significant impact on the level of net interest income, the net interest margin, and net income.

For the year ended December 31, 2013,2016, tax-equivalent net interest income was $156.9$275.4 million, a decreasean increase of $1.7$14.5 million or 1.1%, when comparedfrom the prior year, primarily driven by higher average loan balances. Net accretion related to the same period last year.acquisition accounting decreased $946,000 from $6.6 million in 2015 to $5.7 million in 2016. The tax-equivalent net interest margin decreased by 129 basis points to 4.22%3.80% from 4.34%3.89% in the prior year. Core tax-equivalent net interest margin (which excludes the 8 basis point and 10 basis point impact of acquisition accounting accretion in 2016 and 2015, respectively) decreased by 7 basis points to 3.72% in 2016 from 3.79% in 2015. The decline in the core net interest margin was principally due to the continued5 basis point decrease in interest-earning asset yields and the 2 basis point increase in cost of funds. The decline in accretion on the acquired net earning assets (-6 bps) and a decline in the yield on interest-earning assets that outpaced the reduction in the cost of funds (-6 bps). Lower interest-earning asset incomeyields was principally due toprimarily driven by lower loan yields, on loans as new loans and renewed loans were originated and repricedre-priced at lower rates, as well as lower levels of fees on loans.

For the year ended December 31, 2012,2015, tax-equivalent net interest income was $158.6$260.9 million, a decrease of $2.1$2.2 million or 1.3%, when comparedfrom 2014, primarily driven by the impact of declines in net interest margin and lower net accretion related to acquisition accounting. Excluding the same periodimpacts of acquisition accounting, interest expense declined as growth in 2011.low cost deposits outpaced the net run-off in higher cost certificates of deposit. Net accretion related to acquisition accounting decreased $3.4 million from $10.0 million in 2014 to $6.6 million in 2015. The tax-equivalent net interest margin decreased by 2320 basis points to 4.34%3.89% from 4.57%4.09% in 2011.2014.
Core tax-equivalent net interest margin (which excludes the 10 basis point and 16 basis point impact of acquisition accounting accretion in 2015 and 2014, respectively) decreased by 14 basis points. The decline in the core net interest margin was principally due to the continued20 basis point decrease in interest-earning asset yields outpacing the 6 basis point decline in accretion on the acquired net earning assets (-10 bps) and acost of funds. The decline in the yield on interest-earning assets that outpaced the reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities (-13 bps). Lower interest-earning asset incomeyields was principally due toprimarily driven by lower loan yields, on loans and investment securities as new loans and renewed loans were originated and repricedre-priced at lower rates, faster prepayments on mortgage backed securities, and cash flows from securities investments reinvested at lower yields. The reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was primarily driven by a shift in the mix of the Company’s deposit accounts as customers moved from certificates of deposits to transaction and money market accounts. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company modified its fixed rate convertible FHLB advances to floating rate advances, which resulted in reducing the Company’s FHLB borrowing costs. The modification of the FHLB advances lowered the 2012 cost of interest-bearing liabilities by 3 bps subsequent to executing the modification during the third quarter of 2012.

The Volume Rate Analysis table below presents changes in interest income and interest expense and distinguishes between the changes related to increases or decreases in average outstanding balances of earninginterest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (volume), and the changes related to increases or decreases in average interest rates on such assets and liabilities (rate). Changes attributable to both volume and rate have been allocated proportionally. Results, on a taxable equivalent basis, are as follows in this Volume Rate Analysis table for the years ended December 31, (dollars in thousands):

While the current economic environment is challenging, the Company remains committed to originating soundly underwritten loans to qualifying borrowers within its markets. The Company is focused on providing community-based financial services and discourages the origination of portfolio loans outside of its principal trade areas. As reflected in the loan table, at December 31, 2013,2016, the largest component of the Company’s loan portfolio consisted of commercial real estate loans, concentrated in commercial,residential 1-4 family loans, and construction and residential 1-4 family.land development loans. The risks attributable to these concentrations are mitigated by the Company’s credit underwriting and monitoring processes, including oversight by a centralized credit administration function and credit policy and risk management committee, as well as seasoned bankers focusing their lending to borrowers with proven track records in markets with which the Company is familiar. UMG primarily serves as a secondary mortgage brokeragebanking operation, selling the majority of its loan production in the secondary market or selling loans to meet the Bank’s current asset/liability management needs.

Asset Quality

Overview

During 2013, the

The Company continued to see improvement in asset quality with reduced levels of impaired loans, troubled debt restructurings, past due loans, and nonperforming assets, which were at their lowest levels since the fourth quarter of 2009. Net charge-offs and the loan loss provision, as well as their respective ratios of net charge-offs to total loans and provision to total loans, also decreased from the prior year. The allowance to nonperforming loans coverage ratio was at the highest level since the first quarter of 2008. The magnitude of any change in the real estate market andbelieves that its impact on the Company is still largely dependent upon continued recovery of residential housing and commercial real estate and the pace at which the local economies in the Company’s operating markets improve.

The Company’s continued proactive efforts to effectively manage its loan portfolio have contributed to the improvement in asset quality. Efforts include identifying existing problem credits as well as generating new business relationships. Through early identification and diligent monitoring of specific problem credits where the uncertainty has been realized, or conversely, has been reduced or eliminated, the Company’s management has been able to quantify the credit risk in its loan portfolio, adjust collateral dependent credits to appropriate reserve levels, and further identify those credits that are not recoverable. The Company continues to refrain from originating or purchasing loans from foreign entities or loans classified by regulators as highly leveraged transactions. The Company’s loan portfolio generally does not include exposure to option adjustable rate mortgage products, high loan-to-value ratio mortgages, interest only mortgage loans, subprime mortgage loans or mortgage loans with initial teaser rates, which are all considered higher risk instruments.

- 41 -

During 2016, the Company experienced declines in nonperforming asset balances and past due loan levels as well as lower net charge-off levels. OREO balances declined from the prior year; the declines were mostly attributable to sales in foreclosed land and residential real estate and developed lots. The loan loss provision decreased from the prior year due to lower levels of net charge-offs and continued improvement in credit quality metrics, while the allowance for loan loss increased from the prior year due to loan growth.
Troubled Debt Restructurings

A modification of a loan’s terms constitutes a TDR if the creditor grants a concession that it would not otherwise consider to the borrower for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties. The Company generally does notManagement strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status. These modified terms may include rate reductions, principal forgiveness, extension of terms that are considered to be below market, conversion to interest only, and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. In cases where borrowers are granted new terms that provide concessionfor a reduction of either interest or principal, management measures any impairment on interest rates,the restructuring accordingly and in accordance with the primary concession being an extension of the term of theimpaired loan from the original maturity date. policy.

Restructured loans for which there was no rate concession, and therefore made at a market rate of interest, may subsequently be eligible to be removed from TDR status in periods subsequent to the restructuring depending on the performance of the loan. The Company reviews previously restructured loans quarterly in order to determine whether any hashave performed, subsequent to the restructure, at a level that would allow for itthem to be removed from TDR status. The Company generally would consider a change in this classification if the borrower is no longer experiencing financial difficulties; the loan has performed under the restructured terms for a consecutive twelve month period.

period, and is no longer considered to be impaired. All changes to TDR designations must be approved by the Bank's Special Asset Loan Committee.


The total recorded investment in TDRs as of December 31, 20132016 was $41.8$15.4 million, a decreasean increase of $21.7$2.7 million, or 34.2%21.3%, from $63.5$12.7 million at December 31, 2012.2015. Of the $15.4 million of TDRs at December 31, 2016, $14.0 million, or 90.7%, were considered performing while the remaining $1.4 million were considered nonperforming. Of the $12.7 million of TDRs at December 31, 2015, $10.8 million, or 84.9%, were considered performing while the remaining $1.9 million were considered nonperforming. The declineincrease in the TDR balance from the prior year is attributable to $13.6$6.6 million in additions, partially offset by $1.3 million being removed from TDR status, $11.6$1.8 million in net payments, $2.4 millionand $810,000 in transfers to OREO, and $1.9 million in charge-offs, partially offset by additions of $7.8 million.charge-offs. Loans are removed from TDR status represent restructured loans with a market rate of interest at the time of the restructuring, which were performing in accordance with their modified terms for a consecutive twelve month periodthe established policy described in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Item 8 – Financial Statements and that were no longer considered impaired. Loans removed from TDR status are collectively evaluated for impairment and due to the significant improvement in the expected future cash flows, these loans are grouped based on their primary risk characteristics, typically using the Company’s internal risk rating system as its primary credit quality indicator, and impairment is measured based on historical loss experience taking into consideration environmental factors. The significant majoritySupplementary Data, of these loans have been subject to new credit decisions due to the improvement in the expected future cash flows, the financial condition of the borrower, and other factors considered during underwriting. The TDR activity during the quarter did not have a material impact on the Company’s allowance for loan losses, financial condition, or results of operations.

Of the $41.8 million of TDRs at December 31, 2013, $34.5 million, or 82.5%, were considered performing while the remaining $7.3 million were considered nonperforming. Of the $63.5 million of TDRs at December 31, 2012, $51.5 million, or 81.1%, were considered performing while the remaining $12.0 million were considered nonperforming.

Capital Resources

Capital resources represent funds, earned or obtained, over which financial institutions can exercise greater or longer control in comparison with deposits and borrowed funds. The adequacy of the Company’s capital is reviewed by management on an ongoing basis with reference to size, composition, and quality of the Company’s resources and consistency with regulatory requirements and industry standards. Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses, yet allow management to effectively leverage its capital to maximize return to shareholders.

The FRB and the FDIC have adopted capital guidelines to supplement the existing definitions of capital for regulatory purposes and to establish minimum capital standards. Specifically, the guidelines categorize assets and off-balance sheet items into four risk-weighted categories. The minimum ratio of qualifying total assets is 8.0%, of which 4.0% must be Tier 1 capital, consisting of principally common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of perpetual preferred stock, less certain intangible items. The table below shows the Company exceeded the definition of “well capitalized” for regulatory purposes.

In connection with two bank acquisitions, prior to 2006, the Company issued trust preferred capital notes to fund the cash portion of those acquisitions, collectively totaling $58.5 million. The trust preferred capital notes currently qualify for Tier 1 capital of the Company for regulatory purposes.

In July 2013, the FRBFederal Reserve issued revised final rules that maketo include technical changes to its market risk capital rules to align itthem with the Basel III regulatory capital framework and meet certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. TheEffective January 1, 2015, the final new capital rules require the Company and the Bank to comply with the following new minimum capital ratios, effective January 1, 2015: (1)ratios: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% of risk-weighted assets; (2)(ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6%6.0% of risk-weighted assets (increased from the currentprior requirement of 4%4.0%); (3)(iii) a total capital ratio of 8%8.0% of risk-weighted assets (unchanged from currentthe prior requirement); and (4)(iv) a leverage ratio of 4%4.0% of total assets.

Ifassets (unchanged from the newprior requirement). These capital requirements will be phased in over a four-year period. When fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the rules will require the Company and the Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (which is added to the 4.5% common equity Tier 1 ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7.0% upon full implementation), (ii) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 6.0% Tier 1 capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% upon full implementation), (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 8.0% total capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5% upon full implementation), and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets.


Beginning January 1, 2016, the capital conservation buffer requirement is being phased in at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, and will increase by the same amount each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.

During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company issued $150.0 million of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes with a maturity date of December 31, 2013, based on management’s interpretation15, 2026. The notes were sold at par, resulting in net proceeds, after discounts and understandingoffering expenses, of approximately $148.0 million. The subordinated notes are classified as Tier 2 capital for the new rules, the Company would have remained “well capitalized” as of such date.

Commitments and off-balance sheet obligations

Off-balance Sheet Obligations

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.Sheets. The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in particular classes of financial instruments. For more information pertaining to these commitments, reference Note 89 “Commitments and Contingencies” in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk.

At December 31, 2013, UMG had rate lock commitments to originate mortgage loans amounting to $54.8 million and loans held for sale of $53.2 million. UMG has entered into corresponding commitments on a best-efforts basis to sell loans on a servicing-released basis totaling approximately $108.0 million. These commitments to sell loans are designed to reduce the mortgage company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates in connection with rate lock commitments and loans held for sale.

MARKET RISK
Interest Sensitivity

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates, and equity prices. The Company’s market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The ALCO of the Company is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to this risk. The Company’s Board of Directors reviews and approves the guidelines established by the ALCO.

- 48 -

Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of three complementary modeling tools: static gap analysis, earnings simulation modeling, and economic value simulation (net present value estimation). Each of these models measures changes in a variety of interest rate scenarios. While each of the interest rate risk models has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably


51



comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk in the Company, the distribution of risk along the yield curve, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain interest rate relationships. Static gap, which measures aggregate re-pricing values, is less utilized because it does not effectively measure the options risk impact on the Company and is not addressed here. Earnings simulation and economic value models, which more effectively measure the cash flow and optionality impacts, are utilized by management on a regular basis and are explained below.

The Company determines the overall magnitude of interest sensitivity risk and then formulates policies and practices governing asset generation and pricing, funding sources and pricing, and off-balance sheet commitments. These decisions are based on management’s expectations regarding future interest rate movements, the states of the national, regional and, local economies, and other financial and business risk factors. The Company uses computer simulation modeling to measure and monitor the effect of various interest rate scenarios and business strategies on net interest income. This modeling reflects interest rate changes and the related impact on net interest income and net income over specified time horizons.

Earnings Simulation Analysis

Management uses simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates. The model calculates an earnings estimate based on current and projected balances and rates. This method is subject to the accuracy of the assumptions that underlie the process, but it provides a better analysis of the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates than other analyses, such as the static gap analysis discussed above.

Assumptions used in the model are derived from historical trends and management’s outlook and include loan and deposit growth rates and projected yields and rates. These assumptions may not materialize and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. The model also does not take into account any future actions of management to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes. Such assumptions are monitored by management and periodically adjusted as appropriate. All maturities, calls, and prepayments in the securities portfolio are assumed to be reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities prepayment assumptions are based on industry estimates of prepayment speeds for portfolios with similar coupon ranges and seasoning. Different interest rate scenarios and yield curves are used to measure the sensitivity of earnings to changing interest rates. Interest rates on different asset and liability accounts move differently when the prime rate changes and are reflected in the different rate scenarios.

The Company uses its simulation model to estimate earnings in rate environments where rates are instantaneously shocked up or down around a “most likely” rate scenario, based on implied forward rates. The analysis assesses the impact on net interest income over a 12 month time horizon after an immediate increase or “shock” in rates, of 100 basis pointsbps up to 300 basis points.bps. The shock down 200 or 300 basis pointsbps analysis is not as meaningful as interest rates across most of the yield curve are atnear historic lows and cannotare not likely to decrease another 200 or 300 basis points.bps. The model, under all scenarios, does not drop the index below zero.

The following table represents the interest rate sensitivity on net interest income for the Company across the rate paths modeled for balances at the period ended December 31, 20132016 and 2015 (dollars in thousands):

Asset sensitivity indicates that in a rising interest rate environment the Company's net interest income would increase and in a decreasing interest rate environment the Company's net interest income would decrease. Liability sensitivity indicates that in a rising interest rate environment the Company's net interest income would decrease and in a decreasing interest rate environment the Company's net interest income would increase.


52



During 2016, the Company became more asset sensitive in a rising interest rate environment scenario when compared to the year ended December 31, 2015 in part due to the composition of the balance sheet and in part due to the market characteristics of certain deposit products. The Company would expect net interest income to increase with an immediate increase or shock in market rates. In a decreasing interest rate environment scenario, the Company would expect a decline in net interest income as interest-earning assets re-price at lower rates and interest-bearing deposits remain at or near their floors. It should be noted that although net interest income simulation results are presented through the down 300 bps interest rate environments, the Company does not believe the down 300 basis point scenarios is plausible given the current level of interest rates.
Economic Value Simulation

Economic value simulation is used to calculate the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate environments. Economic values are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The net economic value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities. The change in net economic value over different rate environments is an indication of the longer-term earnings capability of the balance sheet. The same assumptions are used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation. The economic value simulation uses instantaneous rate shocks to the balance sheet.

During 2016, the Company has become more sensitive to market interest rate fluctuations when compared to December 31, 2015. The shock down 200 or 300 basis pointsbps analysis is not as meaningful since interest rates across most of the yield curve are atnear historic lows and cannotare not likely to decrease another 200 or 300 basis points.bps.  While management considers this scenario highly unlikely, the natural floor increases the Company’s sensitivity in rates down scenarios.


Liquidity

Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, money market investments, federal funds sold, securities available for sale, loans held for sale, and loans maturing or re-pricing within one year. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds when necessary through federal funds lines with several correspondent banks, a line of credit with the FHLB, the purchase of brokered certificates of deposit, and a corporate line of credit with a large correspondent bank. Management considers the Company’s overall liquidity to be sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and to meet its customers’ credit needs.

At December 31, 2013,2016, the cash and cash equivalents, restricted stock, and securities classified as available for sale comprised 18.6%14.1% of total assets, compared to 16.8%14.3% at December 31, 2012.2015. Asset liquidity is also provided by managing loan and securities maturities and cash flows.

Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds when necessary. The community bank segment maintains federal funds lines with several regional banks totaling $125.0$175.0 million as ofat both December 31, 2013.2016 and 2015. As of both December 31, 2013,2016 and 2015, there were $31.5 millionno borrowings outstanding on these federal funds lines. The Company had outstanding borrowings pursuant to securities sold under agreements to repurchase transactions

with a maturity of one day of $52.5$59.3 million as of December 31, 20132016 compared to $54.3$85.0 million as of December 31, 2012.2015. In addition, the Company has an unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank for up to $25.0 million. There were no borrowings outstanding under this line at December 31, 2016 or 2015. Lastly, the Company had a collateral dependent line of credit with the FHLB for up to $805.2 million.$2.4 billion and $1.5 billion as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. Based on the underlying collateralized loans, the Company has $635.2 millionhad $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion available as of December 31, 2013.2016 and 2015, respectively. There was approximately $320.0$709.4 million outstanding under this line at December 31, 20132016 compared to $494.0$504.9 million as of December 31, 2012.

2015.

The community bank segment may also borrow additional funds by purchasing certificates of deposit through a nationally recognized network of financial institutions. The Bank utilizes this funding source when rates are more favorable than other funding sources. As of both December 31, 2013,2016 and 2015, there were $13.7 million purchased andno borrowed funds included in certificates of deposit on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

As ofSheets.

At December 31, 2013,2016, the liquid assetscash, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, money market investments, federal funds sold, loans held for sale, and loans that mature within one year totaled $1.2$2.1 billion, or 30.3%27.5%, of total earning assets. As of December 31, 2013,2016, approximately $976.0 million,$1.9 billion, or 32.1%,30.0% of total loans, are scheduled to mature within one year based on contractual maturity, adjusted for expected prepayments.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The Company’s financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K below have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires the financial position and operating results to be measured principally in terms of historic dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Inflation affects the Company’s results of operations mainly through increased operating costs, but since nearly all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature, changes in interest rates affect the financial condition of the Company to a greater degree than changes in the rate of inflation. Although interest rates are greatly influenced by changes in the inflation rate, they do not necessarily change at the same rate or in the same magnitude as the inflation rate. The Company’s management reviews pricing of its products and services, in light of current and expected costs due to inflation, to mitigate the inflationary impact on financial performance.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

In reporting the results of December 31, 2013,2016, the Company has provided supplemental performance measures on a tax-equivalent, core, tangible, or operating basis. These measures are a supplement to GAAP used to prepare the Company's financial statements and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the Company's non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP measures of other companies.

Net interest income (FTE), which is used in computing net interest margin (FTE) and efficiency ratio (FTE), provides valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources.

Core net interest income (FTE), which is used in computing core net interest margin (FTE), provides valuable additional insight into the net interest margin by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources as well as the net accretion of acquisition-related fair value marks.

The Company believes tangible common equity is an operating or tangible basis. important indication of its ability to grow organically and through business combinations as well as its ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies. Tangible common equity is used in the calculation of certain profitability, capital, and per share ratios. These ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses.
Operating measures exclude acquisition costs unrelated to the Company’s normal operations. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors as they exclude non-operating adjustments resulting from acquisition activity and allow investors to see the combined economic results of the organization. Tangible common equity is used in the calculation of certain capital and per share ratios. The Company believes tangible common equity and the related ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses.

The allowance for loan losses,ALL ratio, adjusted for acquisition accounting (non-GAAP) ratio, includes an adjustment for the creditfair value mark on purchasedacquired performing loans. The purchasedacquired performing loans are reported net of the related creditfair value mark in loans, net of unearned income,deferred fees and costs, on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet;Sheets; therefore, the creditfair value mark is added back to the balance to

represent the total loan portfolio. The adjusted allowance for loan losses,ALL, including the creditfair value mark, represents the total reserve on the Company’s loan portfolio. The PCI loans, net of the respective fair value mark, are removed from the loans, net of deferred fees and costs, as these loans are not covered by the allowance established by the Company unless changes in expected cash flows indicate that one of the PCI loan pools is impaired, at which time an allowance for PCI loans will be established. GAAP requires the acquired allowance for loan lossesALL not be carried over in an acquisition or merger. The Company believes the presentation of the allowance for loan losses,ALL ratio, adjusted for acquisition accounting, ratio is useful to investors because the acquired loans were purchased at a market discount with no allowance for loan lossesALL carried over to the Company and the creditfair value mark on the purchased performing loans represents the allowance associated with those purchased loans. The Company believes that this measure is a better reflection of the reserves on the Company’s loan portfolio.

A company'scompany’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company'scompany’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that(a) (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;(b) (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and(c) (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company'scompany’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Union First Market Bankshares Corporation and subsidiaries’ maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013,2016, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 1992.

COSO criteria.

We also have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Union Bankshares Corporation as of December 31, 20132016 and 2012,2015, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changechanges in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the threetwo years in the period ended December 31, 20132016 and our report dated February 28, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

UNION FIRST MARKET BANKSHARES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013, 2012,2016, 2015, AND 2011

1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2014

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Effective April 25, 2014, the Company changed its name from “Union First Market Bankshares Corporation” to “Union Bankshares Corporation.” The name change was approved at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders held April 22, 2014. Effective February 16, 2015, the Company changed its subsidiary bank’s name from “Union First Market Bank” to “Union Bank & Trust.”

The accounting policies and practices of Union First Market Bankshares Corporation and subsidiaries conform to GAAP and follow general practices within the banking industry. Major policies and practices are described below.


Nature of Operations -Union First Market Bankshares Corporation is a financial holding company and a bank holding company headquartered Headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, the Company is the largest community banking organization headquartered in Virginia and committed tooperates in all major banking markets throughout the deliveryCommonwealth. The Company is the holding company for Union Bank & Trust, which provides banking, trust, and wealth management services and has a statewide presence of financial services through its community114 bank subsidiary Union First Market Bankbranches and three non-bank financial services affiliates:approximately 185 ATMs. Non-bank affiliates of the Company include: Union Mortgage Group, Inc., providingwhich provides a varietyfull line of mortgage products,products; Union Insurance Group, LLC, which provides various lines of insurance products; and Old Dominion Capital Management, Inc., which provides investment advisory services. Effective January 1, 2016, Union Investment Services, Inc. providing, which provided securities, brokerage, and investment advisory services, and Union Insurance Group, LLC, an insurance agency, which operates in a joint venturewas fully consolidated with Bankers Insurance, LLC, a large insurance agency owned by community banks across Virginia and managed by the Virginia Bankers Association.

Bank.


Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, which is a financial holding company and a bank holding company that owns all of the outstanding common stock of its banking subsidiary, Union First Market Bank & Trust and of Union Investment Services, Inc. The Company also owns a non-controlling interest in The Payments Company which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.Insurance Group, LLC, Union Mortgage Group, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Union First Market Bank. Union First Market Bank also has a non-controlling interest in Johnson Mortgage Company, LLC, which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting., and Old Dominion Capital Management, Inc. The Company’s Statutory TrustTrusts I and II, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, were formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable Trust Preferred Capital Notestrust preferred capital notes in connection with two of the Company’s acquisitions of Guaranty Financial Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Guaranty Bank, in May 2004 and Prosperity Bank & Trust Company in Aprilprior to 2006. ASC 860,Transfers and Servicing, precludes the Company from consolidating Statutory Trusts I and II. The subordinated debts payable to the trusts are reported as liabilities of the Company. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.


Variable Interest Entities - Current accounting guidance states that if a business enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of the activities of the variable interest entity should be included in the consolidated financial statements of the business enterprise. This interpretation explains how to identify variable interest entities and how an enterprise assesses its interest in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate the entity. It also requires existing unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risks among parties involved. Variable interest entities that effectively disperse risks will not be consolidated unless a single party holds an interest or combination of interests that effectively recombines risks that were previously dispersed. Management has evaluated the Company’s investment in variable interest entities. The Company’s primary exposure to variable interest entities are the trust preferred securities structures.

Currently, other than the impact described above from the deconsolidation of the trust preferred capital notes, this This accounting guidance has not had a material impact on the financial condition or the operating results of the Company.


Use of Estimates - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses,ALL, the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, other real estate owned, deferred tax assets and liabilities, other-than-temporary impairment of securities, and the fair value of financial instruments.


Business Combinations-Business combinations are accounted for underASC 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date measured at their fair values as of that date. To determine the fair values, the Company will continue to rely onutilizes third party valuations, such as appraisals, orand internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other valuation techniques. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company will identify the acquireracquiree and the closing date and apply applicable recognition principles and conditions. CostsIf they are necessary to implement its plan to exit an activity of an acquiree, costs that the Company expects, but is not obligated, to incur in the future to effect its plan to exit an activity of an acquiree or to terminate the employment of or relocate an acquiree’s employees are not liabilities at the acquisition date.date, nor are costs to terminate the employment or relocate an acquiree’s employees. The Company willdoes not recognize these costs as

part of applying the acquisition method. Instead, the Company will recognizerecognizes these costs as expenses in its post-combination financial statements in accordance with other applicable accounting guidance.

GAAP.

Acquisition-related costs are costs the Company incurs to effect a business combination. Those costs include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees. Some other examples of costs to the Company include systems conversions, integration planning consultants, and advertising costs. The Company will account for acquisition-related costs as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received, with one exception. The costs to issue debt or equity securities will be recognized in accordance with other applicable accounting guidance. These acquisition-related costs are included within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income classified within the noninterest expense caption.

On January 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of StellarOne, a bank holding company based in Charlottesville, Virginia, in an all stock transaction. Additional information on this acquisition is disclosed in Note 20, “Subsequent Events.”

Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company defines cash and cash equivalents as cash, cash due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, money market investments, other interest-bearing deposits, and federal funds sold.

Investment Securities- Securities classified as available for sale are those debt and equity securities that management intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, including securities used as part of the Company’s asset/liability strategy, and that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, or other similar factors. Securities available for sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses, net of deferred taxes, included in accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity.

Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturityheld to maturity and reported at amortized cost. Transfers of debt securities into the held to maturity category from the available for sale category are made at fair value at the date of transfer. The Company has no securitiesunrealized holding gain or loss at the date of transfer is retained in this category.

other comprehensive income and in the carrying value of the held to maturity securities. Such amounts are amortized over the remaining life of the security.

Securities classified as held for trading are those debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. The Company has no securities in this category.

Purchased premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI losses, an impairment is other-than-temporary if any of the following conditions exist: the entity intends to sell the security; it is more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or, the entity does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell). If a credit loss exists, but an entity does not intend to sell the impaired debt security and is not more likely than not to be required to sell before recovery, the impairment is other-than-temporary and should be separated into a credit portion to be recognized in earnings and the remaining amount relating to all other factors recognized as other comprehensive loss. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

Due to restrictions placed upon the Company’s common stock investmentinvestments in the Federal Reserve Bank and FHLB, these securities have been classified as restricted equity securities and carried at cost. These restricted securities are not subject to the investment security classifications. The FHLB requiresrequired the Bank to maintain stock in an amount equal to 4.5%4.25% of outstanding borrowings and a specific percentage of the member’s total assets.assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond requires the Company to maintain stock with a par value equal to 6% of its outstanding capital.

Loans Held for Sale - LoansFor loans originated prior to 2015, loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are sold, servicing released, and carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, which is determined in the aggregate based on sales commitments to permanent investors or on current market rates for loans of similar quality and type. During 2015, the Company transitioned from the lower of cost or estimated fair value method and elected the fair value option for loans held for sale. For further information regarding the fair value method and assumptions, refer to Note 13 “Fair Value Measurements.” In addition, the Company requires a firm purchase commitment from a permanent investor before a loan can be closed, thus limiting interest rate risk. As a result, loans held for sale are stated at fair value. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income.

The change in fair value of loans held for sale is recorded as a component of “Mortgage banking income, net” within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Loans - The Company originates commercial and consumer loans to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by commercial and residential real estate loans (including acquisition and development loans and residential construction loans) throughout its market area. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in those markets.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses,ALL, and any deferred fees orand costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

The

Beginning January 1, 2016, the Company has twoenhanced the loan portfolio level segmentssegmentation to better align with how the Company manages credit risk and fourteento better align with industry practice. Below is a summary of the new loan class levels for reporting purposes. The two loan portfolio level segments are commercialsegmentation:
Construction and consumer.

Within the commercial loan portfolio segment there are seven loan classes for reporting purposes: commercial construction, commercial real estateLand Development owner occupied, commercial real estate – non owner occupied, raw land and lots, single family investment real estate, commercial and industrial, and other commercial.

Commercial construction loans are generally made to commercial and residential builders for specific construction projects. The successful repayment of these types of loans is generally dependent upon (a) a pre-planned commitment for permanent financing from the Company, or another lender, or (b) from the sale of the constructed property. These loans carry more risk than both types of commercial real estate term loans due to the dynamics of construction projects, changes in interest rates, the long-term financing market, and state and local government regulations. As in commercial real estate term lending, the Company manages risk by using specific underwriting policies and procedures for these types of loans and by avoiding excessive concentrations to any one business or industry.

Commercial

Also, included in this category are loans generally made to residential home builders to support their lot and home inventory needs. Repayment relies upon the successful performance of the underlying residential real estate project. This type of lending carries a higher level of risk as compared to other commercial lending. This class of lending reflects risks related to residential real estate market conditions, a functioning first and secondary market in which to sell residential properties, and the borrower’s ability to manage inventory and run projects. The Company manages this risk by lending to experienced builders and developers by using specific underwriting policies and procedures for these types of loans and by avoiding excessive concentrations with any particular customer or geographic region.
Commercial Real Estate owner occupied loans areOwner Occupied - term loans made to support owner occupied real estate properties that rely upon the successful operation of the business occupying the property for repayment. General market conditions and economic activity may affect these types of loans. In addition to using specific underwriting policies and procedures for these types of loans, the Company manages risk by avoiding concentrations to any one business or industry.

Commercial real estateReal Estatenon-owner occupied loans areNon-Owner Occupied - term loans typically made to borrowers to support income producing properties that rely upon the successful operation of the property for repayment. General market conditions and economic activity may impact the performance of these types of loans. In addition to using specific underwriting policies and procedures for these types of loans, the Company manages risk by diversifying the lending to various lines of businesses, such as retail, office, multi-family, office warehouse, and hotel as well as avoiding concentrations to any one business or industry.

Raw land and lot loans are

Residential 1-4 Family loans generally made to both commercial and residential home builders to support their land and lot inventory needs. Repayment relies uponborrowers. Residential 1-4 family loan portfolios carry risks associated with the successful performancecreditworthiness of the underlying residential real estate project. This type of lending carries a higher level of risk as compared to other commercial lending. This class of lending manages risks related to residential real estate market conditions, a functioning firstborrower or the tenant and secondary marketchanges in which to sell residential properties, and the borrower’s ability to manage inventory and run projects.loan-to-value ratios. The Company manages this risk by lending to experienced builders and developers, by using specific underwritingthese risks through policies and procedures such as limiting loan-to-value ratios at origination, experienced underwriting, requiring standards for these types of loans,appraisers, and by avoiding concentrations with any particular customer or geographic region.

Single family investment real estate loans are termnot making subprime loans.

Multifamily Real Estate loans made to real estate investors to support permanent financing for single familymultifamily residential income producing properties that rely on the successful operation of the property for repayment. This management mainly involves property maintenance and collection of rents due from tenants. This type of lending carries a lower level of risk as compared to other commercial lending. In addition, underwriting requirements for multifamily properties are stricter than for other non-owner-occupied property types. The Company manages this risk by avoiding concentrations with any particular customer or geographic region.

Commercial and industrial& Industrial loans generally made to support our borrowersthe Company’s borrowers’ need for equipment/vehicle purchases and other short-term or seasonal cash flow needs. Repayment relies upon the successful operation of the business. This type of lending carries a lower level of commercial credit risk as compared to other commercial lending within this segment of lending. The Company manages this risk by using general underwriting policies and procedures for these types of loans and by avoiding concentrations to any one business or industry.

Other commercial loans generally support small business lines

HELOC – the consumer HELOC portfolio carries risks associated with the creditworthiness of creditthe borrower and agricultural lending neither of which are a material source of business for the Company.

The consumer loan portfolio segment is comprised of seven classes; mortgage, consumer construction, indirect auto, indirect marine, HELOCs, credit card, and other consumer. These are generally small loans spread across many borrowers, supported by computer-based loan approval systems and business line policies and procedures that aidchanges in managing risk. The Company’s consumer portfolio consists principally of loans secured by real estate, followed by indirect auto lending and indirect marine lending.

loan-to-value ratios. The Company manages the uniquethese risks related toconsumer construction to acceptable levels through certain policies and procedures, such as limiting loan-to-value ratios at loan origination, using experienced underwriting, requiring standards for appraisers, and not making subprime loans under any circumstances.

Theloans.

Auto – the consumer indirect auto lending portfolio generally carries certain risks associated with the values of the collateral that management must mitigate. The Company focuses its indirect auto lending on one to two year old used vehicles where substantial depreciation has already occurred thereby minimizing the risk of significant loss of collateral values in the future. This type of lending places reliance on computer-based loan approval systems to supplement other underwriting standards.

Consumer and all other - portfolios carry risks associated with the creditworthiness of the borrower and changes in the economic environment. Theindirect marine lending is Company manages these risks through policies and procedures such as experienced underwriting, maximum debt to borrowers that are well qualified with ample capacity to repayincome ratios, and typically lends against large marine vessels (i.e., yachts). Risksminimum borrower credit scores. Also included in this classcategory are loans that generally support small business lines of credit and agricultural lending, neither of which are generally related toa material source of business for the borrower’s ability to guard against the effects of economic downturns or sustained levels of unemployment. This type of lending places reliance on computer-based loan approval systems to supplement other underwriting standards.

Nonaccruals, Past Dues, and Charge-offs

The policy for placing commercial loans on nonaccrual status is generally when the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection but, in any event, nogenerally, not later than 180 days past due. Consumer loans are typically charged-off when management judges the loan to be uncollectible or the borrower files for bankruptcy but generally no later than 120 days past due for non-real estate secured loans and 180 days for real estate secured loans. These loans are generally not placed on nonaccrual status prior to charge off. Commercial loans are typically written down to net realizable value when it is determined that the Company will be unable to collect the principal amount in full and the amount is a confirmed loss, in any event nobut generally not later than 180 days past due. All classes of loans are considered past due or delinquent when a contractual payment has not been satisfied. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal and interest is considered doubtful and in accordance with regulatory requirements.

The process for charge-offs of impaired collateral dependent loans is discussed in detail within the “Allowance for Loan Losses” section of this Note.

For both the commercial and consumer loan segments, all interest accrued but not collected for loans placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off is reversed against interest income and accrual of interest income is terminated. Payments and interest on these loans are accounted for using the cost-recovery method by applying all payments received as a reduction to the outstanding principal balance until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. The determination of future payments being reasonably assured varies depending on the circumstances present with the loan; however, the timely payment of contractual amounts owed for six consecutive months is a primary indicator. In addition, the return of a loan to accrual status is considered and approved by the Company’s Special Assets Loan Committee.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses charged to operations is an amount sufficient to bring the allowance for loan lossesALL to an estimated balance that management considers adequate to absorb potentialprobable losses inherent in the portfolio. Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Recoveriesunlikely, while recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance.ALL. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowanceALL is based on an evaluation of the composition of the loan portfolio, the value and adequacy of collateral, current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, and other risk factors. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, particularly those affecting real estate values. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically reviewManagement believes that the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

ALL is adequate.

The Company performs regular credit reviews of the loan portfolio to review the credit quality and adherence to its underwriting standards. The credit reviews consist of reviews by its Internal Audit group and reviews performed by an independent third party.Loan Review Group. Upon origination, each commercial loan is assigned a risk rating ranging from one to nine, with loans closer to one having less risk, and thisrisk. This risk rating scale is the Company’s primary credit quality indicator. Consumer loans are generally not risk rated; the primary credit quality indicator for this portfolioloan segment is delinquency status. The Company has various committees that review and ensure that the allowance for loan lossesALL methodology is in accordance with GAAP and loss factors used appropriately reflect the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio.

- 65 -

The Company’s ALL consists of specific, general, and unallocatedqualitative components.

Specific Reserve Component -
The specific reserve component relates to impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Upon being identified as impaired, for loans not considered to be collateral dependent, an allowanceALL is established when the discounted cash flows of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan. Nonaccrual loans under $100,000 and other impaired loans under $500,000 are aggregated based on similar risk characteristics. The level of credit impairment within the pool(s) is determined based on historical loss factors for loans with similar risk characteristics, taking into consideration environmental factors specifically related to the underlying pool. The impairment of collateral dependent loans is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, (based on independent appraisals), less selling costs, compared to the carrying value of the loan. If the Company determines that the value of an impaired collateral dependent loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, it either recognizes an impairment reserve as a specific component to be provided for in the allowance for loan lossesALL or charges off the deficiency if it is determined that such amount represents a confirmed loss. Typically, a loss is confirmed when the Company is moving towards foreclosure (or final disposition) of the underlying collateral, the collateral deficiency has not improved for two consecutive quarters, or when there is a payment default of 180 days, whichever occurs first.


The Company obtains independent appraisals from a pre-approved list of independent, third party appraisal firms located in the market in which the collateral is located. The Company’s approved appraiser list is continuously maintained to ensure the list only includes such appraisers that have the experience, reputation, character, and knowledge of the respective real estate market. At a minimum, it is ascertained that the appraiser is currently licensed in the state in which the property is located, experienced in the appraisal of properties similar to the property being appraised, has knowledge of current real estate market conditions and financing trends, and is reputable. The Company’s internal Real Estate Valuation Group, which reports to the Risk and Compliance Group, performs either a technical or administrative review of all appraisals obtained. A technical review will ensure the overall quality of the appraisal, while an administrative review ensures that all of the required components of an appraisal are present. Generally, independent appraisals are updated every 12 to 24 months, or as necessary. The Company’s impairment analysis documents the date of the appraisal used in the analysis, whether the officer preparing the report deems it current, and, if not, allows for internal valuation adjustments with justification. Adjustments to appraisals generally include discounts for continued market deterioration subsequent to the appraisal date. Any adjustments from the appraised value to carrying value are documented in the impairment analysis, which is reviewed and approved by senior credit administration officers and the Special Assets Loan Committee. External appraisals are the primary source to value collateral dependent loans; however, the Company may also utilize values obtained through broker price opinions or other valuationsvaluation sources. These alternative sources of value are used only if deemed to be more representative of value based on updated information regarding collateral resolution. Impairment analyses are updated, reviewed, and approved on a quarterly basis at or near the end of each reporting period.

General Reserve Component-
The general reserve component covers non-impaired loans and is quantitatively derived from an estimate of credit losses adjusted for various environmental factors applicable to both commercial and consumer loan segments. The estimate of credit losses is a function of the product of net charge-off historical loss experience to the average loan balance of the loan portfolio averaged during the preceding twelve quarters, asa period that management has determined this to be adequately reflectreflective of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Effective December 31, 2016, the Company implemented a rolling 20-quarter look back period, which is re-evaluated on a periodic basis to ensure reasonableness of period being utilized. Previously, the Company had utilized a 12-quarter look back period. The change to the 20-quarter look back period is due to the protracted recovery in the economy and management's conclusion that a 20-quarter period better reflects a full economic cycle. This change did not have a material impact on the Company's ALL.
The qualitative environmental factors consist of national,portfolio, national/international, and local and portfolio characteristics and are applied to both the commercial and consumer loan segments.
The following table shows the types of environmental factors management considers:

Unallocated Component- This component may be used to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio. Together, the specific, general, and any unallocated allowance for loan loss represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. Though provisions for loan losses may be based on specific loans, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for any loan management deems necessary to charge-off. At December 31, 2013, there were no material amounts considered unallocated as part of the allowance for loan losses.

Impaired Loans

Loans-A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. A loan that is classified substandard or worse is considered impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The impairment loan policy is the same for each of the seven classesall segments within the commercial portfolioloan segment.

For the consumer loan portfolio segment, large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. This evaluation subjects each of the Company’s homogenous pools to a historical loss factor derived from net charge-offs experienced over the preceding twelvetwenty quarters.

The Company applies payments received on impaired loans to principal and interest based on the contractual terms until they are placed on nonaccrual status at which time allstatus. All payments received are then applied to reduce the principal balance and recognition of interest income is terminated as previously discussed.

Acquired Loans – Acquired loans are recorded at their fair value at acquisition date without carryover of the acquiree’s previously established ALL, as credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value. The fair value of the loans is determined using market participant assumptions in estimating the amount and timing of both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and then applying a market-based discount rate to those cash flows. During evaluation upon acquisition, acquired loans are also classified as either acquired impaired (or PCI) or acquired performing.
Acquired impaired loans reflect credit quality deterioration since origination, as it is probable at acquisition that the Company will not be able to collect all contractually required payments. These PCI loans are accounted for under ASC 310-30, Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The PCI loans are segregated into pools based on loan type and credit risk. Loan type is determined based on collateral type, purpose, and lien position. Credit risk characteristics include risk rating groups, nonaccrual status, and past due status. For valuation purposes, these pools are further disaggregated by maturity, pricing characteristics, and re-payment structure. PCI loans are written down at acquisition to fair value using an estimate of cash flows deemed to be collectible. Accordingly, such loans are no longer classified as nonaccrual even though they may be contractually past due because the Company expects to fully collect the new carrying values of such loans, which is the new cost basis arising from purchase accounting.
A loan will be removed from a pool (at its carrying value) only if the loan is sold, foreclosed, or assets are received in full satisfaction of the loan. For purposes of removing the loan from the pool, the carrying value is deemed to equal the amount of principal cash flows received in lieu of the loan balance. This treatment ensures that the percentage yield calculation used to recognize accretable yield on the pool of loans is not affected.
Periodically, management performs a recast of PCI loans based on updated future expected cash flows, which are updated through reassessment of default rates, loss severity, and prepayment speed assumptions. The excess of the cash flows expected


72



to be collected over a pool’s carrying value is considered to be the accretable yield and is recognized as interest income over the estimated life of the loan or pool using the effective yield method. The accretable yield may change due to changes in the timing and amounts of expected cash flows; these changes are disclosed in Note 4 “Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses.”
The excess of the undiscounted contractual balances due over the cash flows expected to be collected is considered to be the nonaccretable difference, which represents the estimate of credit losses expected to occur and was considered in determining the fair value of loan at the acquisition date. Any subsequent increases in expected cash flows over those expected at the acquisition date in excess of fair value are adjusted through an increase in the accretable yield on a prospective basis; any decreases in expected cash flows attributable to credit deterioration are recognized by recording a provision for loan losses.
The Company’s policy is to remove an individual loan from a pool based on comparing the amount received from its resolution with its contractual amount. Any difference between these amounts is absorbed by the nonaccretable difference for the entire pool. This removal method assumes that the amount received from resolution approximates pool performance expectations. The remaining accretable yield balance is unaffected and any material change in remaining effective yield caused by this removal method is addressed by the quarterly cash flow evaluation process for each pool. For loans that are resolved by payment in full, there is no release of the nonaccretable difference for the pool because there is no difference between the amount received at resolution and the contractual amount of the loan.
The PCI loans are and will continue to be subject to the Company’s internal and external credit review and monitoring. If further credit deterioration is experienced, such deterioration will be measured and the provision for loan losses will be increased.
At acquisition, loans with active revolving privileges are excluded from the PCI accounting; however, PCI loans do occasionally draw additional funds from the Company. These advances will increase the recorded investment of the PCI loan and will be accounted for with the other PCI loans.
Acquired performing loans are accounted for under ASC 310-20, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. The difference between the fair value and unpaid principal balance of the loan at acquisition date (premium or discount) is amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the loans. If the acquired performing loan has revolving privileges, it is accounted for using the straight line method; otherwise, the effective interest method is used.

Troubled Debt Restructurings - In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, management may grant a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a TDR. Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status. These modified terms may include rate reductions, principal forgiveness, extension of terms that are considered to be below market, conversion to interest only, and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. In cases where borrowers are granted new terms that provide for a reduction of either interest or principal, management measures any impairment on the restructuring as noted above for impaired loans. Restructured loans for which there was no rate concession, and therefore made at a market rate of interest, may subsequently be eligible to be removed from TDR status in periods subsequent to the restructuring depending on the performance of the loan. The Company reviews previously restructured loans quarterly in order to determine whether any have performed, subsequent to the restructure, at a level that would allow for them to be removed from TDR status. The Company generally would consider a change in this classification if the borrower is no longer experiencing financial difficulties, the loan has performed under the restructured terms for a consecutive twelve month period, and is no longer considered to be impaired. All changes to TDR designations must be approved by the Bank's Special Asset Loan Committee.

Loans removed from TDR status are collectively evaluated for impairment andimpairment; due to the significant improvement in the expected future cash flows, these loans are grouped based on their primary risk characteristics, typically usingwhich is included in the Company’s internal risk rating system as its primary credit quality indicator, and impairmentCompany's general reserve. Impairment is measured based on historical loss experience taking into consideration environmental factors.

Bank The significant majority of these loans have been subject to new credit decisions due to the improvement in the expected future cash flows, the financial condition of the borrower, and other factors considered during the re-underwriting. The TDR activity during the year did not have a material impact on the Company’s ALL, financial condition, or results of operations.


Premises and Equipment - Land is carried at cost. Bank premisesPremises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method based on the type of asset involved. The Company’s policy is to capitalize additions and improvements and to depreciate the cost thereof over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 4050 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the related lease or the estimated life of the related asset. Maintenance repairs, and renewalsrepairs are expensed as they are incurred.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets - The Company’s intangibleCompany has an aggregate goodwill balance of $298.2 million associated with previous merger transactions. Goodwill is associated with the both the commercial banking and mortgage segments.

Goodwill resulting from business combinations prior to January 1, 2009 represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets are comprised of goodwillbusinesses acquired. Goodwill resulting from business combinations after January 1, 2009 is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree over the fair value of the net assets acquired and other intangible assets that were acquired in business combinations. ASC 350,Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, prescribes accounting for goodwillliabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.

lives, which range from 4 to 14 years, to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life included on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Long-lived assets, including purchased intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, would no longer depreciated. Management concluded that no circumstances indicating an impairment of these assets existed as of the balance sheet date.

The Company performed its annual impairment testing in the second quarter of 2013on April 30, 2016 and determined that there was no impairment to its goodwill or intangible assets. Subsequently, the Company determinedManagement performed a review through December 31, 2016 and concluded that an additional evaluation was necessary at year-end due to potential indicators based on the net losses recorded at the mortgage company during the last two quartersno factors indicating impairment existed as of the year. Based on this additional testing, the Company still has recorded no impairment charges to date for goodwill or intangible assets.

a separate line item on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Transfers of Financial Assets - Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company – put presumptively beyond reach of the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity or the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets.

Bank Owned Life Insurance -The Company has purchased life insurance on certain key employees and directors. These policies are recorded at their cash surrender value ($86.8 million and $54.8 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively) and are included in “Other assets”a separate line item on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.Sheets. Income generated from policespolicies is recorded as noninterest income.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank also had liabilities for post-retirement benefits payable to other partial beneficiaries under some of these life insurance policies of $5.9 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The Bank is exposed to credit risk to the extent an insurance company is unable to fulfill its financial obligations under a policy.

Derivatives - Derivatives are recognized as assets and liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance SheetSheets and measured at fair value. The Company’s derivatives are interest rate swap agreements. For asset/liability management purposes,agreements and interest rate lock commitments. The Company’s hedging policies permit the use of various derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk or to hedge specified assets and liabilities. All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. The Company may be required to recognize certain contracts and commitments as derivatives when the characteristics of those contracts and commitments meet the definition of a derivative. To qualify for hedge accounting, derivatives must be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and must be designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. The Company considers a hedge to be highly effective if the change in fair value of the derivative hedging instrument is within 80% to 125% of the opposite change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk. If derivative instruments are designated as hedges of fair values, and such hedges are highly effective, both the change in the fair value of the hedge and the hedged item are included in current earnings. Fair value adjustments related to cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income and are reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is reflected in earnings. Ineffective portions of hedges are reflected in earnings as they occur. Actual cash receipts and/or payments and related accruals on derivatives related to hedges are recorded as adjustments to the interest income or interest expense associated with the hedged item. During the life of the hedge, the Company uses interest rate swap agreementsformally assesses whether derivatives designated as hedging instruments continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of hedged items. If it is determined that a hedge various exposures orhas ceased to modifybe highly effective, the Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively. At such time, previous adjustments to the carrying value of the hedged item are reversed into current earnings and the derivative instrument is reclassified to a trading position recorded at fair value.

The Company enters into commitments to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate characteristicson the loan is determined prior to funding (rate lock commitments). Rate lock commitments on mortgage loans that are intended to be sold are considered to be derivatives. The period of various balance sheet accounts. For those derivatives designatedtime between issuance of a loan commitment, closing, and sale of the loan generally ranges from 30 to 120 days. The Company protects itself from changes in interest rates through the use of best efforts forward delivery commitments, whereby the Company commits to sell a loan at the time the borrower commits to an interest rate with the intent that the buyer has assumed interest rate risk on the loan. As a result, the Company is not exposed to material losses and will not realize significant gains related to its rate lock commitments due to changes in interest rates. The correlation between the rate lock commitments and the best efforts contracts is high due to their similarity.

The market value of rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts is not readily ascertainable with precision because rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. The Company determines the fair value of rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts by measuring the change in the value of the underlying asset while taking into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close. The fair value of the rate lock commitments is reported as a cash flow hedge,component of “Other Assets” in the effective portionCompany’s Consolidated Balance Sheets; the fair value of the derivative’s unrealized gain or lossCompany’s best efforts forward delivery commitments is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income.“Other Liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Any impact to income is recorded in current period earnings as a component of “Mortgage banking income, net” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Affordable Housing Entities - The Company invests in private investment funds that make equity investments in multifamily affordable housing properties that provide affordable housing tax credits for these investments. The activities of these entities are financed with a combination of invested equity capital and debt. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company recognized amortization of $370,000 and $529,000, respectively, and tax credits of $882,000 and $854,000, respectively, associated with these investments within “Income tax expense” on the Company’s loan swaps, offsetting fair valuesConsolidated Statements of Income. The carrying value of the Company’s investments in these qualified affordable housing projects were $9.9 million for both the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company's recorded liability totaled $7.1 million and $4.9 million, respectively, for the related unfunded commitments, which are recorded in other assets and other liabilities with no net effect on other operating income.

expected to be paid from 2017 to 2019.


Loan Fees -Fees collected and certain costs incurred related to loan originations are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest income over the life of the related loans. Deferred fees and costs are recorded as an adjustment to loans outstanding using a method that approximates a constant yield.


Stock Compensation Plan - The Company has adopted ASC 718,Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the costs resulting from all stock-based payments to employees be recognized in the financial statements. For stock options, compensation cost is estimated at the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option valuation model for determining fair value of stock options. No options were granted in 2013.2016 or 2015. The market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant is used for nonvested stock awards.

The Black–Scholes model employs the following assumptions:

Dividend yield - calculated as the ratiofair value of historical dividends paid per share of commonperformance stock to the stock priceunits (“PSUs”) granted in 2016 and 2015 is determined and fixed on the grant date of grant;
Expected life (term of the option) - based on the average of the contractual life and vesting schedule for the respective option;
Expected volatility - based on the monthly historical volatility of the Company’s stock price, overadjusted for the expected lifeexclusion of dividend equivalents. The Monte Carlo simulation valuation model was used to determine the options;grant date fair value of PSUs granted in 2016 and 2015.
Risk-free interest rate - based upon the Treasury bill yield curve, for periods within the contractual life of the option, in effect at the time of grant.
- 68 -

ASC 718 requires the Company to estimate forfeitures when recognizing compensation expense and that this estimate of forfeitures be adjusted over the requisite service period or vesting schedule based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures are recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment, which is recognized in the period of change, and also will affect the amount of estimated unamortized compensation expense to be recognized in future periods.


For more information and tables refer to Note 13,14 “Employee Benefits.Benefits and Stock Based Compensation.


Income Taxes - Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the asset and liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. Deferred taxes are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.


When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits inon the accompanyingCompany's Consolidated Balance SheetSheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.


Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes inon the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company did not record any material interest or penalties for the periods ending December 31, 2013, 2012,2016, 2015, or 20112014 related to tax positions taken. As of December 31, 20132016 and 20122015, there were no accruals for uncertain tax positions. The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries file a consolidated income tax return. Each entity provides for income taxes based on its contribution to income or loss of the consolidated group. The Internal Revenue Service has examined the Company’s 2010 and 2009 tax returns.


Advertising Costs-The Company follows a policy of charging the cost of advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising costs are disclosed in Note 14, “Other Operating Expenses.”

a separate line item on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Earnings Per Common Share – Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Net income available to common stockholders deducts from net income the dividends and discount accretion on preferred stock. Diluted earnings per common share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and nonvestedrestricted stock and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Comprehensive Income (Loss) - Comprehensive income (loss) represents all changes in equity that result from recognized transactions and other economic events of the period. Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenues, expenses, gains, and losses under GAAP that are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income, such as unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in debt and equity securities and interest rate swaps.

Off Balance Sheet Credit Related Financial Instruments- In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Rate Lock Commitments For more information and tables refer Note 9 “Commitments and Contingencies.”

Fair Value - The Company enters into commitmentsfollows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to originate mortgage loans wherebyrecord fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. This codification clarifies that fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (rate lock commitments). Rate lock commitments on mortgage loansamount that are intended towould be sold are considered to be derivatives. The period of time between issuance of a loan commitment, closing, and sale of the loan generally ranges from 30 to 120 days. The Company protects itself from changes in interest rates through the use of best efforts forward delivery commitments, whereby the Company commitsreceived to sell an asset or paid to transfer a loan atliability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants.

ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the timeinputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the borrower commits to an interest rate with the intent that the buyer has assumed interest rate risk on the loan. As a result, the Company is not exposed to material losses and will not realize significant gains related to its rate lock commitments due to changes in interest rates.Company’s market assumptions. The correlation between the rate lock commitments and the best efforts contracts is high due to their similarity.

- 69 -

The market valuethree levels of rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts is not readily ascertainable with precision because rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. The Company determines the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 based on these two types of rate lock commitmentsinputs are as follows: Level 1 valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and best efforts contractsliabilities; Level 2 valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by measuring the changeobservable data in the value ofmarkets; and Level 3 valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the underlying asset while taking into considerationmarket. These unobservable inputs reflect the probabilityCompany’s assumptions about what market participants would use and information that is reasonably available under the rate lock commitments will close. Because of the high correlation between rate lock commitmentscircumstances without undue cost and best efforts contracts, no material gain or loss occurseffort.

Asset Prepayment Rates - Thevaluation techniques used by the Company purchases amortizing loan poolsto measure certain financial assets and investment securities in which the underlying assets are residential mortgage loans subject to prepayments. The actual principal reduction on these assets varies from the expected contractual principal reduction due to principal prepayments resulting from the borrowers’ election to refinance the underlying mortgage based on market and other conditions. The purchase premiums and discounts associated with these assets are amortized or accreted to interest income over the estimated life of the related assets. The estimated life is calculated by projecting future prepayments and the resulting principal cash flows until maturity. Prepayment rate projections utilize actual prepayment speed experience and available market information on similar instruments. The prepayment rates form the basis for income recognition of premiums and discounts on the related assets. Changes in prepayment estimates may cause the earnings recognized on these assets to vary over the term that the assets are held, creating volatilityliabilities recorded at fair value in the net interest margin. Prepayment rate assumptions are monitored monthly and updated periodicallyfinancial statements refer to reflect actual activity and the most recent market projections.

Concentrations of Credit Risk - Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located in portions of Central, Southwest, and Tidewater Virginia. Securities available for sale, loans, and loansfinancial instruments with off balance sheet risk also represent concentrations of credit risk and are discussed in Note 2 “Securities” and3 “Securities,” Note 34 “Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses,” and Note 9 “Commitments and Contingencies,” respectively.

2. ACQUISITIONS
StellarOne
On January 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of StellarOne, a bank holding company based in Charlottesville, Virginia, in an all-stock transaction.

The contingent consideration is carried at fair value and is reported as a component of “Other Liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair value of this liability will be assessed at each reporting period. In connection with the transaction, the Company recorded $4.7 million in goodwill and $4.5 million of amortizable assets, which primarily relate to the value of customer relationships. The Company is amortizing these intangibles assets over the period of expected benefit, which ranges from 5 to 10 years using a straight-line method. The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The Company did not incur any material expenses related to the acquisition of ODCM.

As of the investment portfolio is to generate incomeDecember 31, 2016, there were $83.2 million, or 30 issues, of individual available for sale securities that had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months. Additionally, these securities had an unrealized loss of $1.8 million and meet liquidity needsconsisted of the Company through readily saleable financial instruments. The portfolio includes fixed rate bonds, whose prices move inversely with rates. At the end of any accounting period, the investment portfolio has unrealized gainsmunicipal obligations, mortgage-backed securities, and losses. The Company monitors the portfolio, which is subject to liquidity needs, market rate changes, and credit risk changes, to see if adjustments are needed. The primary cause of temporary impairments was the increase in spreads over comparable Treasurycorporate bonds. As of December 31, 2013,2015, there were $34.9$46.2 million, or 2320 issues, of individual securities that had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months. Additionally, these securities had an unrealized loss of $1.4 million and consisted of municipal obligations, mortgage-backed securities, corporate bonds, and other securities. As ofThe Company has determined that these securities are temporarily impaired at December 31, 2012, there were $2.2 million, or 2 issues,2016 and 2015 for the reasons set out below:
Mortgage-backed securities. This category’s unrealized losses are primarily the result of individualinterest rate fluctuations. Because the
decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, the Company does not intend to sell the
investments, and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized
cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
Also, the majority of the Company’s mortgage-backed securities that hadare agency-backed securities, which have a government
guarantee.

Obligations of state and political subdivisions. This category’s unrealized losses are primarily the result of interest rate
fluctuations and also a certain few ratings downgrades brought about by the impact of the economic downturn on states and political subdivisions. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less
than the cost basis of each investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell any of the investments and the accounting
standard of “more likely than not” has not been met for the Company to be required to sell any of the investments before
recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
Corporate bonds. The Company’s unrealized losses in corporate debt securities are related to both interest rate fluctuations and
ratings downgrades for a continuous loss position for morelimited number of securities. The majority of the securities remain investment grade and the
Company’s analysis did not indicate the existence of a credit loss. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the
issuer to settle the securities at a price less than 12 months. Additionally, the cost basis of each investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell
any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider

Restricted Stock, at cost
Due to restrictions placed upon the Bank’s common stock investment in the Federal Reserve Bank and the FHLB, these securities have been classified as restricted equity securities and carried at cost. These restricted securities are not subject to the investment security classifications and are included as a separate line item on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Restricted equity securities consist of Federal Reserve Bank stock in the amount of $23.8 million for both periods December 31, 2016 and 2015 and FHLB stock in the amount of $37.0 million and $28.0 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
During each quarter and at year end the Company conducts an assessment of the securities portfolio for OTTI consideration. The assessment considers factors such as external credit ratings, delinquency coverage ratios, market price, management’s judgment, expectations of future performance, and relevant industry research and analysis. An impairment is other-than-temporary if any of the following conditions exist: the entity intends to sell the security; it is more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or the entity does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell). If a credit loss exists, but an entity does not intend to sell the impaired debt security and is not more likely than not to be required to sell before recovery, the impairment is other-than-temporary and should be separated into a credit portion to be recognized in earnings and the remaining amount relating to all other factors recognized as other comprehensive loss. Based on the assessment forassessments during the year ended December 31, 2013,2016, and in accordance with the guidance, no OTTI was recognized.

The following table shows the allowance for loan loss activity, balances for allowance for credit losses,ALL, and loansloan balances based on impairment methodology by portfolio segment for the year ended and as of December 31, 2013.2016. The table below includes the provision for loan losses. As discussed in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Company enhanced its loan segmentation for purposes of the allowance calculation as well as its disclosures. The impact of this enhancement is reflected in the provision amounts in the table below. In addition, a $425,000 provision was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2016 for unfunded loan commitments for which the reserves are recorded as a component of “Other Liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories (dollars in thousands):

The Company uses thea risk rating system and past due status and trends as the primary credit quality indicatorindicators for the consumer loan portfolio segment while acategories. The risk rating system is utilized for commercial loans. Commercial loans are graded on a scale of 10 through 9.9 is used to determine risk level as used in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses; on those loans without a risk rating, the Company uses past due status to determine risk level. The risk levels, as described below, do not necessarily follow the regulatory definitions of risk levels with the same name. A general description of the characteristics of the risk gradeslevels follows:

·Risk rated 1 loans have little or no risk and are generally secured by cash or cash equivalents;
·Risk rated 2 loans have minimal risk to well qualified borrowers and no significant questions as to safety;
·Risk rated 3 loans are satisfactory loans with strong borrowers and secondary sources of repayment;
·Risk rated 4 loans are satisfactory loans with borrowers not as strong as risk rated 3 loans and may exhibit a greater degree of financial risk based on the type of business supporting the loan;
·Risk rated 5 loans are watch loans that warrant more than the normal level of supervision and have the possibility of an event occurring that may weaken the borrower’s ability to repay;
·Risk rated 6 loans have increasing potential weaknesses beyond those at which the loan originally was granted and if not addressed could lead to inadequately protecting the Company’s credit position;
·Risk rated 7 loans are substandard loans and are inadequately protected by the current sound worth or paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged; these have well defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt with the distinct possibility the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected;
·Risk rated 8 loans are doubtful of collection and the possibility of loss is high but pending specific borrower plans for recovery, its classification as a loss is deferred until its more exact status is determined; and
·Risk rated 9 loans are loss loans which are considered uncollectable and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted.

- 83 -

Litigation Matters

In the ordinary course of its operations, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings. Based on the information presently available, and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome in such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the business, or the financial condition, or results of operations of the Company.

Litigation Relating to the StellarOne Acquisition

In a joint press release issued on June 10, 2013, the Company announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement for the acquisition of StellarOne Corporation. The Company closed the acquisition of StellarOne on January 1, 2014. On June 14, 2013, in response to the initial announcement of the definitive merger agreement, Jaclyn Crescente, individually and on behalf of all other StellarOne shareholders, filed a class action complaint against StellarOne, its current directors, StellarOne Bank, and the Company, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia, Charlottesville Division (Case No. 3:13-cv-00021-NKM) (the “District Court”). The complaint alleges that the StellarOne directors breached their fiduciary duties by approving the merger with the Company and that the Company aided and abetted in such breaches of duty. The complaint seeks, among other things, equitable relief and/or money damages in the event that the transaction is completed. StellarOne and the Company believe that the claims are without merit; however, in order to eliminate the expense and uncertainties of further litigation, StellarOne, the Company, and the other defendants have entered into a memorandum of understanding with the plaintiffs in order to settle the litigation. Under the terms of the memorandum of understanding, plaintiffs agree to settle the lawsuit and release the defendants from all claims relating to the acquisition of StellarOne, subject to approval by the District Court. On February 3, 2014, the District Court granted preliminary approval to the memorandum of understanding and to a class action settlement in the case. If the District Court grants final approval, the lawsuit will be dismissed.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company 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 and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized inon the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.Sheets. The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk.

- 89 -
The Company considers credit losses related to off-balance sheet commitments by undergoing a similar process in evaluating losses for loans that are carried on the balance sheet. The Company considers historical loss rates, current economic conditions, risk ratings, and past due status among other factors in the consideration of whether credit losses are inherent in the Company’s off-balance sheet commitments to extend credit. The Company does not expect credit losses arising from off-balance sheet commitments to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers as long as there are no violations of any conditions established in the contracts. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

UMG, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, uses rate lock commitments during the origination process and for loans held for sale. These commitments to sell loans are designed to mitigate UMG’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates in connection with rate lock commitments and loans held for sale. At December 31, 2013, the Company held approximately $2.0 million in loans available for sale in which the related rate lock commitment had expired; accordingly, a valuation adjustment of $94,000 was recorded to properly reflect the lower of cost or market value of these loans. This valuation adjustment was recorded within the mortgage segment; there was a $92,000 valuation adjustment in the prior year.

As of January 1, 2013, the deposit insurance coverage for transaction accounts is up to at least $250,000. The Company had approximately $5.6$15.2 million and $14.7 million in deposits in other financial institutions that were uninsured at December 31, 2013.2016 and 2015, respectively.

counterparties.

For asset/liability management purposes, the Company uses interest rate swap agreements to hedge various exposures or to modify the interest rate characteristics of various balance sheet accounts. See Note 910 “Derivatives” in these “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information.

As disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-Q as of September 30, 2013, UMG has identified errors with respect to disclosures made to certain customers during the period from November 2011 through August 2013 in connection with certain loans originated pursuant to insured loan programs administered by the United States Department of Agriculture and Federal Housing Administration.  These disclosure errors understated to the borrowers the amount of mortgage insurance premiums that were required to be assessed over the life of the loans under guidelines enacted by these loan programs.  The Company has, however, taken certain remedial action with respect to the affected borrowers to address the disclosure errors as permitted under applicable law. Virtually all of these loans were sold to third parties prior to the identification of the errors.  At December 31, 2013, the Company accrued $966,000 for contractual indemnification claims specifically related to these errors in mortgage insurance premium calculations.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company records an indemnification reserve relating to mortgage loans previously sold based on historical statistics and loss rates andrates; as of December 31, 20132016 and 2012,2015, the Company’s indemnification reserve for such mortgage loans was $627,000$379,000 and $446,000,$450,000, respectively.

9.DERIVATIVES

During the second quarter

10. DERIVATIVES
The Company is exposed to economic risks arising from its business operations and uses derivatives primarily to manage risk associated with changing interest rates, and to assist customers with their risk management objectives. The Company designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship (cash flow or fair value hedge). The remaining are classified as free standing derivatives consisting of 2010, thecustomer accommodation loan swaps and interest rate lock commitments that do not qualify for hedge accounting.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company entered into andesignates derivatives as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage exposure to variability in cash flows related to forecasted transactions on variable rate borrowings such as trust preferred capital notes, FHLB borrowings and prime commercial loans. The Company uses interest rate swap agreement (the “trust swap”)agreements as part of the management of interest rate risk. The Company designated the trust swap as a cash flow hedge intended to protect against the variability of cash flows associated with the aforementioned Statutory Trust II preferred capital securities. The trust swap hedges the interest rate risk, wherein the Company receives interest of LIBOR from a counterparty and pays a fixed rate of 3.51% to the same counterparty calculated onits hedging strategy by exchanging a notional amount, of $36.0 million. The termequal to the principal amount of the trust swap is six years with a fixed rate that started June 15, 2011. The trust swap wasborrowings, for fixed-rate interest based on benchmarked interest rates.
All swaps were entered into with a counterpartycounterparties that met the Company’s credit standards and the agreement containsagreements contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Company believes that the credit risk inherent in the contract is not significant. At December 31, 2013,
The terms and conditions of the Company pledged $3.1 million of cash as collateral for the trust swap.

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company entered into eight interest rate swap agreements (the “prime loan swaps”) as part of the management of interest rate risk. The Company designated the prime loan swaps as cash flow hedges intended to protect the Company against the variability in the expected future cash flows on the designated variable rate loan products. The prime loan swaps hedge the underlying cash flows, wherein the Company receives a fixed interest rate ranging from 4.71% to 6.09% from counterpartyvary and pays interest based on the Wall Street Journal prime index, with a spread of up to 1%, to the same counterparty calculated on a notional amount of $100.0 million. Four of the eight prime loan swaps contain floor rates ranging from 4.00% to 5.00%. The term of the prime loan swaps is six years with a fixed rate that started September 17, 2013. The prime loan swaps were entered into with a counterparty that met the Company’s credit standards and the agreement contains collateral provision protecting the at-risk party. The Company believes that the credit risk inherent in the contract is not significant. At December 31, 2013, the Company pledged securities with a market value of $5.7 million as collateral for the prime loan swaps.

Amountsamounts receivable or payable are recognized as accrued under the terms of the agreements. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship on a periodic basis using statistical regression analysis. The Company also measures the ineffectiveness of each hedging relationship using the change in variable cash flows method which compares the cumulative changes in cash flows of the hedging instrument relative to cumulative changes in the hedged item’s cash flows. In accordance with ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging, the Company has designated the previously discussed derivatives as cash flow hedges, with the effective portions of the derivatives’ unrealized gains or losses are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. Based on the Company’s assessment its cash flow hedges are highly effective, but to the extent that any ineffectiveness exists in the hedge relationships, the amounts would be recorded in interest income and interest expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.



103




On June 13, 2016, the Company terminated three interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges prior to their respective maturity dates. The ineffectiveunrealized gain of $1.3 million within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income will be reclassified into earnings over a 3 year period, the term of the hedged item, using the effective interest method. The estimated net amount of gains expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months is $382,000.
Fair Value Hedge
Derivatives are designated as fair value hedges when they are used to manage exposure to changes in the fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities, referred to as the hedged items, which fluctuate in value as a result of movements in interest rates. During the normal course of business, the Company enters into interest rate swaps to convert certain long-term fixed-rate loans to floating rates to hedge the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk. The Company pays a fixed interest rate to the counterparty and receives a floating rate from the same counterparty calculated on the aggregate notional amount. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the aggregate notional amount of the related hedged items was $65.9 million and $61.2 million, respectively, and the fair value of the related hedged items was an unrealized loss of $890,000 and an unrealized gain of $689,000, respectively.
The Company applies hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the fair value hedge and the underlying hedged item, attributable to the risk being hedged, are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses being recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. Statistical regression analysis is used to assess hedge effectiveness, both at inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing basis. The regression analysis involves regressing the periodic change in fair value of the hedging instrument against the periodic changes in fair value of the asset being hedged due to changes in the hedged risk. The Company’s fair value hedges continue to be highly effective and had no material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Income, but if any ineffectiveness exists, portions of the unrealized gains or losses if any, would be recorded in other expense. The Company has assessed the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flowsinterest income and interest expense on the designated hedged item. The Company’s cash flow hedges are deemed to be effective. At December 31, 2013, the fair value of the Company’s cash flow hedges was an unrealized loss of $3.6 million, the amount the Company would have expected to pay if the contract was terminated. The below asset and liability are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Shown below is a summary of the derivatives designated as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2013 and 2012 (dollars in thousands):

Loan Swaps
During the normal course of business, the Company enters into interest rate swap loan relationships (“loan swaps”) with borrowers to meet their financing needs. Upon entering into the loan swaps, the Company enters into offsetting positions with counterpartiesa third party in order to minimize interest rate risk. These back-to-back loan swaps qualify as financial derivatives with fair values as reported in other assets“Other Assets” and other liabilities. Shown below“Other Liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Interest Rate Lock Commitments
During the normal course of business, the Company enters into commitments to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (“rate lock commitments”).  Rate lock commitments on mortgage loans that are intended to be sold in the secondary market are considered to be derivatives.  The period of time between issuance of a summary regarding loan swapcommitment, closing, and sale of the loan generally ranges from 30 to 120 days.  The Company protects itself from changes in interest rates through the use of best efforts forward delivery commitments, whereby the Company commits to sell a loan at the time the borrower commits to an interest rate with the intent that the buyer has assumed interest rate risk on the loan.  The correlation between the rate lock commitments and the best efforts contracts is high due to their similarity.
The market values of rate lock commitments and best efforts forward delivery commitments is not readily ascertainable with precision because rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not actively traded in stand-alone markets.  The Company determines the fair value of rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts by measuring the change in the value of the underlying asset while taking into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close.  The fair value of the rate lock commitments is reported as a component of “Other Assets” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets; the fair value of the Company’s best efforts forward delivery commitments is recorded as a component of “Other Liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Any impact to income is recorded in current period earnings as a component of “Mortgage banking income, net” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Capital resources represent funds, earned or obtained, over which financial institutions can exercise greater or longer control in comparison with deposits and the Bank are subjectborrowed funds. Management seeks to various regulatorymaintain a capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies.structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses, yet allow management to effectively leverage its capital to maximize return to shareholders. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on financial statements of the Company and the subsidiary bank.Bank. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,PCA, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classificationclassifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective actionPCA provisions are not applicable to financial holding companies and bank holding companies, but only to their bank subsidiaries.

- 93 -

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total risk-weighted assets (as defined) and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined) and risk-weighted assets.

As of December 31, 2013,2016, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.PCA. To be categorized as “well-capitalized,” an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage, and common equity Tier 1 ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

In July 2013, the FRB issued a final rule that makes technical changes to its market risk capital rulerules to align itthem with the Basel III regulatory capital framework and meet certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for the final new capital rules require the Company to complybegan on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with the following new minimum capital ratios, effectivefinal rules to be phased in by January 1, 2015: (1) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio2019. Refer to Item 7. – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of 4.5%Financial Condition and Results of risk-weighted assets; (2) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6% of risk-weighted assets (increased from the current requirement of 4%); (3) a total capital ratio of 8% of risk-weighted assets (unchanged from current requirement); and, (4) a leverage ratio of 4% of total assets.

If the new capital ratios described above had been effective as of December 31, 2013, based on management’s interpretation and understanding of the new rules, the Company would have remained “well capitalized” as of such date.

12.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Operations,” section “Capital Resources” in this Form 10-K for additional information.

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows ASC 820,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. This codification clarifies that fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants.

ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect


108



the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 based on these two types of inputs are as follows:

Level 1 Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
   
Level 2 Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the markets.
   
Level 3 Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market. These unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about what market participants would use and information that is reasonably available under the circumstances without undue cost and effort.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

Derivative instruments

As discussed in Note 910 “Derivatives,” the Company records derivative instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company utilizes derivative instruments as part of the management of interest rate risk to modify the repricingre-pricing characteristics of certain portions of the Company’s interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The Company has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for derivatives using standard valuation techniques and therefore classifies such valuations as Level 2. Third party valuations are validated by the Company using Bloomberg Valuation Service’s derivative pricing functions. The Company has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its derivative assets and has considered its own credit risk in the valuation of its derivative liabilities.

During the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into interest rate lock commitments related to the origination of mortgage loans held for sale as well as best effort forward delivery commitments to mitigate interest rate risk; these instruments are recorded at estimated fair value based on the value of the underlying loan, which in turn is based on quoted prices for similar loans in the secondary market. However, this value is adjusted by a pull-through rate which considers the likelihood that the loan in a lock position will ultimately close. The pull-through rate is derived from the Company’s internal data and is adjusted using significant management judgment. The pull-through rate is largely dependent on the loan processing stage that a loan is currently in and the change in prevailing interest rates from the time of the rate lock. As such, interest rate lock commitments are classified as Level 3. An increase in the pull-through rate utilized in the fair value measurement of the interest rate lock commitment derivative will result in positive fair value adjustments while a decrease in the pull-through rate will result in a negative fair value adjustment. The Company’s weighted average pull-through rate was approximately 80% at both December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2016, the interest rate lock commitments are recorded as a component of “Other Assets” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Securities available for sale

Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data (Level 2). If the inputs used to provide the evaluation for certain securities are unobservable and/or there is little, if any, market activity then the security would fall to the lowest level of the hierarchy (Level 3).

The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily valued using fair value measurements that are considered to be Level 2. The Company has contracted with a third party portfolio accounting service vendor for valuation of its securities portfolio. The vendor’s primary source for security valuation is Interactive Data Corporation (“IDC”), which evaluates securities based on market data. IDC utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and include available trade, bid, and other market information. Generally, the methodology includes broker quotes, proprietary models, vast descriptive terms and conditions databases, as well as extensive quality control programs.

The vendor utilizes proprietary valuation matrices for valuing all municipals securities. The initial curves for determining the price, movement, and yield relationships within the municipal matrices are derived from industry benchmark curves or sourced


109



from a municipal trading desk. The securities are further broken down according to issuer, credit support, state of issuance, and rating to incorporate additional spreads to the industry benchmark curves.

The Company primarily uses Bloomberg Valuation Service, an independent information source that draws on quantitative models and market data contributed from over 4,000 market participants, to validate third party valuations. Any material differences between valuation sources are researched by further analyzing the various inputs that are utilized by each pricing source. No material differences were identified during the validation as of December 31, 20132016 and 2012.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

Loans held for sale

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or marketfair value. These loans currently consist of residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, the Company records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments of $363,000 and $0 were recorded on loans held for sale during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded within the mortgage segment and are reported on a separate line item inon the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.
Impaired loans

Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements will not be collected. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Collateral dependent loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is solely from the underlying value of the collateral. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the Company’s collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser using observable market data. When evaluating the fair value, management may discount the appraisal further if, based on their understanding of the market conditions, it is determined the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value (Level 3). For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Level 3 weighted average discounts management applied to the appraised value of collateral related to impaired loans were 1.5% and 7.0%, respectively. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal, of one year or less, if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’s financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Collateral dependent impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan lossesALL are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Other real estate owned

OREO is evaluated for impairment at least quarterly by the Bank’s Special Asset Loan Committee and any necessary write downs to fair values are recorded as impairment and included as a component of noninterest expense. Fair values of OREO are carried at fair value less selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral, or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the


111



fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the foreclosed asset as Level 3 valuation. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Level 3 weighted averages related to OREO were approximately 25.1% and 32.0%, respectively.
Total valuation expenses related to OREO properties for the years ended December 31, 20132016, 2015, 2014 were $1.0 million, $6.0 million, and 2012 were $791,000 and $301,000,$7.6 million, respectively.

ASC 825,Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments for interim periods and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

Cash and cash equivalents

For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Held to Maturity Securities
The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily valued using fair value measurements that are considered to be Level 2. The Company has contracted with a third party portfolio accounting service vendor for valuation of its securities portfolio. The vendor’s primary source for security valuation is IDC, which evaluates securities based on market data. IDC utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and include available trade, bid, and other market information. Generally, the methodology includes broker quotes, proprietary models, vast descriptive terms and conditions databases, as well as extensive quality control programs.
The vendor utilizes proprietary valuation matrices for valuing all municipals securities. The initial curves for determining the price, movement, and yield relationships within the municipal matrices are derived from industry benchmark curves or sourced from a municipal trading desk. The securities are further broken down according to issuer, credit support, state of issuance, and rating to incorporate additional spreads to the industry benchmark curves.
The Company primarily uses Bloomberg Valuation Service, an independent information source that draws on quantitative models and market data contributed from over 4,000 market participants, to validate third party valuations. Any material differences between valuation sources are researched by further analyzing the various inputs that are utilized by each pricing source. No material differences were identified during the validation as of December 31, 2016.

Loans

The fair value of performing loans is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a yield curve that is constructed by adding a loan spread to a market yield curve. Loan spreads are based on spreads currently observed in the market for loans of similar type and structure. Fair value for impaired loans and their respective level within the fair value hierarchy, are described in the previous disclosure related to fair value measurements of assets that are measured on a nonrecurring basis.

Bank owned life insurance
The carrying value of BOLI approximates fair value. The Company records these policies at their cash surrender value, which is estimated using information provided by insurance carriers.
Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Borrowings

The carrying value of the Company’s repurchase agreements is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Other borrowings are discounted using the current yield curve for the same type of borrowing. For borrowings with embedded optionality, a third party source is used to value the instrument. The Company validates all third party valuations for borrowings with optionality using Bloomberg’sBloomberg Valuation Service’s derivative pricing functions.

Accrued interest

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit

The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of loan commitments and standby letters of credit was immaterial.

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.

The Amended and Restated SIP amends the 2011 Plan to, among other things, increase the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock issuable under the plan from 1,000,000 to 2,500,000 and add non-employee directors of the Company and certain subsidiaries, as well as regional advisory boards, as potential participants in the plan. The increase in shares in the Amended and Restated SIP includes shares that had been granted previously under the 2011 Plan.

Stock option awards have a maximum term isof ten years from the date of grantgrant. No stock options have been granted since February 2012. RSAs and vests in equal annual installments of 20%PSUs typically have vesting schedules over a fivethree to four year vesting schedule.

Risk-free interest rate(4)  -   1.24%  2.71%
             
Weighted average fair value per option granted $-  $4.76  $4.31 

(1) Calculated as the ratio of historical dividends paid per share of common stock to the stock price on the date of grant.

(2) Based on the average of the contractual life and vesting schedule for the respective option.

(3) Based on the monthly historical volatility of the Company’s stock price over the expected life of the options.

(4) Based upon the U.S. Treasury bill yield curve, for periods within the contractual life of the option, in effect at the time of grant.

The Amended and Restated SIP permits the granting of nonvested stock but are limited to one-third of the aggregate number of total awards granted. This equity component of compensation is divided between restricted (time-based) stock grants and performance-based stock grants. Generally, the restricted stock vestsawards. Generally, RSAs vest 50% on each of the third and fourth anniversaries from the date of the grant. The performance-based stock is subject to vesting based on achieving certain performance metrics; the grant of performance-based stock is subject to approval by the Company’s Compensation Committee at its sole discretion. The value of the nonvestedrestricted stock awards was calculated by multiplying the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date by the number of shares awarded. Employees have the right to vote the shares and to receive cash or stock dividends (restricted stock),for RSAs, if any, except forany. Nonvested shares of restricted stock are included in the nonvested stock under the performance-based component (performance stock).

17. SEGMENT REPORTING DISCLOSURES
The Company has two reportable segments: a traditional full service community bank segment and a mortgage loan origination business.business segment. The community bank business for 2013segment includes one subsidiary bank, which provides loan, deposit, investment, and trust services to retail and commercial customers throughout its 90114 retail locations in Virginia. The mortgage segment includes one mortgage company,UMG, which provides a variety of mortgage loan products principally in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, and the Washington D.C. metro area. These loans are originated and primarily sold primarily in the secondary market through purchase commitments from investors, which serves to mitigate the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk.

Profit and loss is measured by net income after taxes including realized gains and losses on the Company’s investment portfolio. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Inter-segment transactions are recorded at cost and eliminated as part of the consolidation process.

Both of the Company’s reportable segments are service-based. The mortgage segment’s business is a primarily fee-based business while the bank segment’s is driven principally by net interest income. The bank segment provides a distribution and referral network through its customers for the mortgage loan origination business. The mortgage segment offers a more limited referral network for the bank segment, due largely to the minimal degree of overlapping geographic markets.

segment.

The community bank segment provides the mortgage segment with the short-term funds needed to originate mortgage loans through a warehouse line of credit and charges the mortgage banking segment interest. The interest atrate on the warehouse line of credit was the three month LIBOR rate plus 0.15% with no floor for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the interest rate on the warehouse line of credit was the three month LIBOR rate plus 1.5%, with a floor of 2%.2.0% through May 31, 2014; beginning June 1, 2014, the interest rate was the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.5% with no floor. These transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process.
During 2015, the mortgage segment began originating loans with the intent that they be held for investment purposes. The community bank segment provides the mortgage segment with the long-term funds needed to originate these loans through a long-term funding facility and charges the mortgage segment interest. The interest charged is determined by the community bank segment based on the cost of funds available to the community bank segment for similar durations of the loans being funded by the mortgage segment.
A management fee for operations and administrative support services is charged to all subsidiaries and eliminated in the consolidated totals.

20.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company’s management has evaluated subsequent events through March 11, 2014, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

StellarOne Acquisition

On January 1, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of StellarOne, a bank holding company based in Charlottesville, Virginia, in an all stock transaction. StellarOne’s common shareholders received 0.9739 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for each share of StellarOne’s common stock, resulting in the Company issuing 22,147,874 common shares at a fair value of $549.5 million. As a result of the transaction, StellarOne’s former bank subsidiary, StellarOne Bank, became a wholly owned bank subsidiary of the Company. The Company expects to operate StellarOne Bank as a separate wholly-owned bank subsidiary until May 2014, at which time StellarOne Bank is expected to be merged with and into the Bank. As part of the acquisition plan and cost control efforts, the Company decided to consolidate 13 overlapping bank branches into nearby locations during 2014.  In all cases, customers can use branches within close proximity or continue to use the Bank’s other delivery channels including online and mobile banking as the Company works to retain and reassign employees affected by the branch closures.

The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The following table provides a preliminary assessment of the assets purchased, liabilities assumed, and the consideration transferred (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data):

Preliminary Statement of Net Assets Acquired (at fair value) and consideration transferred:

Fair value of assets acquired:    
Cash and cash equivalents $49,989 
Securities available for sale  460,892 
Loans held for sale  10,922 
Loans  2,239,616 
Bank premise and equipment  80,480 
OREO  4,319 
Core deposit intangible  29,570 
Other assets  95,397 
Total assets $2,971,185 
     
Fair value of liabilities assumed:    
Deposits $2,479,874 
Short-term borrowings  4,227 
Long-term borrowings  118,154 
Subordinated debt  25,543 
Other liabilities  22,576 
Total liabilities $2,650,374 
     
Net identifiable assets acquired $320,811 
Preliminary Goodwill(1)  228,711 
Net assets acquired $549,522 
     
Consideration :    
Company's common shares issued  22,147,874 
Purchase price per share of the Company's common stock(2) $24.81 
Value of Company common stock issued $549,488 
Value of stock options outstanding  34 
Fair value of total consideration transferred $549,522 

(1) - No goodwill is expected to be deductible for federal income tax purposes. The goodwill will be primarily allocated to the community bank segment.

(2) - The value of the shares of common stock exchanged with StellarOne shareholders was based upon the closing price of the Company's common stock at December 31, 2013, the last trading day prior to the date of acquisition.

The estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, presented in the table above, include some amounts that are based on preliminary fair value estimates. The following factors led to certain balances having preliminary fair value estimates:

·The Company engaged third party specialists to assist in valuing certain assets and liabilities and this work (including management’s review and approval) is not yet complete;
·The proximity of the acquisition date (January 1, 2014) and the date that the Company’s financial statements were issued (March 11, 2014); and
·The audit of StellarOne’s opening balance sheet has not been completed.

- 115 -

In many cases, determining the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities required the Company to estimate cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. The most significant of those determinations related to the fair valuation of acquired loans. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and other factors, such as prepayments. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carry-over of StellarOne’s previously established allowance for credit losses.

The acquired loans were divided into loans with evidence of credit quality deterioration which are accounted for under ASC 310-30,Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, (acquired impaired) and loans that do not meet this criteria, which are accounted for under ASC 310-20,Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, (acquired performing). In addition, the loans are further categorized into different loan pools per loan types. The Company determined expected cash flows on the acquired loans based on the best available information at the date of acquisition. If new information is obtained about facts and circumstances about expected cash flows that existed as of the acquisition date, management will adjust accordingly in accordance with accounting for business combinations.

The fair values of the acquired performing loans were $2.1 billion and the fair values of the acquired impaired loans were $137.6 million. The gross contractually required principal and interest payments receivable for acquired performing loans was $2.5 billion. The best estimate of contractual cash flows not expected to be collected related to the acquired performing loans is $35.4 million.

The following table presents the acquired impaired loans receivable at the acquisition date (dollars in thousands):

Contractually required principal and interest payments $204,503 
Nonaccretable difference  (33,853)
Cash flows expected to be collected  170,650 
Accretable difference  (33,046)
Fair value of loans acquired with a deterioration of credit quality $137,604 

The amounts of StellarOne’s revenue and earnings included in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2013, and the revenue and earnings of the combined entity had the acquisition date been January 1, 2012, are presented in the pro forma table below. These results combine the historical results of StellarOne into the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income, and while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2012. In particular, no adjustments have been made to adjust provision for loan losses in 2013 on the acquired loan portfolio and related income taxes. In addition, expenses related to systems conversions and other costs of integration are expected to be recorded during 2014 and those costs will be expensed as incurred. The Company expects to achieve further operating cost savings and other business synergies, including branch closures, as a result of the acquisition which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts below (dollars in thousands):

  Pro forma for the year ended 
  December 31, 
  2013  2012 
  (unaudited)  (unaudited) 
Total revenues(net interest income plus noninterest income) $320,162  $333,684 
Net income $56,223  $57,809 

Other Subsequent Events

On January 9, 2013, the Bank finalized a forbearance agreement with a borrower in which the Bank acquired 190,152.5 shares of common stock of Virginia National Bankshares Corporation (formerly Virginia National Bank), a national banking association, with an aggregate value of approximately $2.6 million in partial settlement of certain debt owed to the Bank. The common stock served as collateral securing loans made by the Bank to the borrower. On March 6, 2014 the Bank entered into an agreement to sell all of the above-mentioned shares at an aggregate value of $3.8 million. In accordance with the forbearance agreement the proceeds from the sale of the common stock will be applied to the borrower’s contractually obligated loan amount that remains outstanding. The common stock acquired is recorded in Other Assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

On January 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to purchase up to $65.0 million worth of the Company’s common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program is authorized through December 31, 2015.

ITEM 9. - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

During the past two years, there have been no changes in or reportable disagreement with the independent registered public accountants for the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

None.
ITEM 9A. - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, management used2016 using the criteria releasedset forth in 1992Internal Control–Integrated Framework issued by the COSOCommittee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control - Integrated Framework.(“COSO”) (2013 framework). Based on the assessment using those criteria, management concluded that the internal control over financial reporting was effective as ofon December 31, 2013. On May 14, 2013, the COSO issued a revised version of the Framework which will supersede the original Framework at the end of 2014. The Company does not anticipate any change in internal control effectiveness during transition to the new framework during 2014.

2016.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20132016 has been audited by Yount, HydeErnst & Barbour, P.C.,Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm which also audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Yount, HydeErnst & Barbour, P.C.’sYoung’s attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting appears on pages 55 through 56 hereof.

is included in Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There was no change in the internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarteryear ended December 31, 20132016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
